HORSE TROTTING AT THE COITN
TX FAIR.

There seems to be d difference of
opinion as to the propriety of horse
racing at the annual fair Of the county
agricultural society. The prime object
OF the annual show and fair is to pro-
mote the interests Of agriculture.
Those who love the excitement of the
race course claim the excitement draws
the crowd; that a large number who
go to see the trotting would not 60 to
see the fine show OF orchard, garden
and field products. The finely proper
toned and beautifully formed bodies
Iof herds Of Ayrshire, Devon OF Short
horn have no charms for their ewes.
1t the crowd, who would not 60 to the
| fair unless there were trotting, staid at
home the society could not pay it's pre-
miums at par. On the other hand it
is claimed that where trotting is made
q feature Of annual fairs experience
shows it becomes the main feature i:
that all other features are made Subor-
dinate to 1T, and eventually the fair
.degcnerates into an agricultural horse
t?ot. There is no doubt q great love
of excitement exists in the human
mind. The question is, Is it wise to
feed this love Of excitement? The
mind grows on what it feeds. In what
direction will the mind grow and de-
velOp from this excitement? Every
one knows there is connected with
horseracing' betting and cheating, all
of which adds to the excitement and
draws the kind of Il crowd who relish
that kind Of excitement. Intelligent
farmers see this; if they attend the
fair they can not help seeing it. They
know the excitement Of the racing at
tracts the attention Of the crowd from
the more quiet but valuable features.
Of the exhibition. If they bring to the
fair the richest products of the field
and the choicest of their herds they
may attract the notice of o few aged
and old-fashioned farmers but the
crowd are found watching the fast
horses with bated breath while the
drivers with whip and voice are urging
their horses to a cruel speed with as
much distressing vehemence. as if the
lives, health and fortunes Of the spec
tators depended OH second Of time.
