FOUR TIMES WINNER.
Marathon County Again Excells in
State Fair Agricultural
Exhibit.

For a fourth time Marathon county
and Northern Wisconsin has been
honored at the state fair and this coun-
ty has carried off the plum in the agri-
cultural exhibit The years 1873, 1900,
1901 and 1908 exhibits were made and
resulted in blue ribbon for Marathon
in open competition with what has
heretofore been considered the best
farming counties Of the state. Last
year we made no entry. The winning
of successive prizes at this fair has
materially strengthened Marathon's
claim of being one of The best farming
sections in the country, and has heen
persuasive argument in bringing
new settlers to the county. A compar-
ison of the figures shows that
this county excells in a number of pro-
ducts, and the showing made in fruit
was especially good when compared
with older countless:

q large congregation turned out to
greet him.
There was a part of the morning

mon the voices of twelve girls from
the Sunday school were heard singing
in the little room off the pulpit. The

and these are the words they heard :
"We are a happy little band,
1--WE are sc glad today.
"Our pastor has returned again,
"And with us he will stay.
"We love to hear his voice again
ITO preach, and sing and pray.
"We know he loves to see us here,
ION this the Sabbath day."
AS the children came out on the
pulpit the pastor was visibly moved.
1t was a greeting that few pastors are
given and when it was time to give
out q hymn Mr.. Ferris could hardly
control his emotion. He afterward
preached a powerful sermon from the
text, "Open Thou his eyes that he
may see."
