The prize for this machine was awarded to Messrs. Garrett and Son. From 

 the above table it will be seen that their machine obtained the greatest 

 number of good marks, and that it was only beaten in point of time by one 

 other ; which, from the hasty manner in which it was fed, thrashed very badly. 

 There is nothing particular to remark respecting these machines, excepting 

 the great difference in the time taken to do the same amount of work.

This prize also was awarded to Messrs. Garrett and Son. On reference to 

 the above table, it will be seen that Messrs. Hensman's machine was equal to 

 the prize one in the goodness of its performance ; but though it had 5-horse 

 power, it was rather longer in doing the same quantity of work ; and when 

 reduced to equal power, the difference in time is considerably in favour of 

 Messrs. Garrett's. There is also a considerable difference in the price. With 

 three or four exceptions, the work done by the above machines was very 

 satisfactory. .
