Inasmuch as Lake county is located along the north shore, between the cities of Milwaukee and Chicago, it naturally receives many of the migrating crowd. In the past, Cook county has been able to hold the population, but with the ever intreasing growth of the metropolitan area, the lines of community development are sbeing flung farther and farther. This county is just starting to absorb them now and as a result its realty value is going up. Pres. Coolidge says business is on the up--grade. Yes, we've still got a lot of steep prices. . _ In its report, the board states that real estate values in this county have shown an increase of $1,755,630 in the past year. In 1925 the value was $35,004,400, while this year the total is $36,760,030. 3 3 Lake county is rapidly becoming a popular residential section.

The event is sched: : for the week of September 27 to October 2=and becomes of county wide importance, substituting in a way for the dis-- continued Lake County Fair. There will be many farm exhibits with the Farm Bureau ¢o--operating. Liberal prizes will serve to inspire competition and interest among the county's farmers and 300 exhibits are already assured.
