streets in one string, 10 pairs of Steers,
and 40 other cattle, including some Ak

IL FLORAL & VEGETABLE Hall.
The display was extraordinary, We
think that we have never seen a finer
one, in garden vegetables. Bects, Tur-
nips and potatoes. Oh My! There
were several turnips that would GER
tainly measure SO inches in circumfer-
cncc. Phen there We're Cabbages, On
ions, Carrots, Parsnips, Watermellons,
Squashes, Pumpkins, in short every
thing, that could be grown and the
best and finest.
In the line of fruits there was abund-
ance and some fine and choice varieties.
THE LADIES DEPARTMENT
was exceedingly creditable. Here we
noticed novelty that attracted much at
tention, potato dressed as an old lady
and seated in chair. There We're some
handsome exhibits of cut flowers and
in the lien of fancy work the display
was so large that we despair of enumer-
alton, suffice it to say that it reflected
much credit upon the workers who pro-
duced it.
In the Miscellaneous department we
noticed our friend Landman with his
unrivaled New Home Sewing Ma
chine. S. o. Davis exhibited one of
his sapholders, while they were various
articles of miner importance.
We herewith append list of premi-
ums as far az we were able to obtain
