however, came unanimously to the following con- 

 clusion, viz : — 



That Oliver Peabody, of B oxford, be awarded for the 



best pair of 2 year old steers, the sum of $6 00 



To Jedediah H. Barker, for his 2 yr. old steers, 4 00 



" John F. Carlton, for his yearling " 4 00 



" Josiah Titcomb, for his yearling steers, ? 9 00 



second premium, $ 



" David Caldwell, for his bull calf, 1st prem., 3 00 

 " Wm. H. Moody, for his " 2d " 2 00 

 " Job Abbot, for his twin steers, 3 00 



" Wm. H. Moody, for his best heifer calf, 3 00 

 " Ebenezer Upton, for second best " 2 00 



Only one pair of three year old steers were present- 

 ed for premium, and them by Jedediah H. Barker. 

 They were well formed steers, and probably well 

 trained, and of fair size, but apparently not well 

 mated. 



An extra calf, for size, was presented by Edmund 

 Barker, of Andover, but the committee were of opin- 

 ion, that considering the expense of raising him, and 

 his overgrown appearance, the rearing of such calves 

 might as well not be encouraged by the Society's 

 premiums at present. Per order of the Committee.
