CO fo the rairs.

The fair season has already opened, when
the treasures of the field and orchard, the gar
den and hot-house sty and stable, are tempt
ingly displayed nnder white tents, and in rough
board stalls. The very name of far calls up
hong loaded tables of luscious fruits, purple
clusters of the vine, dowuy peaches, plums
blashii,g through their powdered bloom, heaps
Of yellow pears and crimson apples great rows
OF bags stuffed with premium wheat and rye,
psns OF sleek porkers and patient sheep. stalls
aof ueighiny steeds and smooth ribbed cattle,
and last but not least, acres of good natured
men, women, and children, mostly hailing from
the farm, and given up to the festal day We
consider the Fairs worth far more than they
cost, as a holiday for farmers. As class We
are more overworked, and have fewer opportu-
mites for social gatherings and enjoyment than
other people. The farm, as rule, is short
handed, having at least three times as much
work on hand as can he done by the present
laborin9 force and there never seems to come
day of relaxation. The boys cannot so a
fishing until planting is over, and then they
must take a rainy afternoon. Then hoeing is
pressing. and the moving presses still harder,
and the scythes are hardIyput up for the Sum
mer before the fairs are announced. 1t is meet
+ after the fatigues Of the Summer work are
over, that all the sons and daughters of the
farm should have grand rally, and look at
each Others faces, as well as at the products of
the soil. Old ties of friendship are strength
ened, and new acquaintance mutually pleasant
y and profitable are formed. The day is bright
spot in the circle, and thousand pleasant
memories cluster around IT,
But there is direct utility, as well as social
enjoyment in these occasions. 1t is impossible
that the industry Of whole county should be
ftly represented at fair without furnishing
many profitable suggestions to every intelli
gent farmer. Our farms are by no means 81
well stocked with tools and the. best breeds o.
:. animals, that there is not room for some kind
E Of Improvement on almost every farm. Every
one who goes with a disposition to learn, vii
find something new, some invention saving la
Dor, or some suggestion that will make th'
present process of labor more productive
The mind viii receive a large accession of pab
uIim for future digestion, and the facts of
day will furnish thoughts for year.
We say then go to the fairs and take up tn
wife and children, and have real good tim
ence in year. Send up beforehand the bes
products of the farm, if possible, but by al
means go yourself, nete book in hand, and us
your eyes and pencil when you get there.

The Nevada Democrat., 1860-06-06

THE BLACK Rock CouNTRY-A correspondent
of the Maryyille Democrat writing from near Black
Rock, where he has been prospecting, says
This region of country is one of the worst burned
up by volcanic heat that have ever seen, and on
the whole presents aspect cheerloss and un-
inviting as the eye Of man is wont to rest upon.
But even here there are curiosites Of Nature that
absorb the interest Of the traveller, and serve in
measure to draw his thoughts from the sombre
gloom that the general face of Nature around him
wears. With no standing timber within n hundred
miles Of this place, we find petTifed logs Of wood
some three or four feet in diameter, while waters,
hot and cold, gush almost from the same fountain.
There have been several leads discovered here that
said to contain silver, but whether in sufficient
quantities to justify working is unknown yet, as
the country has been but slightly prospected. There
also said to be places where gold is found near
here; but thelfuture must determine the amount OF
the mineral resources Of this region.
