OBSERVATIONS.
By Rambler.
“Did you feel the earth shake?”
asked a big fat lady at the ball park
last Saturday, as she went to sit down
on the grass and her foot slipped.
“Yes,” replied her companion, “I
thought it was an earth quake.”
“This has been one of the hottest
summers 1 believe I ever felt,” re
marked a lady. “It used to be along
this time of year that the days wouid
be warm but the nights would be real
cool. Not that way so far. Tne days
c.. and the nights do
not begin to cool off until way after
midnigiit.”
“Squirrels must be plentiful over
in Hickory Mountain,” spoke a citizen
tne otiier day. “A young man went,
out o~e morning early last week and
k.ued 17 almost before breakfast. And
xhuicua/ morning “Doc” Griffin and
J. Dewey Dorsett went over there and

“I see some of the colored people
who went over into Pennsylvania from
Pittsboro, looking for barrels of mon
ey at the end of the rainbow, have
returned. One of them told me that,
Chatham county was good enough for
him and he did not want any more of
Pennsylvania’s soil on his shoes,” said
one of our citizens yesterday.
“Johnnie Clark had a tedious job
ahead of him the other day,” remark
ed a citizen. “At odd times he counted
the number in a pound of turnip seed.
He got to 8,000 and some over, but if
he had wanted to find the quantity of
seed in a pound, why didn’t he count
the number in an ounce and multiply
the sixteen ounces and save a lot of
counting.”
“My turnips are just biling out of
the ground,” remarked a Pittsboro
wife to her husband. And the husband
walked out into the garden to see the
sight, as the seed had been sown only
about two days, and he found about a
dozen chickens scratching for all they
were worth. “Yes,” he told his wife,
“your seed are coming up, but the
chickens are causing them to do so.”

POULTRY AT THE FAIR.
Raleigh, Sept. B.—This is to be a
great Fair for chickens at the North
i Carolina State Fair. By that is meant
chickens of the feathery kind,
j A. G. Oliver, poultry expert for the
I agricultural extension service, who
1 probably knows more about poultry
than anybody else in North Carolina,
j says so and he ought to know, for
the State Fair poultry show has been
! his special hobby for years.
| It has been Oliver’s idea for some
i time that he would get the best chick
j en breeders of the country to come
to North Carolina to show their
chickens. He could have gotten them
long ago, if he had been willing to
hire them to come. But Oliver doesn’t
believe in doing things that way.
j The reputation of the poultry divis
ion of the North Carolina State Fair
has become nation-wide, and it Is
worth something to get a blue ribbon.
But good money will be offered this
year also as prizes in addition. More
than eleven hundred dollars are offer
ed in the special classification which
is open to all comers both in and out
of the state.
There are no reservations about it
and the poultry club boys and girls
have as good chance at the prizes as
anybody else. And they can win them
I in the big classes, this is shown by
! the fact that one of them got a prize
I in the Madison Square Garden show
in New York last year.
Then there is the regular classifi
cation with more than $1,600 in prizes
which is confined to North and South
Carolina, Georgia, Virginia and Tenn
essee.
Then there are some SSOO for the
poultry club boys and girls in their
own department, which will bring fine
| exhibits.
