The inside depart- ment was,' if anything, 'snuffler than usual, although the quality was above the average. The out- side classes aero well filled, horses and cattle being well represented, The usual number of side attract- ions and refreshments clad a big business, while the farmers' trot held the crowd interested for over an hour. The weather was idea, Hicks himself could produce no, better, and a description of the Fair would bo incomplete without mentioning the Zurich Brass Band, who certainly outdid themeselve in the quantity and quality of music furnished.

CATTLE. hold on until it thunders. Fortun- ate the man who can hear the thunder of unprofitable results and let go his grip on unsuccessful methods.. The titles change and we must change -with them or suf- fer. Persistency in pursuit should be guided by possibilities of achieve- ment. Con+aistency is no virtue when it leads to loss. Circumstan- ces always alter cases. Adaptability not age, fixes the value of employ - anent, a, method, a practice. Let • go useless things. Abandon time- -worn methods. Some time ago a western paper offered a cash prize for the best answer to the question, "What is the worst failing of the modern young man?" The winner's tersely stated answer was, `Preference for ai white shirt job." Come to think of it there's a good deal in the re- flection. It is true that hard, grind- ing, slavish toil has a dwarfish ef- fect on. mind and body, but such is becoming rarer all tb.e time. In most kinds of labor now -a -days there is increasing scope for mental as well as physical dualities and these two factors jointly exercised develop men of character of power. Nowhere is there better opportun- ity for this development than on the farm, and when we realize more generally the part that intellect can play an the farmer's work we will 'wonderfully lessen the spirit of discontent evident in rural com- 3lnunities. It is not promised that the farmer will be a man of leisure ; rather it is,to be rejoiced that he is not. But it is asserted with con- tdence born of an increasing num- ber of examples that the applica- tion of more knowledge and mental energy will divest the occupation of much of the drudgery it now seems to involve, and place the farmers in a position where they can stand up as physical, mental and social peers, if not superiors of the best specimens of humanity in towns.
