OCR NEXT FAIR.
Since the convention at New-
nan, much enthusiasm concerning
the next State fair has been devel¬
oped.
The very liberal premium list
has stimulated a spirited but friend¬
ly rivalry among our farmers,
stockmen, fruit growers and gar¬
deners, as is evidenced by the in¬
creased number of applications
from all sections of our own and
adjoining States for space.
The following is a partial list of
the counties already entered for the
ONE THOUSAND DOLLAR PREMIUM.'
Wilkes, Columbia, Warren,Han¬
cock, Baldwin, Effingham, McIn¬
tosh, Liberty, Screven, Jefferson,
Sumpter, Randolph. Houston,
Douglass, Troup, Talbott, Pierce
and Butts.
Look at this array and recall the
magnificence of the exhibits last
year when only four counties en¬
tered, and it is difficult to conceive
the immense benefit that such a
lavish display of her agricultural
resources will bring to the entire
State.
It requires but little reflection
to convince anyone that tbe coun-
ty that bears off the palm in this
contctst will have justly won the ti-
tic of “Banner County ” Will our
county be behind?
KCINTOSH COUNTY’S LIBERALITY.
As an earnest of McIntosh coun¬
ty’s interest in the progress of our
good old State, witness the follow¬
ing list of special premiums offered
by her;
For the best bushel sweet po¬
tatoes $25
For the best bushel of corn
(for bread) in the car 25
For the best bushel of turnips
any variety 10
For the best bushel field peas 25
For the best bushel ground peas 25
For the best 3 dozen stalks sn*
gar cane 50
For the best individual exhibit
of farm products SO
F'or the best scuppernong wine
not less than 5 gallon 30
F'or second best scuppernong
wine, Hot less than 1 gallon 20
For the best geneial exhibit of
rice ill all its various forms 50
For second best exhibit of rice
in all its various forms 10
For the best bushel clean rice 50
F'or the best bushel rough rice $0
These premiums are open to
any and everybody in the State of
^r ar “ umi,e " “ Gc,,r -
It is more than probable
these specials will be in created by
other counties, and it wiil be in¬
deed strange if it does not produce
such a host df individual exhibits
a« was never seen in the State.
4 he management, although lib¬
eral with tbe farmer, has not been
unmindful of the ladies and chil-
dfen, and there is enough in their
department to stimuhitB all their
dflefgiUs.
