A Grand Success.

Awards of Premiums.

The Fair at East Enterprise Sept. 11th to 14th, inclusive, was a success. The entries numbered 1195. Competition strong, and a good show in nearly all departments, especially so in live stock, vegetables, grains, agricultural machinery, needle work, fine arts, table comforts, and miscellaneous articles.—Articles exhibited were gathered from far and near; the extremes, perhaps, were Brooklyn, N. Y., and Louisville, Ky., but chiefly from Switzerland, Ohio, Dearborn, Ripley and Jefferson counties, Indiana, Boone, Gallatin, Carroll and Owen counties, Ky., from Cincinnati and Louisville.

The attendance at the fair was good, considering the drought and dust, and the difficulties of transportation and travel. The receipts were sufficient to pay all premiums, and not one cent went into the treasury for license for any gambling or swindling device, or for liquor privilege. If any such business was carried on it was done clandestinely, and without the sanction or consent of the Board. Large sums were refused for such privileges.—The Society rely upon the moral sentiment of the community to sustain it in this decision, and is truly grateful for the hearty support given it by exhibitors and the people at large.

THE FAIR.

A Grand Session—All Premiums Paid, and Over Seven Hundred Dollars in the Treasury.

AWARDS OF PREMIUMS.

The late Fair held by the Switzerland and Ohio County Agricultural Society was a grand success. The show was good in all departments. The articles on exhibition numbered over 900.—The attendance of the people was never better. The Society has paid off its debts, and has some $700 in its treasury, and as all surplus funds are expended in improvements, this gives promise of an enlarged track, improved stabling, additional seating room, and increased premiums. Though the officers and members of the Society have labored hard for its success, they would give all credit to the people who have so generously contributed by their presence and patronage.
