It will be recalled that the city council and the board of education did not feel justified last ring in spending the money to engage a supervisor for the war garden work. They telt that the" best results obtainable were not commensurate with the outlay of money involved.

So while' they recognize the desirability of stimulating production of foodstuffs, they did not connider it a good business proposi tion, to spend so much money for nfceosnrlly limited returns. Accordingly there was no unified plan for war garden work this Bummer. The Business club had, however, offered' cash prizes for poultry and the children had been promised an exhibit. Mrs. Olson agreed that good faith' must be keot with them, or they would ln'k confidence another year, if a further venture were made.

The little' fair was therefore decided on at a recent meetihk held in E.W. Martin's office, the countv agent W. F. Kumlien being The affair was held In ihe music room at the Central school building It had been tastily decorated with green streamers and American flags. The exhibits were arranged on two long tobies, while the poultry cages were lined up along the wall.

Considering the efforts necessary to raise produce in this hill country, the exhibits was indeed remarkable. Many of the specimens have sufficient merit for the county fair. Mr. Kumlien who helped conduct the event, stated that this was the best exhibit in the county so far. He was very profuse in his praise for all con cerned with the exhibit.

The winners, if they complete their note book showing cost, expenditures, net profits, etc. will be awarded achievement buttons later. Their ex hibits are eligible now for the county fair to be held at Spearflsh. No money prize had been offered for ducks, but Inasmuch as some pupils produced good specimens. It was felt that they deserve recognition.

Mayor Vincent Interested himself in the matter. He said to Dr. Howe, who was also present, "I subscribed $2.00 for this, you give $1.75 And presto! there were the three prizes for ducks, $1.00, 50c and 25c and three additional happy youngsters. For the vegetables no money prizes were offered, but blue, red and white ribbons for first, second and third places respectively. The following are the awards for the exhibits.
