The State Fair.

The State fair at Howard park, Bur-
lington last week was excellent in every
respect. The heavy rain all day Wednes-
day reduced the average of attendance
considerably, but it is estimated that
$1,000 people were on the grounds Thurs
day.
The show of stock was notably good.
Merinos were exhibited by +. f. and j.
T. Stickney and f. n. Bissell of Shore
ham and Ii. G.. and l.. S. Burwell of
Bridport. Mr.. Bissell had his Galloways
and f. Burge & Son of Shoreham and
Mr.. Hammond of the Cream Hill stock
farm their Holsteins. In horses, too, the
show was large.
These are the summaries of the races
