All of the twenty different depart

Better Bahies contest, the Fair is,
worthy of sincere praise and as a
whole it compares most favorablyy
with the fairs of the older states,
but lack of space prohibits more
than a general description. It would
.sperr advisable, however, in closing
to briefly refer to the great amuse
ment feature of this institution.
The prime object of the State Fair
is to encourage, educate and amuso
(he people We put es.ecinl emphasis
on the amusement teature, 1 lieving
that it is wholly desir .b;e that the
people should have :'n annual holic'ay
week where they may gather and
promote a unity feeling, take pride
in the achievements of the State and
be entertained, since that; which en

each year at the State Fair track,
which is rated as one of the fastest
tracks in America, are. not excelled
at any of the Grand or Western
Circuit meetings and many of the
fastest horses now on the t.irf se

lo $43,000.00. Only three years later,
from May 1st, 1914, to May 1st, 1915,

Nearly or.e thousand carloads of
alfalfa were shipped outside of the
state from Chandler and her sidingsi
Fa If a ;ind Casaba, and over ten
thousand head of beef cattle were
fattenl on alfalfa eluring the fall
and winter.
Five hundred acres of deciduous
fruits have been planted during the
Inst two years, and olives are being

ner which will bring Chandler per
manently into the limelight as a fruit

Valley.
Chandler has electric lights and
power, telephone and an excellent
rural delivery mail service.
Chandler is rapidly developing the
growing ef broom ceirn in Arizona.
