let it be understood that whilst competition is
open to all, by the rules Of the Society premi
utns can be demanded only by the members of
the Society and their wives and children, boys
over twelve years of age excepted. This rule
was adopted upon the idea that members evince
such an interest in the Society, as the Society
feels bound to reciprocate.
The Executive Committee would take this
opportunity OF returning their thanks to our
farmers aud others for the lively interest they
have taken in our Fair and the efforts they have
made to make it success. And while the So
Getty is under obligation to the Award Commit
tees for the discharge Of their duties with more
or less Of care and promptltGde, 1t Is noderoga-
ton to others to say that the thanks OF the So
cety are in an especial manner due to j. &.
Buchanan, who acted as Chairman of Commit
tee on stock, for the energy and tact with which
his committee acted, the thoroughnes OF their
examination, and the care with which their
awards were made.
5 Now, word in conclusion. The object and
aim Of the Society has ever been the develop
ment ofthe industrial capabilities of our county, |
of her mines of mineral wealth, and the i'm
proye.nent Of her people in all that ennobes

ceived profit fron it. This has been our main
object, other things We have regarded and will
