My Dear Mr.. Baker:

My Dear Mr.. Baker:
| am very glad to know tha
you are going to have an agri
cultural day in your county thii
fall for | believe that the same
effort spent can do no more gooC
in any other way.
Last year was Robertson coun.
ty's first attempt at setting aside
a day for the farmers of the
county to get together and show
the products of their farm.
This day was October the 18th.
and seldom such a crowd has
been seen in Springfield. Far
mers from all parts of the coun-
ty came and nearly all of them
brought some exhibit. The
farm woman was here too and
she also had some exhibit for
the table. The exhibits came in
so thick and fast that soon all
the table room was taken and
more table space had to be made.
In the ladies department alone
there were over 1000 exhibits
and these articles would have
done credit to any fair. The
pens built for hogs would not
accommodate the entries. so a
number of them were shown in
the boxes that they were brought
in.
The prizes were small but they
were given on a great many ar
ticles. All prizes were donated
by business men of the county,
and before the day was over
there was such a good spirit of
interest among the business men
that a number of them were
very anxious to have a longer
period for the rair another year.
This day is still in the minds
of the people of Robertson coun-
and the farmers are making
greater preparations for exhib-
its this fall, and the business
men are anxious to make it a
greater success by offering more
and better premiums for the ex-
hibits entered.
Hoping that you have a sue
cessful day this fall and that your
work continues to be so success
full, am
Very truly yours,
Frank S. Chonce.

AGRICULTURE DAY FOR
JACKSON COUNTY.
Big Day Being Planed For
Benefit of Formers.

eff being at the agricultural day
at Sparta in White county, and
it was a day long to be remem-
bered. There were several thous-
and exhibits of all Kinds of agri-
cultural products, from the pie
in the pantry to the draft horse.
| never saw the like.
There were exhibits that | had
no idea were grown in White
county. And the crowd why,
it was surprising. Old and young
men, women and children were
present, some several thousand.
All learning something, and all
having a big time.
said to myself, what a great
day this is for the people of
White county. A day when they
all come together at the seat of
their county government, where
they can exchange ideas on diff
ferent topics of interest, where
they can see some of the best of
everything that is grown in the
county, where they can meet
one another in fair competition,
where they can see what the
other fellow is doing and learn
how he is doing it. A day of in
terest for the farmer and the
business man alike.
also said to myself, what a
fine thing it would be to work up
something similar to this for
Jackson county for 1917. We
are about to realize that day,
which will be October 18th.
Someone said to me the other
day, why you can't work up
anything like that here in Jack
son county, the people are too
backward. +" looked at him for
a few minutes before | could full
ly make up my mind that he was
not another RIP Van Winkle, "
who had been asleep for awhile
and was behind the times of the
rest of Jackson county. You
know some people do stay asleep
all Of their life, and in their
sleep they are always saying
you can't do it. Z" Not with
their help, but thanks for the
man, who is awake, who is not
dead, who is willing when he
sees a good thing to encourage
it, to help, and not knock.
We are going to make this one
Of the biggest days that Jackson
county has ever known. 1t will
be free and open to all. There
will be no charges for entries of
exhibits, no charges to see the
exhibits. We want all to profit
by it. We want all to bring
something to show, housewife
and farmer. Talk this up. 1t is
your fair. Let's make other
counties look to Jackson for
pointers.
A complete premium list will
be published later. This will in
clude prizes on most all farm
products, including live stock
and womans work. Let's all get
back of this day, show some
thing and encourage the other
fellow to do the same. Prizes
will range from 81 to s.. There
will be $50 entries or more.
Talk this and boost it. Garden
products, field crops of all kinds,
live stock, woman's work of all
kinds will be on exhibit. We
are going to need your help to
make this day a success.

County Agent

They are coming home, and

Failures?- Nay. not one of them!
Through the long summer days
of heat they have toiled, regard
less of the sun and the storms
and the rain, wet to the skin
with rain or with the perspira-
tion of trench digging and long
marching, still with a smile on
their faces and hope in their
hearts, nor have they fallen by
the wayside in defeat, not one
of them. Upheld by the pride
and courage inherited from brave
patriotic ancestors, they have
borne the hardships in the heat
of the day, and the studies in
the hours of the night, training
both mind and body for the
strenuous duties of warfare, in or
der to protect our homes and our
country, gnd encouraged by the
hope of the reward awaiting
them at the goal-the commits
sion of officership, at the end of
three months hard service, and
they have been rewarned by
commissions, every one of them,
and Putnam county should be
very proud of the fact that one
major, one captain, and nine
second lieutenants can she boast
of from one summers training,
and if there is Stacker in man
or woman in the county may
