Had it not been for the rain on the first
day it would without doubt have been the
best FAIR ever holden in the County. The
address by Rev. l.. II. Stone was excellent.
aud spoken highly of by all, and will with
'ut doubt soon appear in our news prints.
have also been requested to note the
Of the ladies' department in the
'lorul Hall. That it was deficient in near
y every respect is fact that will not be
lenled by any one who entered it, and some
Inducements must be held out by the Socle-
y or some ambition excited among the com
petitors of that department. else II had
better be at once appropriated to some other
get up small course IN it for
, trotting horse,u have some splendid horse
enter it for exhibition. Perhaps this hint
will be sufficient for the purpose of calling
he attention of the Society to the matter
md If so have performed my duty accord
ng TO request Ny personal views will be
expressed at the next annual meeting. The
officers of the Society also wish another
gentle hint given to the editorial department
Of the County and are Of the opinion that
should they manifest more interest and take
more notes Of things i'll general and fine
things 10 particular, and be on the ground
like the people of nearly all other occcupa-
lions on the days of the Fair, that II might
not particularly injure their interest or the
interest of the Society. For sample, we
would introduce Mr.. Crosby of Woodstock,
firm of Brown g. Crosby, publishers of an
excellent agricultural paper, which we hope
may have, as il deserves, an extensive circu>
latlon. Mr.. Crosby was on the ground and
in the hall when it rained, and when fair,
'aklng particular pains to note every thing
and that which would interest
ms readers hope every member Of the (
Society and the rest of mankind will sub. |
scribe for his paper, and pay for it, as they
should every other one, in advance.
Respectfully submitted,
J. NJ. RICHARDSON, Secretary.
