In the harness department our towns- men Courtice & Jeffery made a splendid display which was greatly admired and added much to the attraction of the Show, The name of the establisment stands deservedly high for the superi- ority of its harness, both in make and material. The hall was a credit not alone to the society, or the exhibitors but to the township at large. In the prize list below our readers will find what the judges thought of the exhibits. The road now connecting Onrtwright and the Port is just about as con- venient and direct as it could be and it 1s greatly to the interest of all con- cerned that the road be kept in first class order and this may be accomplish ed without a great expenditure of either labor or money and the cheapest way of keeping it in order is to prevent it from going out of order. Don't let a hole that a hat full of gravel would fill up remain till it requires a wheel- barrow or wagon load to fill it. A committee should be appointed whose duty it is not to see that the road is kept passable but that it is kept in first class order a pleasure to pass over even with heavy loads, The large numbers from Port Perry who attend- ed the show on Friday last weat far to prove the great convenience and de- sirability of the road. The better con- dition in which this road is i e more hn and profitable will it prove for all doing business over it, the road cannot fail in proving mutual- ly advantageous to the large com. munities which it connects, HORSES --pravenT.
