The exhibition of colts was unusually good, and although 

 the Committee were not able to award any more premiums, in 

 compliance with the vote of the trustees, they were glad to 

 see that an increasing interest is every year felt in the rearing 

 of these valuable and useful animals. 



The Committee would notice a fine stud colt, three years old, 

 presented and owned by Josiaii Crosby, of Andover, as a su- 

 perior animal, which will be kept in the county, but was not 

 entitled to a premium on account of not being reared within 

 the county. On behalf of the Committee.
