In planning for the biggest
day’s recination in 191 G the peo
p’e of the Arkansas Valley, as
they have fof many years past,
made arrangements to come to
Rocky Ford on Watermelon Day
and so get all the enjoyment for
themselves and family that could
well he crowded within the few
short hours of oue day. They
well knew that the comfort and
pleasure we get out of life is about
the only investment that is cer
tain of results, aud so they invest
ed in Watermelon Day at the Ar
kansas Valley Fair, and now
nothing can rob them of tl e
pleasant aud profitable memories
of a day well spent.
All day long and each day of
the fair so far—and it will also bo
the case today—admiring crowds
moved thru the fine arts aud other
buildings, horticultural aud agri
cultural halls and among the well
filled stock pens and stalls. Those
who were here for the first time
were astonished at the displays
iu the various departments aud
were impressed with tho fact
that Colorado is especially strong
in agriculture.
