The one-year period ended September 30, 2007 saw the seven-day yield of Government Money Market remaining in the same general range, from a starting yield of 4.68% to an ending yield of 4.49%. The stability in yields for much of the period was the result of the Federal Reserve Board's decision to hold the Federal Funds Rate at 5.25%, following a June 2006 rate hike. The Fund's yield drifted downward in the final few weeks of the period, following the Federal Reserve Board's surprise cut of one-half percent on September 18, 2007. Money market rates and the Federal Funds rate are closely linked, with Fed rate moves rapidly reflected in the yield of money market funds. At period end, there were mixed opinions as to whether the initial rate cut would be followed by an extended period of Fed inaction, another rate cut, or even a shift in direction back to rate hikes.
Economic Overview
The U.S. economy continued to expand over the one-year period ended September 30, 2007. As we concluded the period, mixed economic data, higher commodity prices and the subprime loan crisis dampened projections. For much of the period interest rates were steady, as the Fed held the Fed Funds rate at 5.25% following its June 29, 2006 quarter-point increase. The main driver in the bond market over the later part of the period was the subprime loan issue, and a growing concern about the valuation and liquidity of bonds and derivatives which contained subprime exposure. This was a plus for government bonds, which were seen as a haven from the problems, and which benefited from the general flight to quality.
As the financial markets roiled in August and into September, sparked by spreading problems with lower-quality loans and the subsequent collapse of a number of hedge funds, the Fed surprised the market with half-point rate cut on September 18. This buoyed investor sentiment across the board, and preliminary indicators suggest that it was successful in bringing needed liquidity to the markets.
Outlook
We see mixed signals in the economic outlook. For instance, we expect autos and housing to be a problem going forward, but these categories represent only about 9% of GDP. On the plus side, we see strength in other sectors and anticipate that business spending will increase in 2008. Corporations have ample cash on their balance sheets and earnings appear to be relatively strong. From a fundamental economic perspective, we believe the economy will hold up well going into 2008, and we're putting a relatively low probability on an imminent recession. We're particularly conscious of the employment situation, and as long as employment remains steady, the overall economy should continue to grow. The one potential concern is inflation, which we currently feel is contained. However, should inflation rear up, it would be a negative for all financial assets. In terms of monetary policy, we believe the Federal Reserve Board will be data dependent. The half-percent cut in September was a surprise, but we believe it was a calculated one, intended to give a shot in the arm to the economy and inject needed liquidity in the markets. While it will take a bit longer to play out, early indications suggest that the effort has been successful.
With money market rates having risen to attractive real returns above the rate of current inflation,

and a remaining concern over the stability of riskier bonds, the appeal of investing in the short-term government and government agency notes in Government Money Market is quite clear. We continue to manage Government Money Market to produce the best possible returns while maintaining the low risk that we believe is a chief attraction to our investors. Thank you for your continued confidence in the fund.
Sincerely,

2 Annual Report • September 30, 2007
Madison Mosaic Government Money Market September 30, 2007
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF MOSAIC GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of the Mosaic Government Money Market (the "Fund") as of September 30, 2007 and the related statements of operations for the year then ended and the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the four years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The financial highlights for the year ended September 30, 2003 was audited by other auditors. Those auditors expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights in their report dated November 11, 2003.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2007 by correspondence with the Fund's custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Mosaic Government Money Market as of September 30, 2007, and the results of its operations for the year then ended and the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and financial highlights for each of the four years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

6 Annual Report • September 30, 2007
Madison Mosaic Government Money Market
Notes to Financial Statements
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Madison Mosaic Government Money Market (the "Fund") is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, diversified investment management company. The Fund invests solely in securities issued by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities or in repurchase agreements backed by such securities. Because the Fund is 100% no-load, its shares are offered and redeemed at the net asset value per share.
Securities Valuation: Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Portfolio securities are valued at acquisition cost as adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
Investment Transactions: Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. The cost of investments sold is determined on the identified cost basis for financial statement and Federal income tax purposes.
Investment Income: Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Bond premium is amortized and original issue discount and market discount are accreted over the expected life of each applicable security using the effective interest method.
Distribution of Income: Net investment income, determined as gross investment income less total expenses, is declared as a dividend each business day. Dividends are distributed to shareholders or reinvested in additional shares as of the close of business at the end of each month. Distributions paid during the years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were $1,669,102 and $1,575,622, respectively. All distributions were paid from ordinary income and were identical for book purposes and tax purposes. As of September 30, 2007, the Fund had $1,528 of accumulated net realized losses as the only component of distributable earnings on a tax basis.
Income Tax: No provision is made for Federal income taxes since it is the intention of the Fund to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code available to investment companies and to make the requisite distribution to shareholders of taxable income which will be sufficient to relieve it from all or substantially all Federal income taxes. As of September 30, 2007, capital loss carryovers available to offset future capital gains for federal income tax purposes was $1,528 expiring September 30, 2014.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Such estimates affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Investment in Repurchase Agreements. When the Fund purchases securities under agreements to resell, the securities are held in safekeeping by the Fund's custodian bank as collateral. Should the market value of the securities purchased under such an agreement decrease below the principal amount to be received at the termination of the agreement plus accrued interest, the counterparty is required to place an equivalent amount of additional securities in safe-keeping with the Fund's custodian bank. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other registered investment companies having Advisory and Services Agreements with the same advisor, transfers uninvested cash balances into a joint trading account. The aggregate balance in this joint trading account is invested in one or more consolidated repurchase agreements whose underlying securities are U.S. Treasury or Federal agency obligations. The Fund has approximately a 0.9% interest in the consolidated repurchase agreement of $15,737,000 collateralized by
Madison Mosaic Government Money Market 7
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
$16,134,046 in United States Treasury Notes. Proceeds at maturity are $15,741,983.
3. Investment Advisory Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates. The Investment Advisor to the Fund, Madison Mosaic, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Madison Investment Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor"), earns an advisory fee equal to 0.5% per annum of the average net assets of the Fund. The fee is accrued daily and paid monthly. Since December 9, 2002, the Advisor has been irrevocably waiving 0.25% of this fee for the Fund. For the year ended September 30, 2007, the waived amount was $90,761. This waiver may end at any time.
The Advisor will reimburse the Fund for the amount of any expenses of the Fund (less certain expenses) that exceed 1.5% per annum of the average net assets of the Fund up to $40 million and 1% per annum of such amount in excess of $40 million. No amounts were reimbursed to the Fund by the Advisor for the year ended September 30, 2007.
4. Other Expenses. Under a separate Services Agreement, the Advisor will provide or arrange for the Fund to have all other necessary operational and support services for a fee based on a percentage of average net assets, other than the expenses of the Fund's Independent Trustees and auditor ("Independent Service Providers") which are paid directly based on cost and any costs associated with the Line of Credit described in Note 6. For the year ended September 30, 2007, this services fee was 0.35%. The Fund paid $10,000 directly for Independent Service Providers fees for the year ended. The Fund uses US Bancorp Fund Services, LLC as its transfer agent and US Bank as its custodian. The transfer agent and custodian fees are paid by the Advisor and allocated to the Fund pursuant to a services agreement and are included in other expenses.
5. Capital Share Transactions. An unlimited number of capital shares, without par value, are authorized. Transactions in capital shares (in dollars) were as follows:
Year Ended September 30, | ||
2007 | 2006 | |
| Shares sold | $15,024,196 | $20,107,792 |
| Shares issued in reinvestment of dividends | 1,630,009 | 1,536,688 |
| Total shares issued | 16,654,205 | 21,644,480 |
| Shares redeemed | (17,640,395) | (26,681,138) |
| Net decrease | $(986,190) | $(5,036,658) |
6. Line of Credit. The Fund has a $12 million revolving credit facility with a bank for temporary emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securities. The interest rate on the outstanding principal amount is equal to the prime rate less 0.5% (effective rate of 7.25% at September 30, 2007). The line of credit contains loan covenants with respect to certain financial ratios and operating matters. The Fund was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2007 and 2006. During the year ended September 30, 2007, the Fund did not borrow on the line of credit.
7. New Accounting Pronouncement. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" ("FIN 48"), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 provides guidance on the measurement, recognition, classification and disclosure of tax positions, along with accounting for the related interest and penalties. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the date of effectiveness. The Fund is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying the various provisions of FIN 48.
On September 15, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Standard No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("FAS 157"). FAS 157 addresses how companies should measure fair value when specified assets and liabilities are measured at fair value for
8 Annual Report • September 30, 2007
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
either recognition or disclosure purposes under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). FAS 157 is intended to make the measurement of fair value more consistent and comparable and improve disclosures about those measures. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. At this time, management believes the adoption of FAS 157 will have no material impact on the financial statements of the Fund.
Fund Expenses (unaudited).
Example: This Example is intended to help you understand your costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. See footnotes 3 and 4 above for an explanation of the types of costs charged by the Fund.
This Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on April 1, 2007 and held for the six-months ended September 30, 2007.
Actual Expenses
The table below titled "Based on Actual Total Return" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information provided in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account, divide your ending account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,500 ending account valued divided by $1,000 = 8.5), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During the Period."

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table on the next page titled "Based on Hypothetical Total Return" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use the information provided in this table to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare the 5.00% hypothetical example relating to the Fund with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
