DEAR TIDIES : Judging from the remarks in your issue of last week anent the arrange - meat which existed between the South Huron Agricultural Society and the Stephen and Usborne Branch for the holding of the recent show in Exeter, some persons have misinformed you. The arrangement between these two societies was as follows : The County Society receives from the Branch society the sum of $800. For this the County society pays the prize list, also the expenses of the show, such as printing, care -takers, assistants, judges, &c. This year the prizes awarded amount to $915 and the other expenses to about $75,, thus making the outlay of the County society, in connection with the show, $990, while they only receive from the Branch $S00. It will thus be seen that the Branch society makes at least $190 by amalgamating with the County society. The Branch receives all the gate receipts and other receipts from the show together with members' subscriptions and Government grant. Hoping that, in justice to both societies, you will publish this plain statement of facts, 'I ani Yours &c., M Y. MoLce.N, Secy. S. H. Ag'l Soc'y. [The mention the Made of thearrange- ment as existed between the two socie- ties is substantially correct and we could have gone farther. The County society has only some ninety standing members -as per statement of the secretary - while the Stephen & Usborne Society has nearly five hundred. The . show this year was run entirely under the auspices and control of the County society and all now members were put. down as County, members. This year. the County Society's membership in this way numbered about 300, which in itself represents` $300. This amount together with the $800 the county society received from the branch society, made its total receipts $1,100. De ducting $990 from the above amount, leaves a surplus in the ,county treasury of $110. The branch society with its membership of 450 represents $450, and, added to this, the gate receipts, $600, make +a total of $1,050. From this it pays the county $800, leavinga balance 2 been of $ 50. Now had the show bee held under the auspices of the ' local society it would have been, the gainer by a con- siderable amount. The gate receipts $600, its regular membership $450 and incidental membership, at the least, $200, make a total of $1,250. The expenses and prize honey under local auspices would not have been more than $900, which, deducted from the total receipts leaves a balance of $450, instead. of $250 As is the case under this year's arrangement. There is another im- portant feature against the amalgama- tion. Wo will suppose the weather proves unfavorable to the success of the show and it is et decided -failure'; yet the local society is compelled to give the county the sum agreed upon, even if one-fifth of the amount was not realized. In any event, under the arrangements betweori,the two societies for years, the county society is protected against loss,irl its being sure of receiving' from $800 to $1,000 from the Branch society. Previous to this year the County society got $1,000, and , it was this ,year very willing to accept the offer of t 800, Bo. Tanis.] AN INTIIRESTING REPORT.
