WOULD ROB THE GLORY OF SMALL

Fascinated as they are by the agri-

vermonters will think twice before they
acquiesce in the proposition Of President
Maxwell Evarts Of the state fair COM

grandizement OF the exhibit ct White
River Junction. The state fair idea had
a stormy time Of 1t as 1t was last ses-
sion, getting through only on the stipu-
lation that the state should nof be asked
to father the project to the extent of
putting in large appropriation each
year.
This opposition was due largely TO
the protest on the part Of many who
indirectly represented private fair asso-
Citations, that it would be doing an in
Justice to the smaller fairs. There was
perhaps more or less of selfish motive
in this kind Of opposition; but over and

programs which they are able to mus

If the state fair gets large appro-
priation each year 1t can, by means OF
it, lure away much of the patronage
from the other exhibitions and thus
cause their decline in a short time Then
the glories Of the country fair win have
faded into memories, to give place to a
mammoth exhibition, where the modest
efforts OF the small farmer would have
no place.
