Carnival week, also a very good
county fair, the first thing of the
kind we have had for a long time.
The live stock exhibit surprised
us all. There were about $50
animals entered. and some of
them of very fine quality. We
are glad to see our people taking
interest in live stock. There
we're entered one herd Of cattle
consisting of thoroughbred
Hereford bull. two cows aud six
grade heifers; and a herd Of
Short Horns consisting OF one
bull, two COWS aud several year.
lIngs. These were entered as
herds OF beef cattle. One herd
took the prize. Onc of our local
