Fairtime Highlights
By Your Ful -O -Pep Reporter
Your Full -O -Pep reporter trav-
elled approximately 2,800 miles
during the past week, covering the
Fairs at Brussels, Burford, Zur-
ich, Beeton, Caledonia, and Mar -
more.
The attendance at all the Fairs
was well up over ,previous years
and as usual, the livestock champ-
ions were, as a general rule, raised
on Quaker Ful -O -Pep Feeds. The
only complaint received by your
reporter in all the many miles trav-
elled last week was- that Ful-O-l'ep
feeds are not in sufficient supply.
It is still a little difficult at times
to secure all the Ful-O-I'ep re-
quired. The reason for this is that
quality has not been sacrificed for
quantity, and as a result, Ful -O -Pep
feeds are still the best that money
can buy.
At Brussels a concert and dance
at the Town Hall climaxed an un-
usually successful Fair, at which
the cattle entries were extrenicly
heavy—more than 200 entries in all.
The Beeton Fair featured a bi-
cycle race for children which drew
a great crowd. This was a new
event this year and added colour
to the exhibition. The Fair Grounds
at Beeton were in fine condition. It
is a toss-up as to whether the freck-
le contest or the baby show pleased
the proud parents the most.
At Zurich, the School Fair was.
run in conjunction with the Agri-
cultural Fair, and here Mr. W. S.
O'Neill, well-known cattle man and
Ful -O -Pep feeder, won prominence
with his entry.
The attendance at Burford was
well above normal, and all entries
were substantially up over preced-
ing years. Jumping and saddle
classes drew much favourable com-
ment. A $75.00 prize was awarded
for a field crop competition.
Caledonia Fair celebrated it s
Diamond Jubilee with record
crowds—well over 15,000 being in
attendance during the three days.
This is the only Fair in Haldiinand
County. Caledonia's newly -formed
40 -piece concert band was in atten-
dance and helped create a gay And
carefree atmosphere which prevail-'
ed throughout the Fair.
At Marmora, the attendance was
somewhat less than that of Cale-
donia, but the holiday spirit was
every bit as noticeable and invig-
orating. Fortunately here, too, the
weatherman was kind and a thor-
oughly successful Fair was held. At
Marmora, the men who raise the
Champions were once again the men
who feed Quaker Ful -O -Pep feeds.
