'FAIR OUTLOOK IS MARTIN J, CALI Live Stock Exhibit and Dis play of aFrm Imple ments Good. The Hon. Martin V. Calvin la enthualabtlc orer the proapccta for the state fair. Ho la especially pleaaed with the live stock ex hibit, and expresses hla belief thnt the fair of 1906 will surpass all previous ex hibitions In the following letter to The Georgian: To the Editor of The Georgian: Your editorial mention nnd cordis! In- dorsment of the Georgia state,, fair, lit re cent Issues of The Georgian, were received with favor by the people and the manage ment. The fair Is nt hand. It will begin on the 10th and close on the 20th Instant. The ont- look for a great fair was never brighter. The extraordinarily liberal cash premiums provided by the Atlanta Fair Asosclstlon has created the sharpest competition among the counties which early determined to en ter the list for the most complete and most attractive county agricultural ex hibit. I venture to predict that when the com potlug counties announce “Readythe most observant vlsltora will declare that, lu point of special and general excellence, no such display of agricultural products „was ever made In Georgia; that It would com pare favorably with any ever made In any state In the union. I make this venture tieenuse I know the contesting counties, the possibilities nnd the high capability of each of them. There will be four countlen, nt least, that will prise SWSS l ° C “ rrjr off tho tfrnU( * I make,the venture because I know the [•rfect unanimity with which tho Georgia Into Agricultural Moclety has seconded every effort put forth by the Atlanta Fair EVERUTTENTIOM Sheriff States That Prisoner at Jail Will Be Cared For. y Interest to the live stock exhibit. My In formation la that It will be astonishingly line. This means that General Mnnsger Weldon hasfspnrcd neither pains nor time In Interesting hro«»der* In tne splendid op- rtunltv which the atate fair affords them . - tells of their enterprise and painstaking, before the people. It Is of the first Importance that Geor gia farmers should ss one man become actively Interested In high-bred live stock. This 1s especially applicable to our young men who propose to make farming their life work. First-class live stock Is Inseparable from progressive fanning. No high degree of prosperity can ever attach to a farm with out the t»eat live stock. 1 am making these points because I wish the people to come up to the fair—each with an underscored memorandum: “Don’t fall to visit the live stork department.” And number underscored memorandum: Don't fall to closely Inspect the depart- lent of labor-saving farm Implements.” There will Ik* other departments, each with Its specialties and worthy of the closest attention. And If there were no attractions other than those mentioned, nnd Colonel Frank Weldon's special preference— the all-day singing—It would remain that the coming of the people together—seeing one another, getting acquainted with each other, and doling the excvlloiit cJhs* uf people who constitute the cltlxenry of Geor gia. would more thnn compensate the co-op erating societies for Mil the work done nnd nil the expenditure made In furtherance T the fair.
