362 [Assembly 



For the purpose of determining what are the chief products of 

 the county with as much precision as I could, I have gathered 

 some statistics of a// the important ones in two towns — one of 

 which is as good a grain growing one as any, and the other one, 

 which is considered rather better adapted to grazing than grain 

 growing, though it has the Tioughnioga running about ten miles 

 through it. I could not well go on with the estimate of the whole 

 county for want of time.
