all the plans for holding the same, it
was decided that a co-operative ar-

16-26, would serve all the interests in

considering the splendid equipment

of the Southeastern Fair in the way of
buildings and the further fact that a
mile and a half of standard railway
track to connect the grounds with the
Atlanta Belt Line Railway, had been
contracted for. the committee decided
that there was no other place either
in Georgia or the Southeastern states

BrThe immediate result of the agree

ers in the South in an effort to make
the first show something that would
really be of international importance,
and it was at once reflected in a de
mand for stalls in the c-attle and swine
buildings that left no doubt of the
popularity of the proposed enterprise.

BIG INTERNA
TIONAL FEATURE
Club Stock Judging Contest an
Exclusive Feature of the
Southeastern Fair,
Oct. 16-26.
Through co-operative arrangements
between the Southeastern Fair Asso
ciation and the club extension work of
the States Relation Service, an Inter
national Club Stock Judging Contest
will be held at the Southeastern fait,
Atlanta, October 16-26. which will at
tract boys from all over the United
States and Canada, and which may
also attract contestants from other na
tions engaged in boys’ club work. This
big feature of the Southeastern Fair
was secured in competition with other
fairs in the United States and in the
opinion of President H. G. Hastings
it was awarded to Atlanta because of
the spendid facilities foj conducting
Inch a contest and for the further rea
son that Atlanta is the center of the
greatest club activities in the country.

show which has never been equalled
in the South and second only in im
portance to the International Livestock
Show at Chicago, and it is the ambi
tion of the Southern breeders and the
management of the Southeastern Fair
to attain a success that will assure
the National Hog and Cattle Show a
standing equal to the greatest live
stock expositions on the continent.
The added interest to those whc
have been visiting the Southeastern
Fair will be the Fat Stock division,
jin which there are premiums offered
aggregating SII,OOO, a sum much larg
er than some state fairs offer for all
of their livestock.
The accommodations which will be
provided for this show will be such
as to please the exhibitors in every
way. The connecting rails of the
j Southeastern Fair will unload the cat
tle and swine alongside their pens,
and every other convenience for car
ling for them will be provided and a
show is insured which will add much
to the importance of both the Boys’
Fair School and the International Club
Stock Judging Contest, which are now
permanent features of the Southeast
ern Fair.

will be an interesting experience, even
if the winners are too democratic to
esteem it as an honor.
