days to obanee by that i mean they sit baok and bope that exhibitors win patronize their abow ie they com it was a grand day if they fall to show up some other show whloh unfortunately was on the same day got the credit or blame for taking their exlbltor away perhaps there waa a reason management of a fall fair is like the management of any other bust- nees the gogetter is bound to win fail lair executives who cater to their exhibitors will not only build up a steady now of exhibits but win like wise build up their gate recelpta prize lists must be brought up-to- date new classes added and prixe- money steadily increased as a fair ad- erhibitors in the horse and cattle sections especially win not bring their stock out if they can only enter in one or two classes these must be adequate one of the big jobs in fair manage ment is for its secretary and directors to g out and sell their show in uuons etc advertise the fact ton wul find that you have more fair news than you realised coming back to the exhibitor angle get acquainted with your exhibitors nothing works better than a person al letter to attract exhibitors to your show during the past season i have written literally

to help nil up the classes advertising is a big feature and one idea whloh might be adopted would be a sign at the highway ap proaches to your town advertising the fair the year round we have this under consideration m georgetown there is no reason as i see it why the small fair cannot build up a larger attendance give your customers plenty of attractions for what in terests one might not interest another get other organizations interested in your fair too and the citizens gener ally by asking them to help but fair management in the final analysis rests with a directorate which is
