TnE FAIR.-The seventh ANIMAL exhibition
OF the Carroll County Agricultural Society
opened on Tuesday and closed on Thursday.
The attendance was fair, but not equal to
what it has been heretofore. The horse,
cattle, sheep, swine and poultry departments
were well filled. The ladies department fell
below its usual standard; the products Of the
farm and garden were never SO full, and th e
display of fruit was excellent. Very little
! machinery was on exhibition, but it was of a
superior class. The racing attracted consid
cradle attention. On Wednesday there were
five Brass Bands present-Copperyill Cornet
Band, uniontown Brass Band, Frikzellsburg
Band, a colored Brass Band from Newport,
and a colored Brass Band from Sans Greek.
On Thursday there were two bands present.
Owing 10 the crowded condition of our col.
umns we are compelled to defer the publica-
: ton Of the Premiums awarded until next week.

ADVERTISING SALEs.-A newspaper is read
by hundreds who never see the attractive bills
which are posted in the taverns and the store
rooms. Every subscriber to paper reads
all such advertisements carefully lie knows
who is selling out and exactly what is offered
for sale The advertisements are topic Of
conversation when friends meet, and arrange.
ments made for attending the sales. The
result is large crowd, spirited bidding and
a realization of ten, twenty or fifty times what
1t cost to advertise. No money is so sure to
return a large profit as that spent on printers
ink A single additional bidder on single
article will pay all il costs to advertise a sale
of personal property in newspaper. Isl
