The Board will take this occasion to say that the
premiums are not so large nor the articles as nu-
merous as they had hoped; this is owing, however,
to the fact that our Society is yet in ITS infancy.
Navy look upon it as an experiment that may not
succeed, and have not given it their influence.
We, however. feel that the Society deserves and
will receive the support of the public.
The Board earnestly recommend the farmers to
bring out their stock to the exhibition; let none be
deferred from the tear of being eclipsed by others
The only thing the Board fears is that the farmers
will not bring out their stock, &c., under the i'm.
preston that it is not worth exhibiting. They
hope this will not be the case.
