the sale closes Saturday and Williamsburg
county is yet short of the

money as well as fellow men.

Cet Ready for the Big Fair.
Get your exhibits ready for the
big county fair which opens Tuesday,
November 1U, for four days.
It is to the interest of every farm*
er in the county to put on exhibition
a sample of everything he can pro
duce on his farm, thereby letting
your neighbor and the outside
world know what you can do here
in your home county.
Attend to this important matter
at once and be ready to enter your
exhibits, of whatever nature, not
later than Monday, November 12.
Mr A V Snell was the enthusiastic
speaker here last Friday in the interest
of the food conservation
movement. His address was ably
delivered and highly interesting,
and the fact that so few of our citizens
were present to hear him is
indeed lamentable. However, there
were present enough enterprising
mpn to take un the work outlined
both in the food movement and the J
sale of liberty bonds, and ever since
the meeting a few of our enterprising
citizens, men and women, have been
pushing the work vigorously and in
conformity with the plans of the
national government. A "meatless
and wheatless day" each week
should be the slogan of every family
until the war is ended and Prusianism
is a thing of the past in the
governmental system of the world.
Some time ago the A J Kirstin Co
of Escanaba, Mich, advertised a
stump puller in The Record. At
| the time we wrote them to the effect
that there were plenty of stumps in
this county that needed pulling and
that if they would send a man here
wun one 01 ine:i mat-nines, vwiu
could demonstrate i: to farmers and
land owners of tr.e county that, in
our belief, the advertising would be
effective of good results, provided
the machine would do what was
claimed for it. We have a letter
today from the Kirstin Co. also an
advertisement which appears in this |
paper, telling us that they are send- j
ing a man into this territory to dem-!
onstrate their stump pulling ma-i
chine and requesting our co-oper-i
ation in the matter. We are only i
too glad to be of any service we can!
along this lint*, for on every hand
we are confronted with fertile fields
t.'iat could l?e greatly improved by
weeding out the numerous stumps
tr.at obstruct proper and more
profitable cultivation. Mr Williams,
who is to demonstrate the machine,
will be here on some date to be announced
later and the Kirstin Co is
desirous of securing for him a stump
infested field for his demonstration.
The editor of The Record will be
glad to hear from any farmer in the
county who can provide a good field
for the coming: demonstration.
