Clamor For State Aid To County Fairs In Iowa
County News reports demand for state appropriation under a new bill enabling fairs to receive up to 80 percent of the first 1000 in cash premiums, 70 percent of the second 1000, 69 percent of the third 1000, and 40 percent beyond 3000, capped at 6000 per year. Reports warn failing to file by November 1 reduces the sum by 100. Sworn statements must be filed with the state secretary. The piece also notes Game Warden Albert's data on license revenues and fishery earnings, hatchery activity at Spirit Lake and Lansing, and planned new hatcheries at Clear Lake and Lamont. It mentions large numbers of fish stocked and rice sowing to protect waters, and details on the state game farm near Clive. Local society notes mention Mrs. Myra Gray’s visit, the Kensington Club, and A. J. Grover’s trip to Clermont, with a Legion meeting planned for City Hall tomorrow evening.
