THE COUNTY FAIR
By Pster Radford
lArturr-r Nstloosl Farmer*' Union
The farmer gets more out of the
fair than anyono elm. The fair to a
city man is an entertainment; to a
farmer It la education. Let us take a
stroll through the fair groundB and
linger a moment at a few of the points
of greatest Interest. We will first
visit the mechanical department and
hold communion with the world's
greatest thinkers.
You are now attending a congress of
the mental giants In mechanical sci
ence ol all ages. They are addressing
yon in tongues of Iron and steol and
in language mute and powerful tell an
eloquent story of tho world's progress.
The inventive geniuses are the most
valuable farm hands we have and
they perform on enduring service to
mankind. Wo can all help others for
? brief period while we live, but it
takes a master mind to tower Into the
realm of science and light a torch of
progress that will lllumlnato the path
w*y of vlvlllntlon for future genera
tions. The men who gave us the
sickle, the binder, the cotton gin and
hundreds of other valuable inventions
work In every field on earth and will
continue their labors as long as time.
Their bright Intellects have conquered
death and? they will live and serve
mankind on and on forever, without
money and without price. They have
shown os how grand and noble it Is
to work for others: they have also
taught us lessons In economy and effi
ciency, how to mako ono hour do tho
work of two o? more'; have length
ened our Uvea, multiplied our
opportunities and taken toll off the
baek of humanity. /
TtW* ?re the most practical men
the world ever produced. Their ln
vAUons have stood the acid test of
utility and efficiency . like all usoful
men, they do not seek publicity, yet
amiooa of machines sing their praises
from every harvest Held on earth and
as many plows tarn the soil In ante
applause of their marvelous achieve
ments
