THE FARMERS’ FAIR.
How It Will Appear to the Vis-
On No. 13-14,' Old Beaver Field
will present to the visitor a number
of interesting educational and
amusing features.
After passing through the gates
of welcome, the first object which
receives the visitor’s inspection trill
be tent “A" which will contain the
Agronomy ' exhibit of high educa
tional value, the corn show, grange
exhibits and other-interesting fea
(tures. Next in line on the right
ide of the field is tent “B” in
\\ hich will be found demonstra
tions of modem housekeeping in
all its phases, 'a model garden, dem
onstrations lof the numerous
branches of forestry, and also sam
ples of the learning of all ages, ex
hibited by the , School of Liberal
Arts.
As our visitor emerges from
this tent he will be confronted by
tent “C” in which will be placed
in a most attractive manner all the
(articles a normal appetite could de
sire including numerous confec
tions, ice cream, sandwiches and
coffee. 1
Having satisfied the inner man,
he will next ifispect tent “D’ where
in will be foiinij representatives of
'the highest type of livestock of all
classes, and i in tent “E”, -the nexf
in 01 der, will be housed ‘the horse
show which'will be.the-center .of
atti action for all lovers of horses.
Passing still; further .down the
“Pike” be will next be attracted
by the highly educational exhibit
staged by the Dairy Husbandry De
partment illustrating . the methods
and equipment used in modem
dairying, together with typical rep
resentatives of the leading breeds
of dairy cattle.
, Having satisfied his desire for
the educational and after further
appeasing his appetite at the Dairy
Refreshment Stand, he will be in
an'excellent mood to be entertain
ed. At this critical moment there
will come to his ears the music of
the vaudeville show in tent “F” and
he proceeds thence to enjoy a good
twenty-minute laugh.
Our visitor then crosses to the
other side of the field and watches
with amazement the latest develop
ment in “New Fangled Fanning.”
Furthermore, while passing “Maud
the Kicking Mule,” and being thor
oughly instilled with the spirit of
the day, he will test his "throwing
arm” and having varied success
will in turn attempt to destroy the
“Babies” and Monkeys” and will
no doubt leave with a pocket full
of cigars.
The next attraction is a series
of fifteen-minute vaudeville acts
complete and amusing in itself, and
having viewed as many of these as
he desires, he will “take in” the rest
of the amusements and after win
ning a pound box of chocolates at
the “Wheel of Fortune,” listening
to a few selections by the Farmers’
Band, and purchasing his chrysan
themum, he will pass on to the Hor
ticultuie Building and inspect the
exhibits of that department, includ
ing fruit, flower and vegetable
shows. The tour completed, our
visitor, now a broader and happier
man, starts out to see what else the
college has in store for him.
