Four Car Load Of Mares for Sale.

I Four car loads Of mares will be sold II
| Columbia during the Fair, at the instance
of C. M. Morgan, Of the Agricultural De
partment, now doing demonstration work
in this State. Mr.. Morgan is in no wise
interested in the sale of these mares, eX'
cept as an expert to introduce higher
classed horses into our farmers and to in
crease stock raising.
There are ten million dollars sent out OF
South Carolina annually for horses and ten
million more sent for meats, when this
State could practically supply itself in
both Of these products.
While it would be especially gratifying
for every progressive farmer in the county
to have one or more good brood mares and
high grade hogs, this probably will not be
realized for some years. Mr.. Morgan sug-
gests that the County Supervisors OF the
State buy one or more of these or other
high grade mares and that they also buy
a stallion for public service. This would
undoubtedly do much for building up and
improving the stock industry of the State,
and could be done at q profit. Even II the
county sustained some little direct loss,
the advantages accruing to the individual
citizen would so far outweigh this loss in
the general receiving, that it should not
be considered.
The suggestion is a good mi and we
trust that our own Supervisor will give it
imme date consideration.

Election for School Trustees.

Provision should be made by which
school trustees could be elected at general
elections. This would lift a great burden
off Of the County Superintendent shout
ders and at the same time 1t would insure
competent men for the important office.
In several towns in Abbeville County,
including Abbeville City, the trustees are
elected by the people, and it only remains
to change the respective times Of elections
to correspond to that Of the general cleo
ton.
Throughout the County the trustees are
appointed by the County Board Of Educa-
ton. After all the Board must appoint
on the recommendations Of others in GER
tain localities, for in many instances the
Board is not, sufficiently well acquainted
with the people to know just who will
make the best officers. If the matter Is
left to the people themselves they are very
likely to put the right man in the right
place. Again, 1t is frequently the case
that a good man refuses to act when
appointed by the County Board; whereas
If he were elected by men and neighbors
in his own school district he would hardly
refuse. The obligation would on this
account assume larger proportions and
his duty in the premises much clearer
than when appointed by a Board.
The time for electing trustees for the
Abbeville City Schools falls on Christmas
week. This is not an opportune time to
attend to this important matter. II the
election we're held at the time the other
elections are held a fuller vote and a wider
interest would be the result. AS a matter
of fact very little interest has ever been
taken in these school elections owing to
the inopportune time at which they have
been held:
Let the Abbeville delegation look into
this matter and take some action in re-
gard to 1t at the coming session Of the
Legislature.

The AbbeyilIe Fair.

The, Abbeville Fair which was adver-
tised for the 10, 10, and 20, was continued
thru the tw~enty-frst on account OF the
bad weather Of the first part Of the week.
The Fair was q success. Every ofhcer
OF the organization feels encouraged and
they are now beginning to talk OF a falr
for 1911. And now Is the time to begin
too!
The races were entertaining, the track
in splendid order, and the grand stand
full to o%verHowing. There Is something
about a horse race that is extremely ex-
citing. It must be the sam element In
a horse race as that in a dog fight that
excites curiosity. And DR.. John Brown
SAYS that the reason a dog fight Is ex-
citing Is that 1t is an example OF intense
energy In action and that Is the case In a
horse race.
The animals did their part to divert and
entertain the Fair-goers. Out OF all the
races run not a single accident occurred.
One would not have thought that there
we're so many kinds of chickens in the
county. The chicken exhibit shows that
beyond a doubt more attention is being
paid to fine chickens than at any time in
the history Of the County.
The exhibits were good. The good
women, in order to take the prize for
best pantry outfit, had exhibits that
would churn the pepsin In a dyspepsia,
such arrays Of good things to eat cannot
be found anywhere outside the pantries Of
our good women.
The lists Of exhibits was a long one and
there were few blanks.
In calculating the good accomplished
to a community by holding such a Fair
many things are to be taken into con-
s%ideration. Among these are: The incen-
tive we get to equal or surpass the accom-
plishments Of our n~eighbor; the proof OF
what can be done by diligent application;
the wholesome relaxation which 1t offers
those who attend; the human touch; the
advertisement to the city and community.
