was received this morning from
the Robson plantation. in Louisi-
ana, stating that herd of twelve
Aberdeen Angus cattle from that
place will be sent to the State Fair.

from the United States department
of agriculture. The dairy industry
has enjoyed a remarkable growth
in the State during the past year.

SEWARD WINS.


 One of the closest and most inter- esting games of the season ended last night by victory for Seward over the Federals in the last half of the last inning by score of 3, not out to A. Both sides were even for a great part of the game but a few errors, and in the most unexpected quarters, lost the game for the foreigners near the end. Nickerson and Manthey and Darlington and Burley were the bat teries. The game provided lots of en- tertainment for the spectators and 1t is hoped there will be more of it. An impression gained last night by many is that Nickerson shows up better and better all the time as a good all-round man.
