■Ity. Liberality and Courtesy Accorded Its Patrons
% DIRECTORS:
The success that various email cdun
ty fairs have met in different parts
of the state has served to revive an
Interest In such agricultural and live
stock displays for Sumter county, and
It la quite likely thlat next year wtl
see thta, the leading county of South
west Georgia, with a county fair that
will throw all of the others into the
shade.-
-Stewart, Crisp and other counties of
this Immediate section are having
county fairs this year, tand a consid
erable measure of success Is looked
for. It Is realised that these county
fairs can be made Instrumental in
considerably advancing the general
agricultural Interests of the counties
In which they are held. This has
been the case everywhere and It
would undoubtedly be the case here. In
addition these fairs have the effect
of greatly stimulating trade at the
points where they are held, and for
that reason they also appeal ur the
business men of the town.
Sunitf-r Fairs In the Past.
“Many years ago," said a citizen-yes
terday, “Sumter county had some of
the finest county fairs ever held In
Georgia. Out where Mr. A. W. Smith
now lives there was a large tract of
land iVvoted to these fairs, with se /•
eral substantial buildings and a half-
mile race track. Many people we.-t
drawn here, not only from Sumter,
but from several adjacent counties,
and the annual fair at Americus be
came quite an event.-
"There Is no reason why this olrl-
tlme prestige should not he speMl'y
re-established. This county and sec
tion are immeasurably ahead, agricul
turally, of what they were twenty
yeans ago, the interest In diversified
agriculture has been enormously stim
ulated, our products are more varied
and of higher quality, and we fould
have exhibits that would far distance
anything in the old fair. Then, too, :we
have tk-e agricultural college to assist
us. The college has centered the at
tention. of farmers throughout this
congressional district on Americus
and Sumter county; the college would
undoubtedly make fine exhibits and
work to stir up enthusiasm gener
ally, and I' predict that the first fair
held would be such a success that Us
repetition from year to year would
be assured. >
Should Begin Work Soon.
3 think the Board of Trade should
take this matter up In the near fu
ture. It would be entirely In keep
ing with Its plan for advertising Sum
ter county and bringing farmers here
to locate. The fair would be a big
advertisement and both city and county
would reap benefits therefrom. Wh.it
better work could the city’s business
organization do than begin to lay the
plans to pull it off successfully and I
believe the Board might well take the
matter up at Its next meeting and be
gin to look ahead.’’
It Beats the Record Made By Brake
in 1900-Statement Is Made That
He Has Developed New Method of
Raising Corn.
Columbia, S. C., Nov. 1.—South Car
olina -has a boy who Is the champion
of the world as a corn grower. He Is
only 14 years of age and has produced
258 bushels of corn on one acre of
ground. His home is in Marlborough
county • where Drake produced 253
bushels about 10 years ago, which la
the greatest yield ever recorded for
one acre In the history of the world.
Tk-e name of this young marvel has
not been announced. He is a member
of the Boys’ Corn clubs and his records
are being examined by the United
States farm demonstration department
In Washington.
Unofficially it is stated that the boy
has developed a new method of corn
culture. The fu-ll story of how the
great yield was produced -will be print
ed as soon as It is announced by Dr.
Segman A. Knapp from Washington.
The boiy -has written a detailed account
of the yield, telling every step that
was taken.
The yield is much greater than that
of Basconibe Usher, the 17-year-old
boy who produced 152 1-2 bushels last
year and who won the national .prize
for the greatest product and on all
points.
All that is known about the boy is
that he is the son of a preacher . and
produced the wonderful yield on the
parsonage land. !
The yield of Drake of 253 bushels Is j
looked upon as a marvel. The yield of j
this unknown boy Is even greater. He
did all of the -work ‘himself.

THE TRUE TEST.
Tried In Americas, It Has Stood Tlic
Test.
TO LOOK INTO THE
MATTER OF A FAIR.
Committee to Prepare
Plan For Board.
At the meeting of the Board of Trade
Tuesday night a committee composed
of Prof. Cunningham, of the Agricul
tural College, Mr. Joel W. Hightower
and Secretary Gamble, were appoint
ed ‘ to look Into the advisabil
ity of havipg a county fair for Sum
ter county in Americus next fall and
to prepare a plan for such a fair, if
in its opinion the committee deemed it
probable that a fair could be -made a
success. The committee will take up
the matter in the near future, find out
what other counties ha vie recently
done on .this line, and report at a
/ater meeting in December.

The hardest test is the test of time,
and Doan's Kidney Pills have stood
It well In Americus. Kidney sufferers
can hardly ask for stronger proof than
the following:
, J. M. Oliver, of Americus, Os., says:
“I can recommend Doan's Kidney Pills
as an excellent remedy, for they did
me more goofl than all thie other prep
arations I ever tried. I suffered from
a dull pain In the small ot my back
which bothered me day and night and
the secretions from my kidneys were
“Doan’s Kidney Pills cured me about
pains still remained. It was finally
my good fortune to Iqarn ot Doan's
Kidney Pills and I procured a supply
at Dodson’s Pharmacy. They helped
me from the first, and In a short time
I was cured. (Statement given July
28, 1903.)
Cored to Stay Cured.
On Marih 28, 1908, Mr. Oliver said:
rubbed my back with llnlmenta but the
five years ago and I have bad no re
currence of my former trouble. I
have a great deal of confidence In
this remedy and gladly give it my re-
endorsement.’’
