in every respect.
It will certainly benefit others as it has

remedy is within the reach of every suf
j fering woman."

general throughout the .State." said
President Henry Fairfax, of the State
Fair Association, yesterdnjy. "It shows
that our efforts to huild up and foster
the industries of the State have taken
root, and if there Is anything we can
do to help the county fairs, wo stand
ready and willing.
"We are glad to ace so many coun?
ties of the State grasp the idea thar
we have promulgated, and the good
results are bound to come. "I would
like to see every county in the Stute
have Its fair. The county fair is like
a family gathering. The people of the
neighborhood get together to display
their wares, and this starts a friendly
rivalry among the neighbors, and
there will not be a family or person
who may not profit thereby.
Lends to State Fair.
"The State Fair Is the culmination
of the idea. The local idea leads to
something grander and with more
benefit and prortt to those concerned,
and those concerned are the whole peo-1
pie.
"We are trying to elevate the dis?
couraged agricultural and mechanical
Industries, and to help the more suc?
cessful ones, for success to the in?
dividual means success Id the wholo
State, and 1 feel that there Is not -i
right-thinking man or woman in the
State who does not feel that what pro?
fit's the Commonwealth .also profits the
Individual.
"Our board of directors will be glad
at any time to confer with the coun?
ty fair people, and they will do any?
thing to help the county fair Idea
along."
The State Fair will start up on
