On page 10 of the Premium List of the State Agricultural and Mechanical Socie ty for the present j'ear, will be found the offer of Premiums amounting in the ag gregate to fWO, for the Counties making the best display of County Products, to he shown at the Fair November 10, 1800. Tlic requirements are: “To the Coun ty making the Best and Largest Display of Products grown or produced by resi dents of the County, Pemiums will be awarded as follows: 1st Premium, *230; 2nd Premium, *130; 3rd Premium *100— In all, *300. All Grain must be shown in quantities not less than one-half bushel. The Judges making the award in this con test, will consider first, Quality; second, Quantity ; third, Variety: and fourth, Ar rangement. Articles for the County dis play will not count in the Individual Premium.” I beg that you call special attention to this feature, and urge your County to be a competitor in the contest. Aside from the money involved, County pride should stimulate our farmers to enter heartily into the matter, and thus show the pro gress of Agriculture in our State. I take it that the most effective plan would lie for the several County Allian ces from the Sub-Alliances, tocanvass the matter at an early day, and thus become organized, so that by the first of Novem ber each County will be able to know what will be shown, and at what Railroad Sta tion shipments will be made. Railroads require prepayment of freight, but upon its return to the original point of shipment, with the Certificate of the Secretary that the same had been on ex hibition, the amount will he refunded. I will be pleased to furnish a copy of the Premium List to all who may apply Tfie Mr Institute. Founded 1867.
