UNITY. 1t is doubtful if the North Waldo
Agricultural Society will hold any fair at
Unity this fall. Mr. Reynolds, who owns
the grounds, and the fair people, cannot
seem to agree on the financial part of the
question. Frank Bartlett of Unity offered
to build half-mile track and fix the same
up in first class manner and lease it to the
society, but nothing was done in regard to
the,matter and if satisfactory arrangements
cannot be made with Mr.. R. no fair will be
held.
