ORCHARDS. 

 Whole number of entries. 1. 

 Best Apple Orchard, P. G. Comstock, Great Barrington, .$10 



Your Committee would recommend giving orchards one more 

 year and view them the same time as reclaimed lands. If the sea- 

 sons are dry they get but very little growth in two years. Only one 

 Apple Orchard set in the Fall of 1882 or Spring of 1883 was entered. 

 Committee. — Reuben R. Brewer, Harvey Roys,.
