stopped when necessauy to oil again,

then, every citizen who regards his interest,
to lend his aid to anything that will impart
hope and encouragement to the tillers of the
soil.
Agricultural Societies and Fairs are medi
ums through which farmers can have free
interchange of opinion with each other,
upon the best means of promoting improve
ment in the theory and practice of Agricult
ure, by exhibiting their stock and imple
ments with tlie products of tlieir fields and
orchards.
Agricultural exhibitions are the precursors
of improvement ; they are eminently col'
ciliated to arrest the attention of those who
are void of feeling ; to break in upon the
dull monotony that iervades the locality
where the fair is held. They are is interest
ing as they are instructive, and never fail
if projierly conducted to impart a salutary
and abiding influence upon the minds of all
who participate in their interesting display
and innocent recreation.
Within their enclosures are to he found
the best siecimens of farm stock, the choic
est varieties of seeds, samples of the last
crops, improved implements of husbandry,
specimens of household manufacture, but
ter, cheese and poultrj'i all arranged for the
inspection of the curious and challenging
competition.
Who can look upon such a scene and not
be struck with a deep sense of its utility ?
and what farmer, however enlightened, hut
may add something to his stock of knowl
edge, or have his doubts removed as to the
excellence of some breeds of farm stock, or
the capacity of some implement which he
never used ? These with the friendly greet
ings, the revival of old friendships and the
formation of new acquaintances, give to
the scene a holiday freshness a dash of ni
ral felicity that compensate for manv a
long and solitary day of toil upon the farm.
Agricultural Societies and Fairs hare al
ways seemed to me favorable experiments
'hereby a laudable emulation and rivalry
might be promoted, and to serve as a rally
ing point where we can snatch a stork of
that spirit and enterprise, so luminous in the
track of the busy throng that arc pushing
along and going ahead with railroad sjiced.
It generally brings together in one great
social body most of the leading and efficient
friends of agriculture. Their meetings are
friendly and social. They come together as
a rule animated by a kindred spirit, and de
voted to kindred pursuits, act in concert
and part with the best of feeling. Happily
collected together, not to engage in (Mil itical
or party strife, but for their mutual good,
consulting how best to promote the inter
ests of agriculture, peace and good will ani
mating every bosom ! Creat jubilees of the
tillers of the soil ! The common school of
the farmers, and have a tendency to gladden
the hearts of all who attend them."
