STATES GREATEST CROPS AT FAIR
The exhibit of farm products at the State Fair in Richmond the second week in October promises to eclipse anything ever before seen in the entire south. Already there are twice as many county exhibits entered as were seen at last year's Fair, some of which are pictured here, and the department of single farm exhibits will likewise show a big increase. A wonderful display of apples and other fruits is also assured.
The handsome premiums offered by the Fair this year, together with Virginia's tremendous war crops, will result in an agricultural show no farmer can afford to miss. Reduced railroad rates.
