The State Fair.
The S2d Annual Exhibition OF the State
Agricultural Society will open on the So
ciety's permanent grounds, on Monday,
September 22d, and will continue for
five days. The grounds Of this Society
are without question the best adapted and
best equipped for exhibition purposes of
any fair grounds in the East. They are
located on the Pennsylvania Railroad be-
tween Newark and Elizabeth and only
eleven miles from New York. They are
easy of access by steam railroads from
any points in the State. The officers OF
the Society give US full assurance that the

surpass any previous fair held by this
Society. If this is so and we have no

classification of stock, goods and produce
on these fair grounds, Is one of its most
popular features, both for the exhibitors
| as well as for the visitors. On reaching
the grounds, all live stock, farm, garden
and orchard products are allotted to their
| proper departments. The different de-
partments are under the charge Of COM
petent superintendent, who are held re-
| sponsible to the officers of the Society for
their skillful management. The State
Society has always been patronized by
| the best breeders OF the best horses, neat
and thoroughbred cattle, sheep, swine

farm, garden and orchard products will
be found properly classified in their re-
spective places, and so arranged as to
| give the visitors ample facilities TO ex-
anime these various products Of the soil
of our State. Extra efforts have been
made this year to enlarge the display OF
