JOHN M. IVES, Chairman.

ON MILCH COWS AND HEIFERS. 



The Committee on Milch Cows and Heifers (present — T. E. Pay- 

 son, Thomas G. Dodge, Daniel N. Breed and William Osborn) award 

 the Society's premiums as follows : 



To Warren Averlll, of Ipswich, 1st premium, $10 

 To Samuel Soule, of Lynn, 2d " 7 



To James Marsh, of Danvers, 3d " 5 



To Samuel Dane, of Hamilton, 4th " Colman's 



European Agriculture. 

 The statements of these gentlemen accompany this report ; and to 

 them the Society are referred, for the merits of the cows. 

 For heifers in milk, they award 



To Manning Dodge, of Ipswich, 1st premium, $7 



To Ebenezer G. Berry, of Danvers, 2d " 5 



They also recommend a gratuity of two dollars to Ebenezer But- 



terfield, of Saugus, for a very promising year old heifer, and three 



dollars to Col. B. Poore, of West Newbury, for two large improved 



short horn heifers, two years old. 



Col. Poore exhibited cows of the same blood, but did not enter 

 them for premium. It is but an act of justice to state, that no man 

 in the County has taken more pains to add to the interest of our ex- 

 hibitions for several years past, than Col. Poore. For this he de- 

 serves at least our thanks. 



George Hood, Esq., of Lynn, exliiblted several young cows, the 

 stock of which has been favorably known to the farmers of the Coun- 

 ty for several years.
