were given the power to appoint their
own assistants.
The sum o. $4,000 was appropriated for
races, the classes to be arranged by the
superintendent of races A class for
yearling stations was made in classes
7, 10, -,
1t was voted to add classes for saddle
horses and ladies' drivers and also a
class for PAGERS in the single drivers.
1t was also voted to add class for
junior calves. This was dropped last
year and is placed back on the list
at the request of large number Of
breeders.
1t is expected that the dog show will
be much larger this year and will
be moved from the present
quarters to large tent.
The dairy exhibits will be judged by
an expert on score Of points, and there
will be separate classes for creamery
and dairy displays.

contests will be in charge Of the secre
tary of the county Y M. C. A.

a special committee consisting Of |
Messfs. Sears, Norton and Rogers.
1t was decided to have the winter
stock show at the government farm on
March 8. Messrs. Rogers, Hamilton
and Foote are the committee in charge.
To the uninitated the sum of $4,000
for races seems out of proportion u the
amounts set aside for other premiums,
out, as a matter of fact the actual cost
to the society is always much less than
hat as every entry costs the nominator
per cent of the purse and an additional
per cent is collected from the winners.
Il sometimes happens in stake races
hat the entry fees pay nearly all of
he amount offered to be raced for.
