ENTRIES FoR THE Fm.-Itis well
for farmers, mechanics, and all 9th
ers to bear in mind the regulations Of
the approaching fair. But little
more time remains for entries to
be made. Persons intending to e.
hibit should give immediate at
tcntion to their entries, thus CIV
ing more full opportunity to cor
rect errors, if any be made, as well as
relieving the Office of Secretary Of
tha. excessive strain which usually
falls upon the last few days of enter
ins when dilatory ones make u rush
upcn him. Whether the display at
the Fair will be full and interesting
depends entirely upon the number
and character Of the entries. And.
these depend more upon the spirit OF
the people who are interested IN the
success of the Fair. Heretofore Ma
son county has been given the credit
Of having the best county exhibition
in the State. and comparing favora-
blv with most of the State Fairs oil
the Union. Let the people resolve to
make it still better this year. There
is already gratifying evidence that
the Fair will be very full. There is
every probability Of 4 much larger
exhibition of fine stock Of all kinds
than there was last year. Some Of
the crops are Of superior excellence.
Wheat is not so good as usual, but is
good enough to make very respect
able showing in this Department.
The fruit crop being an entire fall
urc not much can be expected in this
department. In canned fruits, jcl-
lies and preserves, the ladies may be
at a loss what to do. Many Of them,
perhaps, have a supply from last
wear of these articles, which the Di-
rcctors have decided they may enter.
50 those who have may bring them
Oh. If our mechanics will take a
lively interest in the matter by en-
tcring the products Of their skill and
industry, they can make Il fine dis
play, and add much to the interest Of
the exhibition, and excite to greater
excellence. We have no doubt that
in the departmental grains the show
will be very rich. It will afford cx-
ccllcnt opportunity for inspecting
seeds and deciding upon the kinds to
he used next year. There atcvcry
fair 4 lively business in the way Of
such selections and sales. We hope
farmers will give careful attention to
the exhibition of grains. Mechanics
too, in displaying :hcir products, Of
ten dispose of the articles on exlIibi-
ton, direct attention to their factor
les and shops, ard make numbers Of
good customers. So is it with every
body who have anything to SELL
The good farmer, mechanic, artizan,
merchant and labo:er, will take an
interest in the Fair, by entering
whatever will add to its interest and
success, and to their profit. We do
not care to enumcrate the ways in
which the Fair may be made useful.
Such a work would require more time
and space than We can give. And
after all 1t would be ONO use to those
who have not the spirit to enter into
the show with the purpose of extract
ing good from it, or more liberal,
with 4 further design of adding to
it, excellence.
In conclusion, We ask the people to
give every assistance to the Fair, by
entering articles and by attending it
every day. The Fair commences on
September 18th and ends on the cv-
enlng Of Deter lst. The first day no
admission fee is charged at the gate;
that day being occupied in the ar
ranging Of entries.
Parties wanting, in considerable
quantities, any goods usually found at
drug Stores, will be dealt with libcr-
