364 STATE BOARD OP AGRICULTURE. 



Some alterations should be made in the stables, which I have out- 

 lined in a letter to the chairman of your business committee and to 

 your incoming president. 



I believe it would be a pleasing feature and facilitate a satisfactory 

 showing of the different classes if the horses were judged on the infield 

 opposite the grand stand. All of which is respectfully submitted. 



Yours truly, 



W. W. COLLIER, 

 Superintendent Horse Department. 



Speed department Michigan State Fair 190.5.
