As wc have before stated tluse annual exhibitions have been of immense lienellt in many ways, and it will show a lamentable lack of enterprise to let them fail for Ida Register. From the above extract it will be seen w hat Darlington is prepared to do in the way of tine horses, and we trust that all our jicople will take I enough interest in the Fair to see to it that, in every other department, we are as well represented as we w ill be in the one alluded to. Toexhibit articles just simply for the premiums, is to say the least, rather a selfish view to take of it. It is clearly the duty of everyone to help the wvhibi- tion, and in doing this wc help the State anil, of course, ourselves, for w hatever tends to adierlise our re- lack of sup]iort.
