Statesboro, Ga. -The west .ships In to Georgia each year millions of dol lars worth of foodstuffs and feedstuff* the hay shipments and the oat* ship ments In a single year amounting to more than $€3,000,000. If the prime purpose behind the county fair* held throughout the state* is wervad by these great educational agcncle*. Western fnrrnor* will soon face the necessity of finding a market elsewhere than In Georgia for their corn, oats, hay and meat. The Bulloch County Fair ha* be come an Institution. Htateaboro and Bulloch County owe* a lot to Mr. J. R. Miller, editor of The Btate*boro New*, end the mo*! enthu*if»Hilc and one of the mo*t successful fair promoters in Georgia.. In spite of existing condi tions, € cents cotton and depression caused by the European war, the fair was put op this year, Mr. Miller be lieving that because of the vital ne cessity of the farmer* of this section finding a substitute for cotton and be coming self-sustaining now, the coun ty f«lr whs more essential this year than ever before. Nor would the visitor to the grounds gather the impression from the agri cultural and livestock exhibits, in gen eral as splendid as are shown at any county fair In this section, that this Ik an afi*octton county. Perhaps too much cotton has been raised, in fact there is no denying it. but the mag nificent. displays of agricultural prod ucts at the Bulloch County Fair, the swine, the cattle and the livestock, but particularly the farm product* exclusive of cotton indicate beyond doubt that throughout thl* splendid section there are farmers who have, through diversifying, gained their in- IF KIDNEYS IRE H TRY DUCHU Mixed With Juniper Ib Old Folks’ Recipe For Flushing Kidneys— Stops Back ache and Uric Acid.

Many Atttractive Features. The fair is less of a show than It is on education course, blit the arnu«e --! ment features have not been over booked. More attention is given to in- Istriiction than lo entertainment, though in addition to showing the largest gourds and the biggest pump kins raised in the county, the midway is here the fakir in all his glory with varied and sundry assortment of freaks and there is plenty of music and every afternoon races are run in which the fastest horses of this sec tion are entered. Mr. Miller lias put on as complete a county fair as one would care to see, and it typifies the agricultural progress of the county, shows one farmer what another Is doing and in spires the all-cotton farmer to greater and bette** things. An Unusual Exhibit. A highly instructive and most val uable exhibit is made by the First District Agricultural School, of which Mr. Miller has the hearty co-operation in holding each year the county fair. Not only arc shown a variety of ag ricultural product* made at the school farm, but among other things the boll weevil Is explained. Pome of Ihe In sect* are shown under glass. The warning is Issued that the weevil is corning this way, and the cotton far mers are urged to co-operate with the agencies at work to starve them out and stamp them out. It i* likewise shown how the agricultural school keeps its cattle free from ticks. The practical use of the spray pump to successfully combat and guard against, the deadly San Jose Scale is also shown. Th*» Agricultural School ha* bsou breeding corn for the past four year*, and some splendid specimens are on exhibition. Prof. IC. C. J. Dickens is In charge of thl* exhibit. The Home Economic* Department of the First District Agricultural School, occupying a separate building, is attracting ns much attention as anything on the fair grounds, espe cially the attention of the women vis itor*. An exhibit i* here made show ing the practical work that Is done by the girls attending the agricultural school sewing and needlework, fancy work, arfrl canning and preserving fruit* and vegetables. . Plenty of Everything. Including a wide variety of product* of the live-ttt-home farmer, Ml J. W. Williams make* the heat lnulvidual display In the agricultural depart* ment. Hardly anything the soil will produce that some of it 1* not shown. Messrs, J. I*. Franklin Son*, J.

The most complete poultry show I have seen at a county fair anywhere this season forma an Important part of the Bulloch fair, and it is rather an important fact that the birds are ex - hibited In dosens of different people rather than by two or three poultry men, showing that throughout this section the importance of this profit able Industry Is fully reallxed and that many are realising from this source of profit. Among the better showings are some beautiful Rhode Island Reds, by Mr H S. Harr. Sr ; several pens of Anconas and White Plymouth Rocka, by Mr J Arthur Bunch: Buff Or pingtons. White Beg horns.
