The Fair.

AS - oAA'
Every one is talking about the Fair, and
the young are saving pennies for popcorn
and peanuts. The grounds have been dress
ed up in gala style, and even the tree
trunks have been swept down for the &C.
commodatlon OF the guests. The new cat
tie sheds look very nice with their brown
single roofs and neat white stalls, and
more than half of them are now taken up
with promised exhibits. Mr.. H. G. Otis, of
Clifton, Va, will have fine herd of Hol-
stems. Samuel Blunt and VIM. E. Mum
caster will show their well known herds of
producing Jerseys, and Mr.. Blunt will have
also lot of Swiss, of which breed there are
only about a dozen herds in the United
States.
The hog show will be even finer than
when prominent man in the State re.
marked that it was the best hog exhibit he
had seen at any Fair in Maryland. Mr.. II.
B. Witter, of Frederick, will have ten pens
OF Chester whites. Milton Farm Berkshires
are becoming we'll known in the county,
and Mr.. j. @. Bentley will have number
of Poland Chinas, besides numerous smaller
exhibits of one or two pens each in each
breed.
OF Poultry it is thought that the grounds
will almost be too small to hold them. The
chickens come mostly from Frederick coun-
ty, where there are numbers of tanciers.
Really our county people could clean up
the poultry premiums, but they have gotten
out of the way of bringing the feathered
farm folks in to show somehow.
MIR. W.. G. Gosling has charge of the dog
show, so it may be expected to be equal to
that OF last year, if not better. We have the
only dog show of any Fair in the State and
it is well worth seeing.
In addition to the cavalcade on Wednes-
day and Thursday mornings, when all teams,
horses and colts will be shown, there will
be on Thursday test of Il chemical fire en-
CINE, in practical way. This will. be made
by MIR. II. M. Kingsley
On Friday morning at II O'clock an ad-
dress will be made by Carl Brown, the COM
mander of the Commonweal Army, who
will exhibit his famous political charts, so
often spoken OF by the newspapers. This
will be chance to see one Of the most
noted characters in the United States, which
should be missed by no one.
