When one party is using the

“Duplex” subscribers should

Magnificent Live Stock Show at
the Piedmont Fair at Greenwood
The Best Cattle and Swine of That Section of South Carolina
Piedmont on Exhibition---Fair a Splendid Success-- Diver
sified Farmers Show How to Make Farms Self-Sustaining.
, WALTER E. DUNCAN,
Staff Correspondent,
The Augusta Herald.
Greenwood, 8. C.—ln a previous ar
ticle written from Greenwood, what, is
being done to make Greenwood county
a grain growing section was told. The
visitor at tin Piedmont Fair, held hero
Wednesday, Thuraday and Friday of
thlH week, carries away the Impres
sion that Greenwood is already a live
stock county. At no county fair held
at any place in a radius of a hundrej
miles of Augusta Ims there, been auiEo
1 a live stock show.
| This Is the second year of the Pled
| inunt Fair 1 atn told that the good It
j Is doing throughout this section Is al
| ready apparent. It Is this year one of
iho best attended county expositions
j I have visited, and because of exist
ing conditions the fair Is full of ap
peal to all, farmers and townspeople
alike.
The cattle and swine show here is,
as a whole, the finest exhibited at any
county fair of which I know, nor Is
this feature of the Piedmont Fair lim
ited to one or two exhibitors. Herds
of fine Jersey and lied Pole cattle are
shown by Mr. T. P. Henderson of
Phoenix, and by Mr. T. P. Lee; Devons
i by Mr. D. It. Tompkins and Mr. W.
T. H. Handers, and some splendid
Hereford cattle by Mr. 8. C. Riley of
Hodges.
Two Aberdeen Angus heifers, 38 and
41 months old. brought direct from
pasture and shown by Mr. J. F. Davis,
proprietor of the Itosetnont Farm, nea:
Greenwood, attracted unusual atten
tion. Mr. Davis also exhibited Bonio
of tils flneat sbeep.
Hogs Plentiful Around Ninety-Six.
From the Ninety-Six section of
Greenwood county came the most ani
the finest of the hogs shown at tht
Piedmont Fair.
Mr. J. R. Werts, from Nlnety-Hlx,
hud on exhibition here tits prize win
ning D'uroc-Jersey boar—three and a
half years old, weighing about 950
pounds. This fine hour took blue rib
bons at the State Fair In Columbia
and the Georgia-Carolina Fair In Au
gusta In 1913 and further honors were
lumped upon him here. Among Mr.
Werts’ other showings in Iluroc-Jer
seys was a sow anil litter of pigs two
weeks old, ami many fine pigs threo
months old, gills and young boars.
Homo splendid Essex swine wns
shown by Mr 1,. P. Handers, of Nlnety-
Hlx.
A Poland China boar, between one
and two years old, shown by Mr. L. E
Summers, of Ninety-Six, was a blue
ribbon winner.
A Diversified Farmer.
The Piedmont Fair lacked only one
tiling -a more complete allowing In the
agricultural department but tills lack
was iluc to the fact llmt the countv
demonstration agent had carried t t
the State Fair In Columbia an exhibit
i that would have been shown here ex
Copt Hint the dates of ttie two shows
conflicted.
If lacking In quantity there was no
lack In quality, however.
One diversified farmer of Greenwood
county, Mr. Will N. Henderson, of
Phoenix, bad on exhibition a magnifi
cent display of farm products, all made
on ht* place -In all "6 different arti
cles, mostly food for man and beast.
Another Mr. R K. Henderson, of t.lal
llson, In tbla count> displayed almost
as fine anil as complete a variety.
In addition to these Individual dis
plays. a great deal of selected corn,
Including some of the work of the
hoys’ corn club, and other loud and
forage crops were shown.
Poultry.
Only st the Htale Fair In Columbia
h ice 1 seen a more comprehensive or
h finer poultry show tliuii was In
eluded tn the Piedmont Fair
Home of the better bowings were
the illuo Andalusian cockerel and pu.-
lets, by Mr. Toni P. Lipscomb, Ntnety-
Hlx; Mottled , Anconas and Hano i
Rocks, by Mr. M. C. Taggart; Golden
l.aced Wyandotte*, by Mr Jl. It. Slew
art. Fountain Inn, Ringlet Marred
Rocks, by Mr. K. C. Connor; Whitt
Crested Black Polish pullets, by Mr.
C. C Fuller; White Plymouth Hocks,
by Mr. W. K. Ellis, and a pen of White
Orpingtons, by Mr. Harvey Lutnlvy,
which easily took first prize.
Burying a Fallacy.
The only cotton ahown ut the Pied
mont Fair, a eta Ik loaded with open
bolls of the fleecy staple and hanging
from a column In the spacious exhibi
tion hall, was tied with crepe. At
tached to the sombre black was a
placard bearing the legend: "Too Much
Cotton- Never Again." While It i*
doubtful whether anyone would agree
that King Cotton has been dethroned,
this little b) play serves well to ex
press what is believed to be the ruling
sonjLtment of the farmers of this sec
tion that too much dependence has
In the past been placed In cotton and
that cotton has been too much de
pended upon as a money crop. It au
gurs well, ns doe* the whole of the
Piedmont Fair, for the future of thla
rich and fertile Piedmont countr;.
Attracting Farmers’ Attention.
In this connection, loklng towards n
belter future, the farmers attending
the Piedmont Fair find the Fntted
States parcel post exhibit shown licre
very Interesting to them.
How tile parcel post may be used by
Tanners for the profitable marketing
of freah products, forming the con
necting link between the farm, where
they are grown, and the consumers'
tables. Is practically demonstrated, and
In the display of boxes and crates to
be used for shipping eggs, vegetables,
etc, greater possibilities are shown to
exist in the parcel post than the ave
rage farmer had thought for, so far as
he t» directly concerned, and It ts of
direct benefit to'him.
Schools’ Exhibit.
The Greenwood county schools have
a splendid exhibit, especially that of
the achool at Ninety H \. which #*>c
tlon furnishes no small . irt of the
Piedmont Fair The Woman's College
at I hie West. Lander College, and the
Halley Military Institute, which was
formerly the Houth Carolina Co-K«lu
cattonnl Institute, located at Kdge
fleld. all make most creditable show
ings in their exhibits.
The fancy' work department, under
the supervision of Mrs 1). A. tl Outx;
the flowrer department, of which Mr*.
A. F McKiastck Is suiiertnlendeuL and
the household department, preaided
over by Mrs. H H Kills, as welt as
the art department, which Mrs. Jones
Fuller has in chsrge, combine to pre
sent those thing* which delight the
hearts of women and form a very Im
portant part of the county exposition
In this Piedmont country every nisn
| and *\cry woman loves a good horsy.
The races held ever afternoon on a
splendid course, have been very popu
lar.
In spite of exlstlpg financial and
business conditions the Piedmont Fair
has this year proved a success and
those who are responsible for the show
deserve credit. Of the Piedmont Fair

A CORRECT DIAGNOSIS.
To The Herald;
Success In restoring a family to
self-support depends primarily upon
an accurate diagnosis of the cause of
Its trouble.
In working to solve these family
problems the condition of each mem
ber of the family, learned through
friendly visits and Inquiry, will be
carefully considered and the best pos
sible plan devised to see them through
their difficulties. Relatives and
friends, who know the family better
than the casual visitor are consult
ed regarding the plan.
The Associated Charities of Au
gusta employs every available means
not only to learn but to meet the
needs of families who seek Its aid.

Their First Loss.
New York,—Mid-season In college
football finds five of the leading teams
tn the East undefeated Princeton,
Harvard, West Point, Plttßburg and
Pennsylvania States Of these Har
vard’s eleven has on its hands today
the most serious task, since It faces
Michigan, while the other four are
playing teams looked upon as being not
so formidable. The crimson’s game
with the Westerners—their first
meeting since 1895—is one of the sea
son’s best gridiron attractions, and is
the third dash between East and
West this fall.
In four games between Harvard and
Michigan, dating back to 1881, Mich
igan has lost each by a ehut out
score.
Of tho other four undefeated lead
ing Eastern elevens, Princeton plays
Williams, West Point meets Villa
Nova, Pittsburg plays Dickinson and
Pennsylvania' State plays EaFayette.
These opponents to today did not meet
last year. The only member of the
so-called big five to play today
against an eleven which won from it
In 1913 Is Yale, which meets Colgate.

more than it is claimed to do.”—Mrs.
