fairs ever held in Botetourt. Several
thousand persons were present yesterday
The largest crowd was present on thurs;
day, when there was between 3.0CO ana
4 900. The displays in all the departments
were better and larger than they have
been for the last eight years. In the

the ladies was shown TO great advantage.
The chief feature in this department was
five different displays for the largest ana
best collection of fancy work. which was
won by Miss Lucy Zimmerman. who had
eighty-odd pieces in her collection.
The space allotted to the exhibit of fruits
and flowers, butter and preserves, wines.
breads, cakes, pickles, &C.. was one OF the
most freuuented in the building, and the
rivalry here was as great as i'll any other
department. One of the best displays IN
this department was the variety OF cakes
marble. chocolate, white and nut cakes
made by Miss Mamie Mcdowell, OF this
place.
BorEToURT's PRODUCTIVE SOIL.

bles shows the productiveness OF Bote,
tonrt county soil. and our farmers and
gardeners may well feel proud OF the
creditable showing made IN this depart
ment.
The exhibition of stock. both cattle an d
horses, was good. and shows conclusiVely
that IN the last eleven years the stock OF
this county has increased leo per cent.
The poultry was good, aud larger VI,
riety of the feathered tribe was EXHIBITED
than ever before.
The races were better than ever before,
that for 2-year-old colts icing one of the
