We are especially happy to have at the State Fair friends from other states. The 1963 North Carolina State Fair has exhibits ranging from the relics of yesteryear to the most recent inventions for farm and industrial use, and instruments of the Space Age. On the fairgrounds can be found the symbols of 300 years of growth of the State of North Carolina. I am confident that visitors to the Fair will enjoy the highlights of North Carolina as demonstrated at the State Fair. With best wishes always. Sincerely TERRY SANFORD, Governor L.Y. BALLENTINE COMMISSIONER AN INVITATION FROM THE COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE This year marks the Tenth Anniversary of the inauguration of the POLICY OF A SPECIAL THEME FOR EACH NoRTH CAROLINA STATE Fa I R . Forestry, the theme chosen for 1963, is not only an industry of GREAT ECONOMIC IMPACT IN THIS STATE, BUT IT ALSO SYMBOLIZES THE GROWTH OF THE Fair itself. As a young sapling year by year adds to its breadth AND stature until IT BECOMES A MIGHTY TREE OF THE FOREST, SO YEAR BY year the fair continues to show a steady growth in all its dimensions. "Miracle of the Forest" is the title of the theme, and exhibits will present eye-opening evidence of the many forms this miracle takes. Forestry, the State's third largest industry, provides an annual product VALUED AT MORE THAN ONE BILLION DOLLARS. 1t PROVIDES JOBS FOR 80,000 North Carolinians and the total annual payroll of forest industries AMOUNTS to $270,000,000. North Carolina ranks first in the Nation in manufacture of wooden furniture and in hardwood plywood production. These are but a few of the many contributions of forestry which will be GIVEN graphic PRESENTATION IN THE THEME EXHIBITS. Visitors will find other miracles and marvels on every hand as the Fair presents both new features and new versions of old features in exhibits and entertainment throughout the six days, October 14-19. During the past year, improvements in the Fair's facilities have been made for the convenience and comfort of its patrons. Covered space has been added to the cattle barn to provide better arrangements for the Fat Steer Show, a new feature initiated last year. Parking facilities have been substantially increased. Additional walkways have BEEN black-topped. OtHER REPAIRS AND IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE AS funds permitted. Through your support and participation, you contribute directly to THE Fair's growth and progress. Come again this year, bring the whole family and your neighbor's family, to view with pride what you have contributed towai^d making this the finest State Fair in the South and to again make your contribution to its continued growth and expansion.

Please report any discourtesies by gatemen, concessionaires, showmen, or others connected with the Fair. If, for any reason, there is a misunder-standing about admission at gates or elsewhere, please pay the admission price asked, take a receipt for same, and come direct to the Manager's office. Please do not block traffic and delay others by prolonged arguments with ticket-sellers, gatemen and ticket-takers who are working on strict orders from the management and are not allowed to vary from them. Concessions and attractions are granted privileges on the grounds to supply the necessary wants, comforts, conveniences and pleasures of the patrons. The management will not accept or knowingly allow the con-tinuance of any concession, show or other attraction of a questionable nature or a demoralizing tendency, nor will any concession be permitted where the business is conducted in other than a legitimate and legal manner. Drunkenness, quarreling, or the use of profane or obscene language will not be allowed on the grounds. No begging will be permitted. No peddling, hawking or selling of any kind will be allowed in the build-ings or on the grounds except by special license obtained from the Manager. All dining halls, lunch stands, refreshment booths and other places dis-pensing food and beverage must be substantial in structure and neat in appearance. They must meet all health regulations and must sell only good, wholesome food and pure honest goods at reasonable prices which must be approved by the Fair management and displayed in a prominent place. The management of the State Fair reserves the right to amend, add to and interpret the foregoing and following Rules and Regulations, and to arbitrarily settle and determine all questions and differences in regard thereto, or otherwise arising out of, connected with, or incident to the Fair. In the event of conflict between the General Rules and the special rules which appear as headnotes of the various divisions and departments of the Fair, the latter will take precedence. Disregard of any rule, or misrepresentation on the part of the exhibitor, concessionaire or patrons will forfeit all premiums won, privileges granted, fees paid, and rights to further participation in the Fair. SERVICES The Southern Bell Telephone Company will maintain complete service and toll stations at convenient points on the Fairgrounds. Oz 8 1963 North Carolina State Fair An Information Bureau and office for reporting and recovery of lost and found articles will be maintained on the State Fairgrounds. This service is free and will be cheerfully given. Please do not ask for the use of the Public Address System to locate "lost" persons except small children and in emergencies, or where school bus drivers and other group leaders desire to announce departure times. An office for the use and convenience of representatives of the Press, and Radio and Television Stations, will be maintained with telephones, type-writers, and other facilities. It will be a pleasure to supply authentic in-formation of news value about the Fair, including lists of premium awards and photographs. Arrangements may be made in advance for special Press, Radio and Television coverage of the Fair by competent trained personnel. The American Red Cross will maintain an emergency hospital and first aid station at the Lounge, with trained attendants in charge at all times. Toilet facilities for men and women have been substantially increased in recent years. ATTENDANTS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CHARGE FOR USE OF THESE FACILITIES. In order for the State Fair to maintain a complete file of pictures for the use of Press and Television services, exhibitors and patrons are re-quested to cooperate with the Official Photographer of the Fair. Exhibitors are under no obligation to purchase pictures, but may arrange directly with the photographer for this service if they so desire. Decoration and sign painting service, at nominal charges, will be avail-able to exhibitors and can be arranged through the Information Desk at the Manager's office. A feed and forage concession will be operated for livestock exhibitors. Grain, hay, straw and other supplies will be available at prevailing prices. The Fair will furnish free the original bedding for each stall and pen, but exhibitors are required to care for and feed their own animals and they must keep stalls and pens clean and well bedded thereafter. The State Fair will employ police, guards and traffic directors, and will use diligence to promote safety and protection of patrons, and their exhibits and property on the Fairgrounds. But, under no circumstances will the Fair or any of its officers and employees be responsible for loss or damage to persons and their property (including entries, exhibits, automobiles in parking lots, and articles left in cars) because of accidents, theft, fire, the elements, or other conditions. Articles and animals shipped or mailed to the Fair for exhibit will be accepted only if ALL CHARGES ARE PREPAID.

Remember! All exhibits must be officially entered in the Fair, on official printed forms provided for that purpose, before the closing date for entries in the department. No article or animal will be entitled to space or con-sidered in the judging until proper entry has been made. Removal of ex-hibits before the date and time specified above will be cause for forfeit of all premiums won, all fees paid, and the right to further participation in the Fair. All exhibits will be numbered and recorded in the books of the proper department and class and exhibit tag with corresponding numbers will be issued. This tag must be securely attached to the exhibit and must remain on the exhibit throughout the Fair (except that exhibit tags issued for live-stock and poultry may be conspicuously displayed upon the stall, pen or coop). Exhibitors who make their entries well in advance of the opening of the Fair will receive their exhibit tags by mail; otherwise, they should first visit the Entry Department upon their arrival on the Fairgrounds and re-ceive their exhibit tags. Once the exhibit is numbered and tagged, it should be delivered to the Department Superintendent or Director, who will allocate space and either personally arrange the exhibit in a suitable and attractive display, or direct such action by the exhibitor. All exhibitors are urged to personally bring their exhibits to the Fair and enjoy the educational and recreational advantages of the annual ex-position. However, exhibits may be shipped or mailed to: MANAGER, N. C. STATE FAIR, P. 0. BOX 5565, RALEIGH, N. C, and they will be carefully handled, officially entered, tagged, and otherwise treated in the same manner as previously described. They will be given the same con-sideration with regard to display and judging as exhibits personally de-livered. All exhibits shipped or mailed MUST BE PREPAID. No transportation charges for express, postage, freight or drayage will be paid by the Fair. Shipments should be carefully labeled, accompanied by a bill of lading, and All carload shipments by freight, for exhibition purposes, should be billed as follows: FOR EXHIBIT, N. C. STATE FAIR, CAMP POLK, N. C, c/o S.A.L. RAILWAY. Exhibits so billed will be delivered to the Fairgrounds without extra switching charges. Attention of exhibitors is called to tariff rules, governing the shipment of certain types of articles for exhibition at expositions and fairs, and providing for free return of such exhibits when accompanied by a certificate from the Manager of the Fair certifying that such shipment was on exhibition and ownership of same has not changed. Intending exhibitors should consult their local freight agent for particulars governing Fair shipments, as some types of exhibit material are not returned free and other conditions enter in if shipment is not re-turned direct. If your local agent is not able to give you full particulars, write the Manager of the State Fair. Division Directors and Department Superintendents will have full author-ity over allocation of space, and will have direct supervision of all exhibits which are considered on exhibition as a part of the Fair's attractions, sub-ject to use as these Directors and Superintendents see fit to add to the iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii' IN RALEIGH IT'S ALWAYS The SIR WALTER Raleigh's Very Finesf- • • • THE POLITICAL AND SOCIAL CENTER OF THE TAR HEEL STATE • • • 100 PER CENT AIR CONDITIONED Free Parking in the Sirpark Building A MEYER HOTEL ARTHUR E.

Livestock able to be led or driven, or which will follow, must participate in parades and group exhibitions as directed by the Department Superintendent. All livestock must be cared for by the exhibitor except as noted in the Junior Dairy Cattle and Market Cattle shows. Stalls and pens will be furnished bedding before the Fair, free of charge. Thereafter exhibitors will be required to furnish their own bedding and keep all stalls and pens clean. Feed and straw will be sold on the grounds at prevailing prices. When exhibit tags are issued by the Entry Department for each article entered, a stub with a duplicate number will be given the exhibitor to serve as his claim check to recover and secure the release of his exhibit. Claim checks should be guarded carefully, since Department Superintendents and Directors are not allowed to release any exhibit without presentation of the exhibit tag stub. If the claim check is lost, such loss should be reported promptly and it will be necessary for the exhibitor to furnish the Director of the Entry Department proof of ownership of the article on exhibit. Exhibits entered in the premium classes which are not claimed within one week after the close of the Fair will be considered to have been aban-doned by the exhibitor and will be disposed of as the Manager of the Fair sees fit. Other exhibits, and materials therein, including concession booths, which are not claimed by the exhibitor or concessionaire within 30 days after the end of the Fair will be considered to have been abandoned and will become the property of the State Fair. The Fair management reserves the right to reject any exhibit which does not reflect merit and which would not be a credit to both the exhibitor and the Fair. Also, the right is reserved to reject exhibits which are deemed objectionable or unsuitable for exhibition. All entries are accepted condi-tionally, pending inspection of the article or animal to be exhibited. Any article or animal which proves to be misrepresented or falsely classed will be rejected and the right of the exhibitor to further participation in the Fair will be denied. Division Directors, Department Superintendents, and/or Judges must re-port disqualification of entries to the Manager or Assistant Manager of the State Fair immediately after such action is taken. UNDER NO CIRCUM-STANCES WILL JUDGING BE CONSIDERED OFFICIAL AND PRE-MIUMS PAID IN A CLASS WHERE DISQUALIFICATION IS RECOM-MENDED UNTIL APPROVAL OF THE DISQUALIFICATION (S) IS OBTAINED FROM THE FAIR MANAGER OR ASSISTANT MANAGER. Promiscuous advertising is strictly prohibited. Exhibitors may advertise and distribute literature and free samples from their place of exhibit only, but may not sell any article or animal from their exhibit space without a permit from the Manager. The distribution of advertising matter which conflicts in any manner with a concession sold by the Management is pro-hibited. Commercial exhibitors and concessionaires are responsible for keeping the space in and around their exhibits, including unused space, aisles and roadways, clean and free of rubbish. An area of 10 feet around each exhibit 1963 North Carolina State Fair 15 booth and concession stand must be thoroughly cleaned by the exhibitor or concessionaire at the end of each Fair day. Failure to do so will be cause for cancellation of contract. No exhibit space assigned may be shared or sub-let without permission of the Fair manager. Exhibitors and Department Superintendents and Directors may have the exclusive use of the lawn in front of the Educational and Commercial exhibit building for parking until midnight, Sunday, October 13, 1963. Special parking facilities for the Livestock and Poultry Division will be provided at the west end of the Fairgrounds. JUDGING AND AWARDS Decision of the judges will be final, and no appeal will be considered except in cases of protest in writing, with strong evidence of fraud or violation of the rules of the Fair. Protests must be filed with the Division Superintendent not later than noon of the day following the award, ard must be accompanied by a protest fee of $5.00 which will be retained by the Fair if the protest is not sustained. The Division Superintendent will appoint a committee to consider the protest and all interested parties will be notified of the time of the hearing and will be given an opportunity to be heard. The rules of the International Association of Fairs and Ex-positions governing appeals will be those of the North Carolina Fair. Judges will not award premiums to any article or animal because of its mere presence. It must be individually worthy. It is not the policy of the Fair to encourage indifferent production of any kind, or to distribute premiums equally among exhibitors. No premium will be awarded to any exhibit that does not possess high intrinsic merit. Unless otherwise specified in the Department Rules and Regulations, NO EXHIBITOR MAY WIN MORE THAN TWO PREMIUMS IN ANY ONE INDIVIDUAL CLASS, AND NOT MORE THAN ONE PREMIUM IN ANY GROUP CLASS. No exhibitor may accompany judges during their deliberations except such attendants as are necessary to handle and show livestock and other such exhibits. Any exhibitor attempting to interfere with the judges during their adjudications, or who publicly expresses disapproval of the decision of the judges, will be excluded from further competition and any premiums previously won will be forfeited. Fraud or deception as to breeding, or in any other form, will be ex-posed and the exhibitor guilty of such violation will be excluded from further participation in the Fair, and all premiums previously won will be forfeited. Premiums will be paid only on the basis of the records of the judging reports, which will be signed by the judge and by the Department Superin- 16 1963 North Carolina State Fair tendent or Director. Ribbons will be securely attached to the articles upon which they were awarded, if possible, but the ribbons have no value in the pajrment of premiums since they may become detached and find their way on to the wrong exhibit. Entries made in wrong classes may be reclassed by the Department Superintendent, BUT ONLY IF SUCH RECLASSIFICATION IS MADE IN THE OFFICE OF, AND WITH THE APPROVAL OF, THE DI-RECTOR OF THE ENTRY DEPARTMENT. Records must be changed when entries are reclassed. If the records are altered and the entry de-partment files are not changed, premiums will be withheld. Judges, when requested, may give the reasons for their decisions em-bracing the value and desirable qualities of the exhibits to which they have awarded premiums. Judges will not award premiums or ribbons to any article or animal that does not qualify for one of the classes in the State Fair Premium List. Premiums will be paid to winning exhibitors as soon after the awards are made as it is possible to compile and check all reports. Premiums not collected during the Fair will be mailed to the exhibitor at the post office address given on his or her entry form. Errors in premium statements will be corrected until December 1, 1963, after which time the books of 1963 Fair are closed. The following colors of ribbons will be used to designate awards: Champion Royal Purple Reserve Champion Lavender First Premium Blue Second Premium Red Third Premium White Fourth Premium Pink Fifth Premium Yellow Sixth Premium Dark Green Seventh Premium Light Green Eighth Premium Tan Ninth Premium Gray Tenth Premium Light Blue 1963 North Carolina State Fair 17 Division I GENERAL EXHIBITS Department "A"-NORTH CAROLINA COUNTY PROGRAMS EXHIBITS Department "B"-4-H CLUB EXHIBITS Department "C"-VOCATIONAL EDUCATION EXHIBITS Qi m Department "D"-DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION SCHOOL EXHIBITS Zm Department "E"-NEGRO HOME DEMONSTRATION AND 4-H CLUB EXHIBITS ^ Department "F"—FIELD CROPS "^ Class 1—Corn H Class 2—Small Grains 2g Class 3—Forage Crops gg Class U—Legume Seeds 3 Class 5—Tobacco '^ Department "G"-HORTICULTURE Class 1—Fruits and Nuts Class 2 and 3—Vegetables Class U—Plants and Flowers Department "H"-ARTS AND PHOTOGRAPHY Department "l"-BEES AND HONEY GENERAL DIVISION DIRECTOR MR.

The following counties have been selected to present exhibits for the 1963 State Fair: Area I, Alleghany County; Area II, Rowan County; Area III, Onslow County; Area IV, Johnston County; and Area V, Lenoir County. Each county will select their own topic depicting a phase of their County Program and tying into the general theme established for the Fair.

C. Department of Agriculture, N. C. Department of Conservation and Development, N. C. Farm Bureau Federa-tion, Farmers Home Administration, Agriculture Stabilization and Con-servation, Division of Vocational Teaching in Agriculture and Home Making of the N. C. Department of Public Instruction, N. C. Federation of Home Demonstration Clubs, N. C. Rural Electrification Authority, Soil Conservation Service, the State Grange, and the Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service in Agriculture and Home Economics of N. C. State College. To encourage these County Programs and the county agricultural workers, the State Fair offers the following cash awards to the five counties putting on exhibits.

E. JONES, Extension State Agent ASSOCIATE SUPERINTENDENTS: L. R. JOHNSON, Extension District Agri. Agent MRS. M. M. BROWN, Exten. Asst. State Home Ec. Agent ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENTS: MRS. HELEN W. BRANFORD, Exten. Dist. Home Ec. Agent MRS. B. B. RAMSEUR, Exten. Home Ec. Specialist W. C. COOPER, Exten. District 4-H Club Agent HOME ECONOMICS EXTENSION WORK AMONG NEGRO FAMILIES IN NORTH CAROLINA General Aim: Home Demonstration work among Negroes in North Caro-lina is truly a story of growth and progress. It is a phase of the Agricul-tural Extension Service with a general aim to help people live better through improved personal, family, and community living. When The Work Started: The work was organized in 1917 at which time agents worked two months out of a year. In 1922, six counties were organized with a full time agent in each. Those counties were Wake, Wayne, Anson, Beaufort, Johnston, and Columbus. What is Taught: In the beginning years the major program emphases were gardening, canning, and cooking. The scope of program emphasis has broadened to include home management and family economics; housing and house furnishings; food conservation and home marketing; foods and nutrition; clothing; and family relations. It should be understood here however, that the programs carried in the counties vary with the needs and interests of the local people. More than 60,000 families were assisted directly or indirectly in making some desirable change in their homemaking practices during the past year. Present Personnel and County Coverage: Today there are 66 full time state and county Negro home economics extension workers with organized work in 52 counties. These counties make up more than 90 percent of the State's Negro rural farm population. 32 1963 North Carolina State Fair How Wo7-k is Done : Over the years, tremendous progress has been ob-served in the methods which agents use to reach homemakers and families Wherein during the early period most of the work was done through farm-home visits and home demonstration clubs, agents today are effectively us-ing a variety of personal, mass, and group methods in carrying programs to families. Our present use of the term "Extension Home Economics" in referring to our programs and women personnel is therefore a more ade-quate description of what is involved in this broad work. In spite of the home demonstration club being one of our traditional methods of doing the job, we think that it is basically sound in that there will always be a need to use this approach as a basis for organization participation, as well as a training setting for the development of lay leadership. Club Organization: The Home Demonstration State Council is the "mother" organization of our 667 clubs whose total membership is now 18,000. Ninety percent of the members are rural homemakers and the remaining are urban. HOME DEMONSTRATION CLUB EXHIBITS El—Sampson County $250 E2—Richmond County 250 E3—Halifax County 250 4-H CLUB WORK AMONG NEGROES IN NORTH CAROLINA Our 4-H Club work is a volunteer, out-of-school co-educational program. All activities are directed toward the personal development of each indi-vidual member in all areas that touch life—physical, social, economical and spiritual. Four-H Clubs are organized in 52 of North Carolina's 100 coun-ties, where we have Negro personnel. From one small club that was organized early in 1914 to the present, the enrollment has grown to a peak of 57,000 members. From the time the first club was organized up through 1960, a gi'eat deal of the club work was done in schools. Beginning in 1961, club work moved into the communi-ties for all activities, including regular monthly meetings. At the present time responsible adult citizens in each community are organizing them-selves to give guidance and direction to 4-H Clubs. on a community and neighborhood basis. In Community 4-H Club work. North Carolina Exten-sion Service's goal for 1966 is to have 50,000 club members, 2,500 clubs and 15,000 leaders. Experiences so far tend to indicate that we will have many more clubs than 2,500 and many more leaders than 15,000 in all areas of adult leadership promoting 4-H Clubs community by community in our state. Community 4-H work enriches and deepens the quality factors of the program for each member, which results in a larger contribution of club members to the total life of the community. In the State Fair will be examples of work the clubs are doing over the state, or ideas they are promoting in counties. These six exhibits will show accomplishments and ideas typical of 4-H work being carried out. Six counties representing the three organized extension districts for 1963 are Craven and Jones, Southeastern District; Moore and Rowan, Western Dis-trict; and Nash and Pasquotank, Northeastern District.

State College 44 1963 North Carolina State Fair Display and Grading Contest A display of all major standard grades of Flue-cured and Burley tobacco (about 122 samples of Flue-cured and about 104 samples of Burley). This will be one of the most complete displays of the standard grades of tobacco, the leading cash crop of the state, that is available to the public. The object of the exhibit is to improve the understanding of growers regarding the characteristics making up the various groups, quality and colors which constitute the Government grades of tobacco; to encourage a more careful study as to how far the grower should go in sorting the crop for the most satisfaction on the market; to emphasize the importance of taking advan-tage of grading as an aid in marketing the crops. For example, the support price is based on the grade; therefore, it is important for the grower to sort his crop so that tobacco will earn the highest possible support price. The N. C. State Fair is offering a further incentive to the public to stop and study this outstanding exhibit by offering substantial prizes for grading a set of samples on display. All individuals or teams of three persons are eligible to compete for the prizes. Individuals or members of teams who have had training or experience in commercial grading are not eligible to participate. (In case of ties, a drawing will be held to determine prize winners). 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th F155—Flue-cured individuals $ 50 $28 $17 $13 $10 $ 7 F156—Burley individuals 50 28 17 13 10 7 F157—Flue-cured team 150 85 50 40 30 20 F158—Burley team 150 85 50 40 30 20 1963 North Carolina State Fair 45 HORTICULTURE DEPARTMENT "G' SUPERINTENDENT: TO BE NAMED ASSOCIATE SUPERINTENDENTS: MR.

Dish gardens may be arranged on plates, platters, trays or dishes of any reasonable size. They will be judged on the basis of the craftsmanship of the exhibitor, the artistic qualities of the exhibit and the quality of materials used. The exhibit may represent Japanese gardens, landscapes, farms properly planted, homes or any other feature. Plant materials should predominate but any kind of material can be used. The foregoing suggestions apply also to terrariums. The type of exhibit desired in this class is much like the dish gardens, except that slightly different materials should be used, the materials being placed inside a glass container covered for the purpose of maintaining moist conditions and plants preferring such moist conditions, such as mosses, ferns, etc., should be used. Credit will be given by the judges to the craftsmanship, the condition of plant materials, the number of kinds in the exhibit, and the general artistic values of same. These exhibits should have unity, variety, propriety, coher-ence and finish.

We are especially happy to have at the State Fair friends from other states. The 1963 North Carolina State Fair has exhibits ranging from the relics of yesteryear to the most recent inventions for farm and industrial use, and instruments of the Space Age. On the fairgrounds can be found the symbols of 300 years of growth of the State of North Carolina. I am confident that visitors to the Fair will enjoy the highlights of North Carolina as demonstrated at the State Fair. With best wishes always. Sincerely TERRY SANFORD, Governor L.Y. BALLENTINE COMMISSIONER AN INVITATION FROM THE COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE This year marks the Tenth Anniversary of the inauguration of the POLICY OF A SPECIAL THEME FOR EACH NoRTH CAROLINA STATE Fa I R . Forestry, the theme chosen for 1963, is not only an industry of GREAT ECONOMIC IMPACT IN THIS STATE, BUT IT ALSO SYMBOLIZES THE GROWTH OF THE Fair itself. As a young sapling year by year adds to its breadth AND stature until IT BECOMES A MIGHTY TREE OF THE FOREST, SO YEAR BY year the fair continues to show a steady growth in all its dimensions. "Miracle of the Forest" is the title of the theme, and exhibits will present eye-opening evidence of the many forms this miracle takes. Forestry, the State's third largest industry, provides an annual product VALUED AT MORE THAN ONE BILLION DOLLARS. 1t PROVIDES JOBS FOR 80,000 North Carolinians and the total annual payroll of forest industries AMOUNTS to $270,000,000. North Carolina ranks first in the Nation in manufacture of wooden furniture and in hardwood plywood production. These are but a few of the many contributions of forestry which will be GIVEN graphic PRESENTATION IN THE THEME EXHIBITS. Visitors will find other miracles and marvels on every hand as the Fair presents both new features and new versions of old features in exhibits and entertainment throughout the six days, October 14-19. During the past year, improvements in the Fair's facilities have been made for the convenience and comfort of its patrons. Covered space has been added to the cattle barn to provide better arrangements for the Fat Steer Show, a new feature initiated last year. Parking facilities have been substantially increased. Additional walkways have BEEN black-topped. OtHER REPAIRS AND IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE AS funds permitted. Through your support and participation, you contribute directly to THE Fair's growth and progress. Come again this year, bring the whole family and your neighbor's family, to view with pride what you have contributed towai^d making this the finest State Fair in the South and to again make your contribution to its continued growth and expansion.

Please report any discourtesies by gatemen, concessionaires, showmen, or others connected with the Fair. If, for any reason, there is a misunder-standing about admission at gates or elsewhere, please pay the admission price asked, take a receipt for same, and come direct to the Manager's office. Please do not block traffic and delay others by prolonged arguments with ticket-sellers, gatemen and ticket-takers who are working on strict orders from the management and are not allowed to vary from them. Concessions and attractions are granted privileges on the grounds to supply the necessary wants, comforts, conveniences and pleasures of the patrons. The management will not accept or knowingly allow the con-tinuance of any concession, show or other attraction of a questionable nature or a demoralizing tendency, nor will any concession be permitted where the business is conducted in other than a legitimate and legal manner. Drunkenness, quarreling, or the use of profane or obscene language will not be allowed on the grounds. No begging will be permitted. No peddling, hawking or selling of any kind will be allowed in the build-ings or on the grounds except by special license obtained from the Manager. All dining halls, lunch stands, refreshment booths and other places dis-pensing food and beverage must be substantial in structure and neat in appearance. They must meet all health regulations and must sell only good, wholesome food and pure honest goods at reasonable prices which must be approved by the Fair management and displayed in a prominent place. The management of the State Fair reserves the right to amend, add to and interpret the foregoing and following Rules and Regulations, and to arbitrarily settle and determine all questions and differences in regard thereto, or otherwise arising out of, connected with, or incident to the Fair. In the event of conflict between the General Rules and the special rules which appear as headnotes of the various divisions and departments of the Fair, the latter will take precedence. Disregard of any rule, or misrepresentation on the part of the exhibitor, concessionaire or patrons will forfeit all premiums won, privileges granted, fees paid, and rights to further participation in the Fair. SERVICES The Southern Bell Telephone Company will maintain complete service and toll stations at convenient points on the Fairgrounds. Oz 8 1963 North Carolina State Fair An Information Bureau and office for reporting and recovery of lost and found articles will be maintained on the State Fairgrounds. This service is free and will be cheerfully given. Please do not ask for the use of the Public Address System to locate "lost" persons except small children and in emergencies, or where school bus drivers and other group leaders desire to announce departure times. An office for the use and convenience of representatives of the Press, and Radio and Television Stations, will be maintained with telephones, type-writers, and other facilities. It will be a pleasure to supply authentic in-formation of news value about the Fair, including lists of premium awards and photographs. Arrangements may be made in advance for special Press, Radio and Television coverage of the Fair by competent trained personnel. The American Red Cross will maintain an emergency hospital and first aid station at the Lounge, with trained attendants in charge at all times. Toilet facilities for men and women have been substantially increased in recent years. ATTENDANTS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CHARGE FOR USE OF THESE FACILITIES. In order for the State Fair to maintain a complete file of pictures for the use of Press and Television services, exhibitors and patrons are re-quested to cooperate with the Official Photographer of the Fair. Exhibitors are under no obligation to purchase pictures, but may arrange directly with the photographer for this service if they so desire. Decoration and sign painting service, at nominal charges, will be avail-able to exhibitors and can be arranged through the Information Desk at the Manager's office. A feed and forage concession will be operated for livestock exhibitors. Grain, hay, straw and other supplies will be available at prevailing prices. The Fair will furnish free the original bedding for each stall and pen, but exhibitors are required to care for and feed their own animals and they must keep stalls and pens clean and well bedded thereafter. The State Fair will employ police, guards and traffic directors, and will use diligence to promote safety and protection of patrons, and their exhibits and property on the Fairgrounds. But, under no circumstances will the Fair or any of its officers and employees be responsible for loss or damage to persons and their property (including entries, exhibits, automobiles in parking lots, and articles left in cars) because of accidents, theft, fire, the elements, or other conditions. Articles and animals shipped or mailed to the Fair for exhibit will be accepted only if ALL CHARGES ARE PREPAID.

Remember! All exhibits must be officially entered in the Fair, on official printed forms provided for that purpose, before the closing date for entries in the department. No article or animal will be entitled to space or con-sidered in the judging until proper entry has been made. Removal of ex-hibits before the date and time specified above will be cause for forfeit of all premiums won, all fees paid, and the right to further participation in the Fair. All exhibits will be numbered and recorded in the books of the proper department and class and exhibit tag with corresponding numbers will be issued. This tag must be securely attached to the exhibit and must remain on the exhibit throughout the Fair (except that exhibit tags issued for live-stock and poultry may be conspicuously displayed upon the stall, pen or coop). Exhibitors who make their entries well in advance of the opening of the Fair will receive their exhibit tags by mail; otherwise, they should first visit the Entry Department upon their arrival on the Fairgrounds and re-ceive their exhibit tags. Once the exhibit is numbered and tagged, it should be delivered to the Department Superintendent or Director, who will allocate space and either personally arrange the exhibit in a suitable and attractive display, or direct such action by the exhibitor. All exhibitors are urged to personally bring their exhibits to the Fair and enjoy the educational and recreational advantages of the annual ex-position. However, exhibits may be shipped or mailed to: MANAGER, N. C. STATE FAIR, P. 0. BOX 5565, RALEIGH, N. C, and they will be carefully handled, officially entered, tagged, and otherwise treated in the same manner as previously described. They will be given the same con-sideration with regard to display and judging as exhibits personally de-livered. All exhibits shipped or mailed MUST BE PREPAID. No transportation charges for express, postage, freight or drayage will be paid by the Fair. Shipments should be carefully labeled, accompanied by a bill of lading, and All carload shipments by freight, for exhibition purposes, should be billed as follows: FOR EXHIBIT, N. C. STATE FAIR, CAMP POLK, N. C, c/o S.A.L. RAILWAY. Exhibits so billed will be delivered to the Fairgrounds without extra switching charges. Attention of exhibitors is called to tariff rules, governing the shipment of certain types of articles for exhibition at expositions and fairs, and providing for free return of such exhibits when accompanied by a certificate from the Manager of the Fair certifying that such shipment was on exhibition and ownership of same has not changed. Intending exhibitors should consult their local freight agent for particulars governing Fair shipments, as some types of exhibit material are not returned free and other conditions enter in if shipment is not re-turned direct. If your local agent is not able to give you full particulars, write the Manager of the State Fair. Division Directors and Department Superintendents will have full author-ity over allocation of space, and will have direct supervision of all exhibits which are considered on exhibition as a part of the Fair's attractions, sub-ject to use as these Directors and Superintendents see fit to add to the iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii' IN RALEIGH IT'S ALWAYS The SIR WALTER Raleigh's Very Finesf- • • • THE POLITICAL AND SOCIAL CENTER OF THE TAR HEEL STATE • • • 100 PER CENT AIR CONDITIONED Free Parking in the Sirpark Building A MEYER HOTEL ARTHUR E.

Livestock able to be led or driven, or which will follow, must participate in parades and group exhibitions as directed by the Department Superintendent. All livestock must be cared for by the exhibitor except as noted in the Junior Dairy Cattle and Market Cattle shows. Stalls and pens will be furnished bedding before the Fair, free of charge. Thereafter exhibitors will be required to furnish their own bedding and keep all stalls and pens clean. Feed and straw will be sold on the grounds at prevailing prices. When exhibit tags are issued by the Entry Department for each article entered, a stub with a duplicate number will be given the exhibitor to serve as his claim check to recover and secure the release of his exhibit. Claim checks should be guarded carefully, since Department Superintendents and Directors are not allowed to release any exhibit without presentation of the exhibit tag stub. If the claim check is lost, such loss should be reported promptly and it will be necessary for the exhibitor to furnish the Director of the Entry Department proof of ownership of the article on exhibit. Exhibits entered in the premium classes which are not claimed within one week after the close of the Fair will be considered to have been aban-doned by the exhibitor and will be disposed of as the Manager of the Fair sees fit. Other exhibits, and materials therein, including concession booths, which are not claimed by the exhibitor or concessionaire within 30 days after the end of the Fair will be considered to have been abandoned and will become the property of the State Fair. The Fair management reserves the right to reject any exhibit which does not reflect merit and which would not be a credit to both the exhibitor and the Fair. Also, the right is reserved to reject exhibits which are deemed objectionable or unsuitable for exhibition. All entries are accepted condi-tionally, pending inspection of the article or animal to be exhibited. Any article or animal which proves to be misrepresented or falsely classed will be rejected and the right of the exhibitor to further participation in the Fair will be denied. Division Directors, Department Superintendents, and/or Judges must re-port disqualification of entries to the Manager or Assistant Manager of the State Fair immediately after such action is taken. UNDER NO CIRCUM-STANCES WILL JUDGING BE CONSIDERED OFFICIAL AND PRE-MIUMS PAID IN A CLASS WHERE DISQUALIFICATION IS RECOM-MENDED UNTIL APPROVAL OF THE DISQUALIFICATION (S) IS OBTAINED FROM THE FAIR MANAGER OR ASSISTANT MANAGER. Promiscuous advertising is strictly prohibited. Exhibitors may advertise and distribute literature and free samples from their place of exhibit only, but may not sell any article or animal from their exhibit space without a permit from the Manager. The distribution of advertising matter which conflicts in any manner with a concession sold by the Management is pro-hibited. Commercial exhibitors and concessionaires are responsible for keeping the space in and around their exhibits, including unused space, aisles and roadways, clean and free of rubbish. An area of 10 feet around each exhibit 1963 North Carolina State Fair 15 booth and concession stand must be thoroughly cleaned by the exhibitor or concessionaire at the end of each Fair day. Failure to do so will be cause for cancellation of contract. No exhibit space assigned may be shared or sub-let without permission of the Fair manager. Exhibitors and Department Superintendents and Directors may have the exclusive use of the lawn in front of the Educational and Commercial exhibit building for parking until midnight, Sunday, October 13, 1963. Special parking facilities for the Livestock and Poultry Division will be provided at the west end of the Fairgrounds. JUDGING AND AWARDS Decision of the judges will be final, and no appeal will be considered except in cases of protest in writing, with strong evidence of fraud or violation of the rules of the Fair. Protests must be filed with the Division Superintendent not later than noon of the day following the award, ard must be accompanied by a protest fee of $5.00 which will be retained by the Fair if the protest is not sustained. The Division Superintendent will appoint a committee to consider the protest and all interested parties will be notified of the time of the hearing and will be given an opportunity to be heard. The rules of the International Association of Fairs and Ex-positions governing appeals will be those of the North Carolina Fair. Judges will not award premiums to any article or animal because of its mere presence. It must be individually worthy. It is not the policy of the Fair to encourage indifferent production of any kind, or to distribute premiums equally among exhibitors. No premium will be awarded to any exhibit that does not possess high intrinsic merit. Unless otherwise specified in the Department Rules and Regulations, NO EXHIBITOR MAY WIN MORE THAN TWO PREMIUMS IN ANY ONE INDIVIDUAL CLASS, AND NOT MORE THAN ONE PREMIUM IN ANY GROUP CLASS. No exhibitor may accompany judges during their deliberations except such attendants as are necessary to handle and show livestock and other such exhibits. Any exhibitor attempting to interfere with the judges during their adjudications, or who publicly expresses disapproval of the decision of the judges, will be excluded from further competition and any premiums previously won will be forfeited. Fraud or deception as to breeding, or in any other form, will be ex-posed and the exhibitor guilty of such violation will be excluded from further participation in the Fair, and all premiums previously won will be forfeited. Premiums will be paid only on the basis of the records of the judging reports, which will be signed by the judge and by the Department Superin- 16 1963 North Carolina State Fair tendent or Director. Ribbons will be securely attached to the articles upon which they were awarded, if possible, but the ribbons have no value in the pajrment of premiums since they may become detached and find their way on to the wrong exhibit. Entries made in wrong classes may be reclassed by the Department Superintendent, BUT ONLY IF SUCH RECLASSIFICATION IS MADE IN THE OFFICE OF, AND WITH THE APPROVAL OF, THE DI-RECTOR OF THE ENTRY DEPARTMENT. Records must be changed when entries are reclassed. If the records are altered and the entry de-partment files are not changed, premiums will be withheld. Judges, when requested, may give the reasons for their decisions em-bracing the value and desirable qualities of the exhibits to which they have awarded premiums. Judges will not award premiums or ribbons to any article or animal that does not qualify for one of the classes in the State Fair Premium List. Premiums will be paid to winning exhibitors as soon after the awards are made as it is possible to compile and check all reports. Premiums not collected during the Fair will be mailed to the exhibitor at the post office address given on his or her entry form. Errors in premium statements will be corrected until December 1, 1963, after which time the books of 1963 Fair are closed. The following colors of ribbons will be used to designate awards: Champion Royal Purple Reserve Champion Lavender First Premium Blue Second Premium Red Third Premium White Fourth Premium Pink Fifth Premium Yellow Sixth Premium Dark Green Seventh Premium Light Green Eighth Premium Tan Ninth Premium Gray Tenth Premium Light Blue 1963 North Carolina State Fair 17 Division I GENERAL EXHIBITS Department "A"-NORTH CAROLINA COUNTY PROGRAMS EXHIBITS Department "B"-4-H CLUB EXHIBITS Department "C"-VOCATIONAL EDUCATION EXHIBITS Qi m Department "D"-DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION SCHOOL EXHIBITS Zm Department "E"-NEGRO HOME DEMONSTRATION AND 4-H CLUB EXHIBITS ^ Department "F"—FIELD CROPS "^ Class 1—Corn H Class 2—Small Grains 2g Class 3—Forage Crops gg Class U—Legume Seeds 3 Class 5—Tobacco '^ Department "G"-HORTICULTURE Class 1—Fruits and Nuts Class 2 and 3—Vegetables Class U—Plants and Flowers Department "H"-ARTS AND PHOTOGRAPHY Department "l"-BEES AND HONEY GENERAL DIVISION DIRECTOR MR.

W. SHOFFNER, Chairman PIERSON HASSELL MELVIN HEARNE As a feature series of exhibits of the North Carolina State Fair, this department is devoted to County Programs including Community and Area Development. Agricultural workers from selected counties are asked to take the lead in developing these exhibits to illustrate a phase of the agricul-tural program in their particular county. 1963 North Carolina State Fair 19 The North Carolina Board of Farm Organizations and Agencies, which is sponsoring these exhibits, has invited five counties to arrange and present exhibits depicting certain phases of their programs for better farming and better rural family living. One county will represent each of the five areas established by this Board. The following counties have been selected to present exhibits for the 1963 State Fair: Area I, Alleghany County; Area II, Rowan County; Area III, Onslow County; Area IV, Johnston County; and Area V, Lenoir County. Each county will select their own topic depicting a phase of their County Program and tying into the general theme established for the Fair. The five counties were chosen and invited to participate on the basis of recommendations of the district representatives of the following organiza-tions and agencies which comprise the North Carolina Board of Farm Organizations and Agencies: N. C. Department of Agriculture, N. C. Department of Conservation and Development, N. C. Farm Bureau Federa-tion, Farmers Home Administration, Agriculture Stabilization and Con-servation, Division of Vocational Teaching in Agriculture and Home Making of the N. C. Department of Public Instruction, N. C. Federation of Home Demonstration Clubs, N. C. Rural Electrification Authority, Soil Conservation Service, the State Grange, and the Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service in Agriculture and Home Economics of N. C. State College. To encourage these County Programs and the county agricultural workers, the State Fair offers the following cash awards to the five counties putting on exhibits. These exhibits will be competitive. A high standard of performance will be required and if the judges and Fair management decide the exhibit is not up to standard as described in the score card, no premium will be paid.

E. JONES, Extension State Agent ASSOCIATE SUPERINTENDENTS: L. R. JOHNSON, Extension District Agri. Agent MRS. M. M. BROWN, Exten. Asst. State Home Ec. Agent ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENTS: MRS. HELEN W. BRANFORD, Exten. Dist. Home Ec. Agent MRS. B. B. RAMSEUR, Exten. Home Ec. Specialist W. C. COOPER, Exten. District 4-H Club Agent HOME ECONOMICS EXTENSION WORK AMONG NEGRO FAMILIES IN NORTH CAROLINA General Aim: Home Demonstration work among Negroes in North Caro-lina is truly a story of growth and progress. It is a phase of the Agricul-tural Extension Service with a general aim to help people live better through improved personal, family, and community living. When The Work Started: The work was organized in 1917 at which time agents worked two months out of a year. In 1922, six counties were organized with a full time agent in each. Those counties were Wake, Wayne, Anson, Beaufort, Johnston, and Columbus. What is Taught: In the beginning years the major program emphases were gardening, canning, and cooking. The scope of program emphasis has broadened to include home management and family economics; housing and house furnishings; food conservation and home marketing; foods and nutrition; clothing; and family relations. It should be understood here however, that the programs carried in the counties vary with the needs and interests of the local people. More than 60,000 families were assisted directly or indirectly in making some desirable change in their homemaking practices during the past year. Present Personnel and County Coverage: Today there are 66 full time state and county Negro home economics extension workers with organized work in 52 counties. These counties make up more than 90 percent of the State's Negro rural farm population. 32 1963 North Carolina State Fair How Wo7-k is Done : Over the years, tremendous progress has been ob-served in the methods which agents use to reach homemakers and families Wherein during the early period most of the work was done through farm-home visits and home demonstration clubs, agents today are effectively us-ing a variety of personal, mass, and group methods in carrying programs to families. Our present use of the term "Extension Home Economics" in referring to our programs and women personnel is therefore a more ade-quate description of what is involved in this broad work. In spite of the home demonstration club being one of our traditional methods of doing the job, we think that it is basically sound in that there will always be a need to use this approach as a basis for organization participation, as well as a training setting for the development of lay leadership. Club Organization: The Home Demonstration State Council is the "mother" organization of our 667 clubs whose total membership is now 18,000. Ninety percent of the members are rural homemakers and the remaining are urban. HOME DEMONSTRATION CLUB EXHIBITS El—Sampson County $250 E2—Richmond County 250 E3—Halifax County 250 4-H CLUB WORK AMONG NEGROES IN NORTH CAROLINA Our 4-H Club work is a volunteer, out-of-school co-educational program. All activities are directed toward the personal development of each indi-vidual member in all areas that touch life—physical, social, economical and spiritual. Four-H Clubs are organized in 52 of North Carolina's 100 coun-ties, where we have Negro personnel. From one small club that was organized early in 1914 to the present, the enrollment has grown to a peak of 57,000 members. From the time the first club was organized up through 1960, a gi'eat deal of the club work was done in schools. Beginning in 1961, club work moved into the communi-ties for all activities, including regular monthly meetings. At the present time responsible adult citizens in each community are organizing them-selves to give guidance and direction to 4-H Clubs. on a community and neighborhood basis. In Community 4-H Club work. North Carolina Exten-sion Service's goal for 1966 is to have 50,000 club members, 2,500 clubs and 15,000 leaders. Experiences so far tend to indicate that we will have many more clubs than 2,500 and many more leaders than 15,000 in all areas of adult leadership promoting 4-H Clubs community by community in our state. Community 4-H work enriches and deepens the quality factors of the program for each member, which results in a larger contribution of club members to the total life of the community. In the State Fair will be examples of work the clubs are doing over the state, or ideas they are promoting in counties. These six exhibits will show accomplishments and ideas typical of 4-H work being carried out. Six counties representing the three organized extension districts for 1963 are Craven and Jones, Southeastern District; Moore and Rowan, Western Dis-trict; and Nash and Pasquotank, Northeastern District.

State College 44 1963 North Carolina State Fair Display and Grading Contest A display of all major standard grades of Flue-cured and Burley tobacco (about 122 samples of Flue-cured and about 104 samples of Burley). This will be one of the most complete displays of the standard grades of tobacco, the leading cash crop of the state, that is available to the public. The object of the exhibit is to improve the understanding of growers regarding the characteristics making up the various groups, quality and colors which constitute the Government grades of tobacco; to encourage a more careful study as to how far the grower should go in sorting the crop for the most satisfaction on the market; to emphasize the importance of taking advan-tage of grading as an aid in marketing the crops. For example, the support price is based on the grade; therefore, it is important for the grower to sort his crop so that tobacco will earn the highest possible support price. The N. C. State Fair is offering a further incentive to the public to stop and study this outstanding exhibit by offering substantial prizes for grading a set of samples on display. All individuals or teams of three persons are eligible to compete for the prizes. Individuals or members of teams who have had training or experience in commercial grading are not eligible to participate. (In case of ties, a drawing will be held to determine prize winners). 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th F155—Flue-cured individuals $ 50 $28 $17 $13 $10 $ 7 F156—Burley individuals 50 28 17 13 10 7 F157—Flue-cured team 150 85 50 40 30 20 F158—Burley team 150 85 50 40 30 20 1963 North Carolina State Fair 45 HORTICULTURE DEPARTMENT "G' SUPERINTENDENT: TO BE NAMED ASSOCIATE SUPERINTENDENTS: MR.

Dish gardens may be arranged on plates, platters, trays or dishes of any reasonable size. They will be judged on the basis of the craftsmanship of the exhibitor, the artistic qualities of the exhibit and the quality of materials used. The exhibit may represent Japanese gardens, landscapes, farms properly planted, homes or any other feature. Plant materials should predominate but any kind of material can be used. The foregoing suggestions apply also to terrariums. The type of exhibit desired in this class is much like the dish gardens, except that slightly different materials should be used, the materials being placed inside a glass container covered for the purpose of maintaining moist conditions and plants preferring such moist conditions, such as mosses, ferns, etc., should be used. Credit will be given by the judges to the craftsmanship, the condition of plant materials, the number of kinds in the exhibit, and the general artistic values of same. These exhibits should have unity, variety, propriety, coher-ence and finish.
