McLean. Fat cow or heifer, II McLean, I carie Fisher, W lia,wcleu. The Great No)•th Western Fair was held at Uurlerich, four days, last week, and proved a grand success, notwith- standing the unfavorable weather of the first three days. The committee of management are to be complimented for their untiring exertions to have everything carried out with the best of satisfaction, and we think we can safely say they succeeded. Large additious have been male to the stable accommo• dation, but the entries for stock $o far exceeded those of last year, that many exhibitors had to tied stabling for their animals elsewhere. One good feature was thepoultry hall, in which the featherywere t riU s o •shown to good na- vantage, and at night they were under lock and key, which prevented then from being disturbed. Where so much good stock wag shown it is difficult to particularize, suffice it to say that eacb was good in its class. There was a good display of agricultu- ral implements and machinery,, repre- senting these lines we noticed Messrs Weir and Sheppard, of Chilton; Moffatt, of Varna, and Stanley; of Holmesville. Mr Giffin, of Clinton, was there also, representing the St. Thomas White Bronze Monument Co., who exhibited a bronze monument four feet square at the base, and 17 feet high, which was highly commended by all who saw it, and was awarded a diploma. Mr It. M. Racey, of Clinton, made a grand dis- playof hardware and cutlery, all of Canadian manufacture, of which any Canadian aright well be proud. Mr Bell was here with the N.Y. Singer, and it is a pity it is not a Canadian too, for it is an Al machine. It would gladden the heart of any Canadian to see the fihe display of fruits, vegetables, grains, straws, minerals and scenery, from British Columbia and Manitoba, as a specimen of what may be grown in those countries. The fine display of fruit, vegetables and flowers proved be- yond the shadow of a doubt that the county of Huron is well adapted to the production of these, when anything like a fair chance is given them. The grounds, at night, were beauti, fully illuminated with electric light, which added net a little to the success of thefair, Another very commendable thing, which we must not forget to mention was, there was no intoxicating liquor sold on the ground, and not a drunken person was seen in the enclos- ure, proving, by its absence, the utter uselessness of these stimulants. One little incident we might mention. A tine blood mare got away from her driver, and galloped around the ring, trying to make kindling wood of the sulkey, and then turned- in among the people, but, aside from warping up the sulkey n little, no serious damage was done.
