HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1881-10-07, Page 7The Zuriah Show. The Zurich people ;had their usual luck this year, vizi Wet weather, a good glow and a large crowd. On Thursday the weather was all that could be de- sired, but en Friday morning appear - &noes were threatening, but the rain kept off well until about five o'clock in the evening. just as the mass of the people were preparing to vacate the• show ground, when it descended in torrents, giving many a wet skin, and no doubt spoiling not a few new hats and bonnets. To say that the Zurich show was succeseful this year, would not be doing it justice. Taken upon the whole it was decidedly the best that has been held there for thirteen years. It must be gratifying, indeed, to the Di- rectors ande other friends of the sooiety to witness year by year a gradual im- provereente_beth in extent, variety and quality of exhibits, as well as in atten- dance. According -to the gate receipts, the attendance this year was the largest of any yet, and the appearance of the ground in the afternoon indicated this showing. In the indoor department there was scarcely so good a show as in the field, but still there was a good display. The thaw of grain and roots, was large, and the quality of the exhibits as good as could be desired. The fruit, in come men with all the shows this seaso,a. was somewhat light, and not of SO crieod quality as usual. The display of -II:airy products was much ahead Of veaat is usually seen this year, both as r agate's quality and quantity, while in, ladies' work, there was a Splendid aollectionl and the• ladies of Zurich and vicinity are •entitled to the highest credit for the magnificent display they always make at their fair, and. their good example might well be imitated by the ladies of other districts. In the field there was really a mag- mificent show in almost every depart- ment. The first thing to attract the attention of the visitor was the splendid collection of vehicles exhibited. by Mr. Fred. Hess, of Zurich. A covered And an open buggy, for general style and excellence of finish, could not be surpassed. There was also a very good display of agricultural -implements. In this department a self-bincler, of John Watson's make, and exhibibited by Mr. Geo. Park, the agent, attracted much attention from the visitors. It Was put in actual operation, and the neat and expeditiou manner in which it did its work was a subject for general remark.. In sheep and swine there was an unusually large show and many really superior animals. The show of sheep was as good as we leave seen in the county. • The principal lack at Zurich show is in cattle, but, even here there was a marked improve- ment this year. The best department trif the whole was that of horses. The heavy draught class: was somewhat light. Had the recent importations owned within the juria- dietion of the society been on the ground, the displayof horses, taken as a whole would have been very little behind. that at the Provincial Exhibi- tion. Mr. Love, the President of the Society, would have had his imported and prize aninads present had he not been detained so long with them at the Provincial. But he just got home from London at fourVelook Friday morning, and it was impossible for him to get his stock in shape in time for this sho But any lack in the heavy drauglat saa more than made up by the super- abundance in the other classes. In general purpose and agricultural horses there was the keenest competition and many superior animals, both 'old and young, while the same may correctly be said of the carriage and roadster horse.. In view of the immense number of horses that are continually being shipped away, it is a matter for the greatest surprise that se many really good animals are still left. The proverbial courtesy and kiodness of the officials and Directors of the society was not wanting on this occa- sion, and each one seemed to vie with the other as to which could do most not only to ma,ke the show successful but to make things as pleasant as possible for every one,exhibitors, spectators and judges.

He took sick and had to go home and on returnieg a short time afterwards to get his ooat, which he had left hanging on a pin in thelitable, he found that it was not there. On further iiiifch be- ing made it was found that theCoat had been cut to pieoes by Kane sharp instru- ment!and thrown amongst some straw. A short time ago an attempt WAS made to ruin some horses belonging to the gentleman. It is high time that steps were taken to find out who the perpe- trators of this mischief are. Goderich Signal says A young lady in townitells of a rather pe- culiar oceurrence whiola took place on Sunday. Returning home, she Was taking off her hat in her room, when with a loud cackle a plump hen sud- denly flew about the room and out of the window. A discovery of a newly laid egg in a small basket added to the oddness of the hen's presence, although it provided a clue to the reason of its strange *visit. It is not often that a basket in a young ladies boudoir is se- lected as a neat by a hen. The young lady ate the egg, : t the • evening meal. Good enough. —At the co usion of the annual drill at Godericb, the members of the 33rd, or Huron Battalion of 'Volunteers were addressed by COl. Ross: In his remarks the Colonel bore testimony to the good conduct of the men as follows: "It had give e him much pleasure to observe the universal good condOot which had obtained, and the fact that no occasion had occurred in which he, as commanding officer, had been called npoiato-sentauce punishment for any offence to afirinember of the Battalion spoke well for the 83rd. Ile hoped that the same. good record would be maintained so long as the men wore their eniforras, and uutil they returned home, and were relieved from their duties and the supervision of their officers." • —While the volunteers of the 33rd. Battalion were about being dismissed after performing their annual drill, Ser- geant 'Alexander Wilson of the Seaforth Company was requested to march to the front of the Battalion, and was complemented by Col. Ross, the com- manding officer, on the distinction he had attained as premier marksman in the Wimbledon team, and also forbeing the champion "shot" of the Dominion, and the winner of the Governor -Gen- eral's badge and'prize for 1881. The Colonel hoped Sergeant Wilson would long live to win honors as a marksman, and be a credit, as he undoubtedly was, to the 33rd Huron Battalion. He con- clucled-by.proposing three cheers' for Sergeant Wilson, which were given, with a will. County Notes. • Mr. W. J.

NEITHER does the Merchant who conducts his business on sound principles, viz.: Give the BEST Quality possible, and for the least' money. This is, and has been, our aim all through; hence our great success. See the wonderful TEA TRADE we have established, many wonder what we do with such enormous quantities, and at times we wonder ourselves where it all goes. We sell it, that is certain. Could we thus succeed, in the faceofsuch determined opposition as we daily meet with, unlesa we gave EXTRA .VALUE? Truly no. The public are alive and must have the best value going. It is not the low priced Teas pushed by some merchants and pedlars that are the best value. No. To get really good Tea you must have it not only with body, but style and flavor, which our Teas at 50, 55, 60, 65 and 70 cents per pound in caddies possess.—(We can, of course, give you good sound Teas for less money—three pounds for $1.) We have often said, and again repeat, we fear no competition. We are ever ready to. supply intending purchasers with samples free, and thereby allow comparison. 'Tis deeds, not words, that have placed us the largest Tea Merchants in Seaforth, While giving Teas a large share of our attention, we carry the'a3ame sound principles into each and every department of our business, viz.: 'The best quality possible for the least money. We have one of the Largest and Best Selected Stocks of General Groceries West of Toronto, which, for Quality and Prices 4 are unexcelled.. In SUGARS we avoid all low-priced goods), believing them to be neither economical nor beneficial to the pnrchaser ; theref4re, we cannot offer you 14 pounds -to the dollar. OUR CROCKERY AND GLASSWARE DEPARTMENT Is worthy of inspection, as we can show you goods not usually kept outside of the cities. We now hold a fine assortment of DINNER SETS, TEA SETS and BEDROOM SETS, imported for us direct from the Manufacturers, which we are selling at 20 per cent:less than you can buy the same goods for in the cities.
