FARMERS, FESTIVALS.
State Physiological Exhibition.
THIRD DAY.

WATERvILLE, Oct. 5, 1876
The rainy weather to-day has prevented
what otherwise would have been full attend
ance at the exhibition; as it is the attendauc,
has been very small. But the committees hay,
been busily engaged and we are enabled to Civ,
below the awards, which with what was SEN
last night give the entire list
We have been thus particular because, as We
said yesterday, greater importance attaches
itself to this show than to any of former years
A beautiful show of Gladioli by Miss Moses
Getchell of Winslow has been added since my
report yesterday.
The collection for the Centennial exhibition
will be made from all parts of the state rep
resented at the show.
The president and executive committee have
been busily engaged making up the collection
We feel that mention should be made of two OF
this committee who have labored hard, not on.
ly to make good exhibition but also to give
every one all the information desired; we refer
to Samuel Rolfe. Esq, of Portland, and j. A.
Varney Esq, of Vassalboro. To the officers Of
