Mr. Goodwin is but one of a number
of experts whom Mr. Stinson, himself
a technical man (former professor
of horticulture at the University of
Arkansas), has induced to manage de-
partments. P. M. Brandt, assistant to
the dean of the State Agricultural
College, Columbia, Mo., is superin-
tendent of the Cattle Department of
the fair and Is planning what the of-
ficers of the fair believe will prove
one of the finest dairy cattle shows
in the history of the country. Four
herds of Ayershire cattle alone have
been promised. The other breeds to
be exhibited are the Guernsey, the
Holstein and the Jersey.

his cotton crop when the hail des-

.by the good rain, and escaped the
hail. What is clouds today
