Mr Reek explained the Minister‘s «bsence and recalled his only other visit to Durhamâ€"in the winter years cuzo. "Competition at the fall fairs today, said Mr Reek, "is such that . one or twoday fair is by far the best to meet these conditions. It is a eal problem for the fairs to live ip to the high standards demanded by present day agriculture, by conâ€" imer and by producer. Our farm products today must compete with the world. "Forty or more years ago when our forefathers were organizing agriâ€" cultural societies and fall fairs the primary object was to increase proâ€" duction. Today that theory no longâ€" er holds good: what we seek is not more production but how to market cur goods. And we must learn the the problems of marketing if we are to compete in the open market of the U‘1.ited Kingdom. To do so our proâ€" ducts must be standardized. or cold blasts, but now earlier in the month, :t still has Jupiter Pluvius &o,' contend with. ‘The opening day, last| Friday, saw fine weather, but olll Saturday, the main day, a light driz‘ ile (ell steadily from about 1 p. m. »hich while it did not force ean-; cellation of any events, was sufficlâ€". ent to reduce the attendance, and wiso discomfort to those who did C_C. & BESSIE McG!LLIVRAY Chniropractic and Drugless DU R H A M few Now we feel we are able to give to ir patients even greater service an before. | «i\ and have us diagnose your case.

To recognize these, a certifiâ€" cate of merit is being given to men in the various Societies, chosen by the present officers as worthy of merâ€" it. Durham chose Mr. George Ritchie, Past president, and long a worker and to him Mr Reek presented this certiâ€" ficate of merit for services rendered, Mr. Ritchie voicing his thanks.
