FARMERS FLOCK TO
BIG TRACTOR TEST
Hardy County's Farmers
Picnic Was Big Success
in Every Way.

MoRGANTowN, W. Va, Sept. g.
Three thousand farmers, their wives
and families, gathered at Caledonia
Park, near Moorefield, Harty county,
Saturday. for what proved to be the
greatest tractor demonstration ever
given in this state. The demonstre-
ton was given under the auspices OF
the Farm Bureau OF Hardy county and
the county agent, H. R. Cokeley.
Eight tractors there gave con-
vincing demonstration OF the supe-
riority of motor driven machinery over
horse power under certain conditions,
and he value of modern farm machin-
cry.
This was the annual Hardy county
farmers picnic which in every detail
was the most successful ever held ia
the county. There was a fine exhibit
OF pure bred Angus cattle, and Duroc,
Hampshire, and Berkshire hogs. One
of the Berkshire hogs exhibited was
from the herd Of breeder, who re-
Gently paid $500 at public sale in
Ohio for herd boar.
The meeting was presided over by
George T. Leatherman, the presiden.
OF the Hardy county Farm Bureau Ex-
ceIlent addresses were given by W. D.
linn, OF Philippi, Miss Marion Hep
worth, assistant state agricultural ex-
tension director, and Nat T. Frame,
state agricultural extension director.
A great picnic dinner was served Oh
the ground.
There were exhibits OF manure
spreaders, ensilage cutters and other
pieces of modern farm machinery.
However, the big event of the day was
the tractor demonstration, each trac-
tor blowing an acre. County Agent H.
W. Prettyman, of Mineral county, was
field manager, and under his direc-
tons wonderful demonstration OF
fast but thorough blowing was done by
the tor-drtven machines. Hundred
of interested farmers followed the ma /.
chimes about as they slipped easily
along, turning up broad burrows behind
them. Three bottom gang plows were
drawn by International, Case, Emer-
SON. Brantinghams, Moline and Happy
Farmer tractors. Two bottom plows
were drawn by Fordson, Case and
an International tractor.
The result Of the demonstration was
to show convlncingly how perfectly
tractors are adapted to different condi-
tons for which they have been de-
signed.

wonder how many women like
the longer dresses and skirts which
fashion has decreed we shall wear this
winter. There is surely something
very womanll about them, something
which appeals to many. The short
skirts, however, are so very comfort
able and so decidedly trim and neat
that 1t will be hard to give them en-
tirely up.
Serge dresses are already being
shown in stores and on the street,
even In spite of the hot weather. Dur
mig my travels this summer l saw no
dress as popular as the serge. On
the trains and on the street, these one
piece gowns with bit Of lace collar
or gay silk one were all the rage.

A Wee Contribution on Books.

What are we thinking about the
books we are reading these days? Or
do we read books any more with SO
much flesh and blood living and so
much of serious concern to exert our
real brains about? Books used to con-
Germ us a lot but since the war we
have been under a continual strain,
worrying with this, bothering about
that until it is no longer the delight
full, instructive pastime 1t used to be
to lose oneself in the byways of fic-
ton. The most popular books just
now are probably Harold Bell Wright's
1.-THE Recreation OF Brian Kent" and
Reginald Kaufman's Victorious"
These two will be the subject of much
discussion among fiction lovers. Reg
inald Kaufman is liked more for his
tense, realistic, q spade-is-a-spade
style. His new book concerns the war
or rather the war concerns his book.
Are war stories liked? That's ques-
ton just now. For awhile publishers
all over the country were swamped
with war fiction. Many of them
thought it the proper thing to buy and
as consequence have much more on
their hands at present ban they know
what to do with. There are so many
of our boys in every town and city
who know more about war stories than
any writer could possibly hope to know
who have imbibed the environment
of war to such an extent that fiction
on the subject becomes dull and life
less. Perhaps that's why so many OF
the new war stories are being written
by returned soldiers. The real life
over there" taught the hitherto idle
game of writing to the lad who saw
it all and can't forget. He simply sat
down one day and lived 1t over for
others to read. So that some real live
fiction was born Of the desire to put
in black and white those tragic exper-
fences, those tense pictures. That's
why books don't grip as they used to
do when we lived mostly in the mag
nation. We're much wider awake
than we used to be--by far. And we
have crawled out of our negotiations
into the open.
Harold Bell Wright is being critics.
