A Neuro State Fair.

A unique state fair was held doWll
in Georgia last week of which we get
Interesting accounts from the southern
napcrS. The fair was originated and
managed wholly by negroes and all the
exhibitors were of the same race.
The papers agree that in every way
was set apart for white people to visit
the fair and they came in large num-
hers. But aside from this, white folks
had absolutely nothing to do with the
enterprise.
The idea of coored state fair
originated with r. r. Wright, a
negro educator of Savannah. a meet
ing Of prominent negroes was called
by Wright last spring and plans mad"
for the holding of an industrial eX-
position. The race wars of the sum-
mer made the plans more difficult of
contamination and the men at the
head were repeatedly urged to aban-
don the scheme for fear Of further
trouble. On the other hand, however,
they were urged to go ahead. White
friends OF the Negro farmers We're in
sistcnt that they be allowed an oppor-
tunity to prove themselves. Gradually
the plans took shape and nntwith-
standing all the difficulties the fair
was an even greater success than
anticipated.
Twenty-Five of the farming counties
Of Georgia were represented in the
agricultural exhibit. An Albany ne
gro. who operates 46 plnWs on hs own
1,6o0-acrc farm. was in charge Ct tn"
department. The agricultural dis
plays We're principally simple sclcc-
tons from the best Of the average
crop Of the farming counties Corn,
cotton, potatoes. peas, cans, oats. hay.
tobacco and other common crops were
displayed in large quantities. The
best individual farm display wen an
award Of 500. A display in agrcul-
tural hall was graccd with Il pile Of
balod cotton branded in large letters:
The Negro and Cotton-the South's
Best Friends"
The exhibits in other departments
were 'eqEnll% varied ana excellent
Barrel exhibits, soda water bottIing,
tinwarc, furniture. clothing. dress
goods and wine products were repre-
scented in the trades departments.
The live stock was considered excel
lent. A Macon paper says:
Fine hogs, cattle and horses com
pris"d all that the negro cared t,
show. But of these three kinds there
were prize winners for any fair. AS
meat producer the Industrious Negro
farmer has unquostionably learned
something for his own good. The
finest breeds of hogs known to raisers
in Georgia are in their possession ana
th' 'AhiiitS revealed tflat the negro
farmer has to a large degree mastered
the meat-producing problem. Horses
and cattle were by no means behind
the live stock exhibits at the average
state fair
Seven negro colleges conducted the
athletic events. The amusement at
fractions were planned exclusively for
the negro. The races were confined
to Georgia raised horses The mule
had his part and the negro mule race
was one of the chief features. The
fair has come to an end and has prov
ed a financial success. notwithstand
ing the obstacles. A stock company
of negroes has been formed and an
nual colored state fairs are to be held.
