BUTLER'S BIG FAIIt.
The Weather is the half of it, and if
the magician, or astrologer or nec
romancer of the weather for this sec
tion of the Earth's surface had deliberate
ly set about to favor the people of Bnt
ler county, and the handsome and intel
ligent Board of Directors of the Bntler
County Agricultural Association, he i
could not have done better. We re * 'it
oncemore Hie thee to the Fair. Jump j
| on the cars and slide down for a nickel, j
The Big Fair is with us again bigger
i than ever. In no department is it in-
I ferior to former exhibitions and indica
i tioas are that before it is over everyone
i will agree in its being unusually sue- j
I ceesful and interesting.
The live stock exhibits are particular-'
ly fine. There are magnificent herds of j
Jersey. Holstein, Ayrshire. Durham. '
Hereford. Devon and Polled cattle, j
Several of the cows of the larger .breeds |
weigh 1800 pounds and more while j
there are Durham. Hereford, Poll'd and
; Holstein bulls weighing over 2300.
j There are fine herds of Jerseys from
• the J. S. Campbell's Clearview farm
| and the .T. C. Campbell farui at
i Kiester. Most of the cattle came from
! other counties.
The exhibits of sheep, hogs and
j poultry are excellent. A. Freehling &
j Son, of Carbon Black, are showing - >me
i line Cotswold sheep.
Among the horses David Hesselgesser
jof Leasnreville Wm. Hesselgessc-r of
i Worthington, W. J Bricker of Sarvers
! ville and Turner of Harlansbnrg are ex
hibiting heavy Clydesdales. I. N. Don-j
j aldson of W. Snnbnry andlfftsof Evans
' City and Wick have Percherons and
j English Clydes: W H Cypher of Sar
j versrille has a large sorrel English
' Shire horse; W. Millironof West Win
' field has some fine Percherons. while
I there are large numbers of fast, fancy
• roadsters and Standard breds entered by
Masseth. Jas. Hays Dr. Bricker. EL
Morehead. Douthett's Brownsdale stock
farm and others.
In Floral Hall the ladies' beautiful
exhibit of oil paintings, hand-painted
China, fancy needle work, quilts, etc.
are attracting considerable attention.
They are not exhibits on their steenth
show, either, but are mostly new. There
are rich displays of jellies, preserves and
bread stuffs. The Newton, Core and
Davis music houses keep music in the
air constantly.
There were no races scheduled for
Tuesday. Wednesday afterntoon there
were the 2:40 pace and 2:19 trot, the
special Butler county race and a run
ning race.
Thursday and Friday afternoons will
be alive with fast trots and paces, in
which local horses will compete. Ther*
will also be exhibitions by a troop of
trained horses and trick bicycle riders.
Friday afternoon there is to be a 200-
yard race between the Rescue and First
Ward Hose teams for a sls purse, win
ner to take all. This will make a live
lier spectacle than any horse race.
There are bnt two herds of Holstein
cattle on exhibition, and lnith are own
ed by Bntler county men. T. Walter
Bartley of Butler and J. D. Williams of
Brownsdale.
James Cochran of McCandless. Amos
Young. Miller Hutchison of W. Sun
bury and Wm. Grabe of Jefferson twp.
are showing fine herds of Durhams.
Cochran has a bnll like unto that in
Longfellow's poem: "Milk-white."
There are more sheep and fewer hogs
than e* former fairs while the poultry rs
about average.
Among the exhibitors of poultry are
Wm. Pringle and ,T. H Robb of Renfrew
W. J. Fox of Carbon Black. C. W.
Stokey ot Zeno, and G. W. Maurhoff of
Saxonburg.
Leiglmer & Martincourt are showing
everything in the line of harness, bug
gies, etc.
The displays of vegetables and fruits
are very slim.
OIL NOTES.
VENANGO CO. —Jack Wick and Dick
Reynolds got a 25 bbl. well in Sandy
Creek twp. Venango Co. last week, and
expect to have another soon.
JEFFKRSON' —Phillips' well on Wilson
Graham reached the sand last Saturday
night, when the well began flowing oil
and water over the derrick. It is third
sand territory, and is considered the
best well in the neighborhood.
KAYLOK-The East Brady Oil Co's
No. 3 on the Solomon Mays farm at
Kaylor reached the oil sand on Thurs
day after tapping a heavy gas pressure,
and then started off to flow 60 barrels
for the first hour, gradually dropping
down to 10 barrels an hour Monday
when a shot was pnt in and the well lje
gau spouting oil at the rate of 100
barrels an hour. The heavy gas pres
sure and big flow rendered it impossible
to shut in the well for some little time,
; and when this was finally accomplished
the drillers, derrick and everything else
adjoining the well was covered and
saturated with oil. The oil spouted high
over the derrick and was the strongest
flowing well that has yet been brought
in by this fortunate company, as well as
the biggest producer since l>eing shot.
It is not, however, expected that this
record will be kept up long as the ter
ritory drops down in a few months to
good steady producing wells of lit to 15
barrels a day, but continues this for
years. It is a fine strike, the last lo
cation the East Brady Oil Co. have on
that lease. Adjoining them are Peters,
Pitts & Davis Bros, on the Kaylor farm,
who will start drilling this week their
No. 2. This well is only about 50 feet
from the East Brady Oil Co's No. 3.
Miller & Co. on the Miller farm will
reach the sand in tlieir No. 1 this week.
Gibson & Co. on the McGarvey farm
brought in a duster Monday—their No.
1. B. L. Barnhart is pushing the drill
downward in his No. 7 on the Joseph
Barnhart farm. —Review.

day in entertaining tli# Voting People's
Christian Union coi:«orion ami the
sixty-five delegates and ®titors can have
none but pleasant reeol'flß; >ns of their
basts H<v Umili 11*11 IT P. cbarch in
which the conventions was held was
decorated with an abundance of ferns
and flowers, when Pres. W. C. Stoops
of Mt. Chestnut called the assemblage
to ordt r Wednesdav afternoon.
The program for "that day was varied
s-> as to permit l*>th Rev. J. Knox
Montgomery and Evangelist T. C. Mc-
Kelvey, who were delayed enroute. to
speak in the evening. The evening
meeting was conducted by .Tames H.
Barr of Prospect.
Thursday morning addresses were
made by Rev. A. J. Nathan. Rev. Mont
gomery, and a "quiet hour's" worship
was in charge of Rev. McKeU ev.
Praise service Thursday 'afternoon
was conducted bv Willis Brown of
Harrisville. Rev. ,T S. McKee had
charge of the "Question Box. ' Jcunie
Graham, of West Sunbury read a paper
entitled "Oar Pledge," Myrtle Cooper a
paper. "Is our church standing bv her
distinctive principles' and Will Johnston
of Pardoe and Angie McClung of Bald
win spoke relatively to the same subject.
Rev. McKelvey conducted an hour's
Bible study.
The business session was held Thnrs?
day evening and Will Stewart of West
Snnbnry was elected President, Mrs. R.
E. English of Petrolia Recording Sec y,
and Clarence Watson of Mt. Chestnut
Treasurer. The Springfield, Pardoe,
society asked for next year's convention
and got it. The election of a national
delegate was neglected.
The singing was spirited and full of
praise and was one of the convention's
most pleasing features. Prof. Bruce
Gill led the choir and Miss Zoe
Hockenberry presided at the organ and
both merit much praise.
The enly criticism that could be made
is that the meetings were not called to
order promptly at the time scheduled.
Tlic Meeting of the Teachers
The school t acliers of Bntler county
to the number of over two hundred met
in the Court House last Thursday after
noon and were addressed by Sup't.
Fruit of Mercer county and Sup't.
Painter of Butler county. The purpose
of this meeting.as we were informed by
Sup't. Painter, was to brinir before the
teachers, and especially the younger
ones, some of the ordinary, practical.
1 yet important) school questions, which
every teacher must meet in his or her
work. He believes that much of the
work done in the regular County Insti
tute is rather beyond the average teach
er and endeavored in this meeting to
speak to the teachers on some import
ant points which the paid instructors
seldom mention.
Each of the speakers made good prac
tical addressees, and from the reports
which come to us from various teachers,
we think the meeting was a most decid
ed success.
Snp't. Painter had for each one pres
ent a school law. a copy of the State
Constitution, and some pictures.
Through the kindness of the Bntler
County National Bank each teacher also
received a copy of the Butler County
Centennial Souvenir.
This is a new feature in the school
work of Bntler county and we think
Sup't. Painter is to l>e commended up
on the untiring efforts which he is put
ting forth in behalf of our schools.
