seems to await our Fair. We will
welcome all E. City to our exhibition

We have recently received several
very complimentary letters concern
ing the FISHERMAN AND FARMER, all
of which are highly GRATIFYING. 1t
always buoys one up to renewed en-
ergv to know that his efforts are APP
preciated. Had we space we would
publish the letters received.
Our friends, speaking of the Fair,

the country or, some distance removed
from the town limits. We desire to
inform them that the property on which
the fair will be held belongs to the
town and borders on Main Street not
distant from the remotest point of the
town more than three fourths of mile. |
