PLOWING— OX TEAMS. 



The Committee upon plowing horse teams have attended to the very 

 pleasant duty assigned them in the rain, (although very acceptable to us 

 as farmers, yet as committees not so agreeable,) and beg leave to make the 

 following report : 



There were eight entries, and we must say were all well done, and very 

 creditable to the several competitors, and in our awards we do not claim 

 that our decisions are infallible, or will meet the expectations of the com- 

 pettitors. We award as follows : 



For best Plowing Team, J. C. Lowrey of Egremont, 

 2d do., H. W. Burget of Egremont, 

 3d do., Patrick Burnes of Stockbridge, 

 4th do., J. A. Kline, of Egremont,

 Tth do., Elisha Collins of Great Barrington, 



PEDIGREE. 



The committee on Pedigrees of Thorough-bred Stock, respectfully re- 

 port that they have examined the pedigree of twenty-one animals, offered 

 for premium by eight competitors." Sixteen of these pedigrees were ac- 

 cepted as satisfactory, and five were rejected on the ground that there was 

 not sufficient evidence ottered to prove that the animals were thoroughbred.
