We would call the attention of stock raisers and horse fanciers to the adver tisement in another column setting forth the announcement of our Fair managers. It is well known that, for a term of ‘ mm, dismointment and chagrin have n ca by the coming of the rainy season at or about the commencement of their annual fairs. Farmers find neither . profit nor satisfaction in driving their stock to the Fair through pelting rains and then striving to parade their valua ble animals over muddy grounds, before ‘ a meager attendance of visitors. Thus. 1 while these drawbacks during recent ‘ ; years have been annoying to exhibitors ; ‘ they have been embarrassing and ruin- ‘ one to the association. - . To avoid similar dimculties. the Ore- 1 con State Agricultural Society adopted i three years ago, the plan of appointini ; their fairs a an earlier date, and th ihangehas been crowned with marked success. Profiting ythese observations .mr own directors ave improved qun their neighbora' plan by dividing t sin exhibition; holding a fair at ther ground» for the display 0 stock and tnals_ o. apeed, at a safe distance from such tin» is is liableto equinoxial storms. ano thereafter opening an exhibition in our 4pacious Columbia Hall for the bench: Jt all those interested in the displaly oi zrains, traits. flowers, etc. and the on; ‘ist or articles common to in-door exposi tions.
