Mr. B, h. Higgins.of Verna.exhibited
a set of harness which was decorated,
with the red ticket. Mr. Higgins ex-
pected the local dealers would compete;
he•was anxious that they would do so,
but they did uot and he .had the. field
all to himself. • •
There were a number of fakirs
present but the society taxed them
two dollars each and thus got. back ti
small percentage of their recelpti. .
Music was furnished by the Lucan
brass band, alfairly efficient aggrega-
tion. But they wera,not called upon
to plityvery often deringtlae m. for
when theydid the meersego-round had
to suspend operatiOns, the noise of , the
latter could drown out the hand,
The entries numbered about one
thousand, about the same number as
last year. Four-fifths were made by
residents of the tevenship., though
there Were rather more entries from
outside at this Pair than last.
The Elay„Society, says the' seeretary,
has always paid its prize money in full,.
even after the Fair of some. years ago,
when, owing to a heavy downpour of
raid' during the day, the receipts only
amounted to thirty dollirs. But the
Society managed to pull through and
owe no man a dollar. Last year they
had a surplus of two hundred dollars.
The most. succesful Fair the Society
has yet held was that of some years
since when, as a special attraction,
they put on a band teurriattlent. Sev-
eral bands competed and music lovers
from far and near came to hear them,
so the gate receipts were large.
The general admisston this year was
twenty five cents but .it is expected
that the Society will drop it next Fair
to fifteen. The smeller fee with it is
believed; bring outmore people and a
Fait, no matter how good it may be
otherwise, is pot considered a success
without a big crowd of visitors.
The Hay Agricultural Society • has
had its ups and downs. The village of
Hensall thought it should have the
Fair alternate years and not succeed-
ing it withdrew from participation.
The east part of the township, too, was
cool for a time so that the Society had
to depend for its support upon the
centre and west. The old feeling,
however, has about passed away and
the directors look forward to e success-
ful future.
The flag which floated upon the hall
was of peculiar design, consisting of
bars of red, white and blue 'with a St.
Andrew's cross of red on white, ground
in the upper. corner. •
Mr. D. f3. Faust has been secretary -
treasurer for about twenty two years
and is Personally acquainted with near-
ly every member of the Society.. He
is genial, courteous and deeply inter-
ested in the success of the Farr.
The.officers for this year are: Presi-
dent, W. Caldwell ; Vice, H.Lipphart;
2nd Vice.S.R.Schnell ; Sec. -Treasurer,
D. S. Faust; Directors, W. Blackwell,
W. B. Battler, S. Decher, F. Willem
J. Habeeer, E. Troyer, 0. Oswald, R.
R. Johnston, W. Roeder.
Mr. A. Dunkin of the Bay,field road,
near Varna, won every prize in the.
list save two with his Shropshire sheep.
He had. similar success at the Exeter
Fair and likely as not will sweep the
boards wherever he. exhibits, His
Shrops are noted far and wide and he
- finds ready sale for them. The princi-
pal purchasers of late have been Wis-
consin farmers, who are partial to
Shropshires, and wanting to stock up
with the best came oyer and made a
selection from Mr. Dunkin's flock.
The Snowdon Bros. of the Bauble
Line had a fine exhibit of pigs, Tanis,.
Berks and Chester Whitest, and also ot
Leiceister sheep. These up-toalate
and successful Waters have no fads
but go in for the class of stock which
pays hest, They Won a number of
prizes. Mr. R. Snowden, who hi

sdoubt was on the lookout for pointers
'As his Society is making every effort
to make The World's Fair" better
and bigger then ever before. If he
was in the habit of Waking compari-
sons he might truly say that the Bay-
fiehlrair excels that of Zurich in Bev-
eral points, •

• animal and will yet brim; Mr. John-
ston a big price. This was the &St
entry he ever made. at a Fall Fair and
may be the meanerof inducing him to
corupete on a larger scale another year.
In the roadster class the competition
was keen) tie less than five spans par-
ading before thejudges, First Money
was awarded to a pair of well matched
greys shown by Mr. Reuben Ettahata of
Clinton and the second to a span be-
longing to Mr. R. Elliott of the Goshen
Line, Stanley, One of Mr. Elliott's
horses was a roan, one of the most ad-
niired horses on the ground.
Mr. J. Wiee of '.Cuckersmitia won
seven red tickets and four blue °nee for
his exhibit of grain. At Exeter his
record Was Tilde en& five, respectively,
and by the time he gets through with
the Pairs he will have pretty nearly
won prizes running up to the three
figures. Miss 11. Wide was Still more
strccessful with her display of ladies'

prizes and at Exeter (seventeen. Her
