WEEKLY BANNER-WATCHMAN TUESDAY NOVEMBER 16, 1886.

On casting tho ballot Mrs. .ocas’ quilt was awarded the first bile honorable mention was made a success and she is certainly entitled to a rote of thinks by the managers. , Mrs. Charles Stern nobly merited the prizes she won. In fact, every article Mrs. Stern exh-btad was beautiful, and her comer in the art h*R was one of [uuts exhi utted by Miss Budie the most attractive pictures of the fair. o.ii!- ei.j. a . jj r y pjjjn^y cnrea hams in the old anti bellum manner.

Mies Sallie Harris entered for the best ■hirt made by hand, and hers is a beau tiful piece of plain needlework. Miss Harris is accomplished in fancy work, but this excellent piece of work com bines beauty with usefulness and dura- bility. Mrs ltutherford has a neat and attrac tive shirt tucked with very fine tucks and beautifully-worked button-holes. Mrs W W Thomas has a landscape Tainted in oils, which she has reason to he proud of. It has been said that the fault of the •education of the women of the present elay is too much for ornament, and not. ■substantial enough. When we see thp dmestic handiwork of our ladies— breads, pickles, preserves, farm pro ducts, jellies, quilts, shirts and plain a wing displayed in such an attrartiye manner, we arc convinced that the ladies of Athens are not only ornamental bub useful Mr. Charle'sJStern’s exhibit included figures which might come under thej head of art Cleveland is lifs-siie and very excellent likeness.

The stock should toe worth over par, aa the grounds ould sell for twice as much as wss paid >r the land. THE SECRETARIES. Two much praise cannot be accorded Messrs. Griffith A Morris, secretaries, for their splendid efforts. To these gentle men. in a great measure, is due the sue* cess of the exb ibition. President Thomas is also untiring in bis exertions, and like everything he touches, this gentleman has made a grand success of our fair. A SCRUB RACE. At 4:30 o'clock a scrub race was run between J. C. Jackson’s claybank and H. Crawford's black for a purse of $50. Both animals tilted the track, but the claybank passed first under the rope. The claybank lead from the start. FREE FOR ALL TROTTING RACE. This was considered the big trot of the week, and s great deal of interest was manifested by the large crowd present. Miss Cawley was entered by Anderson & McIntosh. Frank was entered by Wm Nichols. Little Frank was entered by A B Cook. Tumbler was entered by Joe Bland. Miss Cawley took the poles, Frank second, Little Frank third and Tumbler on the outside, The scoring was done while the rain was falling, and the drivers seemed to want to get off as soon as possible. Miss Cawley took the lead and held it around the curve, and on the back stretch trot ted like a piece of machinery in motion, and came under the wire in 2:51, Frank second, Tnmbler third, and Little Frank saving his distance. SECOND HEAT. The track was beginning to get very heavy from the rain, and it wss not pos sible for the horses to make very fast time, although they all united to do their best They were sent off at the first, came up, and again Miss Cawley received the plaudits of the crowd, as she drew steadily ahead and took the second heat in 2:54, with Tumbler a good second. Frank third and Little Frank fourth. After this heat there was complaint made to the judges that Frank was not being driven to win, and the owner of the horse was sent for and the complaint made known. Mr Nichols, the owner of Frank, stated that his horse could not trot in the mud, and if he was driven faster it would put him the owner of a dead horse, instead of a live one. THIRD HEAT. A very good start was given, bat it was a very poor trot, Miss Cawley winning the heat and race in 2:55, Tumbler sec ond, Frank third, Little Frank fourth. This ended the great free-for-all, and very little money changed hands. RUNNING RACK, HALF MILE DASH. Red Jim, Bill and Charley appeared on the tTack, and after making them toe the mark the word “go” was given, and everything went, with the whip and spur being used to the utmost capacity. Red Jim came in first, with Charley second and Bill third. A fair is ahr-ya ^success in a prohi bition town. A gentleman from Franklin county went to the restaurant while at the fair and called for old time country 'possum. Washington, Wilkes county, was rep resented by K D Calaway, P T Calaway, E T Hill, J F Jackson, G W Cade, Capt Anthony and Tuck Irvin. This delega tion had a delightful time, and made many friends in our city'. Mr Suddeth, of Jackson county, is ad vertising his fine stallion for sale. The craxy quilts attract a great deal of attention. Mr Dortch, of the Cirnesville Regis ter. was on the grounds yesterday. MrT C Hampton made his candy and cigar privileges quite profitable. He will clear about $200 by the venture. Judge Herrington sold a young Ply- month Rock roosterdoy for $5. There was a bundle of broomsedge on exhibition at the fur. The fair will make enough clear mon ey to pay for half the land. Tomorrow we will publish the fall pre mium list' -.. _■ There were not half enough stalls to accommodate the stock entered. Dorsey lost $60 yesterday by his street car wheels being out of fix. There was very little bettting at the ■air grounds. SATURDAY. THE FIFTH AND LAST DAY OF THE EXHIBITION.

Thy grow ing value of cotton seed as a fe iif and as a fertilizer is recognized. Th® question is how to enable farmers to realize from this material the greatest (benefit. Shall it b-. thrown into compout in its original lumpy state, and a large part of its avail able fertilizing poyi er allowed to escape? Shall it be fed with its hull and other un- digestable matter to stock—or shall it be ground and reduced to an available and a digestible 'mass? The requisites of a machine—to furnish a superior article by best methods at the lowest cost, seem to harife been realized in Mr. Heard’* in vention. Its adjustment in all parts hsa been provided for. For feeding, the cot ton seed kernel may be mixed with oats, peas, &c. For fertilizing, the spout lead ing to the separator can be removed, leaving the meal and bulla together. A* • cotton seed huller for plantation pur poses it has no superior, if an equal. For grinding the seed for fertilizing purposes it it without a rival, and is fitted with a superior automatic feed for cotton seed and giain.

PAIR NOTES. The street railroad this week has clear- Yesterday was delightful weather, and an excellent crowd was at the grounds. This closed one of the most successful fairs ever held in the state. All nature seemed to conspire to render the exhibi tion a success. The weather was all we could ask. The track wm in superb order. MR. E. W. BURKE’S DISPLAY. One of the finest displays at the fair was made by Mr E W Burke in the Art Hall, and his exhibit was surrounded at all times by an admiring throng. He had samples of the magnificent pianos and organs that he is selling, as also books, stationery and printing. His Space was beautifully arranged, and was one of the most attractive features of the fair. LITTLE GIANT. This celebrated stallion, owned by Mr R E Branch, of ^conee, was entered in the paring race to. fill out the fair, and after the heats were split he was with drawn. He is one of the best bred stal lions in Northeast Georgia, and has good record as spacer. Mr Chuck An derson, of Marietta, and Mr J A Bland, of Nashville, say that they have made special inquiries about Little Giant in Kentucky, and find that he is one of the best bred stallions in Georgia, and that if they lived in this section would breed from him. Little Giant has made recoid both as a sire und on the turf equal to any of the Hamblctonian breed, lie is the sire of two three-year-olds that have trotted a mile in 2:55. All of his colts are promising, and arc natural trot ters or pacers. Any one wanting to raise from this fine stallion should ad dress R E Branch, Watkinsville, Ga. RACING.

The next near- estgness was Edge Hunter’s, which was 5,600. Jflva AND TATLOR. This live, young drug firm made a most creditable display at the fair, and they are energetic and reliable young men and put in a good exhibit which wax greatly admired.

Circus Bill entered and ridden by Crawford, is large grey horse, with his true dipped English style. Circus Bill has been in regular attendance at the swapping grounds from Habersham to Elbert.

Maggie; entered by Bob Crawford, bad just come out of the plow and looked little thin for want of corn. They were all brought up to the line and then the fun commenced. The whip and spur was used from the jump, and before the finish each horee was badly blown and it was a bard matter to get them to run. Daisy Hill showed her blood and came in the winner of the first heat. After they were given a short time to rest they all came up again and away they went to the amusement of the crowd. Circ.ns Bill could not hold bis own, although his rider used a pole on him to make him go. Maggie was rid den for all she was worth, but all the beating and banging did no good and our Daisy Hill got out first NOVELTY RUNNING RACE. This was decidedly the fastest race and the horses were put out fora II there was in them. Blood will tell in horses and thought that Arteband was the best bred horse in the race and wonld win. Red Jim, Artebaud and Planter were the entries and a good start was given and around the course they went for the first quarter. Red Jim and Artebaud joing neck and neck, with Planter trail ng in the rear. Red Jim forged a little ahead at the quarter polls, but Arteband again took the lead and kept it,MSsingthe half mile and three-quarter mile ahead, and Planter came up in fine style, but it was too late for him to win. Artebaud came in first. The quarter was run in 26, half mile in 53, three-quarters in 1:22 and the mile in 1:53. Sam Jones was named by Mr. Bland, in honor of the great revivalist and is one oi the fastest pacers in the South. He has a record of 2:16. Tbe race was got ten up by the association for benefit of tbe spectators for a special purse. Arte band one of the finest blooded four-year olds in the country was bookod to go against Samuel and the visitors were on tip-toe lo see the pace. Joe Bland pressed up the preacher and they came up to go in fine style. A B Cook rode Arteband. The reporter was growing much disgusted with the heat and had given it as bis opinion that the Preacher made very poor time. Another heat was given on account of Mr. Bland not being able to hold hia horse downt o his work, on account of tbe bit he had on. The second beat was paced in 2:26% and closed the racing for the week* SILK QUIT.S3.—mss RXEDIE HARTER, or ELBERT, CARRIES OFF THE BANNER-WATCH MAN SPECIAL PREMIUM. No department of our fair created sa much interest as the friendly little tilt be tween a number of ladies as to who would be awarded tbe cash prise of $5, given by Mr Jnles Cohen, for tbs best “crazy quilt’' exhibited. Tbe display of quilts was beautifu', and the workhighly credi table to the skilled bands of tbe Cur owner*. Some of them seemed like a miniature flower garden, while others resembled a small picture gallery. It could scarcely be| believed that such lovely and true representations were the work of-e noodle and thread. Each silk quilt was display ed to its beat advantage, and eo arranged in the show cases as to bring out tbe prettiest and most difficult figures. Mr. Cohen’* premium was awarded to MrsF.W, Lucas’ quilt, which was certainly beantifuL But as tbe la dies had taken so much pains with their work, it seemed fair that more than one prise should be awarded, and to this end the Banneb-Whtcbman offered a second sped prize of a beautiful placque clock to be awarded also for silk quilts. It was difficult to deride tbe question, but after a fair and impartial examination of the quilts on exhibition, tbe premium was green to Miss Reedie Harper, of El bert county. THE guessing jar.
