Of the many attractive exhibits that are to be seen at the fair next week the Hemingray Glass Co. promises to be in the front rank. The report came from the factory last night to the effect that a fruit jar six feet high and four feet across has been molded at this factory out of glass, and will be placed in the booth. Its capacity is measured by the barrel. If filled with water, the contents of the jar would fill twenty barrels.
