80 PLOUGHING WITH DOUBLE AND SINGLE TEAMS. 



quired, are glad to see a plough from N. H. which they think 

 is in some respects, superior to any manufactured in this state. 

 If, upon further acquaintance, this plough sustains the favora- 

 ble impression it has made to-day, we think that it will soon 

 find its way into use among us. 



The second premium, of six dollars, to John P. Foster, of 

 Andover, work done by Ruggles, Nourse, &.Co., Eagle plough. 

 No. 73 1-2, twenty-three furrows in forty-five minutes. 



The third premium, of five dollars, to Daniel Carleton, of 

 Andover, work done by Prouty & Co.'s plough. No. 33. 



The fourth premium of four dollars, to Herman Phelps, of 

 Andover, work done by Martin's plough, No. 3, in forty min- 

 utes, twenty-two furrows. 



The fifth premium, of three dollars, to J. Longfellow, of By- 

 field, work done by Prouty plough, No. 38, forty-six minutes, 

 twenty-four furrows ; this land was neatly ploughed, except 

 the last furrow, which was not so well turned as some others, 

 but as the ploughman was but a boy, and did the rest of the 

 work so well, the Committee could not withhold the premium.
