Annual reports of officers of the Windham County Agricultural society show that the Brooklyn fair which it conducts was successful flnnnda.:%‘ this ‘vear as well as haying arranged under many bandicaps imposed by, war-time conditions, as satisfactory uu exhibition 2s the sociely has given in a number of vears. Secretary x shall J. Frink, of Canterbury, report- ed that 312 head of cattle were shown at teh annual exhibition and that the displays in various departments were the largest and of the best quality seen at Brooklyn in years. This is particularly pleasing to'the officials, who ~faced wita fine eu- couragement, all the diffrculties that beset them in preparing the exhibition. Help tc run the fair was scarce and expensi farmers were exceedingly busy and there were many other things that would tend to discourage those who hcped to make the fair a success, but such it proved to be, and in larger measure than has often been the case in normal years. The report of Treasurer W. R. Thur- ber shows that there is a cash bu. ance on hand of $511, and that an ad- ditional $600 is due frem the state, this giving the society the satisfaetory balance of $1,111 with which to go for- ward wth. plang for next year's fair.
