Home of the Rogers, now occupied by Aaron Rogers. haps it may seem a singular fact to some of the exhibitors, perhaps it may seem strange to some of the members of the Board that in a city of 500,000 inhabitants no butcher could be found that was suitable for a judge at this Fat Stock Show. Or, if none of these practiced butchers here were suitable, that there might not have been found at the Union Stock Yards, among some of the men who are buying and shipping thousands upon thousands of these higher qual- ity of bullocks, one or two men that might have been suitable to act as judges on these better qualities of cattle. Especially does this seem singular, when one of the members (J. P. Reynolds) is a resident of Chicago, has a large experience, and is eminently intelligent on stock matters; and another (H. D. Emery) who has been a resident of Chicago for more than a quarter of a century, and the editor of the leading journal of the West during all this time. These gentlemen have been mem- bers of the State Board for many years and are probably among the oldest members. When these facts are stated, there will be many who will be surprised that there should not have been found two or three competent men in the great metropolis of the state, the greatest live stock market in the worlds and that none but country butchers could be found that would meet the requirements of the Board.
