The atow hut year was considered highly eeccessful, but when it is known that this year the receipta et the gam were nearly 1100 in elegies of its predecessor, it C311 be eesily conjectured that the efforts ef the ahead of the interested societies to put our exhibition . in the front rank of county shows. is appreciat- ed by the public at lane. The Gode- rich Show bids fair ere long to rival the Western Fair and kindred fall gather- ings, and we know of no ratans why such should not be the mac Huron breeders largely mast in keeping up the stock departments of the great outside I „ fairs, and Huron grain, fruit, flowers, vegetables, and handicraft cannot ' be aurpassed in any other county in Outs - rid That the Show will go forward with rapidity. now that it has been fairly es- tablished, there is little reason to doubt and that it will by exhibit.. freafter be attended "a and spectators from all ef the county we have little reason to question. 4 14 course there are some imprevemouts to be made in the 1 selection ef judges and in the attention necessary to perfect ether details, which will require time to develop and aatute- j nese on the part of the directorate to i carry out ; but these imperfections are things' which will appear even in the best managet1 fairs, fall shows or exhi- bitions. On Thursday evening the INSIDE DEPARTMENT was thrown open to the public, bet the attendance was not so large as • pre - yams occasions. probably owing to the fact that the price of admission had been raised from 10c to 25c. This raising of the admission acted as a deterrent the firseeveninie, but on the following day the nutuber of visitors was of a crushing nature.

A fea- ture in this display was a handsome glass case 4 cakes and confectionery shown by Mr. I. E. Knight, which was much ad- mired by .inc and all. On the ground flat Mr. W01.

Raving patsed around the lower storey .4 the Exhihitjon Hall, the spectator ascended the steps to the .LADIE:. DEPARTMENT AND ART GALLERY. Here could be seen the result of many hours of tedious labor on the part of the ladies of the sectilin, and evidences of female handicraft could be observed on every side, from the delicate embroidery en muslin and silk to the cheerful looking patched qoilt. the hue of which suggest- ed warmth to a greater extent even than did its ample proportions.

A few days ago we had the pleasure of viewing the herd of Mr. James Dick- son, 4 Tuckersmith. Mr. Dickson has gone into the breeding of Shorthorns pretty extensively and has in his stables some as tine animals as can be seen any- where. Among these we nuty notice his well known cow "Vim* the Fourth," which has pruduoed for hint several sple:lirmtinvanifotualsrdi,aandrasi h gni)ok sa s mtwetbrall as over yet. Gi her descendants ie "Young im year old bull, which neighs 2.300 pounds, and is a model of his class; she has also a five months old heifer calf, which is as hatelsome an animal as we ever saw. It is a beautiful dark red, with white marks, and will make a cow which will yet take a leading place in the best prize rings. Both the bull and this heifer were sired by Mr. Dickson's "Earl of Goa:new" M. Dickson • has also a very superior young bull sired by "Earl of Gutelress," and from a thoroughbred oow, and three superior bull calves by "ladorges Oxford." He has also a remarkably fine two year old heifer, which would be hard to beat. Although these are bit leading animals, he has a very lap herd, and all of them show good breesung. 7.-iiii far be .- been unusually successful and has dispos- ed of all his surplus stock at good prices .and without \difficulty. Thu is • moat gratifying feature, as it shows that farm- ers generally are now beginning to ap- preciate the benefits and profits of breed- ing from the very best stock. Mr. Dick- son intends showing several of his best animals st the Provincial Exhibition next week, where they will, no doubt be heard from. .. It is not, however, the older sections of the county that are comingtothe front in the matter of good stock. In the townships of Grey and Morris, we un- derstand there are several fine herds. We werWmuch surprised and pleateed the other day, on visiting the farm of Mr. Thomas McLaughlin, of Grey, about two and a half miles nrth of Brussels. Mr. McLaughlin is as yet comparatively a young breeder of shorthorns, but in bis quiet way has made good progress.. Two yearn ago he commenced with a very fine oow, "Rock Star," from the Stone stock, and he has now a nice herd of thorough- breds and a splendid lot of gnulea. Last winter he purchased from Mr. Dickson the bull, *elf "Lord Lome." This ani- mal,' which is now 18 months old, is a perfect monster for his age and is a splendidly proportioned animal He is of a dark red color, is low ma and pos- sesses the very finest beef qualities. With this superior animal Mr. McLaugh- lin will not only improve his own stock, but will also benefit his neighbors. Be- sides bit old oow and this bull, he has a two year old heifer got by "Duke of Kent," owned by Waldie of Acton, which has few supenors. Ie tem also a maimificent heifer calf from "Rock Star' and by "Lord Clyde," a, bull re- cently owned by Mr. John Sample, of Grey, another gentleman .who has made good pnigreas with this clam of cattle. A young bull. "Huron Chief," from his young heifer and by "Lord Clyde," is also a nice little animal, and comingas he does from such good stock, will surely develop into one of the beat. Besides these he has eeveral others which are more or lees deserving of mention, did space permit. Mr. McLaughlin has a great lilting for good stock and mane to have every accommodation for them. He has recently erected an immense new bank barn, with the most oommodious and convenient stabling underneath, - which is so arranged that a large number of animals can be stalled, and attended with the least possible labor. And every- thing about the premises is in the most perfect order, showing that the proprie- tor thoroughly understands his business. M.L.McLaughlin also intends going into the breeding of horses, and has purchas- ed from his brother and nearest n - bor a magnificent three year old y, sired by Old Enterprise, for which he paid the sum of.IMO.
