Carthage Fair Pays High Corn Prices and Exciting Lineup
Carthage Missouri readers are invited to the four day Carthage Fair opening August 26 with corn bought at 164 per bushel if you have the best in show. Premiums are higher this year across departments, featuring harness and running races, auto and motorcycle events, free elephant and monkey act, daylight fireworks, Dunham’s Baby Deers, ample parking, shade and good water. The fair supports better farming and stock raising, and plans strong attractions for visitors.
