C. 3E ANDERSON, Oct. 9.—Though the Anderson Fair is primarily an ag ricultural exhibition, in itself one of the largest in - the southwest, patrons of the 1934 edition will not lack for entertainment of a friv olous and thrill-begetting nature. The fair opens Tuesday morning, October 30, and continues five days. It is the official district fair of ten counties: Elbert,. Franklin, Hart, Madison and Stephens counties in Georgia, and Anderson, Abbeville, Greenville, Oconee and Pickens counties hi South Carolina. The average annual attendance is al ways , over 100,000. Fourteen rides and more than that number of shows will be found along the midway, brought to An derson by the .Rubin and Cherry Exposition. • The old reliable merry-go-round, for many years the most popular of all rides, is a beautiful creation of the designer’s skill—magnifi cently carved metallic horses, and an organ that cost $10,000 to con struct in Europe. Twin Eli Ferris wheels, duplex in design, towering sixty feet in mid-air and illumin ated by myriad lights—a magnifi cent kaledescopic spectacle fair- goers will not soon forget. Other of the latest creations are the Lindy loop, the giant whip and ! the ever popular Ridee-O; the dangler; the caterpillar, cyclone, the Dodgem and a set of miniature rides for the little folks such as the “auto-ride,” “Baby whip,” and numerous other novelties to move children to ecstatic delight. “The waltzer”, one of the only three of this type ever built, is a wonderfully thrilling and exhilart- ing ride costing $25,000, which literally catapaults its riders through space at the rate of a mile a minute.

CLEMSON COLLEGE, Oct. 6 — “South Carolina and other South ern farmers have seen the benefits which come from co-operation among themselves and with their Government and they surely wijl not wish to return to the low prices and low standard of living which prevailed prior to the beginning of the present cotton production ad justment program”, says Dr. W. W. Long, director of the Extension Service, who believes that witheut an adjustment program for cotton in 1935, growers might easily bring about a condition similar to that which they faced in the early part of 1933 or in 1932 when the price ’:/as around five cents a pound. In this connection Dr. Long quotes Cully A. Cobb, head of the cotton section AAA, who fears that the return to 1932 and 1933 con ditions might occur if the safe guards of the present contracts were withdrawn by the Agricultur al Adjustment Administration. “For instance”, says Mr. Cobb, “one grower would think that he could safely increase his acreage by 10 acres and would use a little more and a little better fertilizer. The present price, he would think, Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Bussey were would justify such action.
