Erect Buildings for Actual Service. 



In constructing buildings, aim at practical service rather 

 than beautiful architectural effects. 



Adequate display of exhibits is of more importance than 

 beautiful roofs and cupolas. 



American production is of more importance than Italian 

 art — at a fair. 



Missions of Any Fair. 



To define all missions of the fair would be a difficult task. 



A fair is an educational institution, and it is its duty to 

 educate along any line that will develop worth-while practical 

 results. 



Be considerate of All Suggestions. 



Do not visibly despise a poor suggestion. 



The fact that the suggestion is made shows that its maker 

 is interested in the fair. 



Everybody in the territory served should be interested in 

 the fair. 



Faie Woek Publications. 



There are a number of bulletins and circulars on fair work 

 published by various departments of agriculture and extension 

 services. I would recommend that every fair worker read the 

 following publications and keep them for references : — 



"Live Stock Classifications at County Fairs." Farmers' 

 Bulletin No. 822, U. S. Department of Agriculture, June, 

 1917.

 Department of Agriculture, December, 1917.
