B.E. Paper dated September 9, 1886

Fair-y Tales
Fair
Fair Week
Come to the Fair
Our floral hall is a daisy
Don't you forget the Fair
Bring something for exhibition
It is Thursday, Friday and Saturday
We will have a fair if the weather isn't foul
We expect a big display of cattle at our fairgrounds this week
Look out for fast trotting at our Fair Friday and Saturday
Six hundred dollars has been expended on the track this year
Don't neglect to come to the fair to see our new $700.00 floral hall
Just keep your eye on the display of wheat; it will beat the world
Don't forget to remember that we now have the best half mile track in the country
I you don't take THE POST step into the office while in town attending the fair, and get a sample copy
While attending the fair you are cordially invited to call at THE POST printing office next door to the Constans House
It is the only fair that you devote two days to the fair. Bring your fair partner and like a man, pay her fare into the fair grounds, and if you are not treated in a fair manner, it will be a strange af-fair
We shall not pattern after the State fair and have different days for different towns. But Thursday, Friday and Saturday will be Faribault County days irrespective of villages, township or section lines, and immaterial as to race, color or previous condition of servitude.
