COMMITTEES' REPORTS. 



After careful deliberation, your committee have awarded 

 the first premium, of $10.00, to Jabez Fisher of Fitchburg, 

 for his report on farms ; second premium, of $6.00, to Solon 

 Carter of Leominster, for report on grain ; third premium, 

 of $4.00, to Jabez Fisher of Fitchburg, for report on bread, 

 butter, cheese, &c. 



Favorable mention should be made of the reports on 

 apples, peaches, plums and quinces ; gardens ; plowing ; stal- 

 lions; and line arts. Much credit is due to most of the 

 chairmen for their neat, gentlemanlike work, rendered in 

 season. And it is to be regretted that a few return a few 

 pencil marks, scarcely legible, which they would be ashamed 

 to meet the second time. 



For the committee, 



A. M. Sawyer.
