The Coming County Fair.

The list ofpremiums, to be awarded at
the next Fair of the Linn County Agri-
cultural Association, appears in our col
umns this morning 1t will be seen by
careful perusal, that the list of premiums
have not only been increased, but, in nu-
merous instances, they have been en-
farged also, thus adding greater induce
ments to competitors to do their sslevel
best" The list has been thoroughly and
carefully scanned, altered and amended,
by the officers Of the Society, 30 the end
that fnh Inducements shall be of
Sered to all branches efindustry to bring
eut the very best productions, and to
properly award each and every article
exhibited. In this endeavor they have
shown that they understand, and intend,
10 the extent and ability of the Society,
to carry out the design and spirit of its
organization, town.: To develop spirit
Of emulation among farmers, horticultur-
lists, stock>raisers, mechanics and artisans,
that will iRdace the production of the
= very best in each branch of industry, and
tend to a more full and complete devel-
epment Of the varied resources of this
portion ofthe great Willamette Valley.
In arranging the premiums for the COM
ing Fair, they had the experience gained
BY the previous exhibitions of the Socie-
sy TO guide them, and have attempted to
so arrange the list as to give the varied
aterests to be represented fair and
equal showing, so that the cry of partiali-
ty might not with truth be charged
against them. We have deemed it our
duty to say this much with regard to the
Society and its premiums, now offered for
she consideration of our people, because
we, together with the large mass of the
Intelligence of the county, desire to see
fuller representation of its industries,
and a,ore successful and complete Fair
throsgkeut, in September next, than
Linn County has ever yet seen-an exhibit
tion that will not only do honor to US as
people, but viii prove instructive and
beneficial in the highest degree to all.
We hope that our people, seeing the good
effects to be derived from well conducted
institutions of this character, will take
bold of the matter with zeal and deter
mination that will insure complete and
overwhelming success Fair to be
referred to in after years with pride and
satisfaction by all who participated in its
Benefits and Instructions. Our citizens
have only to take hold of the matter in
proper earnest, laying aside all prejudices
that have doubtless contributed not a
Ettle to defeat the main object of the
Association in former years, and the
fullest success for the Fair of 1871 is
aecurei beyond a neradrantnre

1t affords much pleaure to give you, in these
Fortes of your manufacture. We have used
the sPatent Arion Pianos in our Conservatives
for year, and have had fair opportunity of test
ing their durability during that time. The Pianos
have been played upon almost constantly, from
morning till night, and Piano Ust indeed be q
good one " ben it will bear such constant with
out showing signs of detection. As for remoiaing
an tune, it out rivals any Piano known to me.
Their peculiar sweetness of tone in the treble !,
(as compared to other Pianos with the ordinary
metal agrafFe arrangement is striking that
have had pupils remark, while taking their
that although they had at home what they sup
posed to be of the best makes of Pianos. still
the treble was very wirey toned compared with the
'ARION.'
What makes them still more desirable is their
uniform volume of tone, which enables an Artist to
perform a composition in IFS true character.
In total, can conseentously endorse all that is
claimed by the Arion Piano Forte Company for
their superb Instruments, as consider them su-
perior to any other make.
Congratulatng you upon the great success You
have obtained in the manufacture of so perfect
instrument, remain yours,

Fences and watcr-Eates are - scarce

water entered the shop of G. l.. Bavless,
washing over his tool chest, and took
away a number of small tools living
about in the shop. w. Ii. Kennedy snf-

The rain was accompanied by strong
wind, blowing the corn down and in
many places almost destroying the oat
crop. Heavy rains fell again on Friday
and Saturday following, but not much
damage ensued, as there was not much
to do except wash down Il few Temporal

day to day, and wheat il damaging
