The Potter Journal

The County Agricultural Society held a meeting on Tuesday evening of Court week, and was briefly and pertinently addressed by Judge Galbraith, Messrs. John S. Mann, J. M. Hamilton, Dr. F. Glass, Capt. R. J. Mills and Isaac P. Howe Esq., of Bingham.

Many things were said by all of these gentlemen, which we would have been glad to have noted down for the benefit of those farmers not in town, as well as those who were in town, but failed for some cause or other, to show their faces at the meeting. We think that had they been present, as they should have been, they would hereafter have taken more interest in the all-important subject there discussed. There is but one more regular meeting of the Society previous to the Fair, (Tuesday evening of September Court week), when we hope to see every member of the Society, as well as every farmer in the county, who can possibly make it convenient, present. Notwithstanding an apparent lack of interest on the part of our farmers, the Society is fast increasing in members and strength, and we feel confident that it will embrace a thousand active members before its second annual Fair takes place next year.
