Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1895-09-13
The Agricultural Fair.


largely devoted to the reception of stock,
arranging OF exhibits and other preliminary
work. The grounds, buildings, stables and
stock-pens were all In first-class condition,
for which the officers and managers of the
Society deserve much credit. The track
had also been put in fine condition for the
trials of speed. The display of horses cat
tie, sheep and hogs has never been exceled
in the history of the Society In the poul.
try department there was magnificent ex.
hibition of rare birds, both from this and
adjoining counties. The exhibition in the
hall was of superior character, embracing
fruits, vegetables, preserves, canned goods,
Jellies, bread, cakes, fancy work, pictures,
musical Instruments, ard fine display OF
growing plants and cut flowers. The races
were fine, and were the principal point of
attraction during the afternoon of each day
The attendance on each of the three days
was good, that of Thursday being consid.
cred the largest ever seen on the grounds
numbering about 10000 The only draw
back to the perfect success of the exhibition
was the heavy rain storm on Friday morn
ing which necessitated the closing one day
earlier than was anticipated. A fine racing
programme had been arranged for that day
and the attendance would doubtless have
been large.
Below will be found a full schedule of
the races and partial list of premiums -
The remaining list of premiums will appear
next week.
