S. M. BARTLETT, 

 Chairman of Committee, 



DIVISION D.— BUTTER, CHEESE, SUGAR AND HONEY, 



The undersigned begs to offer his report upon the merits of the vari- 

 ous articles submitted to the inspection of your Committee, with the 

 several premiums awarded, set 'opposite the numbers respectively enti- 

 tled to the same. 



The show of butter and cheese at the Fair of 1854 exceeded that of 

 the present year, both in quantity and quality. This is perhaps owing 

 to the inferior quality of the food necessary to produce these very de- 

 sirable articles. 



In awarding premiums on cheese, your Committee have confined 

 themselves to specimens manufactured withiu this State, recommending 

 foreign samples for discretionary premiums. 



The specimens of sugar offered deserve the highest praise.
