An AuicuItural Fair.

There is a good deal of talk about hold
ing an agricultural fair at the Tazewell
Fair grounds this Fall. We are told that
Capt. Samuel Walton, who controls the
grounds, is perfectly willing to turn them
over to the farmers of the county for such
a fair.
There are great many persons in the
county who have believed that an
exhibition chiefly agricultural in character
would be successful and interesting. An
opportunity is now furnished to make a
test of their judgment. There are num-
Der of fine herds Of cattle in the county
as well as sheep and swine. A number Of
fine horses can also be shown from the
county. The fair could be held about the
first of October We suggest to our farmer
friends that they consider the matter
without delay.

the front rank of the leading papers of the
country.
