WINSTON FAIR SET FOR WEEK OCT. 3RD Event Expected to be Bigger And Better Than Ever Winston-Salem, Sept. 15.—The first full week in October, as has been the custom for years, will be known as the Winston-Salem and Forsyth County Fair Week, and President W. N. Reynolds declares that purses for the horse races and prizes for agricultural and commer cial exhibits this year are larger here than at most state fairs in the nation, and larger than at any other county fair in the entire Southeast. Dr. T. N. Spencer, Secretary-man ager, has completed all arrange ments for conditioning the large number of buildings at the fair grounds here, and the race track is 4n the best of condition. He states that the number of free days has been increased to three this year: Tuesday all ladies will be. admitted through the turnstiles without cost; Friday all school children from the white schools will find a welcome and will be admitted without tick ets; Saturday all colored children of school age will pass^free. This year preliminary entries are far above the- average, and while some had anticipated a decreasing interest because of general financial conditions, the management realizes that competition will be keener than ever for the larger cash prizes and certificates of merit, which mean much to producers. The best in the show world has been obtained, L. D. Long, Treas urer, declares, and he bases this conclusion on the high prices which the management is paying for its at tractions.
