State and County Fairs.
To tie Editor of The -IEgis Dc Intelliqence

10 NE EdttoF o. me Z1tgtS d Intenagencer:
SIR: l heartily endorse the views ex-
pressed by you in THE 1Hgis of November
10Th, in relation to Safe and County Fairs
1t Is plain enough that the annual State fair
can never attract large number of visitors
when rival fairs are held in so many of the
counties, because very few can afford the
time and expense necessary to attend both,
and consequently the county fairs are pat
ronized and the State exhibition suffered to
anguish Besides, such q State fair rs you
suggest, once in four of five years, would
enable counties not favored with agricultur-
al societies to exhibit their choice stock, &c.,
in competition with their sister counties and
in manner well calculated to display their
peculiar resources and attractiveness. 1t is
the common experience Of all county agri
cultural societies, that after time the inter.
est in them dies out, and they drag ont q sick
~ existence, unless aided by the State The
intermission of the county fairs, once in five
years, would be relief to the directors, who
serve without pay, and would doubtless give
fresh impetus to the succeeding annual
county fairs. Your suggestion, if carried
out, would tend, believe, to keep up that
interest. | can see no objections to the
plan, but there may be some, and if
any exist, l would like to hear them AT
any rate the subject is worth discussing.
