56 I Assembly 



REPORT OF THE JUDGES ON AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS. 



The judges appointed by the managers of the Twenty-First Annual 

 Fair, to examine the Agricultural Machines and Implements exhibit- 

 ed, would respectfully report as follows : 



Eddy & Co., Union Village, Washington county, N. Y., the best 

 iron beam plow, well made, and adapted to general purposes. 



Hall & Speer, Pittsburgh, Pa., the second best iron beam plow. 



Eddy & Co., Union village, Washington county, N. Y., the best 

 side hill plow. 



George Page, Baltimore, Md., a plow of the most novel construc- 

 tion — the mould board revolving — an arrangement w^hich, in our 

 opinion, must make it the easiest working plow on exhibition. It 

 did not arrive in time to be entered at the plowing match. 



C. J. Burrall, Geneva, N. Y. , a plow also of novel construction — 

 having a revolving land side. It is well made, and in our opinion 

 ■worthy of notice. 



Ruggles, Nourse & Mason, Worcester, Mass., (J. B. Allen & Co. 

 agents, New-York,) a centre draught plow, with a beautiful arrange- 

 ment of clevis, and of good workmanship. 



C. J. Burrall, Geneva, N. Y., the best cultivator. 



The plows above named, are from a large assortment on exhibition; 

 and though the committee have thought advisable to present them, 

 they are aware of such a degree of incompetence to decide correctly 

 of their respective merits, that you will, we hope, take its judgment 

 with caution. 



Hay and Straw Cutters, 



Of which there is also a large variety on exhibition, and your com- 

 mittee have thought best to divide them according to the principle of 

 their construction, into three classes : 



1. Those having revolving cylinder knives, and cutting by com- 

 pression ; 



2. Those having revolving shear knives ; 



3. Those having reciprocating shear knives. 



Buggies, Nourse & Mason, Worcester, Mass., (A. B. Allen & Co. 

 agents, New-York,) the best revolving cylinder knife straw and stalk 

 cutter; an improvement on those heretofore exhibited.
