BUTTER. 



The committee on butter report fiftj^'-two entries. Many of these were of 

 excellent quality. It is an easy matter to duternnue between good and poor 

 butter, but to grade that of superior merit is more diffirult. Your committee 

 after careful examination of the same, award as follows: 



For the best twenty pounds of Butter, Mrs. A. R. Hurlburt, Sheffield, 

 2d do,, BIrs. D. C. Millard, Egremont,

 one entries made of this important product of the farm, and decide to award,

The Committee had before them six entries of the so-called Dutch Cheese, 

 which showed to be skillfully made, and for which your chairman was depend- 

 ent on his able and intelligent associates to determine quality, but for which 

 variety we had no premium to award as a reward for the exhibitor's toil. 

 Respectfully submitted by your committee.
