A County Fair Relic.

Many delightful autumn holidays are re-
called by the old-time County fair poster
hung in the post-office for the delectation
of relic lovers. It beareth dated of Octo-
Der and 6, 1859. o. S. Howard was
president, and Austin j. Morse superinten-
dent and one of the board of nine mana
gers. K. Gorham was marshal, and fine
figure was he in that capacity. The appro-
priation for fancy and household articles
was $50, with Mrs. Kimball, Mrs. Morse
and Mrs. Roadway as committee. w. A.
Stedman then, and for about twenty years
thereafter, served as secretary and treasur-
er; Mrs. Newton was committee on bread,
both brown and white. No committee
could have lived by bread alone in those
days, for the honor of it became burden.
So many housewives made the best bread
that perhaps the fair funds at S1.j0 per
loaf did not hold out to pay, for that fea-
ture was soon discontinued.
The County fair this year is to be held
on President E. c. Benedict's grounds, and
the general committee to appoint the vari-
Gus committees, etc, are Mr.. Benedict, j.
NJ. Moore and g. b. johnson.

and general testimony as to the efficacy of the
