Largest Crowd of Week to Fair.
Columbia day and Jersey day
brought out the largest crowd that
has attended the Maury county fair
this week. The crowd came very
largely from the country in the morn
ing, but was supplemented by con-
siderable portion of the city popula-
ton in the afternoon. 1t is probable
that there were altogether close to
5000 people within the grounds dur
ing the day. The crowd vas not only
the largest of the week but 1t was the
most enthusiastic. The folks came to
see and they were very appreciative.
The Jersey display would have
pleased the eye of the original pro-
genitor Of the Jersey breed right
from the Isle of Jersey had he been
here. 1t was a display that was dis
tinctly creditable to Maury county.
The finest of the fawn cclored stock
that have made famous one of the
smallest areas of the worlds surface
were shown. They had been well
groomed and were the very finest
specimens to be found in this State
of Tennessee. They showed their
proud lineage, their careful keep, and
the splendid effects Of the air, the
grass and the limestone Of this favor
ed section. s,s
The display was not only classy.
but it was large and would have done
credit to the state fair. There were
about dozen exhibitors from various
portions Of the county, and the judges
were up against it ..when It came to de-
eide the respective merits OF the sew
eral animals shown.
