Messer Family
Well Represented
At County Fair

The Allie Messer dairy farming
family of Pond View Farm, Gath
ersburg, has almost as many
members of the family at the
Fair as Holstein cattle.
Father and mother Messer were
aided by: daughters Jean, Susan,
Patsy and Bobbie; son John;
niece Alice Schwebach; nephew
Jim Federline.
Patsy, 10, and Bobbie, II, oc-
cupy the unique position of hav-
ing been members of two United
States champion dairy judging
teams that won world titles for
the U. S. and Maryland in 1857
and 1858.
The whole Messer family has
been prominent in All Club work
for many years.
Seventeen-year-old Alice Schwe-
bach, of New York City, has shed
most of her big-city habits as a
result of her visit to her Gath
ersburg cousins. Less sure with
cattle than the MesSers, she
nevertheless pitched in and
helped with their 81 head of cat
tie at the Fair.
While not cleaning stalls or
washing the cattle, the whole
tribe of young people lolled
around on hay bales, listening
to swing music over a portable
radio.

Fairs kitchen. These church
ladies, under the direction of
Mrs. Thomas E. Bailey, have
showed UP every day of the Fair
at $50 AM. to prepare delicious
dinners and suppers. They also
serve breakfast to scores of

animal handlers who stay all

Meals - $1.50 - include ham,
chicken or roast beef with crab

mashed potatoes or potato salad,
sliced tomatoes, slaw, beverages

Machinery of all kinds dots the
Fairgrounds. You can order
anything from an electric furnace
unit to a hay baler. Or, if you
are in the cattle business, you
should attend the Holstein cattle
auction at 7 PM. Saturday. Many
fine animals will be sold to the
highest bidder.
And, of course, the fairway
dividing the Fairgrounds in two
offers amusements of all kinds
for people of all ages. Two Fer

as an assortment of rides that
bump, thump and whirl will
please the young at heart.
People with slower blood can
browse through endless displays
of farm produce, both fresh and

Most of these displays are the

Where There's
Smoke There
Must Be Fire


Residents of the lower County
were intrigued Tuesday evening
by the sight of huge column
of smoke which rose several hun
dred feet in the air from the
Kensington area and was visible
from as far away as downtown
Washington.
Cause of the smoke was the
deliberate burning of an aban-
doned house by the Kensington
Fire Department. The house
stood behind Rock Greek Pail
sades School and was unfit for
human habitation.

Benson Halls
Surplus Sefup

TORONTO, ontario, Sept. 3
(AP).--Secretary of Agriculture
Benson said today differences
between the United States and
Canada over disposal Of farm
SURPRISES have been narrowed
greatly during the past year.
He said the two major farm
exporting countries are now
largely in agreement on ways
OF using some Of their SURPRISES
to aid needy in other parts Of
the world.
A year ago, many Canadian
farm and government officials
we're sharply criticizing Amer
ion nroqrams under which sur
pluses were bartered for stra-
L~e4S inaCerlaIs or sold to
friendly countries for their own
currencies. The Canadian
critics contended these pro-
grams intefered with regular
commercial sales.
In a talk prepared for the
Canadian National Exhibition,
Mr.. Benson commended that pro-
grams to move SURPRISES into
use were necessary. He said
Canada itself had come up with
measures similar to those Of
the United States.
1--WE are optimistic" he said,
shat as nations make con-
tInued economic progress. they
will become better commercial
customers. We believe that you
and we will be able to move
more and more of our export
products through commercial
sales, with less and less de-
pendence on today's useful but
temporary programs"
