STATE FAIR REFORMS.

We commend the following remarks from the
Ohio Farmer TO the exhibi tors of, and Commit
tees on Cattle, at our next State Fair We
consider them well worthy of attention, and
the rules laid down by the Ohio State Agricul-
iural Society deserving of imitation -
The next Estate Fair of Ohio, !" will present
some very marked features of reform one of
the most important of which, will be the care
inl obseryace of the condition of breeding an
imals." 1t will be remembered by many of
those who read The Farmer, that several com
munieaIions have appeared in its columns. from
prominent stock breeders, calling attention 10
the fact, that committee men have generally dis.
regarded the rules of the Board, ;" one of which
Aas expressly stipulated, that encouragement
,eas not 70 De gipen 10 overfcd animals, the OBJ
lect being to encourage superior animals for
breeding.
1t has been very common for stock men to
hesitate about taking stock to the Fairs. ospe-
elally have those hesiiated, whose experience
has been considerable in such matters thew hav-
ing IN some cases learned TO their loss. that tn
lit cav, or bull for "a Pair which sIaII
show in flesh with their competitors, laid them
liable to the loss of the use Of the animal as "a
breeder" for one year at least. This has han.
pened in some cases we cohld name them if
required. But the evil is familiar TO all stocl,
men, and they having first laid the foundation
Tor it, by commencing with the "6rst State
Fair" to feed high, and accnstpm the eve ~ no
committee man to see excellence on,v in h;rL
conditioned animals, they should now dives,
themselves of this abominablo error. which ann
poses an animal not ft for "shbw', unless G,,,eJ
10 show their cattle stock ID good "breedina
condition, which is considerable remove crom
a laifed State, will tend greatly 10 their necnn-
larry advantage, besides SAVING some ora;n .,a
care. Bot it is now rendered ;,apero,;re ,h.,
due care be observed to preserve the breeding
qualities OF all stock exhibited as breeders. and
we take this mode of calling attention to The
matter at length that those interested will make
a note Of the ''rules," and go to the next Ohio
9'a'o ralr with full knowledge of the facts,
prepared 20 assist in putting down an evil, by
which exhibitors themselves have been the
principle sufferers. The following paragraph
occurs IN the Secrelary's Report, in the Aari-
cultural Report for 1854
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1855-07-07

"The very rcprehensible practice should be
done away with, forwarding premiums to breed
ing animals, that have been put in high oondi-
hon, thereby permanently injuring, and in many
cases suspending, for longer or shorter period,
their powers Of Reproduction, for which object
alone they were kept, and rendered valuable to
their owners and to the public. In this way,
the very liberal premiums offered for the best
breeders, have been in many cases paid to tho
owners Of the very animals that are loaded down
with mere gross fat, well fitted for the sho,nJles
and as the result frequently proves, fl for no
other object. We are happy to announce, that
so far as the estate Fairs" are concerned, there
is fhir prospect Of new rule being introduced,
by which )aifed breeding cows, bulls, and young
stock, viii be ruled ouf, as having been entered
in the wrong class. The following rule will be
found in tho estate Fair Premium List, " which
is now about to be distributed from the office Of
the Board at Columbus.
Competitors for premiums on DRErDNo AN
lMALs, are required to exhibit them in breeding
condition, not fatied, and evidence must bo pro-
duced that they are breeders, aud not barrel
animals" At another place, under the head
of Instructions to judges. the following occurs,
"Thcy are expressly required not 10 arard to
oreyfid animals. No premiums arc TO DO a.
warded to cows, bulls, OF heifers, which shall
appear 10 hare been jaHcned, the object being to
have superior animals Of this description for
breeding"

We find the following mentioned instance of
youthful simplicity, and quickness of repartee,
which in children sometimes so queerly deyel-
oles itself, in one of our exchanges =
"a little boy, about five yeats Of age, was
sent to the grocery store on some ,rifing er-
randi and while there, his bright eyes lighted
upon barrel Of PiPpins exposed iempiingly to
view, just outside Of the door. 10 going out.
il appears he took one, and returned TO his
mother, munching ii.

HAY FOR Cows IN SuMMtR---An observing,
intelligent and successful farmer informs us that
he is in the practice of feeding his cows with
hay in summer, particularly IL the season is
such as TO afford flash pastures. His reasoning
is that full, rapid and vigorous growth Of
grass gives to cattle that feed upon il, desire
for something to absorb the excess of the juice
in their food. Dry hay they dcvour greedily,
and though 10 ever so small quantities, evident
ly with the most beneficial effects. Every far
mer must have observed that in dry seasons
horses, cattle and sheep, keep in good condition

green, and can be profiably used by feeding it
