Corn DREssijfG Machines. 
With these machines we had great competition, but so many of them had 
wrong-sized pulleys on them, the makers not knowing the size of pulley on 
the testing-machine, tliat many of the trials were unsatisfactory to the Judges. 
We gave the prize to Messrs. Hornsby, and commended Mr. iSTicholson's and 
Mr. Garrett's. 
Trial with 31 Turns of Testing Machines.

A patent grain and seed separator, shown by Dray and Co., invented by 
G. Salmon, of Illinois, we consider likely to throw a new light on dressing- 
machines ; its performance in tlie hands of its inventors was wonderful, but 
it must be seen to be appreciated. We awarded it a Medal. 
Hunt's clover-seed drawer had a Silver Medal awarded to it. The Judges 
think clover-seed ought to be provided by the Society, for want of which 
there was no trial, but the above award was sanctioned by one of the stewards 
of the yard. 
We cannot close this Report without recommending the Society to furnish 
themselves with another testing-machine, ranging between those iised for 
trial of thrashing-machines and hand-power machines.
