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.
