Universal kicking last year is re
placed with universal praise this year
| for the feeding service at the fair
ground last week under the manage
ment of Col. Thos. Harmon with Col.
| III. +. Talyor to assist. 1t was good
/ throughout and remarkably so consid-
ering the arms length way in which
everything had to toe done. Over $500
was taken in, and fair profit turned
over to the association: but better
than all was the emphasis which it
added TO the expression well used
of exhibitors and visitors. Such re-
suits cannot be expected whore the
privilege is sold and the buyer with
! the heavy expenditure he must make
anyway and the risk he must run Of
rainy days, left to save himself by
cutting down the quality of the food
and service. 1t is good policy for the
association 10 make less profit from
this source if it can make sure Of
pleasing the people AS it has done this
year.

| have left the shop room short. \ new
switch is being put III on Western

cnt track between Johnson's house and
the aqueduct. This will reduce the
running time from the bridge by three
minutes and will allow a slower rate
on Nam street. During the week
bettermcnts have been made on the
track putting in tie rods and yard rails
on the corners, new switch at the
car house and general oyerhauling and
repairs ready for the winter, though
