In the agricultural department the exhibit is not equal to| that of last year either in quantity or quality. The reason for this fall ing off is obvious. The Fair is several weeks earlier than last year, while the season is sev eral weeks later, and as a consequence only those localities most favored have vegetables to bring, while a great many farmers are still busy with their crops and not able to at tend. Upon the shelves of this department are very fine specimens of potatoes of different varieties and some large heads of cauliflower. An exhibit of Flat Dncfc turnips is very good while the rutabagas were nearly as large as a "claim shanty." The onions are rather ed ed. M. to the the en is in In a of 2 4 ; small in size, evidently not having attained their fall growth. Geo. D. Thomas of Gallatin Valley, prietor of the Empire Mills, has several of patent process flour on exhibition. tomatoes are of good size. There is but entry of wheat and oats which is accounted for as l efere mentioned by the backward son. Mr. Geo. Hartman, of Missoula, sent up a case of apples picked from orchard ,in which is to be seen the red astri can, red june, ladies blush and the transcend ent crab. A creamer manufactured by Cooly, of lows.Falls, Vermont, for which Mr. T. cox is agent, is on exhibition. It is contrived in a very simple manner and gives excellent satisfaction. The milk is poured into large tin cans and submerged water. There are pipes for the introduction of water for its escape. By the use of this cooler the cream is raised in twelve hourse. POULTRY DEPARTMENT. Here there are a number of chickens different varieties, brown, dark, and light Brahmas, some very pretty Leghorns game bantams. There are three cages doves and pigeon? of different colors. They were billing and cooing in the most affection ate manner, their low notes contrasting with the shrill crow of some ambitious rooster, caged but still defiant. Afternoon Races. At 1:30 p.m. made up running race $100 a side, quarter mile dash. Blivens tered Little Dick, and Collins entered Blue Beau. Pools sold about even. Horses started abreast and kept in that sition some distance, when Dick got ahead, and came in about a length in advance. time given. SECOND RACE. At 2 p. m. half mile daeh for 2-year olds; purse $150, $100 to first and $50 to second horse. C. Mulkey Darned Neva Winters, (colors red.) H. G. Ward named Gipsey (color, orange). A. Werk named Nettles (colors yellow). In the pools Winters was the favorite four to one, Gipsey second choice. The horses made an even start, Gipsey in the lead, Net tles second, Winters third. These relative positions were retained until within 25 yards of the score, when Winters made a grand spurt, coming in half a length ahead, Gipsey 2d, Nettles 3d. Time, 51]. THIRD RACE. Running jace, one and one-fourth mile dash, for a purse of $400—$325 to first horse and $75 to second. C. Mulkey names Patsey Duffey, (colors red). A. Werk names Retort, (colors yellow). A. Sample names Joe Howell, (colors green). Patsey Duffey carries 90 pounds ; Retort, 103 pounds ; Joe How ell, 118 pounds. Pools sold nearly two to one in favor of Howell against the field. Duffey second choice. At the start Duffy had the pole, Retort second and Joe. Howell third. At the half mile post the three horses were close togeth er, but still retaining the same position. At the mile post Howell began to gain and ran for some distance neck and neck with Patsey, while Retort dropped behind. On the home stretch it was for sometime doubtful which would win, but Patsey under a vigorous lashing from his driver still maintained the lead, passing the Judge's stand half a length ahead of Howell who was second, Retort third. Time, 8:14]. After the mile and three quarters dash came the three year old trot, mile heats, best two in three for a purse of $150—$125 to first and $2ö to second horee. Robert Vaughn named.Choteau Belle, Harvey Bros. Charm, Beltinburg Bonesetter, and Ed. KiDg Chorus The horses had a very even start, but broke me e or less before reaching the quarter pole exct„ ti g Choteau Belle, who got down to work tine style and stayed with it during the her» Beforé reaching the half mile stake the other horses had become more steady, Chorous 1er -, ing the other two and closing up to Choteau Belle. On the home stretch Choteau Belle was so far ahead that it 6eemed that nothing but a miracle could defeat her. But a miracle of stupidity was wrought by her driver who stopped about two feet from the score and sat gawking about like a country clown on his first visit to town, and amid derisive cheers and boots Chorus passed in ahead and was declared winner, Choteau Belle second. The other two so far behind as to be distanced. Second heat.—The horses being called the driver of Choteau Belle was invited to dis mount and interview the Judges, which re sulted in bis being fined $25 and not allowed to drive. His place was taken by M. Mc Guirk and the horses started, Chorns in the lead and Belle some distance behind. In this heat Belle broke badly and came in at the score second best. Time, 3:19]. FIFXH DAY. Another cloudless day has demonstrated the wisdom of the officers who decided upon this as the best time for holding the Fair. It Î3 many years since the weather during Fair week has been so exceptionally beautiful,and though the lateness of the season has some what affected the display in the different de partments, the large attendance has shown that with an average season we would have ex hibits and an attendance surpassing anything ever before seen. The attendance yesterday was considerably in excess of that of the day before, and Floral Hall was thronged by those many words of commendation express ed their satisfaction with the articles display ed. The crowd to-day has been larger than pro sacks The one sea has his astri Bel Wil large There and all of light and of They with for en Blue po No olds; four Net mile of At ran the to up in that of yesterday, and the long line of vehicles en route to the grounds, filled with men, women and children, demonstrate that the interest is steadily increasing. Tb« Races. FIRST RACE. One and a half mile dash for purse of $300 —$225 to 1st, $75 to 2d horse. A. Sample names Premium. Geo. Lane uames Terlulia. H. R. Baker names Little Tom. In the pools Tom was a strong favorite, selling two to one against the field. The horses went off to the score and made the start. After running 20 yards Tom struck the fence, breaking one of his fore legs between the ankle and knee, the fractur ed bone protruding from the flesh about eight inches. This unfortunate accident caused some delay, but the other two horses finally got started. Before they had gone a quarter of a mile Terlulia also ran against the fence, skinning her shins badly, after which her driver was only able to keep heron the track Premium continued on her course and won the race. Time, 2:52-]-. SECOND RACE. Free for all, mile heats, best three in five, for a purse of $500— $350 to first horse, $100 to second and $50 to third. Murray entered Brutus. McGuirk entered Clark Chief. Scott entered Billy Grant. Larabie entered Herod. In the pools Herod was the favorite. When sales began Brutus was second choice, Clark Chief third, but before the pools were closed Clark Chief became second choice and Bru tus third. Tne horses went off at a fair start, Clark Chief in the lead, Herod second, Billy Grant third. The race was a very pretty one. Be tween the quarter and half mile pole Herod almost drew up with Chief, but soon after fell a short distance behind, Billy Grant still third. On the homestretch Chief led, Herod passiDg the score half a length behind, Billy Grant third, Brutus distanced. A rousing cheer greeted the Chief as he came in. Time 2:36. Second heat—The horses got an even start, Clarke Chief in the lead, Herod 2J, Grant 3d. From the first it was seen that Grant had no chance to win, and there was little excite ment, as Clarke Chief kept plenty of day light between himself and his competitors all the way round. Time, 2:39]. Third head.—A good start. Herod leading slightly. Chief second, Grant third. Chief soon got ahead. Between the quarter and half mile post Grant overtook Herod and drew alongside of Clark Chief, but at the three-quarter mile post fell back again. Chief coming in two lengths ahead, Grant second, Herod last. Time not given when reporter left. Sixth Ray. The last day of the fair has come and gone. The most gratifying success has crowned the efforts of the directors to make the exhibi tion iu every way satisfactory. It is esti mated that 2,000 persons were present yes terday and the attendance to-day ha 9 been fully equal, if Dot larger, than that of the day before. On Friday morning the judges begun the work of inspecting the various articles on exhibits n and awarding premiums.
