The Local Fairs.
The Local fairs are held in Tulla on the fair-green and the Main Street every month. Local buyers generally buy cattle from the farmers,that is if the cattle prices are gone up and they dispose of them at the local fair in the town as the farmers would not know of the increase of price.
This is still carried on.
The fairs are not discontinued but they are increased in Tulla because the number of cattle were increasing and the fairs were crowded as there used be only a few fairs but now there is one every month.The only place where fairs are held at cross roads is at Spancil(continues on next page)
