Our County Fair.
The fair is an educational clearing
house. 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

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.

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. It is therefore the duty

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.
