and the bigger the fair the greater its
valne as an educational force, says DR..
H. A. Morgan. president Of the Un-
iversity of Tennessee.
Far more Of us receive our most
lasting impressions from things seen
than any other way. "Show me" has
become more than suggestion; 1t is
basic in the education of a lot Of folks.
And the fairs show Us. Z"
To the farmer the fair affords world
Of opportunity for observation and com.
parison. Nobody who has attended com
munity or county or division fair OF the
state fair his year could fail TO have
been impressed by the exhibits made by
club boys OF the various communities
and counties rs well as those of indlv-
idual farmers. Keen competition has
resulted In a steady improvement in
quality Of corn exhibits. What i've
years ago would have been a good ex.
hlbit would hardly find place on the
tables today. And with the constant
increase in the quality of exhibits there
has come better .realiz alton of what
good corn is land the farmer tries to
grow AZ good corn as he sees at the
fair. The same is true of every crop.
of every exhibit of every :kind, and Of
every kind, of livestock,
The livestock show is great attrae
ton for the farmer. and his great in.
structor as well. Nothing but the best
gets the blue ribbon these DAYS. The
farmer and the breeder find inspiration
In the splendid animals shown at the
fairs. 1t Is far cry from the scrub
milk COW to the register of merit Jersey:
from the scrub beef bull to the spIen-
did purebred Angus, Shorthorn, or
Hereford; from the razor-b back hog to
the wonderful purebred porker. Macy
man has gone home from the various
fair this year with determination to
havebetter livestock on bis farm. And so
the fair is the measure of progressin all
that pertains to agriculture. Every
fair has It's own peculiar value. The
community fair brings together the
products aud people of neighborhood
where good natured competition helps 20
bring out the best that each farm pro.
duces. The county fairs these days are
developing a competition of commune
ties as we'll as individuals which stimu.
lates local pride and eDdeayor. In the
bigger fairs the best exhibits of the
smaller fair are seen and there is com.
petition between counties. All indicates
greater agriculture for Tennessee in the
years to cone.

that is what was enabling him to keep

him to hold bis cotton. 1t would be

He ships to Jackson and Memphis and
gets bis check each month. We thought
some weeks ago that Someryile was
in a good way to get 3 local creamery
but when friends Of the movement met
there were few enemies Of a locs
creamy there and these enimes were
better takers than some Of the friends
and so the enterprise died a-bornin' and
that was the end of it. If SomervilIe

what matters the score? Jezebel
Tecumseh Zachary followed johnson
with a mediocre performance, giving
four runs. He took "A windup, for in
stance. with Doc Johnson on third
and the Indian stole home. The hnal
count was o TO =, IL you insist.
Walter never was as fast in years"
said Iris Speaker after the game.
His fast ball was beauty, but we
can hit speed, you know, and that's
why we drove him from the box. He
was always using speed on the first
ball We took toeholds and swung
that's all. Its easy when you know
how"
1t is significant that OF the six
Indians to hit safely in that inning,
four LANDED on the first ball. The
hits went off the bats like bullets.
Jameson almost tore Shannons foot
off with his drive. Maybe Speaker is
right.
Grin In bad Way.
With Johnson in the discard, the
Griffmen arc in a bad way for twirl-
ers. They play here today and open
four-game engagement in Detroit
tomorrow, catching the Tigers much
improved. For these Ave games only
experimental pitching is to be ex-
pected. The outlook is dark.
Johnson can come back in Detroit,
of course, but he can't pitch all four
games, Erickson does not shine
against his old teammates. Zachary
seems to have lotst all his cunning.
Bill Snyder is an unknown quantity.
SO is Courtney. Clark Griffith has no
other pitchers worthy of mention.
Since leaving homo eight games
have been played. The first two were
neat victories. The last six have been
sorry defeats. for Dixie Davis in st.
Louis and Claude Williams in Chicago
alone deserved their victories over
tho bruised and battered Griffmcn.
The Griffs led for four frames
here yesterday. Judge reached first
on Johnson's error in the first inning
took another on Milan's sacrifice and
came in on Rice's clean wallop to
right.
Shannon. opened the fourth with a
drive over Chapnan's head went up
on O'Ncills sacrifice, and came in on
Johnson's hearty smite to center. All
this happened before that little red
itor from Washington saw anything
of interest down there on the ball
field.

Regular Day.

Walter Nordlinger, Western
High School baseball captain,
finished up his athletic career
in a blaze of glory yesterday.
Nordlinger recently broke the
hop, step and jump record in
the tennis matches this year.
In basketball this winter he
won his letter. Yesterday was
Nordlinger's last game for
Western. He made no errors,
handled nine chances in the
field without a miscue, stole
two bases and scored three
runs. Nordlinger got five hits
out Of six trips up, each hit
being solid. He made three
singles. a double, and triple,
six runs scoring from three
blows. Outside of that Nord-
linger didn't do much.
