Was it creditable, yes, did it
wake us up to realization OF
our latent resources Lets see
but wait, did our male pop
ulation do it all. Lets enter
the Woman S building. How can
we justly describe it, to do abso-
lutte justice to our local woman
hood. We endeavored Friday
morning to 90 through the beautl
full building and jot down each ex-
hibit and the name of each ex-
hibitor, but it was impossible.
The best we can do is to say that
those who fail to visit this build
ing will miss one of the best fea-
lures Of the Fair.
Going over to the beef and
dairy stock building is a revela-
ton; hardly any of us supposed
that Iberia, possessed such ami
mails, the Fair Association frank
ly admit that the quality and
quantity of stock entered fairly
swamped them, here too we cannot
go into particulars. Did any one
OF you miss the Swine show where
those 900 ID. beauties were
placedY Did we ever expect to ad
NIT to ourselves that, a hu. was a
thing of beautyq BE that true or
not.
Those who were fortunate
enough to closely observe these,
evidences Of Iberia S intelligent
efforts to get abreast of the time
went back home with spirit of
emulation which we feel perfect
ly safe in saying next years re-
suits will clearly prove.
The Silo built jointly by The
Renoudet Lumber Co., Dallas &
Bertram and p. A. Landry is an
exhibit well worth your attention
Crossing the street, let enter
the Agricultural building. Here
too, is it impossible for us to
enlmerate each marvellous ex-
hlblt, but we hope. all of Us after
passing through this splendid evil
dence OF our farmers, intelligent
advancement went back home. de-
termined to do likewise. For
after all, isn't our farmer the
backbone Of our prosperityY
The Farm and Dairy Machinery
building is well worth while, the
exhibits of Dallas & Bertram
those of the New Iberia Hard
Hardware CO., The Imperial Fur
nlture CO., the Bertrand Lumber
20. and many others, which we
had to overlook because our edi-
ton had to be printed.
The chicken exhibit, probably
more representative of local
achievement, than any other is a
revelation. 800 birds were ex-
pected, 500 are on exhibition and
believe us dear friends, they are
laying for us, and thank goodness,
they are going to keep on doing
In ever increasing numbers.
To sum up, The Teche Fair.
taken from every angle, is the
best effort iberia has ever made.
It's opened our eyes, to what we
can really do and what we can
easily make of orr garden spot
OF the universe, thing of beauty
and jov forever.
