Due to the war and postwar difficulties, it has been nine long years since the richest agricultur- al area in all Canada has had a chance to proudly display the pro- ducts of her farms and factories at Western Fair. However, ab- sence has made the heart grow fonder, and it is now Old Home Week at London's Queens Park, The Fair possesses that "new look" as a result of a $200,000 expenditure in refurbishing and painting of buildings. The Man- ufacturers and Confederation Buildings have new mastic floor- ing which is easyon tired feet and new color scemes that are easy on the eye. Great care and thought has been given to the Agricultural prize list which has been increased by one-third, and now stands at over $40,000, the largest in the history of the exhibition. This increase has been evenly distributed through all classes of livestoek and grain, and will undoubtedly result in the finest classes and keenest competition the Fair has ever known.
