milk, from which were made 12 pounds 2 ounces of butter. 

 Total butter made in twenty days, 28 pounds 6 ounces." 



The three-year old heifer of Lewis Leonard, of Bridgewater, 

 gave, as appears from his statement to the committee, in ten 

 days in June, 10-|- pounds of butter ; and in ten days in Sep- 

 tember, 8| pounds. 



The two-year old heifer of Josiah L. Bassett, of Bridge- 

 water, gave, in ten days in June, 9 pounds of butter; and in 

 the same number of days in September, 7| pounds. 



The heifer of Sidney Packard, of East Bridgewater, eighteen 

 months old, attracted a good deal of attention. She, and also 

 that presented by Nahum Snell, of West Bridgewater, two 

 years old, were not inferior, the committee are inclined to 

 think, to any of the same class of animals which have here- 

 tofore received the bounty of the society on any former exhi- 

 bition. 



The committee regret that Mr. Kingman, of North Bridge- 

 water, gave no definite statement with regard to his bull; 

 simply saying of him that " he is of the Ayrshire and Durham 

 breed." This bull was of good form ; but the committee 

 must say that neither he nor any other offered for their inspec- 

 tion and judgment seemed at all distinguished for remarkable 

 properties. 



Other stock were examined by the committee, which they 

 have not time to make particular mention of; they therefore 

 recommend the following award of premiums : —
