 the exhibition. This year there was nothing except indifference to prevent large attendance and an extensive exhi- bition. It was free show. The busi- ness men in this village pad nearly all the expenses. Two farmers paid $1 each and did it cheerfully and also aided the enterprise by making an exhibit. After the business men had made provision for this free exhibition it seems rather unkind in some farmers not to encour- age the enterprise to the extent of bring ing their live stock to it. There is live stock enough in this town alone to make grand exhibition, and if the farmers could only realize what benefit it would be to them to get together one day in year, exhibit their live stock, compare notes and transact business together we are sure they would patronize these an nual exhibitions.
 If any one can reap any benefit from these exhibitions certainly the farmers can, and in future they must pull to- gether or put their shoulders to the wheel or the enterprise will be aban- doned. The great majority of farmers present came to see or be seen; at least they failed to bring hoof to the exhi bition. But the minority who did make an exhibit are deserving of much praise and we trust they will directly and indi- rectly reap benefit from exhibiting their live stock, agricultural implements and merchandise.
 There were plenty of people in at tendance and considerable property changrd hands, and many sales will yet grow out of the exhibition. Quite number neglected to record their exhib- it's, but THE NEWS succeeded in collect ing the following
