which has never been equalled
! in the Sou h 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 who
have hern visiting the Southeastern
; Fair will be the Fat Stock division,
| in which there are premiums offered
aggregating $11,000, a sum much larg- j
er than some state fairs offer for all j
of their livestock.

The accommodations which will be .
provided for this show will he such
as to piease exhibitors in every j
way. The connecting rails of the
Southeastern Fa r will unload the cat
tie and swine alongside their pens |

to the importance of both the Boys’;
