This is the month of county fairs. Last week Wilkes had its. Tomorrow those at Winston and WaynesviHe begin, ' There will be many, ' some of them of superior excellence, as for instance those at Charlotte, Salisbury, Winston, Ghreensboro and that of Wake county, at Raleigh, in favor of which the State discriminates by giving it, alone, an appropriation. The county fairs in North Caroli na are multiplying and it is well that they are. They promote a general rivalry among the. farmers, are occasions of sooial gathering, and do good in a great many ways, one of which is in the amusement they afford to people who have too little relaxation from the toil and monotony of life.

Ev-ry arrangement possible for the accommodation and entertain ment of all visitors to the fair has been perfected, especially for the farmeis and others who attend and wish a safe and convenient place to put their wagons, buggies and stock. The large wooded sec tion in the western corner of the enclosure has been set apart for this purpose, so all who wish can bring on the inside their vehicles and hitch their stock without ex tra charge. Plenty of good fresh water will be near at hand for man and beast. The fair will be clean and up- to-date in every rpspect and there will be nothing to keep any good person away. The admission fee is small, too small, in fact, for the many attractions to be seen. Take a day off and see the Big Fair. , - - Wra JI1II 5 &c I H
