DAIRY STOCK. 333 



First premium to William S. Lincoln, of Worcester, for his 

 bull, Bruce, from McGregor and Swinley stock, $50. 



Second premium to John Brooks, Jr., of Princeton, for his 

 bull, bred by Daniel Webster, $40. 



Third premium to William S. Lincoln, for his bull, Rob Roy, 

 descended from the imported Ayrshire bull, Swinley, $25. 



There were three cows entered for exhibition only, by Wil- 

 liam S. Lincoln, of Worcester. One ten years old, had run 

 with a pair of twin calves the past summer ; one three years 

 old, had been in milk nearly a year ; another five years old, now 

 dry, a very promising cow, and all fine animals, with a pedigree 

 which makes the purity of their blood undoubted. Their calves 

 were also fine well bred animals. 



Our attention was also called to some grade Ayrshires belong- 

 ing to the Hon. John Brooks, of Princeton, from a cross of the 

 State importation. They were a good lot of cows, reported to 

 be good milkers, and had strong indications of Ayrshire blood. 

 He had at the show, some fine heifer calves from these cows, by 

 his Ayrshire bull.

 ination. The bulls presented were, however, all of them 

 superior animals, and all worthy of premiums. After a full and 

 thorough examination of each of the animals, and also the 

 accompanying statements, signed and sworn to by the reputed 

 owners, your committee make the following award : —
