Many of the visitors to the State fair yester-
day took advantage of the decreased attendance
to more fully examine the merits of the various
displays, and were we'll repaid by the attention
given their inquiries. In addition to the special
features already mentioned the Journal notes
the following
THE DEERING.
This popular harvesting machinery was dis
played during the week in a handsome pavilion
near the center of the east side of the grounds.
This display was not only the first one ready for
public inspection, but from first to last attracted
more attention than any other agricultural ma
chinery. One of their light running steel har
vester and binders was in full operation in the
center of the Deering building, and It's splendid
action and perfect symmetry received the high
est commentator from the thousands of farmers
who witnessed it, There are some machines
who make their reputation by brag and blow
| and putting in the newspapers. The behring's
reputation, at the head of harvesters, has not
been made that way. but has been gained by its
work in the field It's superiority stands forth
so apparent that the wayfaring man though
fool cannot make a mistake in his judgment,
when the Deering is put in competition with its
rivals. The efficient manager, j. T. Truett, dis
plays the true spirit of enterprise when he leads
all his rivals in the attractiveness and general
arrangement of his exhibit. The Deering never
takes back seat anywhere, whether at the State
fair or III the harvest field.
