REPORT ON BULLS. 



There were eighteen Bulls on exhibition and all entered for 

 premium. The Committee first proceeded to examine the differ- 

 ent breeds entered as pure bloods, no others being allowed by the 

 rules of the Society to compete for premiums. Nearly three- 

 fourths of these animals were raised by the exhibitors Avithin 

 two years, and are thereby entitled to compete for the " fifty per 

 cent, more than the regular premium." Mr. Seagraves of Need- 

 ham, and William C. Allen of Medfield, offered each a fine grade 

 Bull. Patrick O'Neil of West Roxbury a three-fourths Alderney. 

 Thomas Smith of Dedham a half Alderney and half Suffolk, a very 

 superior animal as a grade. George Babcock of Brookline a half 

 Ayrshire and half Native, and a very fine specimen. Mr. Weston 

 of Weymouth a three-fourths Durham, fine. Mr. D. S. Coolidge 

 of Brookline a half Ayrshire and half Native, three years old, 

 raised by himself, and of the highest character in all respects as a 

 grade.
