Fisherman & farmer. [volume] (Edenton, N.C.) 1887-19??, 1891-09-25
EDENTON, Sept. 25, 1891.

the approach Of the coming autumn,
the tell tale fairy-like season of the
year, when the heat and hustle of
the summer months are over, when
the wages of the toiler in the soil are
due and about to be paid, whereby
his dreams of plenty are oft times
more than to be fulfilled
Autumn is the abiding place ofthe
Agricultural Fair, becau,e it is the
season when man, stimulated in hope
to gain the prize which acclaims the
distinction the winner has achieved,
or to be named among those who are
ambitious to excel, proud Of the sue
cess he has won In another year of
grace, and in praise of that kind
providence that has so benefcently
smiled upon his efforts, makes his
annual offering, and spreads before
the eyes Of his brethren the choice
or all the products Of his fields and
focks, unveiles to public gaze the
inventions he has wrought, showing
the wonderful mastery he has gained
over natures rude methods, and by
which the stubborn hardships of toll
have been made to yield to labor-con-
quering and care.Iightening nipple
ments and machines.
The ideal of the American fair is
to bring into the arena together in
kindred clusters, all the notable
productions and inventions of the
year, where they may be quickly
seen, a correct judgement of their
merits formed, and from which pro-
ducers will be melted to improve
ment and emulation in the future.
So, too, by their examination and by
comparison, the work of inventive
genius may be studied, the achieve
ments Of art may be contemplated,
and the magnificent realizations for
world-famed indomitable industry
may be known. Thus, fairs become
bazaar of what labor, skill and
patience have done, and mile stones
that serve as emblems to portray the
annual progress that comes to US in
art and science, mechanical genius
and agricultural pursuits.
We want the whole country to feel
that they have local inte rest in the
sHccess Of our fair, and with freedom,
and pride, contribute literally of the
best of all they have that will lend
an interest to the exhibition. 1t is
strongly noticeable that where fairs
are most literally patronized and
male the most Interesting, improve
ments in agricultural condition
have been the most rapid and mark
ed, and the general prosperity Of the
FARMING and industrial community is
most observable. This proves that
the interests of farmers and the lab.
orine classes are Identical with those
OF the fairs, and that they cannot
profitably stay away from or ignore
these exhibitions.
Tue agriculture of to-day stands
upon broad and deep foundations,
and one of the most potent factors
in bringing it to this state of excell-
ence, and to be relied upon for it's
continuance and further progress,
has been these fairs. But they are
not partial to any class OF people.
They are everybody's institutions.
The opportunities for sight seeing
aud friend meeting give them a
pleasant attractiveness to every body,
and all are invited to come and enjoy
the fruits Of the labor the managers
expanding in an attempt to make this

fine set Bedroom Furniture to be presented
absolutely free to the most popular me-
chanic in Savannah, the only requirements
being that candidates be bono.fde me-

suit is that one clerk is kept busy register

No charge is made for voting, and those
who 60 in to vote are under no obligation
to buy anything. The contest ends with
