Puslinch Fall Fair October 12th 1899. The
Puslinch fall fair, which was held on Friday, was the best in the history of the
show. The weather was splendid and the
township and the city were well represented.
The proceedings were enlivened by the Silver Creek Band of Puslinch
is noted for its large root crop and the display was the finest ever shown
there. In turnips there were 18
entries in one class and 15 in another, 12 entries in carrots and 16 in
mangolds. The latter were of a great
size. Two of them were weighed and one
tipped the scales at 38 pounds and another at 36 pounds. The samples of grain were all very fine
with the exception of the peas, which were hardly up to the average. |
