" To Polk County Farmers. Now let me have your ears your hearts tor just a few T Arin't want von r pnrs 0Ul:lPf " if you wont listen with your Hearts; for the Good Book says "out of the heart, are the issues of life". It also says, "As a man thinketh inhis heart; so is he So what I am going to ask of you, is during the next two weeks to think fast, think cor rectly and then put your think ing into concrete action. Don't forget the fi ye community fairs will come off next week. The fair at Saluda, while held" to early in the season, and corn was full of sap, yet the corn on ex hibition showed wonderful ; pro gress since the first fair ; held there three years ago. The so cial feature at Saluda was excel lent. Everyone male" and fe male had on a smile that" would not rub off. Now $10.00 is an awful little thing when compar ed with Henry Ford's -holdings; but the honor of holding the best most orderly and most social fair is an honor that can't , be estima ted in dollars and cents. Some township " will win, which will it be? This $10.00 will be given with amazing pleasure, if the township receiving it will work and earn it I am going to add another condition, ana that is tjat no township shall be elligitha intelligence to do it? or shall .u.i. .x.x io; 0i, ble that does not put on exhibit become a laughing stock .and . , . , , . 7: - Jfon Vnr. ie.pt nf Kncocsnarwic au icaisu .v oampico ux win, u; ia . t xi.5 i. -3. iu ears per sample, i. xuinit-uit is auite reasonable and verv conX mle reasonaoie and very servative, becauseny, of .the townships might bring lOO.sam-i - lius miGrnt Drmu xuv sain-1 " pies. Now which towrishipwill make the greatest eff orU to hold the best fair and win this, prize of $10.00?
