Among the premiums awarded at
our late County Fair was one to MIR.
S. H. Turner for his celebrated Horse
Shoe Bod Spring. The fact that this
spring took the premium over other
springs exhibited goes to show that
the spring is all that MIR. Turner, the
patentee and manufacturer, claims
for it and is corroboration of the
good Judgment of the community
where sales have been making rapid
~ for some months. The spring
takes because it is an honest spring
and has the important points of ex-
cellence.

enable their publishers to make
them first class, but VIC hopo to see
