THE FARMERS' FESTIVAL.

The Harvest Festival closed at Parr Saturday evening after a two days session. The display of farm produce was limited but good. Sol Norman showed a tomato, some cabbage and celery that was fine. Mrs. Charles Burns had some very fine sweet potatoes on exhibition, in fact as fine as one could wish to see. Charles Pullins’ potatoes were very .nice. Charles Lakin and J. K. Garriott had some excellent products on show. George Wilcox was there with his big “punkin,” also S. P. Thompson with hlB speech. Everybody had a good time. Numerous premiums were awarded in the afternoon.
