Rutland County Fair.
FIRST DAY

10y ""o Pioasdut anu agreeable, a1thoug
n at times a threatening cloud appeared
y but no rain fell, making the opening da,
y pleasant to all. The time was mainl
! spent in the entry of articles and thei
: arrangement for the remaining two day
J. exhibition. The entries thus far hav
l. been large, and probably large increas,
: will be made to-day, before the hour o
e closing, 10 al A large number of yer,
=. fine cattle are on the ground, including
those of Daniel Kimball, O.. G.. Peiroe, J
s. Emery, Gen. Ripley, Mr.. Freeman, and
other herds of less dimensions. From the
appearance of cattle, it is evident that the
cattle of Rutland county are being mate.
really improved, and it is hoped that this
spirit of improvement will increase until
we have herds in our county that will
equal in number and value those of any
other county in the State. The horses are
of fine class, far better than previous
exhibitions have shown, and we NAV
safely predict that the class of horses that
will be presented will be far better than
has been usual. In all the other depart
ment of animals the show is equally good
The Floral Hall is rapidly being fitted
with articles evincing fine taste, and of
superior quality.
We will not particularise in this de-
partment, reserving that for more
minute examination of them when bet
ter opportunity is presented. Lorain
Vaughan, Mrs. @. E. Palmer, and Miss
Clara Briggs have made large and valua-
BILE contributions to this department
The exhibition in Floral Hall will up-
doubtedly be largely increased by the
entries to-day, as the premiums and in
ducements in this department are attrac-
tive and generous.
The exhibition at the present time bids
well to be a great success. Should the
weather be favorable for an out door dis
play, to-day the exhibition will com
mence in reality. The cavaloade of
horses, the walkist aud the races will be |
attractions that will draw a full house.
