county, Pa, opening on Monday, Aug.
30, and closing Friday, Sept. 2, 1881.
This will be the only agricultural exhi-
bition of general Importance in eastern

the State Agricultural Society has decid-

ly expect that members of oranges and
farmers clubs in Pennsylvania, West

New Jersey, New York and Ohio will
prepare liberal samples of their agricul-
tural products for exhibition at the tri-
state picnic, and we also hope to have
contributions from every state in the
Union.
This will be the largest meeting of
farmers ever held in the United States,
and it is important that the show of
agricultural products shall be on grand
scale, commensurate with the attend
ance of the people.

chinery, Implements, musical instru-
