Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1872-09-19
Fair of the Rutland County Agri-
cultural Society.
FIRST DAY.

/ County AGRICULTURAL DOcleby, OpChoo
with gloom and Encouragement, so far
as the weather and attendance was con-
cerned. It was not, however, unnatural
| for Notwithstanding old probabilities"
had promised "clear weather over New
England" the morning came upon US
cold. wet and rainy. This discouraging
weather, for an out of doors fair, was
not confined to Rutland alone, but eX-
tended all over the county, so that those
who had made their preparations to be
in at the opening, changed their minds
and concluded to wait for more auspl-
cious day AS with the morning, so in
the afternoon. 1t was cold, damp,
dreary, uncomfortable, disagreeable day,
with occasional areas of rain" Just
such a day as would repress all desire or
thought of out of doors work, eX cept in
cases of absolute necessity.
The weather, however, did not pre-
vent exhibitors from bringing forward
and entering their stock, farm produce,
mechanics work, etc, etc. The entries,
in nearly all departments, are much
larger this year than in former years
and should the weather prove prOpitious,
the fair will be one Of the most success
full exhibitions that the society has held
for years.
We give below a partial list of the en-
tries of stock, butter, cheese, etc, re-
serving comments on the more notice
able features of the fair, until our next
issue.
