brought from the farm OF ''Long John
Wentworth" of Chicago. Charles Hall
has some graded Short Horns and natives
which are simply immense in size, John

A large number Of the horses stalls
were locked the owners Of the horses evl-

sacred for public gaze. Norman horses
are most numerous. Some farmers have
entered a considerable number. George
Dalwig had four Of this breed; Scholten
Bros. of Kossuth had herd of six horses;

fine looking animals. A three year old
stallion, the property of Hrudka Bros. OF

MACHINERY
| The absence of the farm machinery last
year deprived the fair of a pleasing fea-
ture. All the agents have gone in this
year to do their best and the sinner circle
is humming with industry. The John
ston Harvesters and Mowers are under
the management of @. J. Shove. Madison
& Anderson have large display, having
the Mccormick and the Plano to look
after La addition they have feed mills
and cutters in operation. Lehmkuhl &
Dicke present for consideration the Cham
pion self-binders and mowers. Wagner
Hardware Co. show the good points of
| the Deering manufacture. A one horse
mower of this manufacture attracts con-
siderable attention. Wallschlaeger & Sons
show the Empire Light Steel Binder and
mower.
Cal Carey has windmill whose arms
are constantly on the move. It seems to
be an improvement on the old style.
The Smalley Manufacturing Co. have a
field full of machinery, feed cutters large
and small, horse powers, feed mills plows
etc. The exhibit of this company is parti-
cularly fine. There is no place in the
Fair Gounds at which farmer can put
in time more proftably than at the
machinery quarters. All the machinery
is in operation and fair knowledge OF
relative merits OF machines may be gather
ed. Besides there is something new. For
instance, a discharrow shown by the
Standard Manfg. Co of Dayton, cannot
fail to suggest to farmers the advantages
OF such harrow. This company besides
exhibits mower.
The exposition building is we'll filed
this year with many articles of merit.
Schuette Bros. make a magnificent dis
play, far exceeding anything of the kind
ever before attempted here. "A large paw
| iliuu with portiorres is arranged with a
miniature representation OF the firms
store, lighted up as night scene. Win
ter and summer are represented in the
foreground, and figures bearing clothing
Appropriated the season are shown.
o. Torrison &:Co. have. also pavilion
and make a display of Ladies goods.
Becker & Teitgen exhibit carriages sleighs
and robes; Lehmkuhl & Dicke organs and
sewing machines, Madison & Anderson
exhibit the Davis sewing machine which
seems to have special features OF excel
lence. A. Bleser has also a fine line of
sewing machines. John Nespor has some
fine monuments and marble top tables.
Piening & Fechter have fine exhibition
of pictures and frames. Tillson & Schmidt
have an exceptionally fine number of car
riages on exhibition.
The art department is particularly good
this year. Melendy & Packard have out
done themselves. Two fine paintings in
| oil by Frank Bresler are greatly admired.
Henry Greve has large number of col
ored eggs. The colors are variegated
and the designs fine. The Ladies de-
partment contains the usual miscellany
articles entirely beyond the comprehen-
sion of the average masculine mind.
The absence of fakirs is a sore disap-
pointment to many though the chance
given to mash negroes head with an
egg makes some amends for the de-
privatian.
In the green trotting race Morgan's
colt won handsomely, though five heats
had to be trotted to determine the win
ner.
