100 Years Ago Today: PWCo Farmers' Annual Picnic

Manassas Journal (VA)
27 July 1923

PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY FARMER'S ANNUAL PICNIC

The Prince William County Farmers Annual Picnic will be held at the Courthouse, Manassas, Va., on FRIDAY, AUGUST 3, 1923.

This is to be an all-day Basket Picnic with speaking, both in the forenoon and in the afternoon. While held under the auspices of the County Farmers' Union, every farmer, his family and his friends are invited. Hon. G. A. Lambert, State President, and Geo. H. Bowles, State Secretary, will be with us. U.S. Senator Fletcher and other prominent speakers are expected.

Let this be a great "Home-Coming" anniversary for all farmers of the county. As there is to be no county fair this year, this is the only county "get-together" the farmers will have. Let's make the most of it. COME--meet and greet your friends, talk crops, politics, the weather, eat a good dinner, hear the addresses, and have a good time. 

Please advertise the picnic among your friends.

J. H. DODGE, Secretary-Treasurer
County Farmers' Union
