It was one of those rare Oct­ ober days', with warm sunshine and bracing atmosphere, on which every­ one delights to be out in the open, , and a large crowd found their way j to the fairgrounds and packed the I building and grounds. Autos were Russell thicklj’ parked in the space reserved for them and along the roadside. There was a splendid showing in the indoor department which called forth much favorable comment. In some of the departments, especially the roots and vegetables, the show­ ing was not as large as on some oc­ casions, but what there was, was of good quality. There was an excep­ tionally fine showing of flowers with all their brilliant hues and variegat. ted colors. The display of home-made cook­ ing was exceptionally fine and so attractive as to whet the appetite of all who gazed upon it. The chid- ren’s work attracted the admiration of the spectators. The outdoor judging rings were the centre of a great -deal of interest to the lovers of fine stock. Kirkton has always had an enviable reputa­ tion for the splendid showing both in horses and cattle and the judges had no easy tasks in making their awards. Some exceptionally fine animals graced the ring. The sheep exhibit was larger than usual and a keen interest was taken. The Dashwood band furnished the music for the day and there were a couple of speeding events.
