STATE FAIR ASSOCIATIONS
 ASK FOR APPROPRIATIONS

t,cipata ,,non an agreed pro rata division but it being necfssary tv publish the intention of making the application. the Alabama Agricuiturai Association took the initiative.
 since the publication and presen- tation of the bill, conferences have been arranged and held, and satisfac- tory arrangements have been agreed upon.
 sIt was never contemplated the en- fire apropriation should De made Tor the Alabama Agricultural Associatton alone, and there having been some con fusion In the minds or memDers M both branches of the Legislature. this ex xpIanation is made to dispel any erro- neous Impression. .s.
 gro be entirely candid we ask the State to appropriate s17,0oo to be paid in prerniums for exhibits at the Fair of tho Alabama Agricultural Associa- tion at Montgomery, Ala; $lI,ooo 70 oe paid in premiums for exninits at .he State Fair in Birmingham; ss.ooo 10 pc apptopriated for premiums at the Fair of the Central Alabama Fair Associa- tion. and 5000 to be paid in premiums at the Fair of the Tennessee Faiiey Fair Association This aggregates the amount asked for by the Alabama Agri- cultural Association of $50,00o.
 Benefit To Farming Interest.
 s.rhe Alabama Agricultural Associa- ton was organized for the prime pu, pose of being of the greatest possinIc beneft to the agricultural interests ot our great state, and 1t is fair to assume that such was the purpose of the otner Associations However, in presenting this batter to you, we shall conhne our selves to the motives prompting us' and presume those present represent ing similar organizations. will ike wise present their claims on the same basis. - ..a
 MT. vandlver told the committee tn, history of the Alabama Agricui.uIa.. Association, and referred 10 tne success of the first fair held at Vanoi- yer Park last fall. He then entered plea, asking that the State take hano in the work of the Association TOT the advancement of agricultural ana nve- stock interests. He dwelt on tnis phsse for several minutes and then re- ferred to the action taken oy otner States in this direction.
 ,aTt is absolutely important" saio Mfr. yandiver in conclusion, that you should act as promptly as possiDie on this bill, as the time is at hand now when we should issue our premum lists. Tn case the Legislature snou,u take a recess and meet again as early as Juna or July, 1t would then De i'm nossibIe to secure the attractive exhib- its we should have and will get, pre- yided the premiums are sunfcientiy large to encourage the enort. We therefore beg that you VIII give the bill prompt attention"
 MT. yandiver was followed by E. g. Starr of Selma who spoke at length along the same lines. The Committee then adjourned.
