direct revenue would be produced

OF the development and prosperity
of this section which would acceur
to the betterment of our citizen
ship collectively as we'll as individ

We desire this year to secure to-.
a much greater extent than has
been possible heretofore the support
and cooperation of the citizens
throughout Western North Carolina
IN making it what the name inn
plies. a western North Carolina fair.
In attempting to do this. we shall
not in any way conflict with or de
tract from any county fair, but in
stead shall seek to earnestly COOP
crate with the several county fair
associations with the hope of rend-
ering service which will increase
this success. With the co-opera-
ton that the movement should re-
ceive each county which under
takes to hold a fair would meet
with unprecedented success; the
Western North Carolina Fair to be
held in Asheville would be of pro-
portions and splendor which would
appeal to the pride of every West
ern North Carolina and the exhibits
could be sent to the state fair at
Raleigh which would receive recoa-
milton of incalculable benefit
Western North Carolina has numer-
Gus products which cannot be ex-
celled, and by placing them in COM
petition with the world we may
feel assured of favorable compari-
son, and the publicity attached to-
such exhibition when done in an
intelligent manner would attract
many desirable investors and stimu-

FOR All WESTERN NORTH CARO-
LIMA.

FOR All WESTERN NORTH CARO-
LIMA.
There are plenty of indications
that the Western North Carolina
Fair is to be conducted on very
much broader lines this year than
heretofore; and that the fair will be
more representative of the whole
of Western North Carolina. The
management is going about the
work of laying the ground work
for the Fair with a great deal of at
tention to detail, but this detail
work has not blinded the manage
ment to the greater issues. After
all, however, it is the successful
working out of the details that
rounds out the whole, and no mat
ter how comprehensive the plans
for the Fair may be, it is really the
details which make the Fair. The
men who have oversight of the
plans and those who are working
out the details have begun working
early and with an energy and judge
ment that promises to make the
fair creditable to the rich section of
which it is an exponent.
Here is the Confession of Faith
|of D. Harris, secretary and treasur-
er of the association:
Western North Carolina for some
TINS pasthas received more appre-
citation consideration, year by year,
by the residents of less favored
sections. Those seeking restoration
of health have found here that
greatest blessing of life; the seekers
of pleasure and recreation have
found the most satisfying enter
tainment, diversion and recupera-
ton; the student of nature has
found scenic grandeur unsurpassed
and the investor has recognized the
enormous wealth vested in the
forests, minerals and other natural
resources. The bounteous endow-
ment by nature, however, it is
not confined to the wondrous eli
matte and scenic conditions and
natural resources. but include in
a marked degree the adaptability
of soil for the production of various
products of unexcelled quality.
Until recent years, the exploita-
ton of this phase of development
has been retarted by reason of con-
ditions which resulted in quite pri-
mitive methods being employed.
Of recent years, however, much i'm
proved methods have been gradu-
ally adopted and it was this ten
dency and the desire to promote
more rapid advancement and pros
perity which inspired the organiza-
ton Of the Western North Carolin a
Fair association.
While a majority of the stock
holders of the association are resi-
dents of Asheville, they are prim-
arily citizens of Western North
Carolina, identified with and inter-
ested in the development of the
entire section. Their subscriptions
to stock in the association were not
