Maryland State Agricultural Society.
4 PPEAL TO THE MEMBERS OF THE MAINLAND
n STATE AGRICULTURAL SocIETY.--We desire
chat you should bear in mind, that ON the 23d
Gath. and 25th days of October, your Society will
hold its annual Exhibition aud Fair at the city Of
Baltimore and we appeal to you, one and all, to
bring for exhibition thereat portions of your stock,
The products Of your orchards, and Of your gardens.
Don't presume that any animal, or product, you
NAV own is inferior to others that will be here,
and be thus deferred from bringing them, as 1t Is
only by comparison that the relative merits of any
thing can be determined. The safer presumption
for you to arrive at will be that what you have
as as good, if not better than that Of others, and
that it behooves you to calamity enter the list OF
competition: if defeated honorably, and the high
character Of the judges is a guarantee that you
can be defeated in no other way, you will enjoy
the luxury Of knowing that others were more en-
tiled to success than yourself.
And while we address you to bring such articles
as are properly in your department, we crave per-
mission to solicit your interest, to induce your
,cipes and daughters to bring whatever appertains
to their peculiar departments, as ebroiae'y mousse
hold manufactures, the proaucts Of the dairy and o.
the poultry yard, preserves. domestic 'otnes, cotec
TONS and above all things, to come themselves, as
,orthout ,ponan and the beautiful Celebrations Of her
asie and genius. display eau be perfect
To the Manufacturers Of agricultural Implements
and Tools, we would say, that interest and patr-
otism both combine to en]oln upon you the pro
priety Of making grand exhibition of your ma
chinery Of all kinds as from our present advices,
we are led to believe that the assemblage of farm
ers and planters, and of distinguished strangers
from most OF the States of the Union, will be
greater than upon any former occasion here or
elsewhere We therefore say to the agricultural
Inplement makers and Mechanics Of the United States
make it matter of pride to display your machi-
merry at our exhibition, and vie with each other in
having the best and largest assortment on the
ground. Such ambition is laudable-is worthy OF
American genius and should be cherished ny the
American heart
as Editors with whom we exchange will con-
fer favor by copying this notice.
