						Logan 
						County was well represented at the Illinois State Fair 
						this week by several young people showing their 
						projects. 
						 
						In the annual Sale of Champions, Ella Bobell, pictured 
						here showing a barrow at the Logan County Fair on August 
						3rd, sold her Land of Lincoln Grand Champion Barrow for 
						a whopping $18,000. The Bayer Corporation purchased the 
						barrow. 
						 
						Congratulations to Ella and all the other Logan County 
						youth who performed well at the Illinois State Fair!
