FAIR COMMITTEE MEETS
Fair Will Last Three Days and All
Premiums Will be Paid in Cash
as Soon as Awarded.


The chairman of the county fai
committee and a few other member
met in the office of Judge G. P. Burn
ett Saturday and transacted some busl
ness looking to final arrangements TO
the fair that Will commence Septembe
80 and continue for three days.
FISRT DAY.
The first day will be Domestic
Science Day and all entries must bt
made before 10 a. m. the first day.
The exhibit will be in the High School
building, the same as last year. The
Judges will begin their work as soon as
entries close.
SECOND DAY.
The second day will be Agricultural
and Trade Day. All entries must be
made by 10 a. m. the morning OF the
second day and may be made any time
previous to that day. Judging will
commence as soon as entries close.
The idea of the trade feature of the
second day is for the people to bring
any article they may have for sale or
exchange to the fair on that day and
offer it for sale or exchange. The
Chronicle will make special rate on
advertising for the benefit of Trade
Day. If you. wish to let the people
know that you will have certain
thing at the fair on Trade Day for sale
or exchange, you can tell them through
the columns of the Chronicle for half
q cent word each week. Our usual
rate is one cent word each week. 1t
your ad is carefully worded you can
tell of many articles In few words.
If farmers generally will let each
other know that they will have certain
things for sale or exchange, many
person will kbe able to either convert
articles, that are of little or no use to,
them. into cash or exchange them tor
some other article that they need.
The expense for letting the people,
know what you have will be very small.
LIVE STOCK DAY
Saturday, the last day of the fair,
will be Live Stock day and all entries
must be made not later than 10 a. m,
that day. The indications now point to
a splendid exhibit of live stock, far
greater than last year. There Will be
animals here from other counties and
there will very likely be much trading
done that will be profitable to all con-
cerned.
RULES ADOPTED.
The tair committee has adopted very
few rules and those that have been
adopted are very easy to comply with.
The First Rule is: All entries must
be made IN the name of the real owner.
second, Age of live stock must be
given when entered.
One feature has been decided upon |
that will be real convenience to the |
and save the treasurer much |
trouble, that is: All premiums will be
paid in cash as soon as awarded. The
" inner of the premium will be given a !
slip of paper setting out the grade OF
his premium, the article and the
due. The holder of the slip
can &c to the treasurer and get the
cash at once.
Every indication points to the fair
being rousing success as the people
are making preparations to show
large and varied amount of stuff. The
Premium List will be gotten out just
Is soon as possible. The work is being
lone at the Chronicle Office and we
rope to complete it this week, but can
1ot be sure. The premium lists will be
:or free distribution and any person
Who wishes one can get it by calling
It the Chronicle office, but as the num- -
Der IS limited people should not expect
lie to be given to every citizen in the
county. The order number is Only 500,
,ut that should give list to most peo
,le who are interested in the fair
nough to wish to make an exhibit. Il
