WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 7. Health First In buying food articles we must consider several things—economy, results, conveni ence, reliability; but the most important is Health. Health means everything. If one gets cheated in buying dresses, shoes or bonnets it is provoking, but the harm is chiefly loss of money. In buying food articles, if imitations or poor stuffs are supplied, there is a loss of money and probably an injury to health also; and good health is beyond price. Remember these facts when buying baking powder. bawngpcwler Absolutely Pure No Alum Country Fall Fair Season Opens in the South at Woodruft North Georgia Fair WALTER E. DUNCAN, Staff Correspondsnt, The Augusta Herald. Winder, Ga. —All 1s In readiness for the opening of the Woodruff North Georgia' Fair, which will run through Saturday. The splendid grounds, easily accessible to the heart of town, be speak the hard work that has been done to insure a repetition of the big success of the fair, year before last, and profiting by the experience of that accomplishment the promoters believe that tills year the crowds will be even A Special Sale of Cotton Goods 36-in.

One thing Is assured—the ag ricultural and live stock exhibits are better, more complete, and there are more of them; and In arranging the events for this big and gala week in Winder many features which are hound to prove popular have been added. The Woodruff North Georgia Fair takes its name from Its promoters, the men who are so full of public spirit that the fair Is the outlet for it and almost, It would seem from their Interest, hard work and enthusiasm, a part of them 36-in.

Win der, tlie city, furnishes the grounds and the electric light, the Woodrulf brothers, led by Mr. G. W. Woodruff, who is the moving spirit, furnish the money and the executive force, and progressive farmers from portions of the counties, furnish the exhibits, all combining to produce a fair worthy of the name. New County Celebration. Winder is at present partly in Wal ton and partly in Jackson counties. At the last session of the Georgia leg islature a new county was formed, comprising portions of Walton, Jack son and Gwinnett, and taking the name of Barrow county, which was the suc cessful culmination of ten years of en deavor. Barrow county having been authorized, it will become a fact. It will take its place among the counties of the Empire State of the South, be coming effective on the first day of next January, with Winder the county seat. A court house is then to be con structed and the government of the new county of Barrow established. It is partly In celebration of the success of the new county that the Woodruff North Georgia Fair is being held this year—partly that and partly because not only the Jfessrs. Wood ruff but hundreds of farmers through out this section realize that with the South facing the present crisis noth ing : s so important and nothing 1s so vital as pointing out to the Southern farmer the necessity of turning now to diversity of crops, to the making of home products, to Jive stock raising and to scientific agricultural methods. Chancellor Barrow Will Speak. It is most befitting that on Thurs. day of this week, which has been des ignated both as Barrow County Dav and as Athens Day, the man from whom the new county takes Its hon ored name, Chancellor David C. Bar row of the University of Georgia, will deliver on the fair grounds an ad dress, his subject to be agriculture. It is an interesting fact that Chancel lor Barrow is the only living man for whom a county has been named. On the same day, Thursday, the big day of the fair, the women attending are Invited and urged to wear dresses made of cotton checks, not ginghams and lawns, but old-fashioned cotton dresses, as an example of their loyalty to the South and the Southern farm. Prizes have been offered for the neat est dress made of cotton checks. To add to the popularity of the day and to give Athens an opportunity to advertise herself In this section, an in vitation has been sent to the people of Athens through the Athens Chamber of Commerce, to attend and large num bers of people are expected. Among live stock exhibitors at the Woodruff North Georgia Fair are Mesars. W H. Wheats, Henry Hill, J. F. Sheets, L. P. Williams, D. P. Camp and P. W. Quattlebaum, all successful farmers. Diversified Farming Gains Foothold. Diversified farming has gained a firm foothold In this section. Nearly all small land-owning farmers buy their flour but little else. Progress has been made In recent years. Home men who are in the front ranks, hav ing forged forward through diversi fied farming, are Messrs. M. R. May nard, P. R. Smith, J. W. Casper and W. W’. Summerau, all of whom are exhibitors at the fair. My attention wbh attracted by the show window display at the Woodruff Hardware Company’s store, especially arranged for fair week. The windows are given over to a home products fits- Pluy. There in profusion of plenty and us an illustration of what any farmer in this section can produce at home If he will, are pumpkins, corn, peas, watermelons, sorghum cane, oats rye, plnders, sweet potatoes, syrup, flour, hum, .preserves, canned fruits and vegetables—all, everything pro duced In a few miles of Winder. On the fair grounds the visitors this week will see many such exhibits and displays, followers of the Idea of di versity competing for the prize mon eys. There are in all 45 contests— there is to be plenty of stirring music —there Is to be an aeroplane flight dally—there is, of course, to be a car nival. The contest* are so arranged a* to give encouragement not only to the farmer, to strive to get the most out of the soil, but to the farmers' wives, through the ladies' domestic fHE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. department, the flower show; to the boys, through their corn clubs; to the girls, through canning clubs; to the children, through their schools. Sub stantial money prizes are offered and particular attention is being given to the poultry show department and to the industrial department. There are to he oratorical contests for boys and girls, automobile and floats parades, boy scouts parade, school contests, old fashioned spelling-bees and a fiddlers' convention. Governor Slaton Will Attend. Besides Chancellor Barrow other speakers on the program during the week are Governor John M. Slaton and State Superintendent of Schools M. 1.. Brittain, for Tuesday; Hon. Charles S. Barrett, president of the National Farmers’ Union; Hon. J. D. Price, corn miss' ner of agriculture; Dr A. M. Soule, president of the state college of agriculture, for Wednesday. Thurs day, ns stated, will be Burrow County and Athens Day. Friday will he Old Folks or Home Coming Day, to be enlivened by an old fiddlers’ convention and a Con federate veterans' reunion. Rev. H. N. Rainey will be master of ceremo nies with Rev. A. R. Reeves, an able assistant. In charge of the fiddlers' contests will be Mr. Robert L. Stan ley of Dacula and Mr. John W. Moore of Bethlehem. Saturday will he given over to the negroes. The negro farmer has not been forgotten or overlooked in the preparations for the fair, and special prizes and contests have been arranged for them. One of the novel restores of the fair is the pumpkin contest Inaugurated last April by the Winder Dry Goods Company, for which three cash prizes —for the largest, next largest and third largest pumpkin—are offered, the seed having been furnished farmers free by tilts enterprising firm. Woodruff* Deserve Great Credit. I have said that It is to Mr. G. W. Woodruff and his brothers that credit Is due for the fair, but It is not to be mistaken that the enterprising citizens of Winder are not lending their co operation and assistance. There Is a co-operative board composed of Messrs. H. A. Carlthers, Jr., J. F. Adams, A. D. McCurry, W. J. Griffith, W. H. Toole, J. E. Jackson, J. B. Wil liams, J. 1,. Saul, J. T. Wags, Frits Potts, Claud Mayne, T. A. Maynard, W. T. Robinson, L. A. House, L. I.ove, W. C. Horton, R. O. Ross. A. H. O'Neal, Li. A. Huff and C. M. Ferguson, all of whom have joined heartily Into the movement led by Mr. Woodruff for the benefit of the agricultural Interests of this section. Winder is a thoroughly alive, pro gressive and enterprising little city. Her people are public spirited, as was demonstrated In a substantial manner when the day after the ‘buy-a-bale" movement was first suggested Winder merchants and business houses took 560 bales of cotton on account, paying ten cents a pound for it. The four banks, the First National, the Winder flanking Company, the North Georgia Trust Company and the Farmers' Bank, have a combined capital of J300,- 000, and the Caruthers Banking Com pany, a private bank, with a capital larger than any one of the others, are disposed to help the cotton farmers, lending them every possible aid in the present holding movement. Concerns like the Woodruff Machin ery Company are writing their North “Give Me Another Cup 99 Just deliciously wholesome coffee with all the goodness of the coffee bean retained.

Farquhar Company of York, Pa., tills concern has sold sixty five bales of cotton, or rather the cot ton lias been sold through the Wood ruff Company. Griffith, I till and Com pany, supply merchants; Mr. \V. G. Graham, and the Winder Dry Goods Company are taking cotton on account at 10 cents, and the Winder Oil Mill Company Is accepting cotton on the same basis in payment of fertilizer debts. It is believed here that the cotton acreage throughout this section wtll he cut at least one-third next year. That the farmers are already making prog ress is indicated by the fact that the Woodruff Machine Company has this year sold more grain threshers in this section than ever before In one Hesson. These threshers are manufactured here in Winder, sixty men being employed In the shops. Mr. J. T. Moore, living near Winder, and who, It may be assured, will have something of Interest to show at the fair, has found a ready market, in Florida, for lilh late watermelons. The watermelon season in Florida has been over some time. For several weeks Mr. Moore lias been shipping a car load a day, having sent his son on to place the melons, he is getting a good price for them. But of even greater interest —for all the peas, plain field peas or cowpeas, which Mr. Moore can ship to the Florida markets—-and ho planted great quantities—he Is getting $3 a bushel in the hull.
