A SOUTH GEORGIA FAIR.
Suggestion From Liberty That One
should BE Held Here.

From the Liberty County Herald.
Why is il that Savannah cannot have
a South Georgia fair next fall? We think
it could be made a success. There is not
a county in South Georgia that would not
take an interest and place something on
exhibition Liberty county has many
things that would and could be exhibited
to advantage. Let the merchants and bus
mess men of that splendid city arouse
themselves TO the opportunities that
awaits them There are many thousands
of dollars worth of additional business
that can be had by judicious advertising
and one of the best means of procuring
this additional business is in a South
GEORGIA fair.
