Tufts Outlines Fair Ground Needs.
Mr.. Leonard Tufts, the new presi
dent of the North Carolina State Fair
has got in touch with the organization
The keen interest that he took in mat
tiers and the quick manner in which,
after an inspection of the grounds and
buildings, he spoke of the needs of the
association indicated that under his
leadership the secretary and other pro-
gress1ve men of the association are
going to improve the ground and lift
the association to a decidedly higher
plane
President Tufts gave the following
as the needs as he saw conditions:
More and larger buildings and for
uniform design and construction of
these buildings. And in order to carry
out this suggestion he suggested the
employment of a landscape artist to
buildings in order that when complet-
ed all would present a harmonious
whole
That the grounds should be adorn-
ed and beautified with shrubbery and
in this connection he suggested that
the society ask the authorities of the
A. and M. College to cooperate and
plant some shrubbery on the grounds
each year.
Covered concrete walks between the
buildings.
An effort to get connection with
the Southern Railway and more rail-
road sidings in the grounds.
For woman's buildings for the dis
play of pantry supplies and other ar
ticles made by women.
For proper public comfort arrange
ments
new and attractive main entrance.
Macadam walkways and roadways.
The advisability of securing plenty
of electric lights so that the grounds
can be thrown open at night. If it is
considered profitable.
