NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.
Condition and Management of the North Carolina
Agricultural Society.
The condition and management of the Xorth Carolina Agri­cultural
Societ:" is so little known and Ulldehltood, that it haa
been deemed expedient by the Prcllidellt and Executive COIn.
mittee to make 11 plain stahmleut of facts, and the undersigned
to wbom has been af:l8igncd this duty. beg leave to lOublllit the
following':
WhelL it was decided 10 sell tho old Fair Grounds and pur­chase
the pr.e:scllt site, it wall found that there WM a debt au
the Society of about six thOlllli\nd doilarH. The pnrchll!5o of the
now grounds and tho erection of thu vcry bamlROmo and com­plete
buildingawhich we now have, increased the debt to about
finy-fivo thoutmnd dollars. Thill. to ordillnry men wonld Fel.'m
an insurmountable barrier, but the rre~ident, Col. '1'_ ),1. Holt.
BCcondedJ by his able and liIJel-al E:'(ecutive Committeo put
their shoulders to the wheel and tho dnbt has been reduced to
about twouty-nine thollFl/lnd dollal't!_ Thu!:; you will see, that
an immense work has been n('compliRhed by these !;c\f-s'\crific­ing
men, for be it remombered that fhe President and E:,(pcll­tive
Committee have given their IJames and are carrying the
debt, and devc.te milch timo and energy to working up the
I'IUCCC~S t)f the Fnir, and this too without 0110 cent of remunt:ra­tiOIl
or profit of any 8ort, but lilly uftE-r cla:_, with their 1ll0lWY.
brains, Ilnd caergy do the.«e g(,lltiE'lllcn laoor with ODC ol~tlut
only in view, namE-ly : tho ad\-llllcl'UleJlt of th", Itgricuitllrail.llHl
mechnhi('al interest of the State.
:Mueh J!\ult is found, and llilfortllllatdy many stand rcady to
coudomn, and critizise theil' acU~, whcn, if they would come
forward and lend a. helping hand, all would be well. So lit11",
diHpoa,lition to assiat the i-!ociety hUll been shown by our ('it i­zena,
that it is with great diffictllty the Committee arc nl)\(> to
procure the assistance of gentlemen as SlIperl'isol'P and Judges,
" .KOTlel; TO TilE l'CUI.IC.
and it frequently flO happens that thoy are compellt!d to 8~lect
lilly body as JUdgCM without regard to their kno, ... ledgo of the
article to oe pasfled Qll, hence the dissnti!lfnction and disappoint­ment
that so often takes plaef>, ami nil the blame is laid to the
Committee.
It h~ cbarged thnt the Executi\'e Committee are not filrmcri,
01' mecilaaic8, they aro not all farmera or medll~nictl. but there
al'O 11 number of each on tho Committee, but there iA not a
member of the Committee who will not cheerfully retire, if
there are th096 who will como forward and tako the respollsi.
bility they have 8i\!tHned.
The ulldcr~iglled hope that tbo few filets hero stated, will
illriuce the public to appreciate more fnlly the Jabor snd trouble
of'lhe President :'Iod Executive Committee, and will induce 8.
gC'llcrnl disposition to render all p01';f~iiJlo assistanCG to mnk.
ollr Fair for 1875 a grand success.
