Within its Boun are Vast 0pportu.
nities.-.Fine Lands on Which to
Grow Large Staple Crops, F; uits,
Vegetables, .Etc.-.Lend The Fair a
Helping Hand.

The Tri-County Fair at Batesburg,
S. c., covers Lexington, Aiken, Sa-
Iuda and Edgefield counties, in which
are 1918 inhabitants and property
assessed at ss3, ,7s7, ,7e0 90.
The Fair stands for the development
OF what is good in the people, and its
officers have planned for the greatest
gathering Of people, exhibits and at
fractions for 1913 they have ever had.
Within its bounds are vast opportuni-
ties, fine lands on which are grown
large staple crops, fruits and vegeta-
bles- splendid water powers, ideal eli
mate, modern towns, beautiful church
and school buildings and elegant resi-
dences. The people are looking for
the best and have for their motto,
"Upvard ard Onward"
This Fair will let the people know
what goodly land we have, and what
the people are doing and what they
are going to do-thus satisfy ing them
with their lot and inspiring confidence
and hope that nerves them for work
which brings success. The people OF
the North and West are turning their
eyes and thoughts Southward, and
when they attend these fairs consider
it an index of what the county Is.
Every one should do all in his powerto
make the Fair success. Now is the
time to begin planning what you will
bring. We are getting up the pre-
MUM list now, and expect to aistrib-
ute several thoSsa copies in our
own territory and elsewhere in the
State, and beyond, where it is thought
they will do good. In this premium
list will be cuts and writeups of church,
school, residences, business end public
buildings. if those interested will pay
for the actual expense. Every town
should have write up in order that
the public may be fully informed as
to what we have within the bounds of
the Tri-C County Fair Association.
For information about the Fair, or
premium list, write at once to E. G.
