Pickens Sentinel-Journal PUBTSD EVERI THURSDAY XORNING. -BY The Sentinel-Journal Company. J. L. 0. THOMPSON, EDITOR. Telephone 32 dubscription $1.00 Per Annum. Advertising Rates-Reasonable. Sntered at Picxens Fgstofice as Second Class Mail Matter PICKENS, S. C.: THURSDAY AUGUST 26.1909, Premium List of Fair There was a very enthusiastic meeting of the committees and chairmen of the Fair Association held Tuesday in the court house, and good reports were made. Ways and means and whys and wherefores were threshed out and every phase was boiled down to its last analysis and from now on to the end of the fair every chairman and every committeeman knows exactly where he is at and what he has got to do and when he is expect ed to do it. The finance committee not being up with their work, it was deemed best to hold the prem ium list out for a few days lon ger, especially as some pers-ns who have not contributed, have asked for a few days time in which to get together their do nations. so this list will close the morning of the 31st instant. So far, the premiums offered, are exceedingly handsome, nu merous, and costly. They con sist of money, wagons, agricul tural implements, ranges, and stoves , guano, etc.. etc. Over 10 tons of guano will be given away, The best prize, $50.00 in gold, will be given to the farmer for the best agricultural displav This includes ev I ng raised on the f in and must be brou in and arranged by the oN ;ner. The display should em brace everything raised on the farm,-hay, grain, fruits, vege tables, molasses, oats, rye, wheat, corn, peas, beans, squash,beets,turnips, pumpkins, sunflower, clover, hay, sugar cane,-in fact anything raised on the farm should be included in the display; there are three points governing this display, two of which points are variety and arrangement, the judges supplying the third point with "the best of its kind," and the display having the greatest va ri ety and the best of its kind gets the $50.00 in gold. In this individual agricultural exhibit contest, the second prize will be a fine nickle plated, 6 hole, asbestos lined range, known as the Pickens Hard ware Co's. special. This range has high warming closet and copper hot water tank and is richly worth $32.00. In fact, many of our people have paid $65.00 for an inferior range. Another prize to be given is a No. 8 'Sunny South' Cook Stove. This is as good a stove as there is on the market and it retails for $15.00. It also is given by the Pickens Hardware Co. -Another prize is that given by the H. -B. -M. Co. It is a Hyde Diverse Cultivator, avery handy tool, and well worth $6.00. We understand from the com mittee having this list in charge that there is a probability of sev eral more prizes being offered for this exhibit. We urge, nay, beg, our read ers to compete for this prize. As it stands now there will be $125.00 in premiums given away for this exhibit alone. This is worth striving for and we hope every farmer in the county will be a competitor. Remember, it does not bar you from entering for any of the oth er prizes offered for the best ag ricultural products. Another special prize given away is a Nissen 2-horse wagon given by the H. -B. -M. Co. There is a string to this prize, in that all contestants must be owners of a Nissen wagon. The wagon will be given to tb person hauling the great' number of people to town on first day. The rules are kind of stock, mules, ho' oxen can be used, but n power, such a tractior etc., will be permitte. The people must be hauled in on a Nissen wagon, and no person must be taken on within the in corporate limits of the town. The loads must all be drawn to the H.-B.-M. Co's store and there counted. As many ami nials can be used in drawinfl- t.4 load as the contestants care to use. The H.-B.-M. Co. states that anyone wishing to compete in this contest, but not owning a Nissen wagol can )>,Y one of them, and if successful in win: ing the prize the purchase price will be refunded to then, if they prefer it to another wagon. The prenium list of the stock co minittee is about complete !It we do not plblish it this week, deemllilg it best to give the en tire list next issue. The people of Pickens hav, responded nobly to the app-ils of the fair association for help to pull off the fair. and it will be: free to all. However, should anyone in the county feel like contributing to the financial end of the fair, it will be thank fully received. The comnitee is shy about $200 yet on the Iee essary amount needed: the band will cost $165; the woman's de partment will be given $50.00 to offer up as prizes; the other prizes amount to a good deal and the other necessary expenses have to be met. The men who think it doesn't cost anything to run a fair should apply for the job. Home Coming Week How many people, who were borned, raised, and originally lived in Pickens County, or, we might go farther back, and make it in old Pickens District. They all have descendants, who are scattered to the four winds of the earth, yet they have not, lost all interest in the okd-,i-nty, and a. hear of ier growth and prosperity. Why not, then, make a "Home Com ing Week," and invite them all to pay a visit here during the fair? Let each and every citi zen living in the county who have relatives in other counties in this, or other states, write them to "come home" on that date. Let us have a gathering of all the people we can that claim Pickens county as their birth-place. It will not cost much, you in tend writing your relatives any way, so just say to them, "meet me at the Pickens County Fair; it is Home Coming Week." Everybody pull for the fair and for home-coming week. Sept 19 25. __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Or.King's New Life Pills The best In the world. Notice of Final Settlement and Dis charge.
