mavket-cart on springs, very suitable indeed to the purpose for which the 
Society oifers the prize ; price 181. 10s. Corhett (3841) was awarded the 
■second prize ; price 14Z. 10s. 
Mr. Pickering exhibited (4038) a veiy highly finished cart, but we con- 
Gidered it of too expensive and polished a character, and beyond the purpose 
for which the Society offered the prize.

Liquid Manure Carts. — Nine of this class were placed together, viz., Baker 
.(351), Woods and Cocksedge (146), James (392), Reeves (528), Coleman (569), 
■Orosskill (1415), Beverley Waggon Co. (1736), Hunt and Pickering (1908), and 
Watts (4286). We decided that the several carts should be tested, by mixing 
a small quantity of screened soil in the water, and so have them put into 
action ; but we found the soil, being insoluble, choked up the holes, and we 
were obliged to abandon the system, and have all tested alike with water, 
■each cart having put into it 180 gallons. James (392) we awarded the first 
prize, for its evenness of distribution had decidedly the advantage. This cart 
will contain 270 gallons ; it is made of wood, l^-inch red deal, jointed together 
by his {>atent joint, " James's patent," which is considered to keep it perfectly 
watertight ; it is 4 feet 8 inches wide, by 6 feet long ; depth 2 feet 2 inches, and 
supplied by a pump of galvanised iron, -J- of an inch thick, and 4 J inches bore ; 
the quantity of liquid manure applied is governed by lever and valve ; the 
trough will distribute water or liquid manure to a width of 15 feet, and a flange 
is in the centre of the trough, giving ready access in case of any stoppage which 
may arise; price 111. 17s. The second prize was awarded to Baker (351), a 
■cart made of iron, cylindrical shape, having the axle passing under the 
-centre, pump attached, and also a stirrer revolving inside ; it contains 180 
gallons, and distributes a width of 6 feet; price 24Z. 10s.

"Carriage with Low Body, adapted for removing Stock and Implements. — Four 
only were presented for our inspection. Woods and Cocksedge (144), Beverley Co. 
(1739 and 1740), and Corbett (3842). So infinitely superior was one from the 
rest, that we decided to give to the second prize only a small portion of the 
money, as will be found in the prize list : Corbett (3842) is a very perfect and 
substantial cart, well suited for the purpose, very strongly built, frame-work of 
■oak, as also the bottom of 1-inch oak boards lathed across, covered with water-
