HEIFERS. 33 



A fine Devon heifer belonging to James Day, of Haverhill, was 

 not in milk, and therefore not entitled to premium. But as Mr. 

 Day has spent much for a man of small means, in order to im- 

 prove his own, and also his neighbors' stock, your committee 

 unanimously recommend that the amount of the 3d premium, $5, 

 be given to Mr. Day. 



For two years old heifers they award. 

 To Benj. E. Emery, of Haverhill, for his very superior na- 

 tive heifer, the 1st premium, of $5.00 

 To George H. French, of Andover, for his Jersey heifer, 



the 2d premium, of 4.00 



To James Day, of Haverhill, for his native line-back heifer, 



the od premium, of 3.00 



For yearlings they award. 

 To Warren Ordway, of Bradford, for his Devon, the 1st 



premium, of $4.00 



To Charles Emerson 2d, of Haverhill, for his native dark 



red, the 2d premium, of 3.00 



To William J. Buckminster, of Bradford, for his Devon, 



the 3d premium, of 2.00 



Among so many fine animals, it was a matter of regret to your 

 committee that no more premiums could be awarded. They re- 

 commend that mileage be allowed for all that were brought the 

 requisite distance, namely. 



To Benjamin Hogg, of West Newbury. 



To George H. French, of Andover, 2 heifers and 3 calves. 



To Augustus D. Rogers, of Salem. 



To Joseph Kittredge, of North Andover. 



To Amos Emerson, of Methuen. 



To Charles Nelson, of Georgetown. ^ 



The yearling heifer entered by John Perkins, of South Danvers, 

 "was not upon the ground. Your committee learned that she was 

 left upon the way by some mistake. 



Three Jersey calves were exhibited by George H. French, of 

 Andover; one native do. by N. S. Titcomb, of Haverhill ; and two 

 do. by Charles Emerson, 2d, of Haverhill. 



While this Society leaves altogether to the butchers to award 

 premiums and gratuities for fine calves, your committee are grati- 

 fied to find that our farmers will both raise them, and also take the 

 trouble to exhibit them at our Shows.
