The reports from those of our
people who attended, was that the
Parish Fair held at Breaux Bridge
last Sunday. was a grand success.
The exhibits were numerous and
demonstrated what good and in
telligent cultivation will produce
in this country, where the lands
are Of fertility that is almost in
credible, that under good and fa-
vorable condition. surprise our own
people in the result of production.
This year was an ordinary occur
renee to see at the different mills,
cane of ten and twelve feet long
and Of very large size weighing
from eight to twelve pounds. The
attendance at the FAIR was also
very large, and people for miles
around could be seen there who
seemed to take the greatest of in.
terest in the large display of exhi-
bits. Such local Fairs are bound
to produce good results, as it sti-
mulates the planters and other
