NANTON (ALBERTA) FAIR Racy Report Written By George Geddes, St. Thomas, Ont. Mr. J. B. Trull, a South Dàrling- ton boy, living at Nanton, Alberta, sent us the Nanton News of Octo- ber 26, with a report of the Fal Fair which shows that the West le still wild and woolly on Fair Day accoitding to George Geddes of St. Thomas who tells the story in a racyI style as foilows: "While visiting in the West I had the pleasure of attending a Fair la Nanton, situated under the shadow of t.he Rockies. We had a pleasant thirty-iniqe drive tl*ough a weli- settled, prosperous f arming commun- ity. We arrived about 1 p. m. and the exhibition groixnds were elien alive with people and automobiles by the hundreds. It looked as if the- whole population of the west had gathered at Nanton. Admis- sion was fifty cents, and well worth the price. The first thing in evidence was a large corral or stockade where a large niumber of untamed bronchees and steers were kept for the buck- ing competitions that were to take place. We took a walk throughi exhibition building the first thîng and saw a splendid exhibit of grain, vegetables, ladies' fancy work, can-1 ned goods, and, beautiful filowers. Live stock dîd not eut muclh figure. The principal features of the show were the races; cWl roping, and buckîng competitions. The races were the first on the prograin and were ahl running races on a haîf- mile track, but nearly ail mile heats. Some 200 horses competed, about eveniy divided among Indians, cew- boys and cowgirls as owners. There were Indians galore, and just outside the groundls weke two separate camps of thirty or forty tents each. An open grand stand was decorated with Indian braves, squaws and pap- ooses, ail respiendent in colors that Solomon neyer dreamed of. In-. dians with long ýbraids of jet black hair, Indians with featherson their heads and fancy girdles and skins for clothing, and others very well clnd la ordinalry attire. Indians with faces like stoie, Indian boys ,nd girls, old squaws, and ail appar- ently having a good time, but you would neyer know it fromn the ex- pression of their faces. There were races for the cowboys and for the cowgiris. The latter dressed in regulation cowgirI style, with neat spiit skirts and wide bats, and they sure leoked weli and were ladylike in deportment and everyone treated them la a gentlemanly man- ner. As a usual thing, cowboys andi IndianEý and ranchmen 'in 'generaI Lhave been associated with the coar- ser things of life, but among the many hundreds I mingled with that day, I neyer heard or saw any word or action that could offend la --any way. On the other hand, everyone seemed to be courteous and thought- fui f or the other. Ail the races were running races, and the ladies made it just as interesting as the men and la some cases ran in com- petition with them. Indian boys rode bare back with a rope or sursingie around the horse, and they would slip their feet under this rope to hold themn to the horse. Ia the barrel race two barrels were placed about 100 yards apart, each one 50 yards from the scratch. The horse started from the scratch and headed in opposite directions, had to wheel on the start, go 50 yards,' tura around one barrel from the right and back and around the other bar- rel, cuttiag the figure eight. The circuit was made three times, then finished la iJe centre, and fthere was some jockeying and turning the sharp corners ËTound the barrels, and in one or two cases the horses got tangled in the barrels and lost 50 much time that they were out of the The relay race was a two-miie heat, four times around the truck with-'two horses used. There were about ten entries for this race. Each contestant was allowed a man to hold his spare horse. Hie had to change saddle to the other horse, saddie one horse, ride once around, once around, then change again and repent for the f ourth time round the truck. This was some race, and they sure couid change saddles! t! seemed alimost before the one horse had stopped, the other was on its way. The two closest contestants were a white man and an Indian, the Indian winning by about ten feet on te do their worst, and some of them tried their darndest oü do it, tee. Every once la a while a rider would come a cropper and away would go Mr. Bronche, and very eften w-ouid make a straight charge f or the crowd, whea there wouid be a hurried rush te cover. A couple of weli-mounted cowboys were always on hand, one on either side of the bronche, aud la short order a rua-away was recaptu- red and rua into the côral. A new bronche was used each time. One bronche sîmpiy took a f ew jumps and then roiled over on his rider, but bef ore any harm wasy done the attendants had pinned the herse down and the rider was released without injury. A long, lean, one- armcd rider was among the beet, but la the second try for first place he was threwa and his shoulder ia- jured and he lest eut. There were neted riders there from pretty near- ly ail the Western States, and a num- ber of the best in our own West, and they seemed te be just about as much worried over it as we weuid be over a ride in a tin Lizzie or on a trolley car. The bronche busting, however, was oniy one part of the show, the buck- iag steers was another part. What those steers did put the bron choes eatireîy la the shade. Instead of with a saddîe, the steers were rid- dea bareback with surcingles around them, if the riders wished te use them. They were stockaded like the bronehees, and after the rider was seated they were released and, la addition te the buckling proclivi- ties they possessed, they aise gave vent te a series of terrifying roars- and would toss their heads, shake their long homne, froth at thé mouth, jump up and down, and instead of bringing their four feet down at once and giving a rider one goed jar, they would bring the four al dowa at different times and give the rider four jars. But that wasn't ail, they would hump their backs, swinging their rumps one way and their heads another and produce about twenty motions al la one. Go! They sure had aclear right o! way whea they started. Nebody want- ed a jab with their' boras. They tired eut, howcvcr, sooner than the herses, and were returned te the steekade with the rest of the stock. After the steer bueking came the iassooing and reping the calves. These calves were only a few months old, but when reileased from the cor- ai they would rua like deer and were very elusive. The first haîf dozen horsemen faiîed in their attempts te capture them. A young Indian was firet to catch bis caif and had it nearly roped and was preparing te mount bis pony, when, beheld you, it scampered away from hlm and he .lost eut. I expcýcted te sec better work with the rope, as it was up te either the bucking compétition rid- ing or.±.he ridine la the races. After the various sports, the day wound up with 2 baseball match be- tween Vulean and Nanton, but the game became rather one-sided and before the finish, a sandstorm came up and compieteîy oblitemated the iast two innings and incidentaiiy filled the ears, eyes and nese o! al thé spectators. As it leeked very mueb like a spill from the heavens as weil, people ieft very hurriedly, and the Nanton fair was aà thing of the past. The vast crewd disappear- ed as if by magie.
