TO THB PUBLIC :
We take pleasure in presen ting to the people
of onr County the Preminm LUt of the Third
Annual Fair of the Butler County Agricultural
Association.
Onr prospects for a successful meeting are
very flattering indeed. We have eecured the co
operation of representative farmers ID different
sections of the county, whose n*mea guarantee
the success of any enterprise with which they
may be identified.
The management are determined tbat the AS-
Mciatlon shall be devoted exclusively to the ad
vsncement of the Agricultural, Mechanical sod
other domestic Interests of the county, and will
•pare no means to make the coming meeting all
«£»> could be desired by both exhibitors and
visitors. And we earnestly ask the co-o|>er»-
tion of the dtivo? of onr <- unty, tf pecially the
fkrmers. in making the coming Fair a pucees*,
and In doing so, would say tbat we are fully
alive to the (act tbat without the co-operation ot
the farmers, no Agricultural Fair can be made a
success. And believing, as we do, that the Inter
ests of agriculture are best advanced by these
annual meetings, we hope the citliens ol the
County will look on it as a matter in which we
all have a common interest; and let It be remem
bered that the management cannot make an
Agricultural Fair a success without the co-oper
ation of those most Interested in Agriculture.

pat It on exhibition, and If you don't get a pre

joyment of others, and of helping to make our
Fair a success. , .. . ?

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS']
Exercise your judgment.—A newer and better
philosophy.—To pull down all absurd and anti
quated notions of disease.^and its cures, and to
establish a rational system on the ruins, has been
the chief endeavor of l>r. Holloway through life.
Hence the origin of his celebratdd Pills and Oint
ment—remedies in keeping with common sense,
because subservient to nature, rather than at
variance with her laws, like those in general use.
To the stomach we tr:vce dyspepsia, heapache and
general debility ; to the liver, bile. Jaundice, and
yellow fever ; to the bowels, diarrhn-a. dyseutary,
constipation, piles and llstuly ; to the lunes, con
sumption, etc.; to the blood, scrofula, scurvey,
and all cutaneous eruptions. By keeping these
organ; and vital fluid pure and healthy we may
safely defy the attacks of disease, and no medicine
yet prepared for this purpose can equal the action
of these Pills and Ointment, as they dive to the
seat of the disorder, and extirpating Its cause, de
stroy its effect.
IMPORTANT CAUTION,— None are genuine un
less the signature of J. HAYPOCK, as agent for the
fluted States, surrounds each box of Pills and
Ointment. Boxes at 25 cents, G2 cents ami $1 each.

CANCER.
This disease like many others is regarded
as incurable. It is not so. If it is taken in
time it is as easily cured as a wart or a corn.
We know very well that it is a fearful disease
and will eat away until it destroys life, that
is if it is neglected, but if it is attended to
when it first makes its appearance, or soon
after, there is no trouble in eradicating it
from the system. Persons will have to be here
during part of the treatment, consequently
there is no use writing to me for information
whether it can be cured without my seeing the
case. I also treat with success, Rupture, Piles,
Fistula, Ulcere, Ulcerated legs, Varicose Veins.
Varicocele Tumors, Hydrocele, and every form

A NEW DEPARTURC!
THE SYRACUSE CHILLED PLOW CO.
of Syracuse, N. Y.
Are now putting on the market a Plow that
Is as much superior to any Flow heretofore
made as the Plows of the past few years have
been superior to those made half a century
ago.
It combines all the excellencies of any Plow
In use.
It obviates ttu the objections made to any
other Plow.
In addition It embraces several new features
of the greatest value, for which we have ob
tained exclusive Patents.
Its Beam, Clevis, Jointer Standard and Wheel
Standard will be STEEL, and Its mold board
will be a composition of Steel and Iron chilled
under a process for which we have also
obtained an exclusive Patent. It will be
ntllart
THE BYRACUBE
CHILLED STEEL PLOW
Its weight will be eighteen pounds less than
our present styles.
A flrstrclass steel Plow, made in the or
dinary way, full rigged, retails for twenty-two
dollars. Inferior Steel Plows retail from six
teen to nineteen dollars.
The price of our new Plow will be but
Seventeen Dollars, and It will be the
cheapest Agricultural Implement ever sold.
Its mold board will outwear three of the
very best kinds of the ordinary steel mold
boards.
It will scour In soils where all steel plows
and all other plows have hitherto proved a
failure.
With this Plow will be Introduced a corru
gated Plow Point and Jointer Point, on which
we have also obtained a Patent, and which H
also a great Improvement, both as regards
Krength and wear.
The Jointer can be shifted so as to take
more or less land, and also more or less pitch,
and It can always be kept on a line with the
Plow.
The wheel will run under the beam or one
Bide of It as desired, and always kept in line.
The beam Is adjustable for Spring or Fall
Plowing, and also for two or three horses.
The handles can be adjusted to accommo
date a man or boy, on the same Plow,
It Is a perfect Plow.
Wooden beams are going out of use because
they shrink, swell and warp, and never run
two seasons alike.
Iron beams are too heavy.
Malleable beams become demoralized and
bend, which Is much worse than to break.
A Steel beam Is the necessity of the day. It
b three times as strong and very much lighter
than any other style.
When «>e say a Mold board Is chilled, the
farmers know It Is so.
We do not palm off on them a composition
Of various metals and call It chilled metaL
We want agents for this new Plow in every
town In this State.
We can give but a very small discount to
them, but we will pay the Railroad Freight.
We propose to place this Plow in the hands
of Farmers as near the cost of manufacture
as possible.
It will be the best Agricultural Implement
ever sold.
It shall also be the ehtapuL
Persons therefore who are not wining to act
as agents on the principle that "a nimble six
pence is better than a slow shilling," need not
apply for an agency.
No Plows on commission. AH sales absolute.
WThls Is the only Steel Chilled Plow In
the World.
Steel costs several times more than Iron.
But this Plow, mil rigged, by giving snail
discounts, can be sold for Seventeen Dollars.
Compare this price with that of any Iron Plow
ever made.
It is cheaper than any other Plow now
Bade would be at live dollars and a half.
Where there are no agents we will, on re
telptof Seventeen Dollars, send a Plow to any
K&ilroad station In the State and pay tfcs
