best as a country Squire, master of
the great estate which covers $4,000
acres of hill and valley in this most
rugged part of rugged Orange county
His general superintendent, his mas
ter carpenter, his master mason and
the managers and assistant managers
of his diaries, his farms and his trot-
ting stables were the men who bore
his coffin and the services were led
by his own chaplain.

BIG PRIZES FOR
THE BEGINNERS

One great handicap to beginners in
the live stock or poultry business is
that they are brought into COMPETE
ton at fairs with old and experienced
exhibitors, and when they are defeat
ed for premiums they become discour-
aged and quit Now, the Tri-State
Fair, at Memphis, Tenn, Sept. 2Sth-
Oct. 9th, has decided to take care Of
the beginners, and at the fair this
fall every encouragement is offered
to beginners. Special classes for the
best horses, mules, cows, hogs, sheep,
chickens, etc, raised in Mississippi,
Arkansas, Alabama and West Ten
nessee are offered, and are well worth
winning. The fair realizes the begin
ners need encouragement and thinks
the best way to let the beginners
show against each other. However,
il they have first-class stock, they MAJ
also compete in the open rings against
the Indiana, Kentucky, Middle Tennes-
see and Missouri breeders, who win
bring their prize-winning stock to the
fair, These big prize-winners VIII
show the Southern farmer what he
can do with the same amount of work.
There is no good reason why the
Southern planter should send hun
dreds of miles for his work mules, his
horses or his bacon and eggs. The
fair wants the planter to come and
see what others are doing, for he can
10 the same.
The fair offers good premiums for
,very kind of farm product, fruit,
LARRY product honey, etc, It is the
most complete fair ever held In the
south. Send for a catalogue Re-
Iuced rates by rail and river.
