now adopted aim, u ever, where, anil is
universally approved;
Z These county societies in nui Stale,
which have been most successful in rails
ing funds, that have done the most good,
and which have made themselves most
popular among the farmers Of their res.
pecsive counties, have adopted the fol-
lowing general plan OF proceeding:-
LIST. Erected permanent buildings for
their fair. nj the most convenient and ac-
cessi5le location in the county. For
This they annually obtain considerable
contribution from The inhabitants of The
place, il being quite advantageous 10 them
to have The fair held there.
I'd. The exhibition grounds are fenced
in with a tight, high board fence, the adj
mission fee to which is one shilling.
Such is the iondncss Of human nature to
witness shows Of any kind, and more es-
pecialy when shut in from vulgar gaze,
,ha, thousands will pay shilling for the
privilege of entrance, who would not
contribute single penny as subscription,
or membership, TO The most useful society
in existence.
Sd. The competition is made open 10
10 every citizen of the county, whether
n member of the sucety or not: but all
competitors are required 10 pay small
fee on each animal or article entered for
prem;um-lhe fee in each case being
a uniform per cenisge on The premiums

at one dollar, which no enlightened and

prompt payment of ibe same.
Lastly, various innocent shows and
amusemcnts are permitted a. the same
time The fairs are held, which tend to
popusariFe them among The farmers.
SO long as the county societies have
been ambulatory in their exhibitions, and
above all, held open 10 the sight of all,
they have required the hardest kind of
work Tor few spirited men barely to
keep them up in a miserable existence,
no matter how often and m whatever
shape they might appeal for their supper.

then they would flock there with their
wives and children by the thousand.
Pride and curiosity were Immediately
aroused, and the people would enter the
fenced grounds; and The best of il was,
that they would at the same time with
equal alacriiy hand over the shining shil-
lings for The privilege of doing SO. This
is human nature, and il must be dealt
with accordingly; il will always contrive
somehow TO force barred gates, and enter

Round or Stomach Worm. a.
This worm is usually found in the small
intestines, and is the worm most common
10 children, yet it is not entirely confined
to them, as adults have frequently been
known to suffer with them. The symp-
toms most prominent while affected with
this worm, are hardness and fullness of the
belly, Shiny stools, looseness of the bowels,
picking at The nose, blueish streak under
the eyes, sc. If you, or any of your chill
