    people go to the fair they bring sweets and apples to the young children. It is very nice to go to the fair. The children used have great fun at the fair. It is the old people that sell the cattle, sheep and pigs. They used be making bargains for a long time at the fair before they would sell the stock. The buyers sometimes come a long way to buy cattle at the fair.
