aaH MADISON, Wis, Aug II, 1881.
R. O. Judson, Esq, Secretary Minnesota State
Agricultural society:
Dear Sir: In reply to your inquiry of few
days ago in regard to the extent of our exhib-
it from here to your coming fair, would say
that it will aggregate not less than sixteen
car loads, and quite likely eighteen, made up
as follows
Kiser Brothers, of Oregon, will take
two car loads of Short Horns and one of
Berkshire and Poland China hogs. These
gentlemens' stock are well known to the
Minnesota breeders, having been successful
competitors in the show ring of both st.. Paul
and Minneapolis in 1878 and 1879. Their
rivals will find them more formidable COM
petitors this season than when last shown in
Minnesota. By judicious selection and care
full breeding their herds have been much i'm
proved during the last two years, and to-day
are unquestiOnably the choicest herd In Wis
consin. Their Berkshire herd was founded by
the purchase of four imported
establishment at Branford. Canada, and are as
fine lot as can be found anywhere in the
Western States.
Mr.. Morse, of Verona, will be on hand with
two car loads of beautiful Devons. Mr..
NOrse's herd has for years been regarded az
the superior of any in Wisconsin, and quite
the equal of any in the Northwest. This herd
will unquestionably be found to be among the
stars in the bovine section at Rochester this
season.
Secretary Geo. E. Bryant, of this place, will
put in an appearance with his usual fine show
of Jerseys. There is no finer lot, nor any more
fashionable, either In breeding or color, than
in this old established herd of our worthy sec
rotary.
Dexter Curtis, of this city, will be heard
from with car load of Cotswold sheep and
his trOtting team, Lady Hess and Kate How
ard. This is without doubt the fastest pole
team in the West. They are in fine fix, and
are showing more foot this season than ever
before. The team that beats them will have
to put in their heats under $3.50, sure
Chettan Clark, of this place, will have on
exhibition twenty head of high-bred trotters,
which have recently been selected with great
care and regardless of expense, in the best
breeding districts of Kentucky and New York.
Mr.. Clark's draft from his stud at Monona
park will form superb lot, and will doubt
less be among the leading attractions in the
equine department esq
MIR. Boyce, OF Brooklyn. will show up With
two car loads of Clydesdale horses,
mares and youngsters and one car
load OF Poland china hogs. Mr..
BOyce's animals are in fine flesh and good
show trim. Those that have to cope with
him, will find him as usual, formidable rival
in the show rings.
Clinton Rabbit, of Beloit, will join the par
ty with three as fine and feety trotting stall.
lions as are to be found anywhere in the coun-
try. '
Beatie and Lyall, of Verona, will make
things interesting for exhibitors in the draft
horse department They will exhibit four
aged Clydesdale stations, one three years-old
and one two-years-sold; also some mares and
colts. Their display will be really meritori-
GUS one. The ANIMALS will all appear in fine
form, and seem to be quite equal to repeti-
ton of their triumph of two and three years
ago in the show rings of Wisconsin and Min
nesota, while in the hands and owned by the
writer. ~ IT,
A. O. Fox, of Oregon, will be found in the
sheep department with his beautiful flock of
Shropshire downs, not a few of which have
just landed from England. Mr.. Fox importing
them direct in person. In addition to Mr..
Fox's recent importation, he will exhibit ami
| mails of his own breeding and handling, as ripe
as pears and as uniform as peas, evidencing,
although yet young BREEDER taste and know
ledge of his business to a degree rarely found
among our older and most noted breeders.
Joseph O'Malley, of Westport. will also be
found in the sheep department with very
choice flock of Cotswold flock that will,
for mutton and wool combined, be found quite
| the equal of any ever exhibited in the North
west. E
Ogleyie Bros. will exhibit flock of Cots
| wolds, which, for harmony of type, great size,
with wealth of flesh and wool, will be the sur
prise of many and admiration of all. Part of
| their exhibit are now on their way to this
| country, being bought for them at the recent
royal show at Derby. a
George Wiley, of Leeds, will make the
swine department attractive with his
famous herd of Poland Chinas, too well known
throughout the Northwest to require any
special mention from me at this time. Their
| excellence will soon be recognized and appreci-
ated by hog fanciers when seen.
| These in all will fill all, if not more, than
the number of cars. / have stated, and con-
spicuous as must this shipment be among the
attractions expected at your coming State ex-
hibitiou at Rochester, the first week of Sep.
TENDER, they will be but triling compared
with what Dane county proposes to do for the
Minnesota State Agricultural society this sea
son. Old Dane is going to furnish you with
your orator, in the person of our gifted and
talented townsman, Col. VIM. F. Villas, who
as popular speaker and finished orator has
but few equals and no superiors in the nation
Yours etc., R. B. OGLEvIE.
