The features of the state fair hare been so far matured, that a mention of them is a practical presentation of the official program which the program com mittee u> getting into form for public an nouncement- ^ , The first day of the fair, October 31. ia -Press Day.” On that date Macon and the Macon fair association, under the auspices of the Qeorgia State Agri cultural Society, will formally open the the exhibition, by an entertainment of the, newspaper men of the state. Through their generous co-operation, Macon has been largely aided, and she proposes to seek an opportunity to tes tify her apnreciation. The formal open ing will be observed with appropriate ceremonies. Following this will be an old-fashioned Georgia barbecue, tender ed the pencil pushers of tbe state, and other entertainment. „ „ Ootober 32 ia "North Carolina Day. This event will be one of the red-letter features of the fair. From far and near messages of cheer have come to tbe local committee, having in charge tbe ar rangements for the reunion of the sons and daughters of the "Old North State” residents in Georgia. Many distinguish ed representatives of Nortn Carolina will come to Macon to participate in the pleasures of tbe reunion. October 23 is "Military Day.” Not lees than twedtv companies of Georgia State troops will compete for the liberal prizes otiered. In addition, the crack cadet corpe of the several military insti tutes will participate. The fairgrounds for one day will add the picturesqueness of the tented field, to its many other at tractions. Saturday, October 24 is '-Drummers Day." No force in all the state have done more loyal work for the State Fair than the “Knights of the Grip.” Eyery- wbere--at the hotels, en route on the railroad trains, in the stores of custom ers—they have talked tbe State Fair— handled it as a side line. The keys of the city will be handed to them on "Drummers Day." and they will own tbe Fair and the fullness thereof. Sunday, Ootober 25. Conterno’s fa mous band will entertain with a sacred concert. While all exhibition halls and all other features of the Fair will be closed, the music which Conterno will render will of itself be worth a ;journey across the state to hear. Monday, October 20, the Georgia Farm ers Congress, with over one thousand delegates will be opened. The seesions of the congress, which will be one of the most interesting features of the Fair, will continue five days. It will be ad- dieseed each day by a noted authority on topios of peculiar interest to tbe farmers. The races will also commence October 20. The raiest racing sport ever pre sented at u State Fair will be witnessed by all who attend, Entries are being made 1 rom ail sections of the country. Not less than 200 horses will be stabled at the pnrk during the race week of the Fair. Twelve counties have already applied for space for county exhibits, which guarantee the greatest, display of agri cultural products ever assembled m tbe history of the state. The stock and poultry exhibits and tbe dsplay of farm machinery and im plements will be immense in their pro proportions. The amusements of the fair will equal the other features. The grand "Arcade” will be a magnificent revelation, out classing anything ever attempted at any prei ions State Fair in variety- and per fection. The park is to be wired for hundreds of electric lights, so that at night it will present an entrancing scene—while above the sky will be lit by the glow of fireworks, and Conterno's band will rav ish the ear with its incomparable melo dies. The railroads have authorized a rate or one fare for the round trip. One cent and a half a mile each way. The State Fair will he held at a seasou when all people can spare the time to come to Macon and enjoy a holiday, it, will be an opportunity to renew old acquaint ances and make new ones. It will offer a chance to learn something more of- fhe state than was known before. The State Fair will tie a course in liberal ed ucation.
