IIENIRAI SEEO FAIR
Mr. James Simpson, the l'ra.-sidenl
of the Central Sccd Fair Committee. when seen by a Guardian re-porter and asked the reason of the Fair being cancelled replied:--
"The reason it was canceileil was
owing tc- the storm. on Tuesday which made it impossible for the ex- llibilors to get their exhibits here. As you know all trains were canceli- cd on Tuesday and the indications were that by reason of the storm the trains on Wednesday would arrive too late considering the limited time in which we had the use of the Marliet Building. Tile rules of the I-‘air are that the entries should -be in place by Tuesday, so as to permit of judging on Wednesday morning. As the judges were absent and did not get buck from Georgetown until Wednesday af- ternoon lt ran quite easily be seen how utterly impossible it would be to carry out the arrangements. The ex hiblis of only four persons had ar- rived up to Wednesday morning and ou that morning there were only two exhibitors present in person, and only <.-no of the Fair Committee. in adlii tion to myself on hand. As to poli- ]pouing the Fair for a week this would 'not be feasible aa the staff of the [le- partment of Agriculture have their work laid out ahead and have meet.- ings arranged for and plenty of other work Io do. Moreover there is no building available where the exhibits could be stored. If the Central Seed Fair is to bo Provincial in its scope it would certainly he absurd tg hold it for the -benefit of a few people from the outskirts of Charlottetown.
