EEPORT OF COMMITTEE ON AGRICULTUEAL SOCIETIES. 



[Read and accepted at the Annual Meeting, Jan. 8, 1907.] 



Your committee find the reports of inspectors of the sev- 

 eral fairs show no violations of the regulations in regard 

 to objectionable attractions, and that favorable weather in 

 almost all fairs enabled the societies to show a favorable 

 balance. 



We are still of opinion that those societies are safest which 

 limit their attractions to those of very moderate cost, and 

 those do best work Avhich are most particular in the charac- 

 ter of the exhibitions and side shows that are allowed upon 

 their grounds, and which are prompt to remove any ques- 

 tionable in character that may have gained admittance under 

 some false pretense. 



Respectfully submitted, 



WILLIAM A. KILBOURN.
