The Directors of the Agricultural Society
meet this evening for the purpose of com

will be placed upon basis similar to that
of the Scott County (Iowa) Agricultural
Society, with . sinking fund for the purpose
of purchasing and improving the
grounds. /. is certainly oesi'
rsble that some such plan should be
devised and carried out, as then there viii
be some incentive tor the county to work
