Ii Its last Issue, The Pickens
Sentinel saws editorially: ":What
about that tri. county fair the
Keowee Courier mentioned last
fall9 It looks like Pickens coun-
ty will have a fair at Easley
next fall. Why not Anderson
and Oconee counties join us at
Easley this year and start the
tri-county fair? These counties
can have a fair which could not
be surpassed by any other three
counties in the solth."
The suggestion is a good one,
in part. The Daily Mail began
last winter to advocate q tri.
county fair to be held in this
city, but our chamber of COM
merce was not ssthen organized
and unfortunately fairs that had
been held here had left a bad
impression, and the people of
Anderson would not 20 into one
unless it was under responsible
management.
While the local board Of trade
was being organized the Farm
ers society Of Pendleton got busy
and organized a tri.county fair.
We of Anderson are giving aid
and encouragement to Pendle-
ton this year. The local fair at
! Pendleton last fall is said to have
bees one of the best eyer held in
the state. We call upon Oconee
and Pickens to cooperate with
PendletOn, and next year Easley
or Seneca or Westminster may
be the favored city. Anderson

We remembert the fair at Pen
dletOn last fall and that a Pick
ems county mans. NJ. Johnston
of near Liberty had the largest
farm exhibit at the fair; but we
did not know it was a perma-
nently organized tri-county fair.
However, since it was held at
PendletOn last year, it seems
only right and proper thu t one
of the other counties should have
it this year, and as Easley is al
ready making arrangements to
have a fair we respectfully sug-
gest that the two fairs be merg-
ed and a greater tri-county fair
be held this wear at Easley.
When it came Pendleton's turn
to have the fair again it would
be still better.

Getting Ready at EasIey

The directors of the Pickens
County Agricultural and Nee
hanical Association held a meet
ing in the office of the Easley
Loan and Trust Co., on Thurs
day afternoon llast. The com
mittee appointed at a previous
meeting to arrange for an Agri-
cultural Fair to be held in Eas-
lev next fall, made a very en-
couraging report. Something
like $4,000 in cash, besides
other valuable prizes have al
ready been subscribed. This
committee is composed of the
following well known citizens
who are interchangeable workers:
1. B. Higgins. W. A. Hamilton,
W. d. Spearman and j. Milton
King. 1t goes without saying
that they will let no obstacle
deter them from making all
necessary arrangements for the
success of the fair. A commit
tee consisting of f.. p. McCrav-
ey, L. II. Barton and w. l..
Pickens, was also appointed to
arrange the program and fix
the date, which will probably
be sometime in the month of
October. Liberal premium
will be offered on products of
the farm, live stock, etc, and
every one should begin now to
prepare to enter the contests
and make it interesting for the
other fellow.-PrOgress.

Will Build M0nu-
e to Col. Bowen

The old soldiers and their
friends haye asked for the privi-
lege of erecting a suitable monu-
ment over the grave Of one of
South Cardinals noblest sons,
and one the bravest men that
ever faced an enemy on the
field of battle. That soldier was
Col. Robert e. Bowen, whose
body lies in the grave yard at
Picken s Chapel. only a few
miles across the Anderson coun-
ty line. Our plans are to call
for voluntary subscriptions and
appoint a committee to solicit
and receive any amount which
friends may desire to contribute.
A list of which will be kept and
published in this and other
papers.
Col. Bowen was a life trustee
of Clemson College, so named
in the will of Mr.. Clemson. We
feel quite sure that many of the
trustees, teachers, students and
former students of the college
will be glad to contribute to the
monument.
The war record of Col. Bowen
was one of which all South
Carolinians ought to feel proud.
He went out with Company E.,

was elected major, Bowen be-
came captain. After the battle
of Lookout Mountain, Bowen
was promoted to colonel over

Most of his fighting was done
in Virginia. He was in the
Seven Days fight around Rich
mond, Second Manassas.
Sharpsburg, Cold Harbor and
many others.
After the war he represented
Pickens county in the house
and senate for many years. It
was he who introduced the bill
to investigate the stealing of
the radicals when they had

Third. The citizenship of the

Fourth. Our geographical
situation and climatic conditions
are the most favored in the
world. Here we can raise two
crops on the same land the
same year. and still retain the
fertility of the soil, by proper
farming. Our soil while not
the richest in the world, has five
times the productive or germi-
mating power of other sections
or the world. We have raised
1875 bushels of corn per acre, two
bales of cotton and other crops
in like proportion.
Fifth. Men in public life are
men of honor and always work
for the best interest of the coun-
tY.
By a united effort among our
people we can make this county
the most happy and prosperous
spot on the globe.
