AN AGRICULTURAL FAIR FOR
GARRARD COUNTY.

Garrard County should have an Ag-
ricultural Fair. Nearly all the coun-
ties surrounding Garrard have had one,
so why not Garrard?
Madison held her third one this year,
and IL was certainly credit to the
county. No one could look over the
display CT farm products and think that
Madison had not done her part in help
ing TO feed the world. Berea holds her
fifth one this week and Laurel County
held one at which 5000 people were
present.
1t Is generally conceded that Garrard
County is one of the best counties in
the state and her farm products are
widely and justly celebrated. Now.
why not get together. offer a few pre-
miums and get some of these products
on display. The third hnor Of the Rex
Garage is an excellent place to hold the
show and Kinnaird Bros, have ,signified
their Willingness TO donate the building.
The show could consist Of displays of
corn, tobacco. wheat. barley, oats,
hemp seed, poultry etc. Moderate
premiums should be offered. about 81,
for first, the idea being not to stress
the idea OF premiums but 10 arouse a
little friendly competition among the
farmers. Then il it were thought ad.
visable all the products with the ex-
ception OF poultry could be given to
the Red Cross and auctioned Off tn
doubtedly the show could be made a
success and should be held.

HANDSOME GARAGE
And Service Station" Opened By Has.
eden Brothers.

When the Garage and Service Sta
ton" recently built on Lexington St.,
opened its doors to the travelling pub
lie last Saturday morning, one Of the
most complete and up to-date Service
Stations in Central Kentucky was COM
pleted.
The building which is 200 feet long
by 40 feet wide is modern in every
thing that the word implies. Being
built entirely of concrete and iron. it
absolutely fireproof, perfectly lighted,
well ventilated and heated and is a
credit to this progressive firm.
Every inch of it was built with an
idea of convenience and no money was
spared in making it complete in every
detail. The spacious show room in
front, will accommodate several machines,
the Ford being their leader, having sold
about 70 during the past year and have
contracted for 100 more fo' the coming
season. Their stock room where re-
pairs are kept for this popular machine,
- perfectly arranged and several thous-
and pieces are kept in stock at all
times. The upper story Will accomo-
late several car loads of machines and
three rooms are on this floor to accom-
modate the mechanics who will remain
On duty both day and night.
The waiting room for ladies is beau
tifully furnished and every convenience
looked after for their comfort. Rates
for storing automobiles are fixed at So
a month, 50 cents for night and %
cents for day if left over two hours.
Repair work of every character will
be looked after by corps of mechani-
clans that understand their business.
with motto for quick service. In
stalled in this station is electrical con-
nections used in charging batteries,
work of this character having hereto
fore been sent to Louisville or Lexing-
ton.
Mr.. Il. ii. Batson has charge of the
business management of the entire
station and we think that no better
selection could haye been made. Has
eden Brothers are to be commended for
their enterprise and the patronage they
should receive from the public deserv-
es to bring them good returns on their
heavy investment.
