We don't print the Fair catalogue,
this year. Wewere underbids5. In
one sense it was economy to take the
lower bid, in another it was losing
game, for the newspaper office is ex-
pected to do a good deal of free ad.
vertising for the Fair, and had wegot
tie printing, we would have devoted
a good deal Of space to it, and
lin the end would have published the
award Of premiums free. Now the
Board could hardly ask us, in decency,
to devote our paper to drumming up
a big crowd for the Fair. We shall
do for the success of the Fair, that
which duty as journalist requires
of us, and nothing more. The Fair
this year promises to be the best one
ever held, the premiums have been
greatly increased; and we hope every
person in the county, will take a
pride in preparing something for ex.
hibition, and make, this Fair, supe.
rior to anything Of tile kind in the
State.
