The District Fair,

The outlook Tuesday at the fair
grounds gave promise ola successful
fair. A light rain the night before
had laid the dust and we found it
decidedly cool and pleasant. The old
arch of "Welcome" Of two years ago
was there. as also was the ;nnumera-
BILE catel,-panny shows, wheels Of for
tune, booths and stands. Entries in
all departments were coming in rap
idly and enough had been made to
satisfy the most exacting that in this
respect the fair wonli be no failure.
In cattle, hogs and sheep the display
is far better than ever before, the en-
tries being away ahead and the stock
much finer in appearance. In the
agricultural department the showing
was not 80 good; although in fruits it
was much better than we had antici-
pated. In fine art hall the entries had
not been classified and arranged to the
best advantage and not before We'd
nosday forenoon was this department
as it should be. Enough had been
done however to show that there
would be good display. In the ma
chinery department. we noticed that
Roach & Wood of lola were, to use
a slang phrase, "Boss." And their
showing was good one. Poultry
was about the same az last year. In
the entries for the races were some
noted flyers, and it is reasonably GER
tain that in this respect the fair will
not be behind that of previous years.
The management were all on the
ground and doing all in their power to
push things forward. To-day and to-
morrow is your last chance and all
should go who could.
