The fair passed off in very satisfactory
manner. The weather was fine, and every
body in good humor. The show of stock
was good. better than last year. The
vegetables shown were of better size
though the variety was not so great as
last year Many mammoth specimens
were on exhibition. The display of fruit
was excellent. proving that our farmers
are taking more interest in oreharding than
formerly The ladies made a good exhi-
bition of useful and ornamental articles in
their department.
Drawing of oxen dre,c the attention OF
the spectators in the forenoon, and in the
afternoon horse trot and foot race made
excitement and fun for the Juveniles and
otlsr boys and girls.
