The Warrlck Oounty Fair.

We regret that the absence Of part
Of our editorial force prevented a
personal attendance on the exhibition.
We had provided, as we thought, to
have a full report, but we were dsap
pointed. We find the following in
the Boonville Enquirer:
Our County. Fair which closed last
week proved perfect success. The
attendance was large, especially on
Friday, when more people were pres
ent than on any previous occasion for
years. The weather was everything
that could be desired, warm, clear and
balmy. The display Of cattle was
good, but not so large as on former oc-
casions. Of sheep there was fine
show both of coarse and fine wool
One Of the attractions of the fair was
tho beautiful Cashmere goats entered
By Major Shook Of this place. They
ELECTED universal admiration, and was
quitea marked feature in the fair.
Of hogs the representation was not
so good as on former occasions, all
though we noticed some very fine
ones. The display of horses and
mules were decidedly the best ever
Witnessed in this county. The mis-
cellaneous department was we'll rep,
resented, chiefly the handiyork of
the fair danes and beautiful maidens
Of Warriek County. s.o 81.
On the whole the fair was credit
to the County and Society. which has
long desorvedly ranked as first among
the Agricultural Societies Of the
State. In pecuniary point Of view
~ was AZ successful as could reasona-
bly, have been ANTICIPATED. The prem,
iums awarded will appear in another
issue of our piper.
