REPOET OF THE COMMITTEE ON LONG WOOLED SHEEP. 



Your Committee on Long and Middle Wool Sheep, beg leave 

 to submit the following report : 



The yearling Leicestershire Buck, entered by N. B, Clapp of 

 Kenosha, is one of perfect symmetry of form, and fine size ; and 

 entitled to the first premium. Mr. Clapp entered also one 

 Southdown Buck, two years old; three Ewes, two years old; 

 three Buck Lambs, and three Ewe Lambs, which are all entitled 

 to the first premium. We furthermore take much pleasure in 

 saying, that the Southdowns are a breed of sheep well worthy 

 of the attention of the farmers of Wisconsin ; and if they would 

 breed more of them, they would find their profits of farming 

 greater. In our opinion, Mr. Clapp has as good Southdowns as 

 we have ever seen.
