SOCIETY

SOCIETY.
The Agricultural Society of the County OF
Kenosha held it's Twenty-second Annual
Fair az the Fair Grounds in Bristol on the
18th, 18th, and 10th days of September, 1872.
The days were pleasant and all that could be
wished. The entries were about the same as
last year, being 667. So far as the quality of
stock was concerned, and that Of manufac-
tured articles, they were first rate. Mr.. VIM.
Rhodes exhibited probably the best stock,
both cattle and sheep, In the State, if not in
the West. Mr.. s. w. Benson of Walworth
County, exhibited some very nice long wool
sheep. Mr.. H. GODDARD of Burlington. ex-
hibiJed some fine Devon cattle. Our society
do not consider the Devon stock the best for
PROPAGATION and did rot offer any premiums
for that breed, but the Discretionary Judges
awarded him premiums In the show of
horses large number of entries were made,
and good horses and colts were on the ground.
In farming implements the number was
small. The Ladies' Department was fully
represented. The Hall was splendid. The
ladies have done well, if the gentlemen had
done as well, our Fair would have exceeded
any previous year. In horticultural and gar
den products we were sorry they were so
small. Our county has done well, and can
do well again in the fruit and garden depart
ment. Farmers, let this year be the last
that so little interest is taken in the success
ofour Agricultural Society. Our Society
have been successful as to the financial part,
the expenses have been light, and receipts
sufficient to cancel all obligations of the So
Ciety. The officers of 9he Society excluded
all intoxicating liquors from the grounds.
No disturbance or unnecessary confusion
was manifested, and everything passed off
quietly, and to the satisfaction of nearly all.
Below we give the premiums as awarded to
