ANOTHER FAIR TO
Be GIVEN BY LOCAL
POULTRY RAIsERs
GIynn Association Announces
Date of Opening to be ON
Thanksgiving Day.
WILL LIKELY RUN FOR
AT LEAST THREE DAYS
Last Event Of This Kind. Held
One Year Ago, Was Source of
Assembling Products of This
Section.

President R. g. Jackson, of the
Glynn County Poultry Breeders AS
sociation, announced yesterday that
plans had about been completed for
the holding of another fair, which
will begin On Thanksgiving, Novem-
Der 28th and continue for at least
three days and those who attended
the last event of this, kind given by
the ASSOCIATION know what to expect
because even those who make a
study of affairs of the farm, indus
trial and manufacturing, as well as
those of a domestic character, were
really surprised at the exhibits which
were assembled then. 1t was a reveal
alton to many and especially was this
true of the exhibit of the colored peo-
pie. The fair will be held at the
same site, Boy Scout headquarters,
corner Newcastle and Prince streets.
1t is stated that the opening day
will find a larger variety of exhibits
than before and the event is to be
on a somewhat larger scale and eff
forts will be made to have neighbor-
ing counties participate. While it is
true that p1any visitors from Camden.
Mcintosh, Brantley and Wayne came
here during the fair period, these did
not have exhibits. Two of the coun-
ties mentioned, Brantley and Wayne,
have recently held fairs and it is
said that some of the exhibits have
been kept intact for just such occas-
ions as the local fair will offer.
While it is true that the GIynn
County Poultry Breeders Associa-
ton is primarily one organized for
the purpose of furthering the fowl
raising industry in Glynn and other
counties in this section, it is also TAX
ing great interest in many other in
teresting and pofitable projects. The
farm, with all it carries, domestic
affaite such as home canning, needle
work and like subjects, have receiv-
ed great attention from the associa-
decided increase of production along
the lines recently. AS an example of
what can be done by organization, it
is pointed out that Glynn county has
jumped from among the last in the
poultry raising business to, those at
the very top. 1t is noted that the
increase in this industry here has
been unprecedented and it should be
understood that the association which
is responsible for it is teaching the
people to raise the very best in both
poultry and swine and as result
some of the very best specimen of
each are living examples of what can
be done, as it is a we'll known fact
that some of the finest fowls any
where can be found in Brunswick and
Glynn county, and the same may be
said of swine.
The Poultry Association is called
to meet at the Board of Trade rooms
at o'clock tomorrow night and
President Jackson desires it under
stood that the meeting is open to all
fanciers of the fowl and all who are
interested in matters pertaining to
truck farming, hog raising, domestic
science, handicraft and woodcraft, in
fact, everything that. will develop
this section. The meeting is the first
to be held since the association "re-
cessed,' so to speak, for the summer
months and various subjects in con-
nection with the coming fair and
poultry show will be discussed. 1t
is expected that many will be present
and participate ia the proceedings.
