adjourn.

Free street fairs are rapidly taking the
place of county fairs in this and many
other states and their popularity is ac-
knowledged by all who have had the
good fortune to attend one of them.
The matter has been brought to the at
tention Of our merchants with the re-
suit of considerable interest being mani
tested in the project. The editor of this
paper was in Cadillac last Saturday and
while there secured much valuable in
formation as to the manner of conduct
ing these fairs, very successful one
being held in that place last fall. The
most feasible plan it seems would be to
call meeting of the citizens, appoint the
several committees, settle upon some
date in the fall, and then proceed to
work. The first week in October would
be the best time for holding the fair un-
doubtedly as it would not conflict with
the fair at Ithaca.
