If this is so the more IB tho blame on them for we understood that they were hero on, a guarantee. A groat many from hero attended the county fair tit Humboldt from one to throe days each. Tho writer wan there portions of two days and aa fur us our judgement goes we pronounce tho exhibits remarkably good. In racing, which la always great attraction, there was very little really good work done. Many were sadly disappointed that W.

L. Rossiug of Bode, was not there with his trotter, "Vyzunt," but he is not disposed to bring such horse to Humboldt nor anywhere olee aud trot uu exhibition mile for the "expense of shooing." In tho county stallion race Scorolluo took first money, aud In the free for all ho got second place. In tho race Thursday Col.
