The directors of the Fairfield county fair are making every exertion to make their June meeting an interesting and successful affair. They expect to show some very nice horses, and as necessary result-very fine trotting. They also count on good show of bicyclists. they offering two prizes, a gold and silver medal for competition of amateurs on Wednesday, the 28th and two premiums, one of $5o the other $25,to professionals on Thursday, the 29th.
 The prospects for crops in Middlesex county is thus predicated The severe and protracted drought of last year killed the grass roots in many fields, and only for fa- vorable spring the crop would be small, but the frequent rains have done much to repair the damage done last year, and there is 8 prospect of an average hay crop. Potatoes are backward, though some fields look very good Potato bugs are prompt and attentive to business, and nothing but free use of poison will be likely to prevent large crop of these pests. There will be no peaches but there Is g. good showing for pears and the apple crop bids fair to be unusually large. There will be large yield of strawberries, but of the other small fruits it is yet too ear Iy to speak with any certainty. Rye, also, is looking very well and though the season is late there is a prospect of good crops of farm produce, which is quite cheering.
