The state fair al Salem opened under the most favorable auspices Monday morning and with the largest exhibits and largest attend ance of any fair yet recorded at Salem. With the exception of a few minor details, which are yet un finished, the morning’s openiug was well-timed, and the exhibits were open for the inspection of the visitors. The stock exhibits are all staged for the weekly show and one to pass a thorough judgment on them would be compelled to visit the barns for at least two days for that purpose. In addition to the stock and agricultural exhibits there is an exceedingly large poultry display. ' I K YO U N G ♦ I ATTORNEY AT L A W NEW FLORAL EXH IBIT. 15 o0 thousand, board measure....
