ARKANSAS AGRICULTURAL AND
MECHANICAL ASSOCIATION.

We are indebted to some thought
full friend for the premium list and
rules and regulations governing this
Association, which is now approach
ing its Eleventh annual exhibition.
This will take place at Monticello on
the 21st proximO, and will continue
three days. The list is both full and
well adapted to all the section of
county designated as South Arkansas
and North Louisiana. The parishes
belonging to the Association aud FORM
ing a district arc-West Carroll, More
house, Union and Ouachita, and these
parishes are well represented among
the offices. The pleasure and worth of
such associations are far reaching and
inestimablc, and the fact that the
Southeast Arkansas Fair has been in
successful existence eleUe,s years is a
conclusive ansWscr to the oft-rcpeatcd,
intolerable objection against their Or
ganization that they cannot be made
permanent. Something like this must
be inausurated and established in the
Ouachita Valley if our people would
advance, or remain even as they are.
