look sadly ~dilapidated. He believes,
however, that the south is soon to
see better times.

week for the prize won by his White

the ribbon wo1. Some fine corn was
shown at this, the seventh annual,

If the hail will give him an equal
show this year, he will make the corn
growers from any part of the state
hustle to beat his prize ears. Mr..
Suits is the winner of the Stark
