Ideal weather prevailed throughout the week, and if there were any 

 elements which did not operate toward securing a successful fair its im- 

 portance was small. The income for the week was more than $100,000, 

 which breaks the record for the Iowa State Fair and demonstrates that 

 Iowa farmers are enjoying a prosperity which enables them to take an 

 interest in the great educational advantages olTered by this show.
