ROGERS TO TRAVEL
FOR COUNTY FAIR

Beginning about September l,
County Demonstration J. E. Pogers
will make a thorough canvass of The
county in the interest of the forth
coming county fair. Mr.. Rogers will
seek to secure from every farmer
some exhibits to be entered at the
fair and it is believed that his per-
sonal solicitation will result in a great
quantity of products being brought
in.
Aside from helping to make the
county fair bigger success than ev-
err before, Mr.. Rogers, whose expenses
are borne jointly by the county land
congress and the fair association, will
work with view of getting a splendid
line of exhibits for the state fair at
Hot Springs in October. He made a
special trip to the springs few days
ago and secured ample quarters, the
pick of the exhibit halls, in which to
display Faulkner county products. 1t
is thought IL the farmers cooperate
in this movement the county can
easily win one of the big prizes offer
ed by the state fair. In addition to
this the owner of every article or pro
duct carried to Hot Springs will be
| in the competition for the individual
prizes and will be awarded the money
his entry wins. No expense will at
| tach to carry any exhibit from the
county fair to the state fair, except
livestock, as the fair association will
provide special car in which to carry
these exhibits to Hot Springs.
No entrance fee whatever will be
charged for any exhibit at the county
or state fair, except that at either
fair, owners of livestock will be eX-
pected to arrange feed for their stock.

Little Rock Baptists
Worship on Church Roof

Little Rock, August 26.-In Little
Rock is the only church roof garden
in the state, and one of the very few
in the United States. The roof of a
portion of the Second Baptist church
is fiat and level. The congregation
has decided to strengthen it and use
it as a roof garden for evening ser
vices until cool weather, and this plan
has been so far carried out that by
next Sunday evening services will be
held on the church roof. An organ
has already been placed on the root
which is reached by a stairway built
on the outside.
