| anu Jul. 1AO III 81 Ody was utfOttu 10 tuc us
play of stock, produce and fancy articles, the
second day to the trotting of horses
The attendance was good, but not so much
money was taken at the gate as last year.
The show of stock was larger and better than
upon any former occasion. VIM. Black & Son
had the largest display, thirty head of oxen.
Mr. Fred Grant had on exhibition a monster OK
which girted nine feet. Willard Low had a
pair of trained steer calves that would perform
almost any trick required of them. Charlie.
Conant had the largest display of agricultural
implements. Parker & Otis from the stock
farm, Belfast, exhibited their fine herd of Here
fords which has taken premiums at state fairs
The show of fowls was good, particularly the
Plymouth Rocks by c. C. Whitcomb, of Dix
mont, and Franklin Chase, of Monroe.
The display in the hall was very large. A.
b. Strattard's showing of apples, produce, flow
ers, &C., was perhaps the best.
The ladies' department was full, which shows
that they have as much interest in the work as
the men. Among the fancy work noticeable
was the pen work of John S. Staples, of Mon
roe
The Grand Stand has been enlarged to double
its former seating capacity, new cattle sheds
erected and other improvements made which
places the Monroe grounds in advance of any
in this vicinity.
The Monroe band was in attendance and dis
coursed fine music. There was no gambling
on the grounds and the best of order prevailed.
