The Old Fashioned County Fair

Some of the newspapers throughout
the state located in counties which do
not have annual agricultural fairs are
agitating for more of these county
fairs. So far as We are concerned
while Montour county has no fair we
are perfectly content. Agricultural
fairs are misnamed. They are most
iy gambling affairs, with hoIsr-rariug
~ side attraction Sweat boards aud
wheels of fortune crowd the entrance
and main thoroughfarcs while tine lit

stimulated and educated the farmer In

and the modern institution that has
taken its place Is school of vice.
From fair of this sort each county
