DOVER, Del, Sept. 2o.-To- days at
tendance exceeded five thousand and the
fair grounds presented All ANNA ap-
pearance all day. The races were tie
most exciting that have yet been given,
and the exhibits attracted their share of
attention.
The agricultural machinery depart
ment, which was OF no account at all
the first day, has improved somewhat,
though 1t is not what it should be, by
any means. The meagreness of this de-
partment 10 due to the dissatisfaction of
the exhibitors with the location of the
machinery department, which is in the
northwest corner of the grounds, In q
remote and isolated position. Efforts
will be made TO have this complaint
remedied next year, 90 that this impor-
tant department OF the fair may be
largely represented.
The machinery exhibits comprise q
Wood self binder, three wheat rakes by
J. Il. Thomas & Son, Springfield, Ohio,
mower and tive reapers by W. +. Lip
pincott, Woodstown, N. j., and q Rob-
erts' thresher by j. q. Smith, of Willow
Grove, Del. The last exhibit, and some
thing entirely new in this Slate, con.
sists Of five patent manure carts, shown
by the Kemp n Burpee Manufacturing
Company of Syracuse, N. Y. These
carts are provided with a pulverizing
apparatus, attached to the wheels, which
pulverizes the manure before spreading
1t. These carts attracted considerable
attention from q number of farmers.
The Art Gallery, on the second floor
of the cereal building, is quite an at
tractive resort, the exhibits being of a
fine character, and tastefully arranged.
The pavilion above the art gallery ia
cool and breezy at all times, and on
this account is resorted TO by large
numbers.
