THE NEW ENGLAND FAIR.

already been made. The Maine breeders of
fine cattle desire to see large entries from the
other States as they believe that the cattle raised
in Maine are as good any In the country.
Hon. j. X. Bodwell, of the firm of Bodwel &
Bureigh, of Hallowell, one of the largest i'm
porters of fine bred cattle in the country is
enthusiastic over the success of the New Eng
land Fair, and says that the exhibit of cattle at
this fair will be the finest ever seen in the
world. The splendid cattle of Messrs. Bodwell
u Burleigh will be an attraction in themselves.
Probably no man in New England is better
posted on cattle than Mr. Bodwell. Improve
ments at the Maplewood Park will now be
rapidly pushed, and everything done to make
the fair great success. A large number of
very fine horses have already arrived at the
park.
