HEIFERS. 



The Committee on Heifers "n'ould submit the following re- 

 port : — 



There were entered for premium but one three year old 

 heifer, four two year old heifers, seventeen yearlings, and two 

 lots of calves — four in each lot. There were also several 

 heifers upon the ground not entered, and some single calves, 

 which, by the rules of the Society, were not allowed to com- 

 pete for premiums. One of them, a two year old heifer, in 

 milk, belonging to J. P. Jones of Georgetown, was very likely, 

 and we recommend a premium of $5. 



The Committee consider Mr. E. S. Parker's mottled Grade, 

 three-year old heifer well worthy of the 1st premium, of $7. 



We award to J. Longfellow of Byfield, for his two-year old 

 heifer, the 1st premium, of $5. 



To Charles Harriman of Groveland, the 2d premium, of $4, 

 for his Devon Heifer. 



To E. S. Parker of Groveland, the 3d premium, of " Flint's 

 Book on the Dairy," for his Grade Heifer. 



"We found much difficulty in deciding the superior merits of 

 the seventeen yearling heifers, as all were good, and we should 

 have been glad to have had more premiums to dispose of, but 

 finally awarded the 1st premium, of $4, to Theron Johnson of 

 North Andover, for his Grade Heifer, and the 2d premium, of 

 $3, to Joseph Newell of West Newbmy, for his Grade year- 

 ling, and the 3d premium, of " Flint's Book on the Dairy," to 

 Eben S. Poor of South Danvers, for his Ayrshire Heifer. 



We would also award to J. Longfellow of Byfield, the 1st 

 premium, of $5, for his superior lot of calves, and to Chas. 

 Harriman of Groveland, the 2d premium, of $3, for his lot of 

 calves.
