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.
