With the coming of the auto- mobile. motor trucks and good roads, around the turn of the century, many of these condi- tions were changed, with cheap and questionable midway at- tractions coming on the scenes to sidetrack what was formerly looked upon as strictly agricul- tural shows. Horse races also grew in favor, along with third rate burlesque and vaudeville shows in' front of the grand- stands to please the fickle pub- lic and also detract their atten- tion from the exhibits of a purely agricultural show. [TIME DURHAM HAD A» COUNTY FAIR I In early days, and in many Icases they still exist, these fall .fairs were confined to township I affairs. This was due to trans- portation difficulties in bring- Iinrg livestock to these shows in tfarm wagons or have the far- mer’s sons drive the cattle and other animals by foot along the concession roads to the neighâ€" bouring town where the fair was held. That was in the1 ’h‘orse and buggy days, as we called that era. The writer of! this article was born in town and can well remember on fair idays getting up early and go-I ing to the old fair grounds (now Carlisl-e Avenue), and watching the 'ar'rikral of fiheI animals and fowl being put in plane for judging and later admired and criticized bv theI I c 1 011 ds. . To keep up with modern tendencies and the van of pro- gress many contend that the smaller township fairs should' amalgamate into one large- eounty exhibition. We don’t need to go farther than Duru ham County to start the wheel} going; to this end where four annual fairs are held. Port; Hope, Orono and Blackstock hold fall fairs and Millbrook holds a spring Show. Such a tsuggestion may stir up super loyalty to the 01d established institutions, to think of co- operating to hold a united fair in another community. But we think the time is long over- due to consider such a move and \we would put our neck out further to start a discussion by suggesting Oron-o would be the logical place for holding a county exhibition for Durham lCounty. It is centrally located; ‘has a good race track, plenty .of acreage wih room to expand and the hall is in a fair state of preservation. ' Bolivia -â€" Authorities have informed the Roman Catholic Archbishop that, in future. all Catholics Who attack Protest- ant communities Will be prose- cuted. At the same time the Archbishop has been requesed to inform the Catholic. organiza- tions of the country to abstain from “every kind of manifesta- tion of religions intolerance.” â€"-â€"War Cry. BOLIVIA MOVES FORWARD A Now if any of our readers wish to fire snowballs at this idea let them fly by sending in their arguments, for it is too much to expect such a radical mme would be_unanimous. The fall fair is a rural insti- tution which in many cases in Southern Ontario, particularly, dates back to over 100 years in some counties. The original intention of these shows was to encourage farmers, by competi- tion, to raise good purebred livestock and grow farm pro- duce of a high calibre in which they would take a real pride in entering the various competi- tions set by the agricultural societies. (Bowmanville Statesman) This isthe time of year when agricultural societies hold their annual meetings and present financial statements and other important information to all and sundry who are interested in the welfare of the local fall fair, or agricultural exhibition.
