The Pulaskian., 1921-11-03

man Winesap apples, canned field and whoppoorwill peas, beeswax, very large turnips, cotton, hay, sor- ghum, pumpkins, beans, green toma- toes, a big display of corn, pie mel ons, soy beans and velvet beans, rad ishes, flowers, upland rice, reyiving in my memory the fact that rice can be grown any place on the uplands where corn will grow by planting it in drills and cultivating the same as corn. My grandfather grew it in Tennessee on the Obidge river before the Civil War. And l only saw one little gourd in the display. There were plenty of quilts and crochet work, home made rugs, crocheted counterpanes and lots of useful arti- cIes made of domestic and empty sacks, tatting and embroidery, doilies and table covers. girls dresses, boys shirts, etc.
 On the Stage.
 On the stage was arranged the fin est collection of potted flowers be- longing to the ladies of Jacksonville l have ever seen in an exhibit of privately owned flowers.
 Next came a set of homemade har- ness made by Bob Corder of Jack sonville, and swing made by Miss Doris Taylor.
 Ebenezer.
 On the east wall was one of the most artistically arranged exhibits at the fair. This was from Ebenezer. There was much ladies' fancy work, a quilt made of tobacco sacks, ap- ples, geraniums which took first prize, other flowers and ferns. Mrs. U. j. Wilson took nine blue ribbons on her fruit-more than any other person in this exhibit. Mesdames Wicker and West each had canned corn, which took blue ribbons. There was a fine exhibit of Irish potatoes, beans, peas, nuts, etc. Black and gold were the colors they used in decorating their booth in a Halloween effect, with pumpkin lanterns, etc. There were nuts and farm and garden products of all kinds. Mrs. Wilson took blue ribbon on cakes and pies. Ornamental pepper displayed was very pretty.
 JackSonUille.
 Of course the Jacksonville display equalled any there in general appear anee, but the gentleman showing me around did not guide me through that display and I never noticed the fact until 1 had finished writing my report and began to search for my Jacksonville notes to give them an especially good write-up.
 It was, of course, an oversight on the part of both of us and Jet us be thankful that we did not leave out one of the more prominent outside communities, for Jacksonville can stand the loss of writeup better than she could stand the enmity of one of her neighboring communities for being sighted.
 The Fairs Haue Ended.
 This Is the last of the community faris for the county for the year 1921. While 1 may not have done any of the fairs justice in my writeups, I have done the best 1 could. In order to avoid repetition l have made the most extensive writeup of the last one. The Pulaskian is the only Lit tie Rock paper to give the fairs much publicity. The other papers are either state or city papers and have merely confined their attention to their own chosen fields. The county is the Pulaskian's chosen field and we chose 1t because 1t was vacant. If these writeups have not been all you desired, please remember they wer given without price or cost and of all gifts to the fairs none were so expensive to the donors as these writeups have been to us. Thanking
