The FAIR OF 1910. AS announced last week
the trustees of the Waldo County Agricultural
Society here decided to hold the 1910 fair on
August 10Th, 18th and 18th This decision was
not arrived at until many arguments had been
advanced, pro and con. 1t would not of course
be as good time year as later for securing
fruit and vegetable exhibits, but in other re-
spects it is thought that the change would be
advantageous, that better field of horses
could be secured and that the summer visitors
who leave for their homes early in September,
would increase the attendance. While the
days selected come within the week of the
campmeeting at Northport it is thought that
will increase rather than decrease the atten-
dance at the fair. 1t was decided to build a
large dining hall on the grounds and the matter
was left in the hands of Capt. j. W. Jones, who
will report at the next meeting Certificates
of membership were issued to James Aborn
Leslie P. Miller, Harry Colby and W. H.
Staples.
