This photograph shows a woman and children from Harbaugh School, District 44, at the Marshall County Fair in Marshall County, Kansas. The children, each wearing "sunflower" headbands, are holding field crops and vegetables. Two girls are holding a sign which reads "What Kansas Grows." Also visible in the background are buildings and parked cars. All of the rural school districts had a float or entry in a parade at the Marshall County Fair every year.
