tially a milk producing community ; the heifers showing large 

 capacity for milk with excellent disposition, and large size, 

 and the bulls a remarkably quiet and gentle disposition. 



Your Committee would also make special mention of the 

 Short Horn Bull, " Lord Dunmore," exhibited by Judge 

 Bradley ; and of the Ayrshire Bull, " Brown Mars," exhibited 

 by Mr. Massey, as animals of the highest merit in their 

 respective breeds, and would take the liberty to suggest to the 

 farmers of Essex county that it would be much to their 

 advantage to breed from such animals instead of using the 

 common grade bulls which so many of us do. 

 Respectfully submitted, 



RiCHAED Newell, for the Committee.
