The show of implements was a great increase on former years, 4804 being 

 the number of articles exhibited, forming 282 stands. There was perhaps not 

 so much novelty as on some former occasions, yet the tout ensemhJe was on 

 the whole highly creditable. 



The work of inspection was much impeded during the first two days, from 

 many of the exhibitors failing to have their stands imcovered, and having no 

 one to represent them. 



TliC great variety of articles in the Miscellaneous Department rendered it 

 advisable to keep in remembrance the Society's primary object, viz., "to 

 encourage the manufacture of such implements only as are of practical use 

 in agriculture." We were unanimous in deciding that the following articles 

 were most deserving of notice : — 



Woods and Cocksedge (2399). This Horse-Gear is made entirely of iron, 

 a great advantage, as the lower frame is not liable to decay from exposure to 

 weather and damp earth. The horse-wheel being extra large, lessens the 

 draught ; the intermediate motion is also of iron, fitted up with pulleys, and 

 a short spindle is attached with a universal joint, which will allow of three 

 machines being worked at the same time if required, of course according to 

 the power wanted. This intermediate motion is fitted with a clutch to throw 

 out of gear, which can be done instantly without stopping the horses. 



Webb and Son (3381 to 3396). An assortment of Leather Bands, for driving 

 machinery, of excellent quality, the leather being thoroughly strained and 

 worked to a uniform thickness in its manufacture, thereby preventing the 

 band stretching during use, a frequent cause of much hindrance and 

 annoyance.
