«AIISAS STA·T£ FAIR HUTCHINSON SEPTEMBER I 0 TO 17, 191 0 I INCLUSIVE, 'I I The exponent of the progress and growth of the great southwest I

The New Grounds are being fitted at an expense of $60,000.00 to make this great Fair, located in the center of the state, worthy of its patronage. The grounds w11l be ready on time. From reservations of stalls and pens and concesslon spaces outside and' inside of buildings and also space in ma­ chinery department, it promises beyond a doubt that the 1910 Fair w1ll excel any of the previous successes. The gates of Hutchinson swing inward for the throngs from all directions who will take advantage of the opportunity afforded for a week's outing of pleasure. entertainment and edification. $40,000 in Premiums II Is brtnglng the greatest agricultural and Uve'stock exhibit as well as collateral features that was ever promoted in this state. Competition at this Fair is open to the world. It wUl represent the best there is in every Une of the varied industries which our people pursue. To visit and study it for a . week amounts to a liberal education. No one, regardless of what his or her bualness may be, can afford to miss it. All people learn more from what they see and hear than trom any other educatior.al method. The comparison of the exhibits representing the best In an)' class from the ·texti1e fabrics to the Shorthorn division is educational. It Is especially beneficial to the young because It shows them the ideal and teaches them to aspire to produce the best, not only because it is honorable, but because it is the most profitable. The Racing Wm be of the highest class. The Futurity Colt stakes for $5,000.00 waa secured for a feature of this Fair at an expense of $1,570. These races, a trot ]' and a pace for two-year-olds for $5,000.00, are the first futurities ever proMoted by a Fair Circuit in the United States. Flfty·five colts are paid up and ready :lor the test of speed. They represent the richest blood of the great southwest. There will be three great. harness horse races every after- noon and also four running races. The running races this year wUl be conducted under the rules of the Central Jockey Club with P. A. Brady of St. .;.- Louis as Presiding Judge, Arthur McKnight of Kansas City as Starter, and Dr. A. )..::.• Flowers of Dallas, Texas, as Manager of the Races and Racing Secretary. 'I'he races will be conducted with the jockeys In uniform and a parade precedes each race. The thoroughbreds that will be bere will out- class anything ever before entered in the races In this state. They come from vartous sections of the great central west, from breeding f::.rms where they breed the best. This is a new feature of the Fair here and really introduces the thoroughbred into Kansas properly for the first time. The Automobile Show

. . I Wlll be worthy of the attention of every one interested in fast going vehicles. The entries are being made by the strongest and most representative firms doing business in this section. Seven out of every eight men who will buy automobiles in the great southwest during the next. year or two will I'l be vlsttors to this show. A new bldldlng is just now being constructed to properly care for tbis magnificent exhibit. Never beiore have the people had such an opportunity of seeing up-to-date farm implements and machinery. The great manufacturers are In I', keen competltlon to present the best and they wi11 be present here in greater numbers than ever before. Already practically all the ground space that is devoted to this .great feature of the Fair has been taken and it will afford an unprecedented opportunity to see and study the best .the Inven­ tive genius of this country has produced. The tractors alone will be worth your tin:e and trouble. On Friday forenoon the parade of prtze-wlnners will occur and every one should be present and take a free seat in the grandstand to witness It. This has clime to be one of the popular features of the entire week. Patterson's Great Carnival

The greatest mustc organization now touring America will be with us five days. ON SUNDAY afternoon and evening they w111 play their opening No sacred music was ever heard than this Band w111 make on this occasion. The order on the grounds will be in perfect accord concerts. grander ' with the (lay and perfectly quiet during these concerts. Other Bands From Other Places

To the end that the new Liberal Arts Building may be made most attractive, we urged the ladies to make their entries in the various departments at an earl! date.
