purposes. The inability of any agricultural society entitled to receive
moneys from the state under section two hundred eighty-six of this
chapter, to hold its annual fair or exposition on lands leased to it for
that purpose which is occasioned by the use of such lands, for military

by the parties to, or within the meaning of the terms of any contract,
agreement or lease therefor, executed prior thereto, which provides for
the termination of such contract, agreement or lease upon the failure of
such agricultural society to hold its annual fair or exposition and no
