HIGH PRAISE FOR NEwTowN FAIR.
A large number attended the New

ing to help this young association to get
a good standing among the fair assocIa-

perience the exhibits were good, being
especially strong in poultry and veg
etables, also the general management
was very creditable. There are some
points that could be improved without
expense or much trouble, which no doubt
with many others will come along with
experience. the attendance was all
that could be expected. With an in
crease In the number and variety of the
exhibits another year will lead to an IT,
crease in the attendance and interest of
the general public.
