OCONEE COUNTY FAIR.
GRAND PREPARATIONS.
Entries Already Being Made.
XSCMHCKXT RACE TRACK.
FAIR BEGINS NEXT MONDAY AND
WILL CONTINUE FOUR DAYS.
The attention that the Oconee
County Fair lias ami is receiving is
fully merited by the Fair Association.
At great expenso they erected hand-
somo and commodious buildings, and
beautified the grounds until it would
be hard to find a more attractive
place.
Much iuterest is being felt in the
success of tho Fair by the citizens of
Athens and Clarke county, and we
haven’t a doubt but a pleasant time to
all and profitable to many is in store
for those who attend.
For the guidance of those who have
articles for exhibition we publish be
low the regulations of the Association
in regard to entries.
ENTRIES.
All entries roust" be made by 12
o’clock on Tuesday except those enter
ing lor the trotting or running races
which must be entered by 9 o’clock on
the day of the tace.
No entrance foe charged for premi
ums less than five dollars. Articles
competing for premiums of 85 or more,
10 per cent, entrance fees will be
charged.
Exhibitors arc required to cnreiully
attach their entry cards to the articles
to be exhibited, in order that there
may be no mistake in arranging
them.
No person wT be allowed to see the
entries made until after the premiums
are awarded.
Kutries ca>. be initio at any time be
fore the Fair by abdication to the
Secretary.
' When thorough-bred stock is enter
ed an authenticated pedigree will be
required, which will be judged upon
by the committee.
Exhibitors are earnestly requested
to make their entries Mu have their
articles on the ground as early as
practicable, thereby save confusion
and secure the better arrangement of
their articles.
Whilst every precaution will be
taken for the protection of all articles,
yet the Association will, in no case,
he responsible for any loss or damage
which may occur.
The premiums are liberal and com
prehensive—crops are good and now
we do hope that our people will take
the proper interest in making the
Fair a grand success.
The following extract from the ad
dress to the people of Sumpter and
adjoining counties by Capt. John A
Cobb, President of the Americus Fair
Association is so appllotble to our sac-
tion that we take pleasure in reproduc
ing and we beg our people to adopt
the spirit of the address in reference
to Oconee county Fair:
“ What we want now is to show
other sections what our resources are,
and the only way to do it is for every
one, whether they intend to compete
for premiums or not, to come to the
Fair next week and bring their wives
and children and a sample of every*
thing they raise, corn, cotton, oats,
wheat, sugar cane, rice, peas, chufas,
potatoes, turnips, and any garden or
orchard products in season, their
marcs, colts, sows, pigs, cows, calves,
sheep and goats. Housewives, bring
articles ot your handiwork, all charac
ters of needle wot k, and samples of
your raising and make of hams, lard,
buttor, jellies, preserves, breads, eggs,
chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, etc.
Let the little girls and boys bring
anything they have to exhibit. We
want the world to know what smart
girls and boys we have; and they
will find in Captain Brannon, Super
intendent of their department, a kind
and attentive friend who will show
their articles to the best advantage. _
Let no one come without bringing
something to put on exhibition, and
let us make such a display of our pro
ducts and industries as to demonstrate
to every section that we have a county
that is unsurpassed by any in its cli
mate, soil and great variety of pro-
ducts and the character of its popula
tion. Let no one fail to do his duty,
so that when the Fair is over every
one can feel lhat>the success of the ex*
filiation was in a large measure due to
their efforts to make it so.”
Dare You to Take It.
’Rio Pop and Go Base ball club have
challenge for the State in another
columu to which we invite attention.
They arc the best in the land, so they
think, and we do too. Now let the
cloli that think* they cau catch more
flies, hat farther, or steal more bases
than they can, dance np to the Caps
tain’s office, pull out their weave]
skin and throw down their quarter.

defies competition in offering to the people of
North-east Georgia a stock ot goods unequaled

tbe beet stock of harness, saddles, whips and
