FOURTH DAY.
Yesterday was the fourth and last day Of
the Cape Fear Agricultural Association.
The attendance on The occasion was very
large, between 5000 and 1000 persons
, having been present on the Grounds,
Everything passed oil very pleasantly and,
so far as We could learn, all enjoyed them
selves. The last train lett after sundown,
when The Grounds were ali deserted and
, the Fair had closed.
There was quite a variety of amuse-
ments offered during the day, principal
among which may be reckoned races OF
+ various kinds; horse races, a fox race,
WheelbarrOW race, a sack race, and, to
crown all, balloon ascension. This latter
was a really fire affair. The ;eronaut was
the same fearless lad who made the first
! ascension. As the body Of the balloon
floated upwards, he seated himself on the
trapeze bar, and i'll few minute was far
: above the earth. The heigh. attained was
! yaIiously estimated at between a half mile
and a mile, and the balloon flOated beauti
fully. The wind was almost due north,
and the balloon fell at spot about half q
mile south Of the Fair Grounds, descend
ing very gradually to the earth.
MOore'S mare, Fannie. vas put on the
! course and trottCd a mile i'll 3:11t, and
much interest was excited by a tIotting
match between bay mare and a cream
mare, each 80 years old, and the property
/ of DR.. w. ID. Mcmillan. They both made
good time, the heat being only half mile.
1t was won by the bay mare in 1916
! On the whole, it may be said that the
! Fair was a very successful one, although
. the exhibition in several departments was
not as good as the Association had reason
to expect. This fact, however, was fully
atOned for by the superior exhibitions
made in some OF the other departments,
and which have had no Taralcl in this
section, at least.
To the kind friends who have visited our
city during the past week, we return thanks
for their attendance and earnestly hope
that we may all meet on the same Grounds
again next November
KIrPoRHlMORRHEA.- the horse dis
ease Is now upon us we give the following
practical hims upon the treatment of the
horse The three essentials of treat
ment are lest, warmth and care. The
horse should be excused from work, the
instant any symptoms manifest themselves,
even if the load be left IN the street. The
