All exhibits must be in their places by 10 a. m. of the second day. Those requiring extra space for their exhibits should apply early to the Secretary. JXJDOBS. A list of competent judges is selected, with especial reference to their fitness for the several departments. All Judges will call at Secretary's office at 10 a. m. on the second day, and receive their books and complete their work as soon as possible and report to the Secretary. They must award no pre- mium to an exhibit which is not decidedly meritorious, and when only one entry has been made for a prize, it should be awarded first or secoiid, as in their opinion it shall deserve. They are requested to report to the Secretary any meritoriouB exhibits on their several lists to which they have not awarded prizes, but which are deemed by them worthy of mention. They must not award prizes to any exhibit to which the entry card is not attached. They must exclude from competition any person who in any way, whether in person or by his agents or servants, interfers with them during their adjudications, or shows any disre- spect to them, or who violates any rule or regulation of this Society. Any Judge who may suspect the pedigree of, or representations made concerning, any animal or article will at once report the same to the Superintendent of that department, who will cause the mat- ter to be investigated p,t once by referring to the Secretary's books, and taking other evidence. All Judges' books shall remain with the Superintendent of the department when not in actual use. Judges will examine their rules and premium lists with care. Judges will receive free passes to all privileges on application to the Secretary. PK.EJM:itJl^S. The Premiums are designated by cards ; red meaning first, white second, and blue third.

All stock and articles for competition must be on the ground at 10 a. m., the 2d day, September 8th, and entered in the name of the real owner, and remain on the ground until the close of the Fair. Transgression of this rule will incur forfeiture of any pre- mium awarded. No animal or article will be entitled to compete for more than pne premium, except as a part of a collection, special premiums and in Division 1, Class 9. All protests must be in writing, must state plainly the cause of complaint or appeal, and must be delivered to the President with- in six hours after the cause of protest. No person having entered anything for competition will be al- lowed to withdraw or change the entry after the first day of the Fair, nor may any one refuse any premium awarded, and prize cards and ribbons must be displayed during the Fair. Any in- fraction of these rules will incur the forfeiture of all premiums awarded to the exhibitor and such further penalty as the Execu- tive Committee may order. Those who wish to explain in regard to their exhibits may do so through the Superintendent of that department, and must not interfere with the Judges. After having properly entered their articles, exhibitors must themselves see to their delivery to the Superintendent of the ap- propriate department, so that tbey may be in their places and properly ticketed by Tuesday at 10 o'clock a. m. They are like- wise required to attend to their articles or animals while on exhi- bition, and truthfully answer such questions as the Judges may deem essential to a correct estimate of their relative value. All persons making entries should make themselves acquainted with the premium list and regulations and be their own judges as to the Division in which to enter. No article will receive a premium if removed without permis- sion from the Superintendent before the close of the Fair. The Superintendent will have the entire control and manage- ment of the grounds and buildings and the general supervision of all stock and articles exhibited. Forage for stock and abundance of good water will be furnished free of charge. The police appointed by the Superintendent will keep order upon the grounds and see that the rules are faithfully executed and keep a vigilant night watch during the exhibition. No horses will be allowed on the track during the trials of speed, or inspection of horses and cattle, except those competing for premiums. The Society reserves the right to withhold the premiums awarded, in every case in which it shall appear to the Executive Committee, that the regulations have not been complied with, or that fraud or deception has been practiced or attempted. All officers and employes are required to wear badges during the Fair. Peddlers will be allowed to vend their wares within the grounds on obtaining a license from the Secretary, but will not be per- mitted to occupy the streets in the neighborhood of the grounds. Copies of this Premium List will be cheerfully sent to any ad- dress, on application to the Secretary. Foints in th© Sliort-Hor-n. Oovv. POINTS. COUNTS. 1 Head — Small, lean and bony, tapering to the muzzle 3 2 Face — Somewhat long, the fleshy portion of the nose of a light, delicate color.'. 3 8 Eye — Prominent, bright and clear; "prominent," from accumulation of adipose substance in the socket, indicating a tendency to lay on f at ; "bright," as an evidence of good disposition; "clear," as a guaranty of good health 3 • 4 HoRHB AND Ears— Horns should be light in substance, ■waxy in color, and symmetrically set on the head ; the ears should be large, thin and with considera- ble action _ . 1 6 Neck — Rather short thaji long, tapering to the head, clean in the throat and full at its base, thus cov- ering and filling out the points of the shoulders.. 2 6 Chest — Broad from point to point of the shoulders, deep from the anterior dorsal vertebrae to the floor of the sternum, and both round and full just back of the elbows, or, in other words, "thick through the heart" _.... 14 7 Bmsket — Deep and projecting, indicating a disposition to lay on fat 5 8 Shoulder— Where weight, as in the Short-Horn, is an object, should be somewhat upright and of a good width at the points, with the blade b(5ne sufficient- ly curved to blend its upper portion smoothly with the crops 4 9 Chops — Must be full and level with the shoulders and back 8 10 Back, Loin and Hips— Should be broad and wide, form- ing a straight and even line from the neck to the setting on of the tail, the hips or hocks round and well covered 8 .11 Rumps— Laid up high, with plenty of flesh on their ex- tremities 5 13 Pelvis— Should be large, indicated by the width of the hips fas already mentioned) and the breadth of the twist *. 3 13 The Twist— Should be so well filled out in its "seam" as to form an even and wide plain between the thighs .. 3 14 The Quarters — Long, straight and well developed down- ward 5 15 The Carcass — Round the ribs nearly circular and ex- tending well back _ 4 16 The flanks — Deep, wide and full, in proportion to con- dition _ . 3 17 The Leo — Short, straight, and standing squarely with the body _ 3 18 The Plates — Of the belly strong, thus preserving nearly. a straight underline 3 19 The UobER— Should be pliable and thin in its texture, reaching well forward, roomy behind, teats wide apart, and of convenient size 3 20 The Tail— Flat and broad at the root, but fine. in its cord, and placed high up on a lelel with the rump 3 31 The Coat— Should be thick, short and mossy, with longer hair in winter : fine, soft and glossy in summer.. 3 33 Carriage— Of an animal gives style and beauty ; the walk should be square, the-step quick, and head up 3 23 Quality — On this the thriftiness, the feeding properties and the value of the animal depend, and upon the touch of this quality rests in a good measure the grazier's and the butcher's judgment. If the "touch" be good some deficiency^ of form may be excused ; but if it be hard and stiff, nothing can compensate for so unpromising a feature. In raising the skin from the body, between the thumb and finger, it should have a soft, fiexible and substantial feel ; and when beneath the out- spread hand, it should move easily with it under it, as though resting on a soft, elastic, cellular substance, which, however becomes firmer as the animal ripens. A thin, papery skin is objection- able, rnore especially in a cold climate 15 PKRFECTION, 100 Foints injtli© Short-Horn Btall. Most of the points desirable in the female are generally so in the male, but, of course, should be more masculine in their character as inseparable from a strong, vigorous constitution. Even a cer- tain degree of coai-.ieneBS is admissible, but then it must be so ex- clusively of a masculine description as never to be discovered in the female of his get. In contradistinction to the cow, the head of the bull may be shorter, the frontal bone broader, and the occipital flat and strong- er, that it may receive and sustain the horn ; and this latter may be excused if a little heavy at the base, so its upward form, its quality and color be right. Neither is the looseness of the skin attached to. and depending from under the jaw. to be deemed other than a feature of the sex, PHOviDED it is not extended beyond the bone, but leaves the gullet and throat clear and free from dewlap. The upper portion of the neck should be full and muscular ; for it is an indication of strength, power and constitution. The spine should be strong, the bones of the loins long and broad, and the whole muscular system wide ; and thoroughly developed over the entire frame.

AD8IT, Oaah. Ashton's Factory Filled Salt Purest Best, Cheapest. Proven by Fifty Years Experience to be the* Best Salt for Making Butter and Cheese. What we claim f or " A 9 H T O N ' S " 'S subatantiated by testi- iinonials from Dairymen and Creamerymen all over the country,! from Maine to California It is used to the exclusion of all other kinds by such enterprising firms as Makvin & Cammack, of Eooh- eeter, Minn.; the Diamond Ckbameey, of Monticello, la.; Wm. Beard & Sons, Decorah, la ; the Elgin Bdtter Co., Elgin, 111.; T. R. King. Morrison, III.; the Daklikgtons, of Penn., who sell their butter for a dollar a pound; and hundreds of others whom we could mention, did space permit. It is perfectly _pure and free from pan scales; it reaches the consumer in the original crys- tals, not being ground at the works, and is thus free from all for- eign matter. It is unequaled in its kpt-ping qualities, and imparts to the butter a flavor that no other' salt does. Being of exactly the right grain and texture to fully incorporate itself with tlie butter, it does not run off under the ladle, as the fine grained salts do, nor does it remain undissolved, as is the case with some hard, coarse salts, to make the butter gritty and unpalatable. This last named quality makes the use of "AshtOn's" * source of economy in the dairy. The salt remaining intbe butter acts as a make-weigl't, and affords a gain of from one to four per cent., as compared with the results obtained from the use of other salt. Taking this view of the case alone, say nothing of the su- periority of "Ashton's" iu strength, purity and flavor, it would be cheaper to use it. eveu if the other brands could be had for noihinq. This is not bluff, or empty assertion on our part; we are prepared to prove what we say, viz: That for Dairy Use, Other Siilts as comparetl With Ashtoii's, Have No Value, and we solicit correspondence with a view to convincing unbe- lievers.
