CHAMBERS 1966 North Carolina State Fair 7 Information And General Rules For Exhibitors And Patrons Exhibitors and patrons are sincerely requested to make constructive criticisms and offer helpful suggestions toward bettering any part or de-partment of this, YOUR STATE FAIR. 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. Parties owning buildings upon the State Fair grounds must notify the manager thirty (30) days prior to the opening of the Fair as to whether they desire to occupy the same or not, and if so, make arrangements with the superintendent of the department for such occupancy. Failure to com-ply with the provisions of this rule will cause the forfeiture of the use of such building or buildings to the Fair management. Any party or parties, firm or corporation owning buildings or material upon the State Fair grounds without lease, or whose lease has expired, who shall fail to remove same upon order of the manager within the time specified, shall forfeit all claim thereto, and the Fair management may take charge of and remove same, charging expense attached thereto to the owner or owners thereof, which expense or claim must be paid before ma-terial is released to the owner. 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. 8 1966 North Carolina State 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. 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. Adequate toilet facilities for men and women are maintained throughout the grounds. 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 aval-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 stall 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. Be sure packages mailed 1966 North Carolina State Fair 9 or shipped are properly addressed in accordance with instructions for shipment listed later in this section under "Exhibits and Exhibitors." INCOMING MAIL and parcels addressed to exhibitors, patrons, conces-sionaires and others connected with or attending the Fair should be called for at the Manager's office. No responsibility can be assumed for delivery. Messages telephoned, telegraphed or delivered to the Manager's office for persons exhibiting at, attending or connected in any way with the Fair, will be accepted for delivery only at the convenience of the Office Staff, and as time permits. No responsibility will be assumed for delay or non-delivery of such messages. OUTGOING MAIL may be dispatched and stamps may be purchased at the STATE FAIR sub-station operated by the Raleigh Post Office located at the entrance of the Red Cross LOUNGE BUILDING in the "WORLD'S LARGEST MAIL BOX". The mail service window is open daily during Fair Week from 11:00 A.M. until 5:00 P.M. Passes are issued only to exhibitors who must constantly attend their exhibits, or as a courtesy for some service rendered for which the State Fair is unable to pay. To these the Fair management is grateful and ask that the use of such passes be confined to the person to whom they are issued. Sufficient electric light and power service will be furnished by the Fair to properly illuminate and service the exhibition buildings and grounds. Exhibitors and concessionaries requiring individual electric light and power service in their booths and stands may obtain same upon written application and payment when service is installed and connected. ONLY THE OFFICIAL STATE FAIR ELECTRICIANS MAY MAKE INSTAL-LATIONS AND CONNECTIONS. Where outside wiring is necessary, a fixed charge of $5.00 will be made for each 50 feet or fraction thereof for making connection. If located inside of building where wiring exists, any additional labor or material must be paid for by the applicant. No service will be given for less than minimum charge of $5.00. The charge for electric current for power and lights will be as follows: 6tf per kilowatt hour. Motors will be rated on amperage per kilowatt hour. The current is alternating single phase, or 3-phase, 60 cycles, 120-220 volts. Electric stoves, grills, percolators, waffle irons, and all electrical equip-ment will be charged for at the regular rate. These must not be connected until Fair Electrician has granted permission. Trucks and other vehicles to service exhibits and concession stands will be permitted on the grounds ONLY between the hours of midnight and 10:00 a.m., and between 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. daily. Permits for entry of service trucks and vehicles must be obtained in advance of the opening of the Fair from the Manager's office. Additional information to that contained in this publication, and inter-pretation of any of the rules and regulations of the Fair may be obtained by writing or communicating with: MANAGER, N. C. STATE FAIR, P. O. BOX 5565, RALEIGH, N. C. (Telephone: 832-7549). 10 1966 North Carolina State Fair ENTRIES MAKE YOUR ENTRIES EARLY!

Certain poultry classes are open to exhibitors of Florida, Georgia, Mary-land, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia, and other states, if space allows, as well as North Carolina. In all other divisions and departments competition is LIMITED TO RESIDENTS OF NORTH CAROLINA. NO DEPARTMENT SUPERINTENDENT OR DIRECTOR, OR MEM-BERS OF THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILIES MAY ENTER EXHIBITS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE DEPARTMENTS. All entries (with exceptions noted in the Livestock Division for group classes) must be made in the name of the owner, breeder, manufacturer, grower, producer or on whose skill the exhibit represents. A firm, to be entitled to exhibit as such, must have been organized not less than 30 days prior to the closing date for entries, and such firm must have been organized as a bona fide firm for the purpose of producing, or buying and selling the articles or animals it proposes to exhibit in the name of such firm. A firm will be regarded as one exhibitor. Official printed forms MUST BE USED in making applications for entry. One will be found in the back of this book. One side of the form is for Live-stock entries ONLY; the other side is for entries in all other departments of the Fair. USE A SEPARATE FORM FOR ENTRIES IN EACH DE-PARTMENT. Be sure to fill out the application form completely, accurately and legibly. Give your rural route number, post office box number, or city street address. Additional application forms are available upon request to: MANAGER, N. C. STATE FAIR, P. O. BOX 5565, RALEIGH, N. C. Incomplete entry forms will be returned for correction if there is time to do so, but REMEMBER: No article or animals will be entitled to exhibit space until proper entry has been made, and no entry will be accepted after the closing date listed for the department. Once an entry is made, it cannot be changed except where it is improperly classed or a mistake has been made in copying the original entry—in which event the changes can be made only with the permission of the Department Superintendent or Dirctor in charge, AND THEN ONLY IN THE OF-FICE OF THE "ENTRY DIRECTOR." If the records are altered and 1966 North Carolina State Fair 11 do not conform with the information on file in the Entry Department, pay-ment of premiums will be withheld. No person except personnel of the Entry Department will be allowed to see the entries, or have access to the entry books, until after the awards are made. The same article or animal cannot be entered for more than one premium number (except as otherwise stated in the Special Department Rules and Regulations). Collections and displays must be made up of specimens other than those entered in single (individual) classes unless otherwise noted. No entry fees are required in any department, except that livestock, poultry, pigeon, and rabbit exhibitors must include payment of stall, pen and coop fees with their applications for entry. (SEE HEADNOTES OF THESE DEPARTMENTS FOR SCALE OF FEES.) 12 1966 North Carolina State Fair Application forms for entry should be mailed to: MANAGER, N. C. STATE FAIR, P. 0. Box 5565, Raleigh, N. C. After October 3, 1966, the Entry Department will be staffed to receive applications for entry in person. EXHIBITS AND EXHIBITORS Exhibits Must be in Place: Women's Departments (Culinary, Clothing and House Furnishings), Sunday, October 9, 1966, at 6:00 p.m. Cut Flowers (Horticulture Department), Monday, October 10, 1966, at 11:00 a.m. Arts and Crafts, Saturday, October 8, 1966, at 6:00 p.m. Livestock, Monday, October 10, 1966, at noon, except Market Cattle—Sunday, October 9, 1966, at 6:00 p.m. ALL OTHER DIVISIONS AND DEPARTMENTS, Sunday, October 9, 1966, at 6:00 p.m. Release of Exhibits: Livestock, Poultry, Pigeons and Rabbits, Saturday, October 15, at 4:00 p.m. All Other Divisions and Departments, Saturday, October 15, at 5:00 p.m. POSITIVELY NO EXHIBITS RELEASED BEFORE SPECIFIED DATE AND TIME. UNCLAIMED EXHIBITS FROM COMPETITIVE DEPARTMENTS, will be considered abandoned if not called for within one week after the official closing of the Fair, and may be disposed of as the Manager of the Fair sees fit. 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. O. BOX 5565, RALEIGH, N. C, and they will be carefully handled, officially entered, tagged, and otherwise treated in the 1966 North Carolina State Fair 13 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, accompained by a bill of lading, and properly identified inside and outside the package as to the department, class and premium number under which they have been previously entered. They should be shipped or mailed at least a week or 10 days prior to the opening of the Fair. The management will not be responsible for delayed shipments which arrive at the Fair too late to be considered in the judging. 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. illllllllllllMIIIIIIIIIMIMIIHIIIMIIIIIIItlH I Ml mill HIM I II 1 1 M Mill Ill M II IIMIIM III llllllili IIIM MUM M III II 1 1 II ..- [ IN RALEIGH IT'S ALWAYS | The SIR WALTER | Raleigh's Very Finest i • • • THE POLITICAL AND SOCIAL CENTER OF THE TAR HEEL STATE 100 PER CENT AIR CONDITIONED Free Parking in the Sirpork Building 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 MAN-AGER. 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. 1966 North Carolina State Fair 15 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 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 9, 1966. 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, and must be accompained 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 1966 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 payment 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, 1966, after which time the books of 1966 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, and above Light Blue 1966 North Carolina State Fair 17 Division I GENERAL EXHIBITS Department "A"-NORTH CAROLINA COMMUNITY PROGRAMS EXHIBITS Department "B"-4-H CLUB EXHIBITS Department "C'-VOCATIONAL EDUCATION EXHIBITS Department "D"-DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION SCHOOL EXHIBITS Department "F"—FIELD CROPS Class 1—Corn Class 2—Small Grains Class S—Forage Crops Class U—Legume Seeds Class 5—Tobacco Department "G"-HORTICULTURE Class 1—Fruits and Nuts Class 2 and S—Vegetables Class h—Plants and Flowers Department "H"-ARTS AND PHOTOGRAPH Department "l"-BEES AND HONEY GENERAL DIVISION DIRECTOR J.

State U. 42 1966 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 F137—Flue-cured individuals $ 50 $28 $17 $13 $10 $ 7 F138—Burley individuals 50 28 17 13 10 7 F139—Flue-cured team 150 85 50 40 30 20 F140—Burley team 150 85 50 40 30 20 HORTICULTURE DEPARTMENT "G" SUPERINTENDENT: HENRY M.

Additional copies are available upon request. Use separate forms for entries in EACH CLASS—"1" Fruits and Nuts, "2 and 3" Vegetables, and "4" Plants and Flowers—of this de-partment, and separate forms for entries in each other department of the Fair.

Give your rural route number, post office box number, or city street address. „ List the Department Letter ("G" for Horticulture) and the Class Number ("1" for Fruits or Nuts, "2 and 3" for Vegetables, and "4" for Plants or Flowers) for which each entry is made. Also, list the premium number and the description of the article, exactly as shown in the Premium List. If entries are received sufficiently in advance of the Fair to permit mail-ing, Entry Tags will be forwarded to exhibitors at their home address. Otherwise, these Entry Tags should be picked up at the Entry Department immediately upon arrival on the Fairgrounds. An Entry Tag must be at-tached to each exhibit before it is presented in the Department for display. As far as possible, it is urged that all Horticultural Products be brought in and set up by the exhibitor. Where it is not possible, shipments should be made in time to reach the Fairgrounds no later than Saturday, October 8, and should be addressed to: Superintendent, Horticulture Department, N. C. State Fair, P. O. Box 5565, Raleigh, N. C. Where it is not possible to personally bring the products to the Fair and arrange them, the Superintendents will be glad to arrange the products in the most attractive manner possible. However, they will not pack box or basket entries for exhibit. Exhibits mailed or shipped to the Fair should be carefully labeled to show the name and address of the exhibitor, and the nature, and class in which entered, of the contents of the package. The State Fair will furnish PLATES, ONE QUART CONTAINERS, CORRUGATED CARTONS FOR SWEET POTATOES, AND TRAYS for exhibits, but no other containers. The number of specimens for each PLATE display is specified in the premium list. Standard size tray, HVz x 18 inches inside measurements, and 3 inches deep, will be used. Exhibitors should make a tray of the required dimensions and pack the exhibit to determine the number of specimens required. At least one extra specimen for each plate, and three or four extra specimens for each tray, should be brought or shipped to the Fair to allow for possible damage in transit. To insure uniformity in exhibit material and to facilitate judging, the following sizes for apple varieties will be recognized: Variety Diameter Arkansas 3 to 3% inches Bonum 2% to 3 inches Delicious and named bud sports 2% to 3^4 inches Grimes 2% to 3% inches Jonathan 2% to 3 inches Golden Delicious 2%, to 3% inches Rome and named bud sports 3 to ZVt. inches Stayman and named bud sports 3 to 3% inches Winesap 2% to 3 inches York and named bud sports 3% to 3% inches 46 1966 North Carolina State Fair Fruits and vegetables to be exhibited in plates and trays should be care-fully wrapped and packed for shipment to the Fair. Wrap separately in paper and pack firmly in a box, taking care to avoid bruising. Label each variety plainly and put in dividers to keep varieties separated. Do not use hay, fodder, excelsior or any other dusty packing material. Quality — Not Quantity In selecting Horticultural products for exhibit, choose only those speci-mens that are of uniformly good quality, form and color, true to type, and free from all insect and disease blemishes, and free from cuts and bruises. Premiums offered for the best collection of fruits or vegetables will not be awarded for a mere pile or for the greatest number of varieties, BUT MAINLY ON THE BASIS OF QUALITY. Do not knock or shake fruit from the tree, but pick each specimen by hand, taking care not to pull out the stem. Products should be exhibited as nearly as possible in their natural state, and no preference will be given in the judging for highly polished fruits or vegetables. Entries of Commercial containers of apples and sweet potatoes should be graded to uniform marketable size, high color, smoothness, trueness to type, freedom from cuts and bruises, and free from insect and fungus blemishes. They should be properly packed and faced in standard containers. Entries of "Collections" and under "Any Other Variety" must be cor-rectly named by the exhibitor. In the nomenclature of fruits, the names adopted by the American Pomological Society shall rule, and no variety will be accepted that has not been admitted to their catalogue, except in the case of seedlings never before exhibited. Awards and Judging No awards will be made for unworthy specimens, where quality is lacking, or where any of the Rules and Regulations governing these exhibits are disregarded. No article entered for competition in any class will be permitted to compete for a premium in any other class. AN EXHIBITOR CANNOT COMPETE FOR MORE THAN ONE PRIZE IN ANY CLASS. No exhibitor will be allowed to discuss exhibits with the judges, or to interfere in any way while the judges are at work. 1966 North Carolina State Fair 47 Class 1—Fruits and Nuts APPLES G 1—COMMERCIAL DISPLAY 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th 9th 10th $150. 100. 75. 50. 40. 30. 25. 20. 10. 5.

RULES AND REGULATIONS Except in cases of conflict, in which event the following Rules and Regu-lations will prevail, the General Rules and Regulations of the Fair will govern this Division. BE SURE TO READ THOSE TN THE FRONT OF THIS BOOK. Some—but not all—are repeated herewith for emphasis, and others of the following Rules and Regulations apply only to this Division. Entries MAKE YOUR ENTRIES EARLY! The right is reserved and will be used to reject entries received after all available space is taken. Even though this occurs before specified time for closing of entries. Official printed forms must be used in making applications for entry. One will be found in the back of this book. Additional copies are available upon request. Use a separate form for making entries in each department. Be sure to fill in the application form completely, accurately and legibly. Give 1966 North Carolina State Fair 73 your rural route number, post office box number, or city street address. Indicate on the form the total number of animals you will exhibit, includ-ing nurse animals, and the total number of stall spaces (four feet wide) or pens (6x8 feet in size) you will require, including those to be used for gear, feed and bedding. List the class number, as indicated in the premium list, for which each entry is made. Use a separate line for each animal. Do not make entries in the Championship classes. Indicate if you plan to make entries in the group and/or herd classes, but it is not necessary to name the animals which will make up your group or herd entries until after the judging of the individual classes. Entries in the group and herd classes must have previously been exhibited in the individual classes. List, also, on the application form the name (or ear tag number) and registry number of each animal entered, its date of birth, its sex, the names (or ear tag numbers) and registry numbers of its sire and dam, and the name of the breeder.

Also, all dairy cattle exhibitors must show official evidence of ownership of animal prior to showing. (See exceptions to this rule for group classes only in some departments). Fees Stall or pen fees are required for all entries in the senior and open classes of the Livestock Division. Entries exclusively in the junior livestock shows are not subject to stall or pen fees, and the first three placed animals in each Junior Show class are eligible to compete in the Senior and Open Shows without payment of any fee.

Reservations will not be made unless accompanied by the required fee, and REMEMBER: THE RIGHT IS RESERVED TO REJECT ENTRIES RECEIVED AFTER ALL AVAILABLE SPACE IS TAKEN. ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED IN THE ORDER RECEIVED. Be sure to indicate on the form the total number of stall spaces or pens you will require, including those to be used for nurse animals, and for gear, feed and bedding. Include remittances for these extra stall spaces or pens you will require, as well as for those actually required for the animals you will exhibit in the competitive classes. Animals duly entered in the show which will be exhibited competitively in the show ring will have priority on stall and pen space; thereafter, should additional space be available, display animals will be assigned stall or pen space.

A copy of the approved health certificate shall be forwarded to the State Veterinarian, N. C. Department of Agri-culture, Raleigh, N. C, before the arrival of the animals. The health certifi-cate shall state that no animal in the shipment is infected with or has been recently exposed to any infectious or transmissable disease, and shall con-tain the names and addresses of the consignor and consignee, with an accu-rate description or identification of each individual animal. "In addition to the above regulation, the health status of the individuals shipped and the entire herd of origin, shall be as follows: BRUCELLOSIS OR BANG'S DISEASE— (1) Herds officially certified brucellosis-free or qualified negative herds in modified certified brucellosis areas in which all the animals in the herd over six (6) months of age, except official calfhood vaccinates under thirty (30) months of age, were negative to an official test for brucellosis within twelve (12) months of entry or two (2) official negative brucellosis ring tests within twelve months, and the animals for entry except official calfhood vaccinates twenty-four (24) months of age or under were negative to an official blood test within thirty (30) days of date of entry; provide, official calf-hood vaccinates under twenty-four (24) months of age classed as heavy springers or those that have calved shall be blood tested and negative to brucellosis prior to entry.

(This paragraph applies to herds other than brucellosis certified herds that are not located in a modified certified brucellosis area.) (3) Identified officially calfhood vaccinated cattle showing a blood-serum agglutination titer of 1-50 or less are classified as negative under the State-Federal regulation governing the interpretation of the brucellosis test.

The recommended dosage of a licensed killed virus hog cholera vaccine is not less than 21 days or more than 6 months. This is the only type of vaccine recommended for use in bred sows and gilts. Breeding swine 5 months of age or over are required to be blood tested and negative to bru-cellosis within 30 days of admission to Fair, provided swine originating from validated brucellosis-free herds need not be tested for brucellosis. Sheep "All sheep entered must be in apparently healthy condition. The owner must certify that they are from premises where no known contagious or infectious disease of sheep exists. The right is reserved to reject an entry or to remove same after entered should the State Veterinarian find the animal affected with a communicable or parasitic disease." Exhibits and Exhibitors The Fair management will use diligence to insure the safety of livestock entered for exhibition or display, but under no circumstances will it be re-sponsible for loss, injury, theft or damage by fire, lightning, wind, or any other agency, to such livestock on exhibition or display. All livestock on exhibition must be cared for by the exhibitor (except entires in Junior Dairy Cattle show.) All stalls and pens will be well bedded by the Fair, free of charge. Thereafter, exhibitors will be required to furnish their own bedding. Feed, forage and straw will be on sale at the Fairgrounds at reasonable prices. The Fair reserves the right to discriminate against both excessive obes-ity, which cannot be a profitable condition for breeding animals, and ex-cessive leanness, in which condition animals are unfit for exhibition. 76 1966 North Carolina State Fair No barren animals will be eligible in breeding classes. An affidavit that an animal is a breeder must be furnished on request. All cattle must be halter-broken. No dairy bull over one year of age will be allowed on the grounds without a ring in his nose and must not be led from his stall except by a staff, rope or chain attached to or leading through the ring. Boars over one year of age must have had their tusks removed. Exhibitors must keep their animals uncovered between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. each day of the Fair. Premium money will be withheld from exhibitors violating this rule, except in case of sickness of animals or inclement weather, and then only on authorization of the Superintendent. A great educational feature of the Fair is the exhibitions and parades of approved livestock by breeds and ages. Exhibitors refusing for any cause not meeting with the approval of the management to lead out animals for parade will not only forfeit all premiums won, but will be barred from further participation in the Fair, and will be required to remove their stock from the Fairgrounds within six hours after such refusal, and will forfeit all fees paid. Misrepresentation as to breeding and irregularity in showing will be exposed and any premium won by such exhibitor will be withheld. Certifi-cates of registration must be shown on demand of the Livestock Superin-tendent. Any artificial means of removing or remedying physical defects or con-formation in exhibition animals, such as lifting or filling under the skin, will be considered fraud and deception. All anim

CHAMBERS 1966 North Carolina State Fair 7 Information And General Rules For Exhibitors And Patrons Exhibitors and patrons are sincerely requested to make constructive criticisms and offer helpful suggestions toward bettering any part or de-partment of this, YOUR STATE FAIR. 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. Parties owning buildings upon the State Fair grounds must notify the manager thirty (30) days prior to the opening of the Fair as to whether they desire to occupy the same or not, and if so, make arrangements with the superintendent of the department for such occupancy. Failure to com-ply with the provisions of this rule will cause the forfeiture of the use of such building or buildings to the Fair management. Any party or parties, firm or corporation owning buildings or material upon the State Fair grounds without lease, or whose lease has expired, who shall fail to remove same upon order of the manager within the time specified, shall forfeit all claim thereto, and the Fair management may take charge of and remove same, charging expense attached thereto to the owner or owners thereof, which expense or claim must be paid before ma-terial is released to the owner. 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. 8 1966 North Carolina State 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. 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. Adequate toilet facilities for men and women are maintained throughout the grounds. 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 aval-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 stall 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. Be sure packages mailed 1966 North Carolina State Fair 9 or shipped are properly addressed in accordance with instructions for shipment listed later in this section under "Exhibits and Exhibitors." INCOMING MAIL and parcels addressed to exhibitors, patrons, conces-sionaires and others connected with or attending the Fair should be called for at the Manager's office. No responsibility can be assumed for delivery. Messages telephoned, telegraphed or delivered to the Manager's office for persons exhibiting at, attending or connected in any way with the Fair, will be accepted for delivery only at the convenience of the Office Staff, and as time permits. No responsibility will be assumed for delay or non-delivery of such messages. OUTGOING MAIL may be dispatched and stamps may be purchased at the STATE FAIR sub-station operated by the Raleigh Post Office located at the entrance of the Red Cross LOUNGE BUILDING in the "WORLD'S LARGEST MAIL BOX". The mail service window is open daily during Fair Week from 11:00 A.M. until 5:00 P.M. Passes are issued only to exhibitors who must constantly attend their exhibits, or as a courtesy for some service rendered for which the State Fair is unable to pay. To these the Fair management is grateful and ask that the use of such passes be confined to the person to whom they are issued. Sufficient electric light and power service will be furnished by the Fair to properly illuminate and service the exhibition buildings and grounds. Exhibitors and concessionaries requiring individual electric light and power service in their booths and stands may obtain same upon written application and payment when service is installed and connected. ONLY THE OFFICIAL STATE FAIR ELECTRICIANS MAY MAKE INSTAL-LATIONS AND CONNECTIONS. Where outside wiring is necessary, a fixed charge of $5.00 will be made for each 50 feet or fraction thereof for making connection. If located inside of building where wiring exists, any additional labor or material must be paid for by the applicant. No service will be given for less than minimum charge of $5.00. The charge for electric current for power and lights will be as follows: 6tf per kilowatt hour. Motors will be rated on amperage per kilowatt hour. The current is alternating single phase, or 3-phase, 60 cycles, 120-220 volts. Electric stoves, grills, percolators, waffle irons, and all electrical equip-ment will be charged for at the regular rate. These must not be connected until Fair Electrician has granted permission. Trucks and other vehicles to service exhibits and concession stands will be permitted on the grounds ONLY between the hours of midnight and 10:00 a.m., and between 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. daily. Permits for entry of service trucks and vehicles must be obtained in advance of the opening of the Fair from the Manager's office. Additional information to that contained in this publication, and inter-pretation of any of the rules and regulations of the Fair may be obtained by writing or communicating with: MANAGER, N. C. STATE FAIR, P. O. BOX 5565, RALEIGH, N. C. (Telephone: 832-7549). 10 1966 North Carolina State Fair ENTRIES MAKE YOUR ENTRIES EARLY! The right is reserved to reject any entry, and entries received after all available space is taken must be rejected.

Certain poultry classes are open to exhibitors of Florida, Georgia, Mary-land, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia, and other states, if space allows, as well as North Carolina. In all other divisions and departments competition is LIMITED TO RESIDENTS OF NORTH CAROLINA. NO DEPARTMENT SUPERINTENDENT OR DIRECTOR, OR MEM-BERS OF THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILIES MAY ENTER EXHIBITS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE DEPARTMENTS. All entries (with exceptions noted in the Livestock Division for group classes) must be made in the name of the owner, breeder, manufacturer, grower, producer or on whose skill the exhibit represents. A firm, to be entitled to exhibit as such, must have been organized not less than 30 days prior to the closing date for entries, and such firm must have been organized as a bona fide firm for the purpose of producing, or buying and selling the articles or animals it proposes to exhibit in the name of such firm. A firm will be regarded as one exhibitor. Official printed forms MUST BE USED in making applications for entry. One will be found in the back of this book. One side of the form is for Live-stock entries ONLY; the other side is for entries in all other departments of the Fair. USE A SEPARATE FORM FOR ENTRIES IN EACH DE-PARTMENT. Be sure to fill out the application form completely, accurately and legibly. Give your rural route number, post office box number, or city street address. Additional application forms are available upon request to: MANAGER, N. C. STATE FAIR, P. O. BOX 5565, RALEIGH, N. C. Incomplete entry forms will be returned for correction if there is time to do so, but REMEMBER: No article or animals will be entitled to exhibit space until proper entry has been made, and no entry will be accepted after the closing date listed for the department. Once an entry is made, it cannot be changed except where it is improperly classed or a mistake has been made in copying the original entry—in which event the changes can be made only with the permission of the Department Superintendent or Dirctor in charge, AND THEN ONLY IN THE OF-FICE OF THE "ENTRY DIRECTOR." If the records are altered and 1966 North Carolina State Fair 11 do not conform with the information on file in the Entry Department, pay-ment of premiums will be withheld. No person except personnel of the Entry Department will be allowed to see the entries, or have access to the entry books, until after the awards are made. The same article or animal cannot be entered for more than one premium number (except as otherwise stated in the Special Department Rules and Regulations). Collections and displays must be made up of specimens other than those entered in single (individual) classes unless otherwise noted. No entry fees are required in any department, except that livestock, poultry, pigeon, and rabbit exhibitors must include payment of stall, pen and coop fees with their applications for entry. (SEE HEADNOTES OF THESE DEPARTMENTS FOR SCALE OF FEES.) 12 1966 North Carolina State Fair Application forms for entry should be mailed to: MANAGER, N. C. STATE FAIR, P. 0. Box 5565, Raleigh, N. C. After October 3, 1966, the Entry Department will be staffed to receive applications for entry in person. EXHIBITS AND EXHIBITORS Exhibits Must be in Place: Women's Departments (Culinary, Clothing and House Furnishings), Sunday, October 9, 1966, at 6:00 p.m. Cut Flowers (Horticulture Department), Monday, October 10, 1966, at 11:00 a.m. Arts and Crafts, Saturday, October 8, 1966, at 6:00 p.m. Livestock, Monday, October 10, 1966, at noon, except Market Cattle—Sunday, October 9, 1966, at 6:00 p.m. ALL OTHER DIVISIONS AND DEPARTMENTS, Sunday, October 9, 1966, at 6:00 p.m. Release of Exhibits: Livestock, Poultry, Pigeons and Rabbits, Saturday, October 15, at 4:00 p.m. All Other Divisions and Departments, Saturday, October 15, at 5:00 p.m. POSITIVELY NO EXHIBITS RELEASED BEFORE SPECIFIED DATE AND TIME. UNCLAIMED EXHIBITS FROM COMPETITIVE DEPARTMENTS, will be considered abandoned if not called for within one week after the official closing of the Fair, and may be disposed of as the Manager of the Fair sees fit. 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. O. BOX 5565, RALEIGH, N. C, and they will be carefully handled, officially entered, tagged, and otherwise treated in the 1966 North Carolina State Fair 13 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, accompained by a bill of lading, and properly identified inside and outside the package as to the department, class and premium number under which they have been previously entered. They should be shipped or mailed at least a week or 10 days prior to the opening of the Fair. The management will not be responsible for delayed shipments which arrive at the Fair too late to be considered in the judging. 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. illllllllllllMIIIIIIIIIMIMIIHIIIMIIIIIIItlH I Ml mill HIM I II 1 1 M Mill Ill M II IIMIIM III llllllili IIIM MUM M III II 1 1 II ..- [ IN RALEIGH IT'S ALWAYS | The SIR WALTER | Raleigh's Very Finest i • • • THE POLITICAL AND SOCIAL CENTER OF THE TAR HEEL STATE 100 PER CENT AIR CONDITIONED Free Parking in the Sirpork Building 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 MAN-AGER. 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. 1966 North Carolina State Fair 15 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 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 9, 1966. 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, and must be accompained 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 1966 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 payment 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, 1966, after which time the books of 1966 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, and above Light Blue 1966 North Carolina State Fair 17 Division I GENERAL EXHIBITS Department "A"-NORTH CAROLINA COMMUNITY PROGRAMS EXHIBITS Department "B"-4-H CLUB EXHIBITS Department "C'-VOCATIONAL EDUCATION EXHIBITS Department "D"-DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION SCHOOL EXHIBITS Department "F"—FIELD CROPS Class 1—Corn Class 2—Small Grains Class S—Forage Crops Class U—Legume Seeds Class 5—Tobacco Department "G"-HORTICULTURE Class 1—Fruits and Nuts Class 2 and S—Vegetables Class h—Plants and Flowers Department "H"-ARTS AND PHOTOGRAPH Department "l"-BEES AND HONEY GENERAL DIVISION DIRECTOR J.

State U. 42 1966 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 F137—Flue-cured individuals $ 50 $28 $17 $13 $10 $ 7 F138—Burley individuals 50 28 17 13 10 7 F139—Flue-cured team 150 85 50 40 30 20 F140—Burley team 150 85 50 40 30 20 HORTICULTURE DEPARTMENT "G" SUPERINTENDENT: HENRY M.

Additional copies are available upon request. Use separate forms for entries in EACH CLASS—"1" Fruits and Nuts, "2 and 3" Vegetables, and "4" Plants and Flowers—of this de-partment, and separate forms for entries in each other department of the Fair.

Give your rural route number, post office box number, or city street address. „ List the Department Letter ("G" for Horticulture) and the Class Number ("1" for Fruits or Nuts, "2 and 3" for Vegetables, and "4" for Plants or Flowers) for which each entry is made. Also, list the premium number and the description of the article, exactly as shown in the Premium List. If entries are received sufficiently in advance of the Fair to permit mail-ing, Entry Tags will be forwarded to exhibitors at their home address. Otherwise, these Entry Tags should be picked up at the Entry Department immediately upon arrival on the Fairgrounds. An Entry Tag must be at-tached to each exhibit before it is presented in the Department for display. As far as possible, it is urged that all Horticultural Products be brought in and set up by the exhibitor. Where it is not possible, shipments should be made in time to reach the Fairgrounds no later than Saturday, October 8, and should be addressed to: Superintendent, Horticulture Department, N. C. State Fair, P. O. Box 5565, Raleigh, N. C. Where it is not possible to personally bring the products to the Fair and arrange them, the Superintendents will be glad to arrange the products in the most attractive manner possible. However, they will not pack box or basket entries for exhibit. Exhibits mailed or shipped to the Fair should be carefully labeled to show the name and address of the exhibitor, and the nature, and class in which entered, of the contents of the package. The State Fair will furnish PLATES, ONE QUART CONTAINERS, CORRUGATED CARTONS FOR SWEET POTATOES, AND TRAYS for exhibits, but no other containers. The number of specimens for each PLATE display is specified in the premium list. Standard size tray, HVz x 18 inches inside measurements, and 3 inches deep, will be used. Exhibitors should make a tray of the required dimensions and pack the exhibit to determine the number of specimens required. At least one extra specimen for each plate, and three or four extra specimens for each tray, should be brought or shipped to the Fair to allow for possible damage in transit. To insure uniformity in exhibit material and to facilitate judging, the following sizes for apple varieties will be recognized: Variety Diameter Arkansas 3 to 3% inches Bonum 2% to 3 inches Delicious and named bud sports 2% to 3^4 inches Grimes 2% to 3% inches Jonathan 2% to 3 inches Golden Delicious 2%, to 3% inches Rome and named bud sports 3 to ZVt. inches Stayman and named bud sports 3 to 3% inches Winesap 2% to 3 inches York and named bud sports 3% to 3% inches 46 1966 North Carolina State Fair Fruits and vegetables to be exhibited in plates and trays should be care-fully wrapped and packed for shipment to the Fair. Wrap separately in paper and pack firmly in a box, taking care to avoid bruising. Label each variety plainly and put in dividers to keep varieties separated. Do not use hay, fodder, excelsior or any other dusty packing material. Quality — Not Quantity In selecting Horticultural products for exhibit, choose only those speci-mens that are of uniformly good quality, form and color, true to type, and free from all insect and disease blemishes, and free from cuts and bruises. Premiums offered for the best collection of fruits or vegetables will not be awarded for a mere pile or for the greatest number of varieties, BUT MAINLY ON THE BASIS OF QUALITY. Do not knock or shake fruit from the tree, but pick each specimen by hand, taking care not to pull out the stem. Products should be exhibited as nearly as possible in their natural state, and no preference will be given in the judging for highly polished fruits or vegetables. Entries of Commercial containers of apples and sweet potatoes should be graded to uniform marketable size, high color, smoothness, trueness to type, freedom from cuts and bruises, and free from insect and fungus blemishes. They should be properly packed and faced in standard containers. Entries of "Collections" and under "Any Other Variety" must be cor-rectly named by the exhibitor. In the nomenclature of fruits, the names adopted by the American Pomological Society shall rule, and no variety will be accepted that has not been admitted to their catalogue, except in the case of seedlings never before exhibited. Awards and Judging No awards will be made for unworthy specimens, where quality is lacking, or where any of the Rules and Regulations governing these exhibits are disregarded. No article entered for competition in any class will be permitted to compete for a premium in any other class. AN EXHIBITOR CANNOT COMPETE FOR MORE THAN ONE PRIZE IN ANY CLASS. No exhibitor will be allowed to discuss exhibits with the judges, or to interfere in any way while the judges are at work. 1966 North Carolina State Fair 47 Class 1—Fruits and Nuts APPLES G 1—COMMERCIAL DISPLAY 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th 9th 10th $150. 100. 75. 50. 40. 30. 25. 20. 10. 5.

RULES AND REGULATIONS Except in cases of conflict, in which event the following Rules and Regu-lations will prevail, the General Rules and Regulations of the Fair will govern this Division. BE SURE TO READ THOSE TN THE FRONT OF THIS BOOK. Some—but not all—are repeated herewith for emphasis, and others of the following Rules and Regulations apply only to this Division. Entries MAKE YOUR ENTRIES EARLY! The right is reserved and will be used to reject entries received after all available space is taken. Even though this occurs before specified time for closing of entries. Official printed forms must be used in making applications for entry. One will be found in the back of this book. Additional copies are available upon request. Use a separate form for making entries in each department. Be sure to fill in the application form completely, accurately and legibly. Give 1966 North Carolina State Fair 73 your rural route number, post office box number, or city street address. Indicate on the form the total number of animals you will exhibit, includ-ing nurse animals, and the total number of stall spaces (four feet wide) or pens (6x8 feet in size) you will require, including those to be used for gear, feed and bedding. List the class number, as indicated in the premium list, for which each entry is made. Use a separate line for each animal. Do not make entries in the Championship classes. Indicate if you plan to make entries in the group and/or herd classes, but it is not necessary to name the animals which will make up your group or herd entries until after the judging of the individual classes. Entries in the group and herd classes must have previously been exhibited in the individual classes. List, also, on the application form the name (or ear tag number) and registry number of each animal entered, its date of birth, its sex, the names (or ear tag numbers) and registry numbers of its sire and dam, and the name of the breeder.

Also, all dairy cattle exhibitors must show official evidence of ownership of animal prior to showing. (See exceptions to this rule for group classes only in some departments). Fees Stall or pen fees are required for all entries in the senior and open classes of the Livestock Division. Entries exclusively in the junior livestock shows are not subject to stall or pen fees, and the first three placed animals in each Junior Show class are eligible to compete in the Senior and Open Shows without payment of any fee.

Reservations will not be made unless accompanied by the required fee, and REMEMBER: THE RIGHT IS RESERVED TO REJECT ENTRIES RECEIVED AFTER ALL AVAILABLE SPACE IS TAKEN. ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED IN THE ORDER RECEIVED. Be sure to indicate on the form the total number of stall spaces or pens you will require, including those to be used for nurse animals, and for gear, feed and bedding. Include remittances for these extra stall spaces or pens you will require, as well as for those actually required for the animals you will exhibit in the competitive classes. Animals duly entered in the show which will be exhibited competitively in the show ring will have priority on stall and pen space; thereafter, should additional space be available, display animals will be assigned stall or pen space.

A copy of the approved health certificate shall be forwarded to the State Veterinarian, N. C. Department of Agri-culture, Raleigh, N. C, before the arrival of the animals. The health certifi-cate shall state that no animal in the shipment is infected with or has been recently exposed to any infectious or transmissable disease, and shall con-tain the names and addresses of the consignor and consignee, with an accu-rate description or identification of each individual animal. "In addition to the above regulation, the health status of the individuals shipped and the entire herd of origin, shall be as follows: BRUCELLOSIS OR BANG'S DISEASE— (1) Herds officially certified brucellosis-free or qualified negative herds in modified certified brucellosis areas in which all the animals in the herd over six (6) months of age, except official calfhood vaccinates under thirty (30) months of age, were negative to an official test for brucellosis within twelve (12) months of entry or two (2) official negative brucellosis ring tests within twelve months, and the animals for entry except official calfhood vaccinates twenty-four (24) months of age or under were negative to an official blood test within thirty (30) days of date of entry; provide, official calf-hood vaccinates under twenty-four (24) months of age classed as heavy springers or those that have calved shall be blood tested and negative to brucellosis prior to entry.

(This paragraph applies to herds other than brucellosis certified herds that are not located in a modified certified brucellosis area.) (3) Identified officially calfhood vaccinated cattle showing a blood-serum agglutination titer of 1-50 or less are classified as negative under the State-Federal regulation governing the interpretation of the brucellosis test.

The recommended dosage of a licensed killed virus hog cholera vaccine is not less than 21 days or more than 6 months. This is the only type of vaccine recommended for use in bred sows and gilts. Breeding swine 5 months of age or over are required to be blood tested and negative to bru-cellosis within 30 days of admission to Fair, provided swine originating from validated brucellosis-free herds need not be tested for brucellosis. Sheep "All sheep entered must be in apparently healthy condition. The owner must certify that they are from premises where no known contagious or infectious disease of sheep exists. The right is reserved to reject an entry or to remove same after entered should the State Veterinarian find the animal affected with a communicable or parasitic disease." Exhibits and Exhibitors The Fair management will use diligence to insure the safety of livestock entered for exhibition or display, but under no circumstances will it be re-sponsible for loss, injury, theft or damage by fire, lightning, wind, or any other agency, to such livestock on exhibition or display. All livestock on exhibition must be cared for by the exhibitor (except entires in Junior Dairy Cattle show.) All stalls and pens will be well bedded by the Fair, free of charge. Thereafter, exhibitors will be required to furnish their own bedding. Feed, forage and straw will be on sale at the Fairgrounds at reasonable prices. The Fair reserves the right to discriminate against both excessive obes-ity, which cannot be a profitable condition for breeding animals, and ex-cessive leanness, in which condition animals are unfit for exhibition. 76 1966 North Carolina State Fair No barren animals will be eligible in breeding classes. An affidavit that an animal is a breeder must be furnished on request. All cattle must be halter-broken. No dairy bull over one year of age will be allowed on the grounds without a ring in his nose and must not be led from his stall except by a staff, rope or chain attached to or leading through the ring. Boars over one year of age must have had their tusks removed. Exhibitors must keep their animals uncovered between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. each day of the Fair. Premium money will be withheld from exhibitors violating this rule, except in case of sickness of animals or inclement weather, and then only on authorization of the Superintendent. A great educational feature of the Fair is the exhibitions and parades of approved livestock by breeds and ages. Exhibitors refusing for any cause not meeting with the approval of the management to lead out animals for parade will not only forfeit all premiums won, but will be barred from further participation in the Fair, and will be required to remove their stock from the Fairgrounds within six hours after such refusal, and will forfeit all fees paid. Misrepresentation as to breeding and irregularity in showing will be exposed and any premium won by such exhibitor will be withheld. Certifi-cates of registration must be shown on demand of the Livestock Superin-tendent. Any artificial means of removing or remedying physical defects or con-formation in exhibition animals, such as lifting or filling under the skin, will be considered fraud and deception. All anim |
