The prize of 20^. was awarded to Messrs. Clayton and Shuttleworth, the 
performances of whose machine were, on the whole, superior to any other, 
and its construction inferior to none. The machines in this class were many 
of them excellent, and the competition very close. With one or two excep- 
tions the whole of them separated the chavings from the chaff, and by means 
of elevators delivered the marketable corn into sacks. Most had barley- 
horners, and two dressed the corn a second time — viz., Messrs. Clayton and 
Co.'s, by means of a second blower, and Messrs. (larrett's, by passing it 
through a revolving wire cylinder, into which the makers have introduced a 
screw diviision, which causes the grain to pass over the entire internal surface, 
a great desideratum, whereby the samples were very much improved and a 
step gaijied — that of finisliing the corn ibr market. This last was furnished 
with an intermediate shaft, from which the drum and working parts were 
driven ; and had it not broken the corn and straw in the (rials, it would, from 
its mechanical improvements, have stood well for the prize. The machine of 
Messrs. Iliiiiipliries was specially commended, as its arrangements were simple, 
its draught liglit, and, with the exception of damaging the barley, its perform- 
ances very good; its price, too, moderate. Messrs. Humphries claim the merit 
of dividing the vibrating trough so that the impetus of one part counteracts
