Should a board decide not to hold a county fair, the county court may in its discretion expend such funds, or any portion thereof, for paying premiums upon exhibits of livestock, agricultural and horticultural products at any fair, land products show or livestock exposition held in this state. Any or all of such funds not so used shall be held by the county treasurer in a reserve fund to be available for use by the county fair board in subsequent years.
