 To the Housatonic Agricultural Society : 



I have the honor to report that your committee on the fine art exhibit of 

 1893 found a marked improvement over 1892. The drawing was much better, 

 and as form must ever precede color, this vi^as a step in the right direction, and 

 should be encouraged in every way possible. Last year there were only a few 

 pieces of china painting over against nearly fifty this year, and two of the col- 

 lections would have honored any exhibit of Ceramics Oils and water colors 

 were also well represented, Susax Frances Hopkins.
