Section. Liberal Prizes
Awarded Winners.
The County Fair held Saturday in
Water Valley was decided success.
The stock, poultry, agricultural and
arts exhibits were numerous and of
the very highest order, many of
them having won first honors at the
State fair. Had the weather been
favorable the attendance as well as
the display would have exceeded the
magnificent showing made, however
the fair proved a great success even
under the circumstance of continu-
Gus inclement weather.
The businessmen of Water Valley
who generously provided the liberal
premiums and who so unselfishly do
mated their time, energy and talents
IN preparing, arranging and pushing
the fair to o successful conclusion
are to be commended and congratu-
lated upon their efforts, County
Agent A. G. Hamilton and Home
Economics Agent Miss Lillian Doris
are entitled to special praise for the
efficient and tireless work they did
toward making the affair a success
We wish also to compliment the ex.
hibitors for their public spiritedness
in bringing in the exhibits and CO.
operating with the County Agents
and businessmen in putting the fair
over.
