MEET UNANIMOUSLY REACHES
THAT DECISION.

Than Five Community Fairs in the
County This Year With the Pros

CFrom Mondays Daily Herald.)

lfIOiH MONDAY daily fteGdid.)
Santa Fe will, for the first time, this
fall hold community fair, thus in
surfing not less than five community
fairs in Maury county The decision
to have fair this fall was unanimous
ly reached at the meeting of the com
munity organization following a stir
ring address from County Agent S. G.
Alternately. Mr. Alternately made his
first appearance before the people OF
that community at the meeting of the
club and the reception given him was
attested by the action of the club in
deciding to hold fair.
The meeting was attended by about
siXty-hve of the leading men and wo-
men Of that section and was a most
enthusiastic one. No club in the coun-
ty has shown more interest or enthu,
siasm than that at Santa Fe. The
people are very much in earnest and
arc determined that the fair next fall
will be the best in the county.
Mr.. Alternately expressed himself as
very much gratified at the response
of the people OF the first district. He
said that they had manifested will
ingness to do anything that was sug-
gested for the betterment of agrcul-
ture and home living conditions in
that section.
Five fairs are practically assured
for communities this fall. They are
Isom, Enterprise, Culleo-
ka and Santa Fee and it is not i'm.
probable that Woodrow and Bryants
will join the list.

LAW NOT
YET GENERALLY
OBSERVED HERE
IN SOME SECTIONS LITTLE AT
TENTlON so FAR PAID TO THE
NO FENCE LAW.
OLD CUSTOMS ARE FOLLOWED
AS Time Goes on, However, and Pco-
pie Become Familiar With Prov-
sions There Will Be a More General
Acquescence in the Act.

Little, if any attention, is being paid
to the new stock or no fence law in
some parts of the county. 1t seems
that by mutual consent there are sec.
tons where the law is being ignored
as stock are running on the commons
Just as they have since the county
was first settled and no one appears
to be urging any objection. In those
sections of the county where there is
q strong sentiment behind the law it
is expected that its observance will
he more general. But there are por,
tons of the county where there is as
yet little sentiment for the no fen e
act and there enforcement will he de-
layed and the old time custom of turn
ing the stock on the commons will
probably be continued for some time
YET.
Under the provisions of the law it
is unlawful to turn any stock at large.
1t is an extension of the four wire law
under which goats and sheep and
hogs could not be permitted to run at
large. This law is in effect made to
apply now to cattle and horses and
mules.
1t is expected that as the people
become more familiar with the proyi-
sions of the law there will be an in.
creased acquiescence in it's provisions.
So far as is known there is no dispo-
sition manifested to prosecute offend
ers at this time. and it is not expect
cd that any effort will be made at the
coming term of the circuit court to
find indictments. The law. it is held,
is too new on the statute books for
any drastic action.
