244 WISCONSIN STATE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. 
REPORT OR COMMITTEE. 
Your Committee regret, that, in making the above awards 
of premiums, they have been compelled to travel all over the 
Grounds at least one hundred times, in order to find the ani¬ 
mals and properly arrange them. Sheep, hogs, and cattle 
were found promiscuously mixed together, and no Superin¬ 
tendent of the department was either visible or findable. Your 
Committee feel satisfied, therefore, that, from the hasty man¬ 
ner in which they were compelled to make an examination of so 
many kinds of sheep, many errors must, almost necessarily 
have been committed. We have awarded premiums to nearly 
every sheep on the Grounds ; some of which were very fine 
animals indeed, and some quite inferior. 
But we have no time now to make either special comments 
or prepare an elaborate general report. 
Respectfully submitted, 
GEO. C. PRATT, CKn.
