Addison County Far.
The officers of the Addison County
Agricultural Society, confidently looking
for the cooperation Of all the industrial
classes, as well of the farmers Of ths coun-
ty, would ask all to present any or all
animals or articles of merit at the adjourn
ed Fair to be held at the usual grounds,
Tuesday, Wednesday aud Thursday,
Oct. Sth, 9th aud 10Th. The large
number of entries on the first day Of the
attempted fair, encourage us to believe
that the best show ever made up IN the
Western Vermont, may be realized if the
people wiH it, and take hold Of the matter
with proper spirit and bring forward
animals and articles of interest and merit
(of which there is an over abundance with.
in easy distance of Middlebury) to make
the exhibition one long to be remembered
by US all.
Let each and every one consider this
invitation to be addressed personally to
themselves, and that each one is under
personal obligation to make up a good
show, and worthy Of what Addison Coun-
ty can do. To make it sure that all may
he accommodated we would be under
obligations to all who would make entries
during this week, and next, at the Office
OF the Secretary in the sales room Of the
Middlebury Wooden Co., or by mail.
Wi b the great abundance of fruit this
year we hope to see the finest exhibition
in that department ever made at the S.
ciety Fair, aud we hope that the liberal
premiums offered in all classes, will call
out large and interesting exhibition.
As will be seen by the rules of the Society,
we open the competition to all without
the county, as well as to all in it. aud
VIC therefore hope for the cooperation
Of the neshboring counties to help US
to make this tho holiday lai, ct this see.
ton Of tho country. Arrangem have
been made for fare one way from all
stations in the county on the r
Railroad and over the Addison Railroad,
aud for rebuilding Ireights on all ami
mails or articles actually exhibited, over
the same roads within the county, aud
we hope before the fair to perfect ar
engagements of like nature, over the
same roads to points more remote with
out the county.
All entries made aud tickets sold pre-
vious to this time, hold good for the
adjourned fair.
