COUNTY FAIR LARGELY ATTENDED YESTERDAY
Barring the Collapse Of the Large Grand Stand,
the Day Was Great Success. Crowds of the
Past Have Been Larger, But Many People Were
Here. t'

Barring t!.r unf0ltunate collapse of
the EandStaEl yes tertay morning, the
annual LHuT2ns county fair was a
complete success. While the crowd
was lossihy not RS large as previous
years, as MAS 10 tave been expected
on accou!' Of the pnstponemcnt an
immense number Of people were here
from all over the county and adjoining
counties to enjoy the day and to study
the exhibits. The streets and the fair
grounds were crowded all day long
and 1t was not until late in the day did
they leave Tor hame. The exhibits,
taken as whole, equalled those Of
last year and taken individually some
of this year: exhibits were much su-
perlcr to these of last year. For in
stance, The ratIl, exhibits, the agri-
cultural exhibits, and the swine ex-
hibita were eli better than last year.
The poultry AM sheep departments
showed Slight falling off. The ring
exhibits We're in many respects equal
to aud snrerlC! t. past exhibits and
taken as wEo'e were very creditable.
OF unusual quality this year was the
agricultural dena,tme Here were
gathere tOFe:ier rs fine specimens of
vegetables ard other edibles as could
be desired by the most fastidious. OF
particular merit were the exhibits of
peas, potatoes, turnips and peanuts
The cleaned peas were pronounced as
being as pretty as any seen at any Of
the. larger state fairs. Here also were
several fine pumpkins, watermelons
and other like articles. Taken as
whole, the exhibit Of table products
was very commcndable and went far
to prove the claim that the Laurens
county farmer can live at home if lie
wills to.
