Fair Time Highlights By the Ful -O -Pep Reporter Your Ful -O -Pep Reporter "Signs Off" For The 1948 Fall Fair Season For the past two months or more your Ful-O•Pep Reporter has been travelling the highways and byways of the Province -of Ontario covering Fall Fairs large and small and trying to make pictures which we thought would be of interest both to those who attended and also to those who could not be there personally. Some of those Fairs ran into un- favorable weather, which naturally cut down attendances somewhat. But, on the whole, we think we are safe in saying that this was one of the most successful seasons ever known. Seldom if ever before has the interest shown been as intense, and never has the general duality of the stock and products shown been so high. Ontario can be honestly proud of its Fall Fairs and, the part they play in raising our -Agri- cultural' Standards.
