by Daniel Marsh of Paris, The French Merinoes
are very fine wooded sheep, but the Spanish Meri.
no seems to be the most popular with our farmers.
Spanish Merino-l8 Entries.
Many of our farmers have gone quite largely
into the growing of Spanish Merino WOOL These

sheep.

fuence of the increased price of wool, which bids
fair to be permanent tor the next few years to
come, we expected to see fuller exhibition of the
sheep of our county.
Shrine and Poultry-7 Enta-ies
There was but little show of interest in this de-
partment Of course, no farmer expects to get
along without either, but they apparently think
there is no chance for improvement, in such ap-
parently small matters.

Owing to the crowd of other matter upon our
columns, and the length to which our notes of the
Fair have strung out, we are compelled to put the
conclusion ofthem over to next week The La
dies Department, the Fruit, and vegetable De-
partment and the Farming Implement Depart>
ment, will occupy more space than we have to
spare this week. We therefore like the story writ
era have to say,
CONCLUDED NEXT WEEK.
