sembly and Excel
lent Program.
Address, Sociability, Exchange of
Ideas, Brass Band and Spring
'E1ies" TO be Features of the Day,

The Annual Farmers picnic to be
held in the Cast grove at Prospect
promises to be the biggest and best
ever perpetrated by the agriculturists
of the country. In the words of one
of the promoters of the annual frolic,
it is to be some picnic.
The formal program included the
names of such interesting speakers as
j. Wilbur Jacoby, of Marion, and Rev.
j. w. sutton, the marrying parson, of
LaRue. who will tell of "The Farmer,
Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow"
Visitors will be welcomed by the may
or of the town, and the president of
the Marion County Agricultural asso-
ciation. Music will be represented by
a number of talented vocalists and by
a big brass band guaranteed to give
their entire attention to bestirring the
happy emou>ns that follow on the
trail of the favorite American music.
The real purpose of the picnic will
be the meeting and mingling of the
farmers of the county for sociability
and the exchange of ideas. Another
real purpose will be the hundreds of
bulging hampers slowed with the good
things of country garden and dairy
and poultry yard and orchard and the
big oven range. There will be tre-
mendous slaughter of innocents along
about the seventeenth when fat brown
spring fries will be sizzling everywhere
in the country homes of the country.
August Is is the date.

WILL PICNIC ON LABOR DAY
Some Novel Features Will
be Arranged.
Monday Evening the Bills VIII Meet
In Strayer's Alley 20 Talk Over the
Time They Fully Expect TO Have.

There will be a meeting of all of
the Bills in the county in the alley
next to Strayer's drug store, Monday
evening, to arrange the program for
the annual picnic which Will be held
on the fairgrounds, on Labor day. At
the meeting Monday evening lots will
be cast to determine who shall pur-
chase a bunch of bananas or a sack
of peanuts to feed the famished Bills
and either the one or the other will
serve as refreshments which will be
served In the alley with all of the
guests standing excepting those who
can be seated on the bench which Is
large enough to accommodate four
Bills, provided they are not too large.
1t is the plan to make the picnic
this year truly bigger and better and
some new features will be added to
the events to be scheduled. OF course
the feeding proposition will be the big
one of the day, for the Bills are noted
for their capacity and their willing
ness to fill an aching void. Then after
hash there will be automobile races,
horse racing, motorcycle racing after
which the race question will be set
tied for all time. Then there will be
some athletic events for the leans the
fats and all of those who were colts
when they were young This will in
clude the great majority Of the mem
bers of the organization for. as a wag
once expressed II, IL never saw an old
man who hadn't played hob when he
was young" During the afternoon
those of the organization who imagine
they have the gift of oratory will be
given an opportunity to demonstrate
their ability, or inability as the case
may be, to those of the assemblage
who have grown so tired that they
want to sit down or lie down and take
a nap. This feature will be held off
until late in the afternoon so that
those who desire may leave the
grounds without missing anything,
while those who remain may rest up
and gain little strength to carry
them home.
The Marion County Bill club Is fast
becoming one of the most notorious,
If not famous, In existence. The no.
toriety comes because of the personnel
of the membership and the popularity
of the name, while the fame was Sc
cured when during the last preslden-
tial election President William III. Taft
and near President William j. Bryan,
became honorary members of the or
ganization. Their framed letters of
acceptance of the honor and the red
bench in the alley form about the only
assets of the organization.

Many Out Of Town Wor-
shippers Arrive for Sab
bath Today.
Elder j. +. Olmstcd, Pastor of Co.
lunbus $. ID. A. Church an Elo-
qucnt Speaker of Thursday Even
ing-Spccial Program for Today.

The pavilion tent was crowded to
its capacity at the evening session of
the Seven Day Adventists Friday.
Aside from sectarian beliefs. the ad-
dresses are providing a storehouse of
gospel information, instruction and
general benefit, so that the members
or any religious denomination may
profit greatly by the work being done
at the Fairgrounds.
Last evening Elder J. f. Olmsted,
pastor of the ohio avenue 5. ID. church
of Columbus spoke eloquently and con
vlncingly on a part of the gospel ac-
cording to st, Matthew: This gospel
of the kingdom shall be preached in
all the world for a witness unto all
nations and then shall the end come"
Illustrations of the fulfillment of the
prophesy culled from many expert
ences in the home land and for four
years served in South Africa were
given by the speaker. Plainly, DR..
Olmsted is one of the practical
Christians who believe in practicing
religion in everyday life His mis-
sionary experiences of the efficacy Of
the gospel were most interesting.
Today is the Adventists Sabbath,
and a program of unusual merit has
been prepared for the worship of
campers and many of the domlna-
ton from out of town who will arrive
&C. spend their day of devotiOns in the
midst of their summer city.

land, mission worker recently re-
turned from the prolific South Amer
lean field, will be the speaker OF the
evening.
All seats are free and people of
every denomination or no denomina-
ton are equally welcome.
1t is worth a trip to the camp
grounds to see the well ordered
mushroom town with its genial,
courteous citizens extending the hand
of welcome while the calm and peace
of "a permeated spiritual atmosphere
hover fragrantly through the grove.

oklahoma's Crop Is Large, but the
Quality Is Inferior.

Guthrie, Okla, Aug. 24.-The state
board OF agriculture is to join with the
trunk line railroad companies In Okla.
homa IN an effort TO induce Oklahoma
farmers to SOW only pure seed wheat
to the end that no shipments Of mixed
wheat viii be sent TO outside markets.
A Better Wheat Train will be sent
to the wheat growing counties, with
lecturers. and exhibits of wheat and
flour, to make plain to the farmer how
he may increase his profits in raising
wheat.
II Is estimated that Oklahoma pro-
duced "a million bushels Of wheat this
year, but that lack of purity in the
seed will reduce the value OF this
crop by $3,00O,OO0 A pure hard Tur.
key red wheat grown in Oklahoma is
superior for milling purposes. Mime
sofa millers this year asked for TO-
l000O bushels of pure hard Oklaho.
ma wheat. but could not find IL, the
bulk of Oklahomas wheat being a
mixture of several varieties.
The Oklahoma crop is from a month
to six weeks earlier than the crop in
other western wheat states, and for
that reason is an important factor in
the wheat market for that period. II
to this advantage of early market
could be joined the further advantage
of pure wheat shipments, the Okla
homa wheat grower would be more

Ga degrees; September 6, Ga degrees;
September T. bS degrees, September s,
6S degrees, and September 0, 62 de-
grees. This Is an average for the FIVE
days OF 63 Is degrees, which speaks for
itself so far as st, Paul's climatic con-

tember are concerned. Only on two Of
these days has there been any rainfall
and these are what the weather man
calls traces, being something like four
hundredths of an inch for "a hours.
