The programme for the day was follow
when it seemed TO cease TO be guide, and
hence confusion was the result yet on the
whole, it has been gratifying day to the Of
ficcrs of the association. Qlite 4 number
of new articles were to be seen on exhibit
ton and the general show Of stuff is I'M
doubtedy superior to last year. Yet the
attendance thus far has not been quite as
large, there being between 5000 and 1000
people on the grounds at the time OF the
address by Mr.. Evarts, who made quite
lengthy speech, and although it was very
hard for him to make himself heard in the
open air yet the attention was good and
he was frequently applauded. He spoke of
the necessity that farmers are under to use
the mind more and get out of the rut that
our " political" farmers have followed so
long.
He reminded them that talking was not
acting, and to get the thoughts of this
thinking there must be Il corresponding
acting, thus bringing this calling up to
the standard that the mechanic arts have ar
rived at during the past few years lie
touched upon the burdensome taxation of
the laboring classes, and pointed out the
way of relief, But the main point of the
address was, that talking is not acting
promises are not deeds sand illustrated by
the political corruption going on around us,
and making strong application of it to
our money; strongly advocating specie
payments rather than these hollow prom
ises this talking rather than acting and
finally flattering the farmers by calling
them the back bone" of the country in all
trying times, their work being something
more than hollow words.
Music for the day was furnished by the
Claremont Band, to the evident satisfaction
of ALL
A large number of hawkers besou ght the
multitude for their cash and the attraction
of many instruments of sound was made
instrumental in keeping the crowd about
them, while swings and slde-shows offered
chance for recreation TO rye sons of
toll" The only thing of this kind worthy
of note was the Croydon Hog" which,
when alive, weighed 1924 pounds ! length
along the back 8 feet inches girth, 7
feet inches.
This is claimed to be the largest hog in
the world and probably is. 1t was raised
by Hon. L. V. Coyler of Croydon, N, H.,

And they hustled me tnstanter

For their Skill. Now I'm elected

Last Monday was our regular county court
day. The weather was good, but the crown in
town was not large, owing to the fact that the
Garrard Circuit Court begun on that day, and
that many farmers were busy preparing to
start their plows. The stock sales were mea-
gre as will be seen from the report Of auction
ets We missed the sonorous voice Of Col.
Carpenter, suctioneer, he being absent for the
first time for many months. We noticed
and indeed felt il very sensibly--thst there
was'a lack Of currency in circulation. The
day was unsatisfactory TO many in that res
pect. The candidates wers as thick as black
berries and juns-buSs. ssd the like of hand
shaking We never saw. We were honored
with the familiar grip of-well, we won't call
names-for the twentieth time. The Grange
subject was discussed freely, but with mo- es-
pecial enthusiasm. The crowd expected 10

air their rhetoric, but dispersed late in the af-
