WORCESTER SOCIETY. 



183 



It is with pleasure, that the committee allude to the efforts 

 of the trustees of the Massachusetts Society, to improve the 

 stock of the State ; and they trust that their efforts will be con- 

 tinued, until farmers, generally, have an opportunity to coope- 

 rate with them, in this important undertaking. 



If all those who offer stock for exhibition only, would follow 

 the example of Mr. Wheeler, in furnishing a written statement, 

 the purposes of the society would be more fully accomplished. 

 It has been demonstrated, that competitors for premiums can 

 conform to the rules, and it is hoped that future committees 

 will be furnished seasonably with certificates, as required by the 

 society.
