Yates, of Spencer, have been here for a few days visit-' ing their parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Yates. Last Thursday they joined tho other members of the family and the family of Mr. M. T.

To the farmers and others of Lee county’: Please bear in mind that there will be a county fair at this place this fall and you are expected to not only be presejnt yourself, but to have an exhibit of some kind to help make the fair a success. This fair wil be. on a larger scale than —- any fair ever before held in this sep tion and those who have the making of the fair in charge want everybody to have a part in its success* Re member that this is a permanent en terprise if it can have your support and the support of’other in the coun ty You may not be able to help the fair financially in a big way, but by having attractive displays of things that go to make a god fair, you can render vepy effective help. The Sanford Brick and Tile Com pany has 700,000 brick ready to be shipped to Fort Bragg to be used in carying out an ambitious building program that was put on there a fef*v months ago by the Federal govern ment;. A number of buildings are now under construction and others will be constructed as fast as they can be; reached. The Sanford Brick end Tile Company has already fum ished one million brick for buildings .under construction at the fort. An immense sum of money is to be used in carrying out this project and the Sanford. Brick and TiLe Company has the contract to furnish all the brick to be used. Perhaps all the wooden buildings will be removed and brick buildings constructed. « Mr. W. F. Wood, who has charge of the Farmers' Tobaco Warehouse at Dillon, S. G.f this season, left for that place last Sunday accompanied by his family. The market opened at that place this wejek.

Many of the planters in the section have, gatherjfd and cured much of the crop .and will no doubt have some of it .graded and ready for • the opening oay. The crop is good in Lee coun ty and seems to \>e curing up nicely. It is now thought that there will be as much tobacco raised in this sec tion as there was last year. If one is to judge by the way tobacco is selling in Georgia and South Caro lina, good prices will obtain here. Mr. Wra. M.
