-EDDYvILLE FAIR

to say 1t was a success would be
putting it mildly. The exhibits
were all good-better than ex-
pected on account of this being
a backward season. The baby
contest was fine. There were
ten of as good babies as one
would find any where; and the
dinner was plentiful and any,
one missing it missed a treat.
And then came the amusements
which lasted all the afternoon,
with various wild west stunts.
But the capturing and burning of
the emigrant wagon was real
and worthy of all the applause
given.
And the side shows were very
good and we'll patronized and
the management of the fair
wishes to thank one and all who
helped so faithfully to make the
fair the success it was and also
wishes to thank the people of
Toledo and other places for
their patronage and in behalf
of Buffalo Lemon wish to thank
all the boys who helped him in
his part of the entertainment.
There is part of the exhibit
that ought to-have special men,
ton first is the potato display
which was the largest of any
and as fine a lot of spuds as any
one would wish to look at.
There were large and small red
white and blue ones; and the
apple display was good but not
as extensive as last year on ac-
count of poor season for fruit
And Mrs. j. j. Pepins carrot dis
play-she had carrots cooked
