It is an agricultural and in dustrial institute for residentsof botl i town and country. It is a shori course in better fanning and bettei living. It is a physical demonstra^ tion of why the man who farm* with his head instead of his hand; must inevitably succeed. It is a comprehensive exhibitior of what the ambitious boy or gir may achieve in agriculture, liv< stock raising, dairying, horticul ture, home gardening, domestu science or household economy. Ii is an exposition of the marvelous improvement in farm machinery and agricultural implements. It is usually an object lesson in the greal part improved machinery plays ir development and cultivation of the farm and the increased prosperity of the farmer. The chief educational value of oui fair lies in the fact that it is demonstrative in character. The eye is $ more convincing instructor than the ear. We are slow to accept and believe in any new methods until wc have had optical proof of its siperi' \ ority over the old. Often it is difficult to secure the attention of the busy man or woman long enough to give such a demonstration. Not infrequently it happens that farmers who would be most benefitted bv better methods % * ? t : nianilr infor. Ul uuiiiiu^ aic uvi ouuiviviivij (uwu ested to be present at any special meeting called for the purpose oi discussing the subject. But the fair appeals to that trait of mankind which demands entertainment and amusement and becomes a common forum for the discussion of all matters having to dc with agriculture, industry, the honit and the school. In this clearing house of education the farmer learns what the manufacturer, the merchant and the banker are and have been doing to make his labor less arduous and his farm more profitable and the town resident learns what rapid progress is being made in agriculture. A bond of common interest is created which means much tc both town and country. The farmer learns by actual observation of the newest devices and im-4. 2 ?li 1 ? 1 _ provemenis in agricultural implements. He learns their use and benefits. He learns in what way they assist in soil cultivation, in plant growth, in sowing, in harvesting, in threshing. He learns the economic value of the more modern machinery, of the silo, of motor power on the farm. The urban dweller is furnished a vivid picture of the agricultural resources of the community. He learns about the fertility of the soil in the vicinity; of what is being done to increase the farm yield; to improve the quality of the stock, and to multiply the total dairy product. Every man and woman, whether town or country resident, is brought into closer touch with the home life of others. All imbibe that broader education which means co-operation?th.d ideal education which is service t<> self and all humanity. The sneech Blease made to the students of the negro college in Columbia indicates that he is making a strong hid for the negro vote in the general election. There are many negro voters in this State and if these voters combine with a certain number of Ixtlters the Democratic nominees may t>e defeated, and a ticket elected by means of the negro vote.

All A6ED WOMAN Tells How Vinol Made Her Strong In lier eighty-second year Mrs. John Wickersham, of Russellville, Pa., says: *1 was in a run-down, feeble condition and had lost flesh. A neighbor asked me to try Vinol, and alter taking two bottles my strength returned; I am gaining in flesh, it has built ur> my health and I am feeling fine for a woman of my age, so I get around and do my housework." The reason Vinol was so successful in Mrs. Wickersham's case was because it contains the very elements needed to build her up. Scutt Drug Co, Kingstree, fc* C. I e TK X 11 Fu e r is mvi Jl ?! T1 ).
