112,500 TO BE GIVEN IN PRIZES 'AT 1 91 9 HAGERSTOWN STOCK SHOW

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN If too happen to live to Hagerstown you know a whole lot about it You have, most likely, already absorbed and radiated a little of the spirit of the coming event, an event which promises to do much to advertise an old, well-known and prosperous community. But owing to certain natural limitations all cannot live in one particular town, not even In Wayne county. Come to think of it, that is a mighty good limitation ia its way. We an need a place to go visiting and along during the final week ia August, all roads will lead , to Hagerstown and everybody who is able to get there is invited to make the Journey And It Is expected that thousands will make the trip. That explains why such an attractive program is being prepared and why $2,5O0f Is to be given ia premiums. Surely It Is an ambitious undertaking but Hagerstown la an ambitious little city; a town where, as a merchant confidentially Informed us, everyone is making money. This has been the rule so long that folks have acquired the habit They eeemingly also know how to spend money, for it would be hard to find a town of its size anywhere which makes a better showing of comfortable homes, with shaded, well-kept lawns, flowers and gardens. True there are no aky scrapers in Hagerstown. for business is done on the main floors, ljo why climb skyward? Besides there is plenty of room to spread out Borne of these days the Main street buildings which have endured long enough to have made two or three generations rich, will give place to more ornate and substantial structures, for that way progress lies. Four Most Enjoyable Days As previously indicated this story . is being written for the information of those whom fate compels to live outside of the Hagerstown environment, or worse luck, mayhap even outside of Wayne county. Let us begin by stating that they-are planning for great things in Hagerstown and that the whole town and a host of the farmers are enthusiastic over the outlook. Everybody you meet is interested and about one hundred of the most enterprising boosters have already gone into action. What ia it all about do you ask? "Well, we wouldn't like to say that Hagerstown is to put on a better show than the state fair this fall, for that 'isn't to be expected, but they promise all comers a lot of first-class entertaln'ment and to provide a show worth 'seeing, to which there will be no tickets taken at the door. It will be an outside show. The main street of the city will be the show ground, along which will pass the grand par ade of horses, cattle, hogs and all that Tiers of seats ' will line each 6ide of the street for the comfort of visitors. A great carnival company will have numerous attractions located within easy reach of the main traveled road, and there Will be music all over the place. ' And it will be good " music, mark you; for-the Indianapolis- News Boys Band will spend four care-free hilarious days In Hagerstown, and on Thursday, "Richmond Day," a band rirom, this city will help liven things up, or would if that were needed. An Interesting Program. Afer discussing the program to be presented at Hagerstown during the four days selected, August 27th to 30th, inclusive, we had to admit that it is a mighty ambitious program for a town of that size Jo tackle. But the larger and more satisfactory the program offered, the greater the attraction and the greater the crowd. It promises to be some show and there will be something, doing every minute. The ladies of all .the . churches will co-operate in seeing that no viv Itor shall go hungry, and many will keep bpen house for the entertainment ol their friends. The success of the Horse Show and Free Fair last September inspired the folks at Hagerstown to attempt still greater things In the show line and they are at work early to insure completeness and a big success. Both day and evening ehows are provided for. All this takes money, quite a lot pi it; but that doesn't worry the boosters, nor need it. Nearly one hundred men have guaranteed $25 each and others will come in for less, if needed. There are a lot of men .who own cars In and around Hagerstown, who nevertheless have a soft pot in their hearts for a horse. They don't want to see borse3 put entirely out of business and they also enjoy a little show of speed. So the horse show is first on the list of important events. Then, by the beard of the Prophet, a place Is given to mules, on which liberal premiums will also be awarded. There will also be fine chow of cattle and hogs and It is expected that the liberal premiums Offered In that department will inare a choice display of poultry, the more especially because chickens have been such a paying investment during the past two or three years. ' To Compete with Newcastle. .They have a large Boys' Calf Club with headquarters at Hagerstown, for which the boosters of the coming ! chow are largely responsible. They also have a similar club at Newcastle, and these clubs will show and compete for prize money and the various awards at Hagerstown. which are certainly very liberal, for instance: For calf making the best gain In the number of days fed the four cash prizes are $25. $1.5, $10 and $5; for the best individual calf, $i5, $10 and 15. Then there "are sweepstakes prizes on calves, -open to both counties, and ranging from $30 for first flown to $10.00 for the fifth, for there are to be five sweepstake awards in this class. The boy presenting the best feeding record will get $10 and the next best record will win $5, and the same amounts will be awarded the two best boy judges of DON'T LET IT LINGER A cough that follows la grippe or any other cough that "hangs on" from J winter to spring wears down the suf-j ferer, leaving him or her in a weakened state, unable to ward off sickness j and disease. Jos. Gillard, 14S Fill-j ore St, Nashville, Tenn., writes: "Ij as suffering with a dry, hacking cough and a pain In my chest but silhca taking Foley's Honey and Tar I! kft'e been relieved." It soothes, heals fid cures coughs, colds and croup. Good for whooping cough. For sale by A. G. Luken & Co. Adv,

livestock. No cups are to be glvea this year in any class of awards. The special calf club exhibit will be of Polled Angus strain but all breeds of cattle are provided, for in the premium list and many strains will be shown. Both pig and calf club stock will all be registered, pureblood animals, the central idea being to wldea the interest in registered strains. The pigs are of the Poland China persuasion, so far as the Pig Club is concerned. Association Officers The official roster this year is composed la most Instances of the men who engineered affairs last fall, though there have been a few changes announced.. At the head of the list we find that these four were re-elected: President Bert Souders; vlce-p resident F. M. Whltsell; secretary, A. S. Hindman; treasurer, J. H. Stonecipher. Our readers who are interested in making displays and requiring complete information should write the secretary for catalogue and particulars. The catalogue Is now in preparation and will shortly be ready for mailing, we understand. - The executive board consists ot seven member and includes the four general officers above named to which have been added Claude Gifford, manager of the local phone company; Frank Sherry, the Ford car and tractor agent, and P. J. Stanley, the local hardware magnate. Mr. Bert Souders, president of the organization and head of the executive committee, is a well posted livestock man and Is manager of the Piano stock farm, located near Hagerstown. All the officers and men making up the Important committees are not only well known and substantial citizens but have shown themselves public spirited, as well as being enterpiislng In their own lines of endeavor. Poultry and Concessions An effort will be made to make an extra large and choice showing ot poultry and a competent Judge ot poultry will be brought to Hagerstown for the occasion. The committee on poultry exhibits and awards are: J. A. Bunnell, owner of 1,800 S. C. White Leghorns, who lives east of the town. Mr. Bunnell says he has had a very great demand for eggs for hatching tnis 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 and most attractive kind a committee of four will provide and supervise this department of the big show. The gentlemen having this important department In charge are: P. J. Stanley. Frank Whltsell, Robert Bryson and B. E. Parsons. These promise first class carnival attractions and to put up a clean show which will fittingly sandwich in with the showing of livestock and the various contests for premiums and ribbons. , Women's Department. Hagerstownbas a Ladles' 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 a success. Much credit is due the Garden Club for the beauty of the lawn3 and the large number of well kept gardens fpr which the town is noted. They feel that a peace garden this year is just as important as was the war garden during 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 a special committee 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 30. with an auction sale of live 6tock. mostly registered full-

bloods, and entirely so as relating to the sale of calf and pig exhibits. This one feature in itself would assure a large attendance and active bidding by the farm element. It is expected that airplane flights will be made daily for these have not lost attractiveness or novelty by any means. The premiums offered In the horse ring are exceptionally sattractlve and provide for registered draft horses, grade draft horses, a light harness show, registered stallions and mares, also for riding and driving contests by both women and men. The premium list offers to cattle and hog exhibitors are also tempting. Two Leading Industries Hagerstown ha3 two leading manu facturing industries of which it is justly proud. These are the TeetorHartley Motor Corporation and the Indiana Piston Ring company. Both of these concerns are working full forces and have a demand which taxes their capacities to. the limit. The Teetor-Hartley concern supplies the motors for the McFarland motor car, made at ,Connersville, and for the ooefs arcanarilla The Spring Medicine aareapuntia Puriy ,e8 tne Btood Creates an Appetite and Makes the Weak Strong Nazimova IN THE RED LANTERN

Johnson states that the McFarland motor la a six-cylinder, 90borse power engine, while the Pilot car motor, also a six-cylinder, is a 3)4 bore with a 5-inch stroke.

The Big Four service between uonnersvuie ana Hagerstown is very unsausj.acr.ory ana a petition is now in circulation asking that it be improved to suit the convenience of the people living in both towns. The publie service commission has promised to give the matter due consideration on presentation of the petition. Mr. Johnson states that the demand for auto motors exceeds the supply, and that they do not make motors for trucks, for which there is now a less urgent demand. The Teetor-Hartley plant which has been in operation many years, passed into new control about a year ago and the Teetor brothers are now in control of the piston ting plant which has a national reputation. We dropped in at the First National bank during our visit tq Hagerstown, and had a brief chat with Mr. A. R. Jones, cashier. " Speaking of the work done by the banks, Mr. Jones said that these institutions had taken hold whole-heartedly and that much credit was due the bankers for what had been accomplished, which is unquestionably true. Aa to the action of their own bank with reference to the Victory loan he stated that they had at once subscribed for $100,000 worth of these bonds and that more than half ot them had been taken by the people of the town and vicinity, and sales were still being made right along. A rather ambitious plan for paving two country roads, and Washington street from Main street to the Pennsylvania depot, 13 being considered by the town and county officials, we understand, the proposition being still in a tentative stage as yet however.
