The financial position of the society was fully dip. cussed, and it was shown that the society had been pladed at extra heavy expense during the past few years• Some years ago, the society bad the misfortune to be visi ed with wet SA 0 taller on the last day of the fair. The gate receipts [bar, year were a very -mall ernouni, but the society plaid some $000 in prizes, as well as the expenses of management for the year. That same year one other society in the county did not pay any prize money, and another one settled with their exhibitors, at fifty cents on the dollar. The local society paid ail' claims in full, and was leftwith a debt of some $009 Following the wet year, came the building of two foot bridges, at a cost of nearly $850 Last year there wawa considerable drop in gate receipts, and a loss on the ,con- cert- In the face of these losses, the society is now some $1,200 in debt. With a view to paying off the debt, the officers and directors at the meet. ing on the 20 h of February, made donations of $10 each Those sub• scribing were, John J. Moffat, W. J. Currie, W. J.

At the meeting on March 171b,' the committee reported that satisfactory arrangements had been made for the use of the grounds for the holbog this year's fair. Contmirtees were appointed to in. terview the different municipal coup- . nils, and ask for liberal grants to the society. The ettanding Field Crop Competi- tion will this year aeain be a popular feature of the society, This is branch of the society's work has been of much benefit to the farmers of this section. This year it has been decided to charge an entrance fee of one dollar to this competition, in addition to the regular membership fee. Particulars of this year's competition can be seen in our advertising columns. ' A. G. Stni'rh was appointed as Sec..
