A BIG SUCCESS.

OF the OCCASION are coiCCiu ou, q
pleasant memory.
The ing-day-Tuesday-w
one of the hottest of the entire
year, Wednesday was partially
cloudy with some breeze, while
Thursday was another scorcher.
The attendance for the first day
was close to 5000; that of the Sec
ond $500, and the third probably
is to 1900 These figures are
based, in the main, on gate receipts,
and show a record attendance, es
pecially for the second day.
If there was any one feature that
might be termed disappointing
it was a lack of stock exhibits,
other than horses, by the county
people, and the prediction was
made by some that the horse fea-
lures would eventually eclipse all
others. Highlands showing of
horse-hesh was good, and a horse
show is popular and enjoyable, but
the county would make a great
mistake in loosing sight Of the
original purpose in mind.
The riding and driving by our
home people was most creditable,
and complimented by visitors who
have seen classy performances, and
the county people brought out some
excellent drivers and saddlers.
Among those from a distance
who contributed to the success of tho
show by a hearty participation we
mention Messrs. Steele and Taylor,
of Augusta; Click and Haney, of
Rockingham, Whipple, of Rock
bridge, Gay, Wilmoth, Burns,
Johnston and Cunningham, of West
Virginia, etc. There were enough
of these classes to give our people
an opportunity of seeing a little
fast work-even touch of high
school and all enjoyed them.
The diversions all came in: the
Ferris wheel, merry-go-round, NOV.
ing pictures, balloopist, and two or
three small shows.
The three ascensions were all
successful so far as the uninitiated
could tell, but that Of the last day
was splendid, the big bag going al
most straight up and the landing
made only a little north of the
grounds.
The ball games played during
the Stock Show between the High
land boys and Durbin boys resulted
as follows: First game was won
by the home team 4 to 2; seconu
and third games were carried off by
the visitors, 10 to s and 10 to g.
There were no serious accidents.
Mrs. Devericks, of Eastern High
land, got hurt by kicking horse
late Thursday evening and was un-
able to 60 to her home. DR.. Siron
attended her.
The behavior was good, consider
ing the large number present.
Something like four arrests were
made.
1t would be pleasure and salts
faction to be able to give the names
of all nonresident Highlanders, at
least, but the list was so large
that the task cannot be undertaken.
The awards and honors won will
be reported as whole next week.
eve feel called upon to apologize
for this meager, hurried report of
one of the biggest events ever pulled
off in the county, but the Recorder
force, like most everybody in town,
is "worn to FRAGILE" which also
accounts for the issue being day
late.l

Eggs For Matching.

Care should be exercised in the Sc
lection Of eggs for incubating. They
should weigh about "a ounces to the
dozen. The shell should be smooth
and free from Jumps and ridges.
Generally speaking, the newer the
egg the better it is for Matching.
Eggs will often hatch when they are
three weeks old, but the chicks are
never as strong as those from fresh
eggs. Eggs intended for Matching
should be kept in a cool place at q
temperature Of about so degrees.
They should De turned daily until
ready for the incubator or broody
hen.
Over-large eggs seldom hatch, says
Farm and Home. The small egg Is
usually from pullet that has not
fully matured, and should be reject
ed. Thin-shelled eggs are unsafe to
use, since they are liable to be brok-
en-. The pointed egg and the round
egg should 20 in the egg basket. All
eggs that vary greatly from normal
shape should be rejected.

Planting The Vegetable Garden.

Tt IL not always advantageous &c
plant the garden e. early a. possible
Under certain conditions Nature has
tens the growth of late planted seeds
so that the difference in time OF their
ripening will not accord with the diff
ference in paintings. This is partic-
ularIy the case when the season is
late and rainy
Plant for a succession of the diff
ferent vegetables. "a garden In which
most OF the planting il done at about
the same time will not give a. good
results a. where a period of time
elapses between the second, third or
fourth paintings of the same vegeta-
bles. Particularly Is this true or peas
says Farm and Home. Where a
number Of different varieties were
tried the best results were obtained
from one or two varieties planted in
succession.
Tn sweet corn, however, this was
not 80 apparent. Tt was found Lest
to rely on several varieties as well az
successive paintings. If the season
was backward or the paintings made
unusually early, sweet corn seemed
to be very slow il growth. On the
other hand, the corn planted later
would grow very fast under favora-
Bile conditions and almost catch UP
with the first paintings. TO overcome
this difficulty It was, found advisable
to rely on the paintings of different
varieties.
