POULTRY VSCOTTON.

Augusta, Ga. Oct. lo.-An ever
interesting topic to everybody is
poultry. Whether man lives in |: a
city and has bfownston. ront. or
whether he lives in cabin he is in
terested in poultry.
1t is estimated that the poultry
crop of the United States is worth
more each year than the combined
wheat, corn and cotton crops. This
sounds like an exaggeration and il
may >, but the fact cannot bs dis.
counted that the chicken is one Of
the most vital factorf in AmSican
lite today. What would become Of
us without soft billed eggs or b~oiled
chicken when we are i'll and what
more delectable dishes when one IS
well than the soft scrambled digs or
the chicken pie prepared in the old
fashioned way.
All Of this talk about Tie chictes

GEORG IA-CA RO-
LIMA FAIR
OPENS NOVEMBER THE SEW
ENTH AND CONTINUES
THROUGHOUT THE
WEEK

Augusta, Ca The organ
ization of the Georgia Carolina Fair
was the result of the untiring efforts
of influential citizens OF this city and
vicinity to have an annual fall show
to exploit the resources of the won
derful Savannah River Valley. Mr..
James u. Jackson has been pres
ident of the association ever since
its organization and to his untiring
efforts much of the success that has
been attained is due. The first
thing to think of when it was deci-
ded to have an annual fair was To-
cation. The association decided
upon tract of land about two miles
from the heart of the city and on
the north side of the Lake View car
line, just to the east Of the lake IT,
self. Work was begun shortly af-
ter the purchase was made and a
magnificent main fair building was
erected. A race track was built
which is said to be one of the fast
est half mile race courses in the
country and grand stand with a
seating capacity of 1900 was next
put up. A large number of stables
for live stock were built and high
plank fence constructed around the
grounds. Three years ago when
the Augusta Poultry Club decided
to have its annual show al the fair a
commodious two ST building was
erected. The buildings and groudds
owned by the Georgia Carolina
Fair Association are estimated to
be worth in the neighborhood of
$4,000, which is a large sum fcr
an organization of its kind to have
as assets. 1t can be seen from this
statement of the wealth of the asso-
citation and its backing by the tig
business men of the community that
there is some reason for this city to
feel proud of her annual fair and
can afford to boast quite bit re-
garding the superior attractions that
will be seen here al the coming
fair which opens on Nov. 7th.
The view from the fair grounds is
magnificent. On the Carolina side
of the Savannah River the Hampton
Terrace Hotel on the crest of great
hill, nearly 300 feet above the city
proper, stands as a wonderful exam
pie Of the modern tourist hosiery.
1t was erected by northern capital
i,ts It cost Of nearly three quart
crs of a million dollars and is fill ed
with guests each winter.
On the west side and the south
side Of the fair grounds is Lake
View park and Summerville. the
most famous winter resort in this
section OF th9 country. The placid
waters CT Lake View are within {
few hundred fset of the main fai,
building and on delightful autumn
afternoons boating is favorite Spor
Taking everything into consider
alton it may be said with utmos
candor and without fear of contra
diction that Augusta has the bes
fall fair in this part of the country
and with grounds superbly located

vigorous Attempt Being Made
10 Cripple important |ndustr,

Mr.. Finnegan. representing thu
hiock Produce Company. of Seattle.
spent several days on the island last
week n an effort to induce the farm.
ers TO ship their cream to Seattle in
stead OF bringing it to the local
creamery, and according to the best
information we are able to obtain be
was 10 measure successful. At the
time OF his visit here the local cream
cry was paying 80 cents per pound
for butter fat and allowing in addi
ton to this, 10 perc ent for overrun.
Ii Is reported on good authority that
he offered as an inducement to come
OF the shippers 35 cents and to others
36 .ents,a fiat rate. allowing nothing
Tor overrun. This looked good to
some of them and he eecured their
promise to ship.
Tits very evident that this has been
done IN an effort to put our local
creamery out of business, and this
is just what it will do il the farmers
ship their cream to Seattle. As soon
as the plant here has closed and the
Seattle concerns have accomplished
their purpose it is not at all hard to
guess where the shlppers will land.
The local creamery's prices fer but
ter tat are governed wholly by the Sc
attie Produce Association. which fixes
the price to be paid. and all the
creameries of the state are advised as
to the market changes. Is it at all
reasonable tc suppose that q Seattle
concern can pay three and in some in
stances four cents per pound above
the market price and keep it up? It
may be good bait to use to get them
to bite but will the bait hold out?
This or any other creamery cannot
operate without cream and in order
that the local plant may bs operated
at profit it must have all that is
ns.aluced. or naarlx 80 at least. Dur
ing the winter months the plant was
operated at loss and now that there
is an opportunity to make little
money the Seattle concern steps in
and induces the farmers, or some Of
them. to withdraw their patronage

from the home institution and shin
to Seattle. The creamery here has
spent thousands of dollars among the
farmers. who have never had to wait
for their money. The creamery's
checks have always been issued twice
month and in addition to this the
farmers have been supplied with grain
for feeding at from $3.50 to $500
per ton cheaper than it could be OBJ
tanned elsewhere. How much has the
Seattle concern done to build up the
town. and how much will it do, no
matter how much cream is shipped
there? The inducement offered ia
simply put out as bait to divert the
business away from here and it is net
reasonable to suppose that the KIook
Produce Company or any other com
pany will give from three to four
cents per pound above the market
price for cutter fat and keep it up.
The Islander has used it's best en-
deavors for years to build up and fos-
ter home, industries, concerns that
spend their money here and have the
interests Of the community at heart.
For years before there was creamery
in the county tho Islander earnestly
advocated the establishment of
plant here and was strong factor in
getting the local plant started. 1t
pointed out the special advantages
offered for the successful carrying on
of the dairy industry in the county
and we are not presum;ng too much
when we say that it has done much
toward improving conditions. The
farmers we're never better off than
now and the dairy herds are in q
great measure responsible for this i'm
proved condition.
Without presuning in any way to
dictate the business policies of the
farmers we earnestly hope and trust
they will SEQ soon that it is 10 their
advantage to favor q home institution
in preference to a Seattle concern
that belongs to combination that
has made it's boast that it will use
it's utmost endeavors to put the coun-
try oreameries out of business.

Billy" Sunday
To Be Here Monday

As announced in the islander last
week, "Billy - Sunday, the noted
evangelist. now conducting a series
of meetings in BellinRham. is to speak
here next Monday. his address to have
special reference to the local option
election to be held the following day.
The Bellingham people associated with
him in his work there are desirous
that he and his party should take q
trip among the islands of this county
and such trip was planned before
any invitation was extended to him to
speak here. Ordinarily. because of his
great need of rest after his strenuous
Sunday services. he does not speak
on Monday. but when asked to make
an address here be readily and cheer
fully consented, stipulatinR only that
he should speak in the afternoon and
not more than an hour and half and
not in the open air. Accordingly
the meeting will be held in Odd Eel
lows hall at or about / P NJ While
there will be no admission fee charged
or unreasonable restrictions placed
upon attendance. the committee
having the meeting in charge is nat l.
urally desirous of first providing seats
for the registered voters of the town
who may be desirous of hearing Mr..
Sundays views on the question
upon which they will be called upon
to vote the following day. Seats
will be reserved for reasonable time
for all such voters who Care to use
them. and if they are married men
seats will be reserved for their wives.
if they signify desire to attend.
The Islander understands that there
will be about sixty persons in Mr..
Sundays party. including large
choir. A midday lunch will be
served to them by the ladies of the
town in the Grange hall.
It is expected that in the even
ing Mayor John A. Gellatly. Of We
Hatchee, will speak not only upon
the moral aspects of the question but
upon the effect which the abolition
of saloons has upon business. In a
message to the people of Edmonds,
just before that town voted 'tdry''
in February. Mayor Gellatly said
amcnR other things:
"Wenatchee. with her fifty five
hundred people has made an excep-
tionally satisfactory test of the ''dry"
town policy. and all our reliable cit
izens, whether "wet' or "dry'' be-
fore election, agree that the removal
of the saloons has caused no loss to
the city either socially. morally, in
tellectually or financially. On the
other hand, business is better than
ever before.
"The moral tone is elevated one
hundred per cent. Your wife, sister
or daughter can now walk down the
streets of Wenatchee without being
in danger from insult. Intentionally
or otherwise. by some pour victim Of
liquor, who lodges himself with scores
of his kind in front of the respectable
saloon doors.
s'Since the city went ''dry" but
one man has been found drunk from
liquor sold within the city; a few
more have been picked up at the de
pot as they came from outside towns.
ssThe old gag that local option does
not prohibit has been proven an en-
PITY myth. There are not ten quarts
drank now where there were barrels
before.

community and make it worse to gov
ern by HE having lived therein =
