large attendance OF young folks All
the departments are well filed and the
contest for the special premiums has
brought many fne exhibits. The
cereal building is well filed and the
display Of grain, fruits and vegetables
far excels that OF past years. In the
ladies' building the work OF the fair
sex Is very much In evidence, Fancy
needle work, preserves, capned goods
and other artioles make this depart
ment very attractive. There is also a
large display in tho art department.
The most noticeable thing about the fair
this year is the absence OF fakirs with
their skin games" and devices to
fleece the unsuspecting farmer, who
constitutes the largest part OF the at
tendance OF the fair. OF course the
fortune-teller, the snake. charmer and
the greatest show and other mon
strosities are on hand and reap their
share OF the shekels.
The racing yesterday was good.
Henry W. Burriss Of Princess Anus
acted as judge, with Amos Cole. John
