Exhibition—Superintendents' jreports. 173 
who has been so long and favorably known as a long-wool breeder. 
Wm. Rhodes of Salem, made a good exhibition, and G. H. Lam- 
berton of Lamberton, had several pens of Cotswold sheep from 
his well known farm. F. Ludington and F. S. Capron did honor 
to their flocks, and A. F. Pratt of Waukesha, had several entries 
of good sheep. 
Class 21 —Long Wool , not Cotswold. 
In this cl ass the exhibition was not as large as in class 20, but 
it was good. Here again E. Porter made a fine exhibition, and C. 
C. Parks had several pens of excellent sheep. G. H. Lamberton 
made several entries of good sheep. John Mathews, of Darling¬ 
ton, had several entries, and among them was probably the largest 
buck ever shown in the state. Peter Wakem of Madison, had a 
few good ones on exhibition, and also L S. Hazletine of Richland 
Center, and a few others.

Class 22— Southdowns. 
C. C. Parks was also well represented in this class by some good 
sheep, and G. H. Daubner made a successful exhibition. M. 
Tower, of Omro, was represented by some good specimens from 
his flock, and so also were Peter Wakem, Luther Rawson, of Oak 
Creek, and Thomas Hatchard and G. H Lamberton. 
Class 23 —Fat Sheep. 
E. Porter, C. C. Parks and F. S. Capron monopolized the 
honors, and, in this class we find the goat obtruding himself 
among the sheep, as of old, although it was said he should be 
“separated, and on the left hand.” George Bryant, I. S . Hazle- 
tine, J. Mathews, A. F. Pratt, and James Toav were the exhibit- 
ors. But, as the paradise of the goat has lately been found in 
one of the isles of the Pacific, where he is “ monarch of all he 
surveys,” we do not look for a very rapid development of the 
goat interest in this country, except in perhaps certain localities, 
although the wool of the Cashmere goat is truly valuable and sus¬ 
ceptible of being manufactured into a great variety of dress goods.
