134 WORCESTER SOCIETY. 



As a whole, your committee were very much gratified with 

 the "rising generation" intrusted to their examination, and 

 notwithstanding the feminine youthfuhiess of some, they all 

 gave evidence of good training, and displayed those docile 

 virtues which are most becoming in young cows. 

 All of which is respectfully submitted, 



E. B. Stoddarb, Chairman. 



Bulls under One Year Old. 



Report of the committee on bulls under one year old, 

 (familiarly called bull calves.) 



The subject is not an inspiring one, and the committee beg 

 leave to confine themselves entirely to statistics. 



As only seven animals were entered for exhibition, the duties 

 of the committee were light. They have no hesitation in 

 awarding the only premium within their judicature to Ezra 

 Beaman, of West Boylston, for a bull calf, part Devon, raised 

 by himself, nine months old, weighing one thousand pounds. 

 The committee are of the opinion that the other animals reg- 

 ularly entered are not deserving of particular commendation. 



Two very fine bull calves, one three months and 28 days 

 old, weighing 470 pounds, owned by Lambert Lamson, of 

 Boylston ; and one 13 weeks and four days old, weighing 370 

 pounds, owned by Nathan Handy, of Grafton, would be enti- 

 tled to most honorable notice, but for a regulation of this 

 society directing that no mention shall be made of animals not 

 entered in season. 



The committee beg leave to call attention to the last para- 

 graph as a fair specimen of an Irish Bull. 

 All of which is respectfully submitted, 



F. Wayland, Jr., Chairman.
