The club I don't think would go back next year. They say we want to go where we are wanted. The fair board knew back in Feb of 15, yes a year ago what the club responce would be as at that time they were demanding $20 a day for the 3 days for the show and were told in no way would the club go along with making the workers pay to put on show. The fairboard gave in then now this year they are demanding the workers pay $25 per day for 7 days for total time of show and swap meet even if worker would only be there for show and not swap meet. Not having a show will not hurt the club very much. The ones it will hurt is the community including the 4H kids that the club spent a lot of money buying their projects and then turned around and gave the project at times back to the kids, Then the downtown merchants that say those days are some of the best days they have in the year. And the fairboard was getting a 3% raise in rent per year. And in direct costs to fairboard they did not have probably $500 and to stand to loose thousands so can go back to county comminsiors that own the grounds and ask for more subidasys to cover the loss of income so it will cost the tax payers more in the end. I think there are some members of the fairboard that don't realize the food has to come from the farmer for the grocery to get it. And some would like to turn the fair into a complete carnival and get rid of everything else. If the club can find a location to have a show this year I will post time and location. A few years ago some of the other fairgrounds around were trying to get the club to move there but the club hated to move from where the show was started and people knew where it was. And every year we had people from about 10 states and Canada.

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
