The public meeting held at Mitchell on October 16th was well attended 

 and discussed fully the question of an Inspection Act, and a motion favoring 

 the same was carried unanimously at the meeting. 



Many of the stallion owners suggested that if stallions were Under 

 license a'nd stallion owners had one-third of the insurance fee down at the 

 time of service, it would put a stop to the breeding of a lot of mares that are 

 not likely to get in foal. 



Waterloo. 



The town of Berlin was first visited. Here, and in the adjoining ter- 

 ritory there were found two pure-bred Hackneys, two Clydesdales (one of 

 them a grade), two Percherons, and a Coach grade. With two exceptions 

 the standard is not high and one horse is not sound. ISTone of the horses 

 stand at less than |10, while the highest price is |15. There are 460 mures 

 here, mostly general purpose and light, the general average weight of which 

 is 1,100 lbs., and quality only fair.
