Annual Meeting Of the Grant County Ag-
rioultural Society--the 18th, 10Th 4 Goth
September
The 18th Annual Exhibition of
the Grant County Agricultural Soci,
ETY. is to be held at the Fair Grounds
in Lancaster, next week, commence
ing on Wednesday the 18th Sept. and
hold for three days.
The Superintendent, Mr.. Bndd, is
busy making arrangements for the
accommodation Of the thousands to
80 present with their stock and ar
ticlc- for exhibition. Several new
buildings have been erected and pla>
ccs provided for the exhibitors Of
fruits, valuable things and so forth
in view Of their better protection
than formerly. The Secretary, I. A.
Burr, win see that his department is
arranged more orderly than before,
and in manner for rapid business dis,
patch. And the Treasurer also, it is
expected will see that the gates are
SO managed that all shall pay who
90 in.
Very many if not all the object,
i've points hitherto existing, will be
out Of the way this year, and there's
fore greatly less room for grumbing
Thus, from year to year improve
mcnts will be made calculated to
raise up the Fair and encourage en-
terprise in the arts and sciences, in
manufactures and farm industry
and in all things calculated to make
the people wiser and better, nobler
and happier.
But humane effect and equally
great good is the moral and social
influence Of the county fair. Men
and Women, old and young, friend
and foe, stranger and .quaintence
relative and friend, debtor and cred
itor, affianced and lover-all these do
hold at least annual meetings at the
county fair, where the bonds that
unite heart to heart shall receive
more strength. Numbers of life un>
ions have quickened and budded at
the county; thousands of acquain-
tances have been formed ut the fair
and at each succeeding fair link ad i,
ded it will not be long till all are
enchanted. after which the electric
current of love to God and men will
pass from heaven to the entire circle.
