Port Hope, Perth, Otâ€" towa, Guelph, Hamilion, Nelson, Waâ€" terloo, Brantford and had proved of great social importance paving . the way for the desired provinewide orâ€" ganization which was established in 1846. In that year, under the auspices o7 the Agriculture Association of Upâ€" per Canada, a fair was held in Toronâ€" to which today is of a worldâ€"wide nl ‘u mgricultural socteties, and in 1839 the Provincial Parlisment of Upper Canada made an allowance of 100 pounds ($500) to encourage the estab lishment of agricultural societies.

However that may be, the first agricultural society, with accompanying fair, to be reported in Upper Canada in 1791 on the separa tion of the province with Lower Canâ€" ada was the Niagara Agricultural Soâ€" clety. Similar societies soon spread to other parts of the province. and in the year 1806 at York (Toronto) an atâ€" tempt was made to form a province wide society, In 1822 the great fair at Queenston was intended as the tirst allprovince show, but was not incon veniently crowded. Throughout the past 140 years, the various governments, Dominion and Provineial, have regarded fairs with more than a kindly eye as a means The agricultural society of Canada Before the first Canadian census was taken in 1666, the fun of the fair was relegated mostly to private celeâ€" bration after the barter of _ pease, hemp, fresh, and dry cod, saited saiâ€" mon, cels, seal and porpoise oil. clapâ€" boards and planks, drugget, boiting eloth, cloth made from nettles, serge, leather and furs at Quebec, Three Ri vers or Montreal while later as the reâ€" sulte of the establishment of agricul« tural societies in both Lower and in Upper Canada, agricultural fairs blosâ€" somed out into full social economic and political institutions, i In no country has the agriculturat fair been a greater factor in social and economic progress than in Canâ€" ada.
