500 Report on the Exhibition and Trial of Implements 
Report (/Messrs. F. King and Edwaed Whittle 'o« the Implements tried hy 
them at Canterbury. 
The implements tried by us were chaff-cutters, grinrling-mills with stone 
and steel grinders, linseed and corn-cruslicrs, oil-cake breakers, turnip-cutters, 
and root-pulpers, all worked by power. 
Quality of work was our first consideration, and all the machines were tested 
by the dynamometer. The able assistance of Mr. Easton, jun., made our 
task much easier. The machines were generally well constructetl, and made 
good work.
