AGRICULTURAL FAIRS

Within some few years past, the agricultural interests of the county have been greatlyaided by the means of agricultural fairs and shows, at which not only the productsof the field, cereal and vegetable, and horses and cattle, have been exhibited tothe public, but every new invention connected with cultivation has been brought tothe notice of the farmer.

Not alone have we our great national fair, but we have also our State fairs, countyfairs, and even town fairs, in every quarter of the Union. The value of exhibitionsof this character cannot be over appreciated. They are more instrumental in spreadinga knowledge of agricultural science, as well as creating a generous rivalry amongour farmers than any other means which could be adopted. The finest breed of horses,the best cattle, sheep, and hogs, the rarest poultry, and the richest specimens ofgrain, green crops and fruits, are always to be found at these fairs. The amountof money expended upon them, for getting them up and for prizes cannot fall shortof from a million to a million and a half of dollars annually.

This subject is recalled to mind just now by the fact that a movement has been notonly started, but is already far advanced, by liberal subscriptions, to make Cedarburgthe location of a fair of this kind for the six towns viz, Grafton, Cedarburg, Mequon,Granville, Germantown and Jackson, as being the most central and easiest of access.

It is probably that all the agricultural fairs of this year will receive a greatlyincreased interest, and will attract a more numerous attendance than ever, in consequenceof the prospective abundance of the crops. The farmers are elated at the prospect,they feel rich in advance in contemplation of their well-stored garners, and will,no doubt, visit the fairs in much larger numbers than usual.

CONTRADICTION

West Bend, May 28, 1880

To the Editor of the Cedarburg Enterprise.

Dear Sir:

I observe in looking over your last issue, you have been misinformed in regard tothe fight between the WEIL's and myself. I will give you a true report as the trialwill prove.

While in LEMKE's saloon, on the 22nd inst., I was invited by an old friend to takea glass of beer with him. Geo. WEIL, who happened to be with him spoke up and said"he cannot drink with me," and the next moment called me names too profanefor publication. I then said that my friend invited me to drink with him and he wouldpay for it. Then Geo. WEIL's brother, a young lawyer here, spoke up and said, "Lethim alone, I can whip him alone," and at the same time repeating the same foullanguage.

I then left the WEIL's when I saw my life was threatened and went to Jacob HAMBACHand told him to get my revolver, which he had in his home, over said saloon. We thenstarted for my home, and when about one-quarter of the way, the WEIL's came behindme unawares, and said, "Now e have got them," repeating at the same timethe same foul language. At the next moment I received a heavy blow on the back ofmy head from some heavy weapon, followed by one striking me with his fist, and thenI fell. I then raised from the ground and tried to defend myself with my cane. Geo.WEIL got me down a second time and I received more heavy blows on my shoulders andarm.

About this time lawyer WEIL, his brother, took HAMBACH by the throat and he toldWEIL to let him alone or he would shoot, but WEIL continued his hold, whereupon HAMBACHfired three shots. Then the WEIL's left their victims and ran.

That is a true statement of the fact, the decision of the Justice Andrew MARTIN willprove for to-day, the WEIL's were fined $5.00 and costs each, and placed under bondsof $100 each to keep the peace for six months.

Yours truly,
Otto BOESEWETTER

She was coming along and not noticing the opening where aportion of the bridge had been taken away - beckoning a little dog that she had withher - not looking ahead of her at the moment she reached the opening and fell beforeshe was aware of her danger. She fell head foremost a distance of about ten feet,striking her head upon the rocks. The workmen did not observe her until she fell.Mr. RETTBERG, the contractor, at once picked her up and though she had broken herneck, but on bringing her to the store, found that life was not extinct and restorativeswere at once applied and in course of an hour, was by herself again. All the injuryshe sustained was a gash on her head which she received in the fall, and wherefromthe blood profused freely.

AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY

There has been a great deal said of late (by parties that we know don't mean to doCedarburg any harm) about the Agricultural society project that is at present beingworked up for the towns of Cedarburg, Grafton, Mequon, Jackson, Germantown and Granville.As a great many of our readers are perhaps not yet aware as to how the society willdo its business, and that they may be misinformed regarding the management, we undertaketo give them an inside view as to its management. The following is the plan the associationwill carry on business:

First - To have a specified premium list published at least a month before the holdingof the fair - giving the amount of premium of each article in each class.

Second - To pay premiums in full as advertised.

The above plan will insure the exhibitor that he will receive a prize of some kind,and he will just know what and how much he will received.

Each person will also receive a premium list that if he intends bringing somethingto exhibit, he can at once see what he will receive before he comes to the fair.

The cattle fair at Grafton last Monday was unmistakably one of the most paying fairsfor the business men and sellers of stock that was experienced in that burg for along time.

Over twenty horses exchanged hands withinan hour, all of which a good price was paid for.

Horse dealers from Chicago were present, buying up everything in the line of horsefleshthat could be bought. While at Grafton on the above day, we heard some business menremark that it was unmistakably one of the most successful fairs for years.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE BRASS BAND QUESTION

A proposition was made to some of our musical inclined young men in regard to organizinga brass band here by Mr. G. BACH, of Milwaukee, last Thursday, that ought to be wellconsidered before it is cast aside. The proposition is very fair, and a better opportunityto organize a brass band in this place will never be had in a long time to come.The Grafton boys will assist in organizing a good band here if enough help cannotbe found in this place.

Can't Cedarburg start a brass band? is a question that is very often asked us byoutsiders. Well, Cedarburg has got good musical talent, but there is a lack of energy.Strike while the iron is hot, boys.

A meeting of the young men of this place ought to be called at once and we can assurethem that if they have any intention of organizing, this will be the best opportunityever offered them.

If an ordinance prohibiting swimmingin broad daylight near a public thoroughfare cannot be passed, then let some of ourcitizens take the matter in hand and horsewhip the transgressors.

STOCK FAIR

The fact that Chicago horse buyers were here and were paying good prices for horsesdrew an immense throng of farmers to this place last Monday, fair day, with horses- not much else was to be seen but horses. Three carloads of horses were bought insidetwo hours. As high at $250 a piece was paid for them and nothing less than $125 forany kind of a horse.

Of cattle there was nothing to speak of but what there was, was sold very readily.

Cedarburg never had such a lively fair as last Monday, and we don't think will haveanother so well attended as that of last Monday this summer.
