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.
