CONTEST IS
PROGRESSING
Many Good Farm Products
are Entered,
PEAR ATTRACTS ATTENTION
Contest Started by Marion Pro-
gress for Progress-Dysart
Prizes Moves Along
Nicely,
THt 4- i. 1-1 .
j-iic v;jm.esL wnicn was
luausru-
rated several weeks ago by the
Marion Progress for prizes to be
given by this paper and H. W.
Dysart is growing in interest every
day and some of the finest products
grown in this section of the State
have been entered. Both the Ma
rion Progress and Mayor Dysart
in giving these prizes are trying to
show to the outside world that
farm products as tine as can be
found anywhere are raised in this
section of the State.
We want every farmer in theE. Mason, J. A. Durham and
uuuuiy to enter something in the! Ueriot I larkson, of this city, and '
contest. He stands to wip free I Mr. W. H. Sumner, of Lincoln
insurance and n f
to the Marion Progress and he can- i
not loose anything by entering.
No fee is charged and the name of
every contestant will be published
from week to week until the end
of the contest.
We have made a display in our
windows of the apples, pears, corn,
turnips and etc brought in and
hundreds of people have looked at
them and marveled. A gentlemen
came into our office to-day and
said that he never dreamed such
apples as we had on exhibition
could be raised in this section of
the State.
You do pot have to come to Ma
rion to enter an: foducts in the
contest Just send them and your
name by some neighbor, the variety
of the prochact and we wil enter it.
Sever&l of our most prominent
farmers have promised to bring in
products which have anything we
now have on exhibition exceelled
and if in town it will be worth
your while to take a look in our
window.
The following have entered the
contest:
Seagle Halliburton, three ears
of corn and C. M. Huskings of
Rocky Pass, two ears. Both of
these entries are good.
In apples K. S. Allison, of Old
Fort, has entered three which will
be hard to beat.
They are a white apple of excellent
shape and firmness. Thev are a
white apple of excellent shape and
firmness. They are of the May
flower variety.
Master Frank Norton, of Mar-
ion, entered six apples of the lien
Davis variety, which are also good.
The six apples weigh four pounds.
C. M. Huskins, of Old Fort, haa
also entered an apple which will be
in the running. This apple weigh
ed about one pound.
Mrs. M. R. Tate, of Greenlee,
has entered so far decidedly the
largest and best single apple,
though only being one apple it will
not count as much as if it had been
several. Sometimes one apple
which measures up well can be
found on a poor tree, though we
understand that this is not the case
with Mrs. Tate and that she could
have entered several just as large.
John Strouce, of Demraing and
ST M. Collis, have entered two
turnips, both weighing about five
pounds, which are a stand-off.
The exhibit which attracted the
most attention was a pear entered
by C. D. Corpening, of Marion,
route 1. This pear weighed one
pound and three ounces and was
perfect in all respects.
Do not wait until the last week
or so before entering this contest.
Send or bring in your products this
week. Even if you do-not win a
prize you show the people of this
section what fine products can be
grown here.
