The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1921-10-27

had been made, but, notwithstand-
, ing all of this the exhibits at this
, fair would have been credit to
. any community. The corn, velvet
beans, soy beans, hay, sweet po-
tatoes, sugar cane, sorghum, pea
nuts, hogs, cattle, etc., on exhibit
ton show that the people in this
section have quit the one crop
system and begun to diversity in
earnest. The culinary and hand
made garment displays were some
|. thing good to look upon.
= At the noon hour all were called
to the dinner table where the ladi-
es of the community had prepared
one of those famous Pisgah dim
ners.
Enthusiasm was in evidence du-
lring the whole day, and especially
in the afternoon when meeting
was held to perfect an organiza-
ton for next years fair. Express
ions lfrom several revealed the
fact that the people of the Pisgah
School District and surrounding
territory believe that they are liv-
ing in one of the best farming dis
tricts in the state, and that they
can put on fair second to none
of it's size. The next years organi-
cation was formed with the fol-
lowing officers: G. S.. Thrash,
Chairman, w. C. Barksdale, Vice
chairman, j. A. Robinson, Secre-
tary-treasurer.
All left with determination to
make next years fair a success in
every respect, all will save and
prepare for exhibition the best
they have.
