PRACTICAL FARMERS CLUB.
1t was the writer's privilege to attend
the regular meeting of the Practical
Farmers Club of Belmont County, held
on Saturday at the beautiful and well ar
ranged home of Mr.. and Mrs. Romance
HOgue.
The Club is in reality what its name
would indicate-a Practical Farmers
Club-being composed of twelve of Bel
mont County's most successful farmers,
with their wives sons and daughters.
The meeting was called to order by the
President, Mr. John Atkinson; the Secre-
tary, Mrs. r. Hogue, read the minutes of
the proceeding meeting, when followed
the regular exercises Readings, Recita-
tions, Essays and the discussion of the
question, "Does Modern Improvements
Lessen Women's Labor" by the ladies of
the Society. After which the gentlemen
discussed the question, "Does CONNER
cial Fertilizers Pay the Average Farmer"
The entire programme both by the ladies
and gentlemen was fully carried out,
each one coming prepared to perform the
part assigned them and, without excep-
ton, the performances would have done
credit to a much more pretentiOus liter
ary society. After three hours pleasant
ly and proftably spent in these exercises
the entire party of about forty persons
sat down to an elegant supper prepared
by the hostess, and if that was a fair
sample of all the suppers given at the
Club meetings, there are at least twelve
excellent cooks in that vicinity. After
supper the company spent the evening in
groups on the lawn and in the orchards
in social conversation-and, by the way,
Mr.. Hogue has the largest orchards and
is the most successful fruit grower in
Belmont county.
1t would be well if every neighborhood
in Belmont county had just such sOcie-
ty. 1t is hardly possible to over estimate
the value of this association. 1t makes
the farmers more social and it stimulates
to better cultivation of the farm and es-
pecially of the mind, and influences will
go out therefrOm which cannot fail to be
for good and only for good. VISITOR.

WEST VIRGINIA STATE FAIR.

WEST VIRGINIA STATE r AK.
Our readers will learn by reference to
our advertising columns that the ninth
annual exhibition of that great West
Virginia Exposition and State Fair will
be held on Wheeling Island, September
9th to 18th inclusive. Through the en-
ergetic labOrs of the managers and the
liberal support of over fifty thousand peo-
pie that attended last year from Ohio,
Pennsylvania, West Virginia and many
other States, that institution has grown
to be the largest annual exposition in the
Ohio River Valley. More than usual in
terest has been manifested by the exhib-
itors in securing space for displays. The
purses offered for the fourteen races,
composed of six running, five trotting
and three pacing races, are unusually
large. From entries made, and present
indications, it may be said that these
purses.will be competed for by large
number of noted horses. The manage
ment has spared neither time, money or
ingenuity to make the coming exposition
grand success, SURPRISING all preceding
ones.
The display of horses, cattle, sheep,
swine and poultry, it is known, will be
unusually large, and in the exposition,
floral, machinery, agricultural and chill
dren's departments, visitors will find a
feast for the mind that cannot fail to af-
ford pleasure, instruction and profit.
All railroads leading into the city of
Wheeling will aid the managers in get
ting out big crowds to see the Fair, and
in making it grand success, by offering
tickets to go and return at invitingly low
rates to passengers, and free return of
stock and machinery by freight as usual.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1889-08-08

In another month the Fair will be here
September 3, and 5. If favored with
good weather, the managers hope to, in
large measure, recover from the reverses
caused by the tornado and the failure
of last year, caused by steady rains.
They deserve the cordial cooperation of
all the people, and we have no doubt will
receive it.

CATARRH,
Catarrhal Deafness and Hay Fever.
A NEW HOME TREArNIENT.

Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence of living parasites in
tachian tubes. Microscopic research, how
ever, has proved this to be fact and the
result is that simple remedy has been for
mulated whereby catarrh, catarrhal deafness
and hay fever are permanently cured In
from one to three simple applications made
at home by the patient once in two weeks.
n. B.-For catarrhal discharges peculiar to
females (whites) this remedy is a specific.
A pamphlet explaining this new treatment
Is sent on receipt of ten cents by A. 81.
