PREPARE FOR THE FAIR.-The fol.
lowing clipped from one of our State
exchanges, is applicable TO our ap.
preaching Fair: Farmers neglect a
great opportunity by giving little or
no attention to the various agricul.
tural Fairs held in the late summer
and autumn. These Fairs may be
made great helps towards improved
methods of agriculture, and the real
ization ofgreat profits from it. Their
purpose is to show what can be done
when farmers do their best, and to
compare the results of each others
labor. AS an additional feature, we
have general collection of such
things as are new and useful in agri.
culture-implements, tools, vehicles,
machinery, seeds, fertilizers, &c. To
become acquainted with these is Of
the greatest use to those engaged in
farming. Their value consists not
SO much in the fact that they are
new as that they may be of the most
serviceable character. For instance,
if with the old.fashioned tools one
may do a certain amount of work in
one day and with an improved one
he may do five times as much, it is
of the greatest interest to know this
fact. But the principle advantage
accruing from these Fairs arse from
the opportunity of preparing andex-
hibiting some products Of unusually
excellent quality, or of seeing SINH.
lar products shown by other farmers.
The greatest profit promised by the
agriculture of the future may be look
ed for from improved methods by
which, while cost is reduced, the
quantity and quality of the crop are
greatly increased. Every farmer
may do something in this way in the
effort to improve his condition; and
what he does he may very well show
to others, from a pardonable personal
pride, as well as with a view to pro,
cure some profit from it, He may
for instance prepare some improved
stock, or plant and cultivate some
improved crop for exhibition; grow
u very clean crop of seed grain by
carefully removing every week; or in
many other ways that will readily
occur to him to do something of this
kind. But let something be done,
and the time for making prepara-
tions and for doing this is now.
