THE EXHIBITION. 



The Cattle Show and Fair was held at Danvers, Sept. 26th 

 and 27th, 1876. 



The entries in the several departments of the show were as 

 follows : — 



107 cattle of all kinds. 

 90 horses and colts. 

 60 swine. 

 38 sheep. 

 84 coops poultry. 

 23 ploughing teams. 



7 agricultural implements. 

 14 carriages. 



8 dairy. 



49 bread and honey. 

 About 1500 plates fruit. 



124 entries flowers. 



75 *' vegetables. 

 117 " counterpanes, etc. 



4 " articles manufactured from leather. 

 10 " manufactured goods. 

 40 " children's work. 

 177 " fancy and works of art. 



As the above list shows, the exh.bition in nearly every de- 

 partment was very full and complete, the exception being a 

 falling off somewhat of the number of cattle from the last 

 show. 



The show of fruits, flowers, and domestic products, at the 

 Peabody Institute, is believed to be larger than ever before, 

 especially that of fruits.
