Poultry and Concessions
An effort will be made to make an
extra large and choice showing OF
poultry and competent judge Of poul-
try will be brought to Hagerstown for
the occasion. The committee on poul-
try exhibits and awards are: ]. A.
Bunnell, owner of 1900 S. c. White
Leghorns, who lives east of the town.
Mr.. BunneIl says he has had very
great demand for eggs for Matching
this season and that there seems to
be more people interested in chickens
this year than ever before. E. c..
Test and Albert Gordon are the other
two members of the poultry section
committee.
AS a number of concessions" will
be sold and that these may be of the
best ard most attractive kind a COM
nittee of four will provide and super
wise this department of the big show.
The gentlemen having this important
department in charge are: P. J. Stan
III
and B. E. Parsons. These promise
first class carnival attractions and to
i.ut up a clean show which will fitting
~ sandwich in with the showing of
livestock and the various contests for
premiums and ribbons.
Women's Department.
Hagerstown has a Ladies' Garden
Club, a Domestic Science Club and
also a Priscilla Club, and each of
these are preparing to become active
in the work that may fittingly be done
by their members to make the Horse
Show and Free Fair success. Much
credit is due the Garden Club for the
beauty of the lawns and the large
number of well kept gardens for which
the town is noted. They feel that
peace garden this year is just as i'm
portant as was the war garden dur
ing the last two years and all forms
of gardening is being encouraged. The
exhibits in the Women's department
will be supervised and judged by the
ladies of these clubs and it Is hoped
that some interesting displays will be
made, and for which some attractive
premiums are to be provided. Special
prizes are offered for needlework by
the Priscilla Club, while the same Is
true as to canned fruits, etc. by the
ladies of the Household Economic
Club. There will be special commit
tee on plants and flowers, selected
from the membership of the Garden
Club. While this is in the main to
be an outdoor show, rooms will be
provided, or in some cases it may be
tents, for the proper care and display
of exhibits, such as those named and
also for the poultry show.
Live Stock to be Sold.
The show will close on Saturday.
August 80, with an auction sale OF
live stock. mostly registered full
bloods, and entirely so as relating to
the sale of calf and pig exhibits. This
one feature in itself would assure
large attendance and active bidding
by the farm element. 1t is expected
that airplane flights will be made
daily for these have not lost attrac-
tiveness or novelty by any means.
The premiums offered in the horse
ring are exceptionally attractive and
provide for registered draft horses,
grade draft horses, a light harness
show, registered stations and mares,
also for riding and driving contests
by both women and men. The prem
ium list offers to cattle and hog exhib-
itors are also tempting.
Two Leading Industries
Hagerstown has two leading manu-
featuring industries of which it is
justly proud. These are the Teetor-
Hartley Motor Corporation and the
Indiana Piston Ring company. Both
of these concerns are working full
forces and have demand which taxes
their capacities to the limit The
Teetor-Hartley concern supplies the
motors for the Mcfarland motor car,
made at Connersyille, and for the
