COUNTY FAIRS.
Progressive Farmer.)

Preparations should now be made
for the County and District Fairs.
The value of the Fair can hardly be
over-estimated. 1t is one of the best
means to community union, as it fos-
tiers n union of the interest between
towns-people and country people; it
encourages the production of better
crops, better animals, more manufac-
turing, handy work, fine arts, Gull
nary science, fancy work and other
things too numerous to mention.
1t would be found, doubtless, if an
investigation were made, that in the
counties, parishes and districts of the
Southwest, where annual fairs are
held, the people are more prosperous,
neighbors more united, with social
and moral standards higher, then be-
fore fairs were held. The fair has an
influence for better things, not only
in production, but for cooperation
and higher type of progressive cit
izenship.
The fair is the best advertisement
any community can have. 1t teels the
people of the community what they
may accomplish and it shows the
people outside of that district what
is produced, what the citizens stand
for and what the possibilities of such
people may be.
There is no better example of I'M
selfish service than that rendered by
the officials and stockholders of the
various fairs, when the interest of the
community is the object, rather than
profits to stockholders. And it would
be hard to invest for public enterprise
in any better way than the county
or district fair, conducted upon sound
business principles for the benefit OF
the people it serves.
