Comments. 



This competition, which is due to the si^ggestion and the generosity 

 of Mr. A. G. iSchultz, sets the competitors a more severe task than the 

 preceding one; every paddock of fallow must be exhibited for two years, 

 and the crops on those fallows for a like period. Most of the com- 

 petitors, Avith the exception of H. Reichelt and P. Bone, lost heavily 

 because some of their paddocks Averc not in show condition. 



In conclusion, I would like to commend your able secretary, on 

 whom devolves the many onerous tasks necessary for the success of the 

 competition, on his capable assistance and efficient arrangements. Xor 

 must I omit to thank those whose hos})itality added materially to the 

 pleasure of the trip, especially in the case of those who j)rovided means 

 of locomotion. All competitors showed an earnest desire to co-operate 

 in the work by the readiness with which they answered numerous ques- 

 tions. 



Might I be allowed to wish the society every success in the future 

 in its pioneering efforts for "Ihetter fanning," "hetter business.'' and 

 "hetter living."
