, ,
The twenty-eighth .- ..'.&tTal Exhibition
Of the' Bradford County grioniturel, So
ciety, was held on the gt a nds of -th e
eiety, in Bast Towareta; on - WOlneeitiyi.
Thuradaffuld 2 Friday, of -last *oak," slid
was the most successful 'Exhibition °COB
kind---both as yto number of exhibiti and
number of people 'in attendance— . oiler
heldin this County, if :not in :Northern.
Tentisylvania. Binca the pureli...ge of the
grounds on which -the exhibitions -are'
held lfy, the Society, many imprOvements
have been made in the arrangerniint there
of by the Managers.' The fence enclosing
the grounds has been extended north so
as to take in a large portion o the plue
grovelbat was formerly outside of the
enclosure. This is a great improvement,
andone that adds not only
,tnthe seacei
:within the enclosure but giVestacilities
for the' accommodation of the tearas of
exhibitors and visitors, that the.grunnds
have sadly needed in the past. Tbe Hotel
building isulso now within the efielosure,
• which does away ;with the, unsightly
structure near the northern end of the
'grounds, heretofainused as the "Com
missary department." Two gates—one
near the hotel building and • ono ,at the
nothern end of-. the :grounds—greatly
facilitSto the ease of.ingress _ and egress of
thev' kers to the show, and lessens the
dau er of" accidents which -were liable to
is
occ r formerly When there was but one
gate, through which evety. person and
everything going onto Or-nit from the
groundti *as forced to piss. The half
mile track has been placed in excellent
condition; and the. grand stand removed
from its old location, to a more appFopri
ate and sightly positionnearthe northern
fence. Many other improvements have
_been made .in the arrangement of the
grounds and buildings, :which add much '
to the comfort of the visitors and no doubt
to the convenience of the exhibit Ors.
Whilst the weather this -year was not as
pleasant as was that of last year, during:
the continuance of the Exhibition,, yet
thd number of exhibits was far iu excess
of any , previous year, as was the attend
ance of visit Ors.. The 'entries this year
were 1317 ini number. .-"Last year. there
were 026 anC-the year previous but 336.
The number of tickats sold to visitors on
Wednesday-was 150. Thuisday 4050,. and
on Friday 2200. A tbtal of 6,400 for the
three days. C - ompetent judges placed the
number of people on'- the grounds on
Thursday at 2 p. m. at between 6,000 and
7,000, and - Friday, -at: the same hour,
there were no doubt between four And
five thousand persona, present: : .
Was this year as in 'the, pagt,
to the entry. classification and arranging of
t xhibits. Visiting the grounds in the after- .
noon we found the officers of the Society
still basily.• engaged in receiving entries,
whilst the noise of- the hammer and - saw
gave the i'isiter . notice that the exhibitors
were equally bmiy .in arranging their ex
hibits for the inspection of the crowds
that the iiiorroW would - bring to Mew
them. It Was a busy .day On the grofinds,
but every one seemed to be good-natured,
and ready and Willing to impart informa
tion—wi:Ulm) as to what :the weather
would prove to be on Thutsday, the num
ber of people who would be present, or
the. - m`erits of any article entered fin- a
premium. The officers of the Association;
although called upon to auswerinnuner
able questions, relevant and irrelevant, as
0 entries, by those. who weee making them
and More who were not, they; were one and
all . courteous and. obligin g to a degree
that was remarkable ander, the circum
gram:6. • : .
Was ushered in with a cold, `raw wind,
which prevailed all _day, accompanied by
steral slight showers in theafternoon.
At an earlY hour in the morning the
grounds began to fill:with visitors, and at
noon the crowt - Luf People present was
estimated to far ,exceed that in attend
ance on anyday at any Previons l Fair in
this county: The. crowd was a good-_
natured oner - -,had evidently . comb for a
thy of sight-seeing and eitioyme;nt, and
fully indulged in: both,. notwithstanding
the weather was not exactly propitious. -
Throughout' the entire day those who
were fortunate enough town, or have
1)(-session .of, " speedy " borses,and not.
a few that were not "speedy "—improv:
ed the excellent condition of the track,
in vain attempts to lower the record made
by Maud S and -beat 2.;10. We did
runt hear of any; horse beating that time,
'but there, were many fine "stoppers_ „ on
.the course, awl not a few that were net.
As a .general thing the - animals were
abort the average in bt,aut y and speed,
iand,attract&ra great deal of attention.
As tic visitors.left the grounds near-even
ing fiir'their homes, all expressed therW 7
selves as of the opinion that the Fair-was
the best one.ever held in the Citunty, and
Ifetne se meti to regret . that the Annual
Address, advertised to be - delivered at 2 p.
in., had 'been omitted.
- FRIDAY—THE LAST DAY, "1
:
Was ,the finest,. so far as the weather was
cimeerued, of 'any of . the *days of the
,Pair... The sky was .cloudless, the day.
swarm and beautiful. An immense crowd
ofl visitors was again preSent—larger by
fat .than on the last day of any previous .
Fair. .As on the two previous days, all.
we g jovial and *good-natured, yet all de
ter lined to personally examine all of the ,
exl ibitswhich we should - .judge, by•the
crowded eonditfon of all of the buildings
dulling most of the day, t.ey all succeed
ed in ,doing. A about Ip. m: the animals
that had been warded prizes were form•
cd in "process pn on the track and march
ed in , review before the Grand Stand. It
was•a beautiful sight, and highly enjoyed
by all present. Although the work of
the, exhibits began- early in the
afternoon, the crowd of visitors did not
seem to kAiminish until late in Ihe day,
and as on the previous day alLannouoix>4
•themselves as highlileased with the
Fair and 'its Mana..,4nnent,_ and not a few
predicted that another year they then.-
