4230 pounds. I have owned them two years, have worked 

 them all the time until June 1st, 1885, when they were put 

 out to pasture ; from Jan. 1st, 1885, they were fed on low 

 meadow salt hay and four quarts of meal apiece for two 

 months, and for the last two weeks I have given them six 

 quarts of meal apiece. 



Respectfully, 



R. T. Jaques. 



STATEMENT OF JAMES FERGUSON. 



The pair of Oxen entered by me for the premium offered 

 for Fat Cattle, have been owned by me since the 15th of 

 May. They are grade Durhams, are five years old ; were 

 fed on two quarts of corn meal every night for two 

 months before they were entered for exhibition. They also 

 had all the good corn fodder they could eat and had not 

 any hay.
