tized to induce capitalists to invest
in our minerals and rich deposits
of marbles, &c.
Millions upon millions of capt.
tai is constantly hell ready for in
vestment. 1t will only be neces-
sary to properly ad Fertise our re-
sources to bring the hum of ma
chinely and the whistle of the
railroad engine.
The most efficien / means to do
this beyond all question is the or
ganization and successful action of
the citizens in establishing an an
nual Fair.
An opportunity has been offered
them which they should not fail to
seize mon promptly
They are now offered Stock in
a company to be organized for the
purpose of developing the resour-
ces of our county in the most eff
cient manner. THIS Stock or
Shares in the capital of the COM
pany will be by no means a mere
donation, but with proper manage
ment it will always be worth its
face in hard dollars, and as is Of
ten the case, it will ultimately be
sought at a premium. Now is the
time, get in on the ground floor.
The real estate which will be
necessarily purchased by the COM
pany will be greatly enhanced in
value. The gate money, the en-
trance fees, the rents for stables
and stands; money received for
privileges, &c, will be- amply sufi-
cient to defrsy current expenses,
and leave sinking fund for the
future contingencies.
Every citizen who holds a Share
of Stock becomes all interested
party, whose aid may be relied
upon to give the enterprise sue
cess.
There is not a single permanent
residen. of the county but may be-
come interested and benefited by
a properly managed annual fair.
The farmer especially, once he
understands the true objects and
merits of the association; will be-
come its warmest advocate. Hs
will find a great many things to
excite his ambition. He will be
inducad 70 cnmneta- for the nrizes
I'd lands viii be
better cultivated: his fruit trees
will be of improved varieties; his
trees will be pruned and better
cared for; his seed corn, oats,
wheat, millet, rye, &C., will be Sc
Iecfad with greater care. and his
garden will be no longer
his calf pasture.
His wife and daughters will be
stimulated to a laudable rivalry in
producing the best of everything
upon the varied list of articles for
which prizes or honor are offered
by the Fair Association, in the Ia
dies department.
The stock man will be afforded
a fine opportunity to exhibit his
improved stock, not only to his
neighbors, but to interested par
ties from abroad. A market will
be found at home especially for
winners of purses or prizes.
The high prices PAID will stimu-
late to to the endeavor. to excel in
quality and be the means of i'm
proving the breeds of all kinds of
stock.
Aside from the great advanta-
ges enumerated above, there will
be vast amount of fun to be en-
joyed by all. The old and the
young will take a deer interest in
contests for purses and prizes. An
opportunity given to! make our
people better acquainted with each
other, and better satisfied with the
country, which is now and for the
future to be their homes. Let us
have the fair; it will he an honor

1t seems that the DEMoCRAT-STAR
is a good medium of information.
Three weeks since | asked the
meaning of level. Many answers
we're sent in, one of which you
published. Strange TO say, many
of them differed materially. If
Prof. Foster is correct, and think
he is, then a level line or surface is
not a straight line or surface, but a
curred line or surface. In fact, a
level is a circle, as the earth'S sur
face is IA circle.
