OUR FAIR.

The Mower County Fair is coming to the front in regard to cattle and horse exhibits, and the executive committee are making extensive preparations to accommodate a larger number than heretofore. The Cosgrove Live Stock Co., of Le Sueur, Minn., will exhibit the finest herd of Hereford cattle in the northwest. Wild Eyes, at the head of the herd, will surprise everybody, and is worth going a long ways to see. The citizens of Mower county should spare no pains or time to assist in making the coming fair second to no district fair of the State.
