ASHTABULA COUNTY
To the people of Ashta5ula County:
AaRIcuITuRAL socIETY.

To the people Of Asbta5uEa County:
In presenting to you the Premium List
Of the County Fair for 1880, we desire to
express our appreciation of the support the
Fair has received from the people, and
ask that they make 1t still more useful
adjunct to the Agricultural interests Of the
County.
The Directors alone cannot make the
Fair asuccess-the attendance must come
from the people, and they, too, must fur
nish the articles and animals for exhibi.
tion. The people of Ashtabula County
have the means to make the Fair second
to none in the State. No better Sheep
cattle, or horses, are found anywhere, and
the soil of this county will produce as
good grain as is raised elsewhere, and our
fruit is excellent. No farmer but has
something which excels in its kind, and
it will be found profitable to bring it to
the Fair and compare notes. The premi-
ums will pay the expense.
Hereafter all articles and animals, ex-
cept horses in harness, can be entered free.
By thus enabling any and every one to
compete for premiums free Of expense, we
expect that the exhibition will far excel
any exhibition ever before made in the
county. The premiums are very liberal.
We are pleased to say that the growth
of the County Fair has been steady and
great for the last five years, as is shown
by the entries and receipts Of 1875 and
1870. In 1875 the entries numbered about
1900 and the receipts were $1260. In
1870 the entries numbered about $500 ar d
the receipts were $215O. This is boun-
tiful year, and we expect the entries to
number 5000 and the receipts to equal
$4,000. Why should people go out of the
county to fair when we have first class
one at home. Last year the hall was so
crowded that the Directors have added an.
other building 90 feet wide and 100 feet
long. Let this be crowded also. We call
special attention to the changes which
have been made in the rules. Rules 16,
II, is and 10 have been added
There a0iU be no horse racing this gear
or any thing objectionable
ououb lOI "a Uebu Ol CdLJlo nave Debu
erected.
The premiums on horses have been en-
tirely changed. See classes No. 9, 8 and 4,
AS the exhibition will improve so per
cent, over last year, we expect the attend.
ance viii increase in the same proportion,
as people attend the Fairs to see the exhi-
bition. May we not expect, then, that the
farmers will bring out their cattle, horses,
sheep, swine, poultry, fruit and grain, and
make the County Fair one worthy of old
AshtabulaI
We know the ladies will be on hand
with their fancy needle work, domestic
manufactures, canned fruit, flowers, etc.
We have no more interest in this than
every citizen of the county should have.

toxicating liquors, are positively prohib.

spent couple of days here en- route to Wash

bore aloft the State flag of Georgia, and some
curiosity was felt as to how they would be re-
cclved, marching under such a standard. in
thas sometimes over>seusitive city. 1t will
be reooliected what an intensely loyal hulla-
oaIoo was made when one of the white COM
panies OF Norfolk carried the Virginia fog
into the District. Tho Georgia State flas
borne by colored soldiers, as an evidence of
oisioyaIty, was entirely ignored, and the
visiting troops were allowed to faunt State
sovereignty in the faces of tho people with
lmpunity. It is a good thing to see that the
loyal Inhabitants of the District are roturu,
