This society was organized Janury 6, 1851. The society now occupies
spacious grounds in the northeast portion of the city. Suitable
buildings are erected for the exhibition of various articles.
Having good stalls and pens, every facility is offered for the
successful handling and training of horses while on exhibition,
or for the trial of speed. A good one-half mile track is connected
with the grounds of the society. A general interest in the success
of the society is manifested by the citizens of the County, and
their yearly exhibitions are second to none of their sister counties. |
