Tcd what You Expect to Exhibit.
In order TO arouse interest in the
exhibits let every one who intends to
make an exhibit say SO through the
columns of The PRoGREss. and tell of
what nature it will be.
This we think will be a good idea
for several reasons. To begin with it
will arouse interest among the people
generally. having a tendency to show
off the coming event TO good adyan-
tage, presenting it in favorable
light and advertising in advance some
of tho most interesting attractions
In the next instance it will induce
others who have stock, agricultural
products II whatever may be the ma
tion of the exhibit, to enter into COM
petition, thereby guaranteeing more
care in preparing the objects exhibit
ed and thus insure the very best dis
play possible of the kind,
Then again it will incite others who
may not have intended to do SO, for
several reasons, to take part, thus
adding to the success of the exposi-
tion
1t will be borne in mind that stren-
uous complaints have been made by
those who did exhibit that they had
no competition and that the
preparation was dead expense,their
not even getting the benefit of an ad-
yertisement of their exhibits. Their
dissatisfaction has become so marked
that in the matter of several things,
stock as we'll as horticultural and sg-
ricultural products, those who have
been in the habit Of making exhibits
have declared their intention to do 80
no more for the reason assigned, that
they have no competition and it does
not pay to prepare. ~rcSnsTta i.i,
But if every one who intends to make
an exhibit will say, so stating what
it il and what class, all this will be
avoided and then every one will know
in advance whether it will he neces-
