Otherwise Hanover‘s lone $ exâ€" hibitors may dwindle close to the vanishing point next year ! Holstein Fair is the real communâ€" ity fair of the district. _ Here there were 82 exhibitors in all, 64 local and 18 outside of the immediate district. Apparently as outsiders increase, the home exhibitors drop off. Coming home to Durham Fair there were 70 exhibitors this year, but 40 of these were residents in town and locality. 30 outside exhibitors here is almost as many as in Hanover, still the 40 local ones show a much greater home interest. Looking over a list of Hanover Fair exhibitors, we note that local interest has almost entirely died out. Only 44 exhibitors in all, and of these only 8 are from Hanover and immediate district. _ Why, there are 6 from Durham and close by, almost as many as Hanover itself, while the other exhibitors are from Chesley, Dundalk, Elnfwood, 6 from Walkerâ€" ton, Harriston, Neustadt, Monkton, Paisley, Arthur, etc. .

With the advent of the truck and motor car, however, this is gradually changing, as local competition is dwindling, and more, and more distant outside exhibitors are bringing their stock and produce in. These distant exhibitors invartâ€" ably have superior stock, produce, or work, and such advertises themselves and gives the public a wider range: of exhibits to view. But the outsiders are showing solely for the prize money and possibly the advertising. They have otherwise no interest in building up the fair. 1 lwhe Buskuw Arviw | P. RAMAGE.
