Report on the Trials of Implements at Cardiff. 453 
The following are the awards in this class : — 
No. 5027. Marshall, Sons, and Co. . . 1st Prize, 10/. 
„ 4945. Clayton and Shuttleworth. 2nd Prize, 5Z. 
„ 4994. W. Tasker and Sons . . . Hifjhly Commended. 
It will be noticed that in neither of the prize machines is the 
trough made to fold up. Elevators used in conjunction with a 
threshing-machine are mostly employed all the year round, and 
are seldom out of use long enough to make it worth while to fold 
them up and put them away in an ordinary cart-shed. 
Class V. — Straw or Hay Elevator to be Worked by \ 
Horse Power. 
The ten entries in this class consisted of 7 machine-elevators, 
and 3 small implements that acted as pitchforks, raised by ropes 
drawn by horses. If such implements are to compete for prizes 
on future occasions, it will be well to enter them in a class by 
themselves. When pitted against the more effective and expen- 
sive machines they had no chance of succeeding, although on 
small holdings and under special circumstances they may be 
found of great use where the other machines cannot be obtained. 
All the machine-elevators brought for trial in this class were 
fitted with troughs made to fold up. Machines driven by horse- 
power are seldom used except for ricking hay and corn at harvest 
time ; during the rest of the year they must be kept under cover, 
and unless the trough is made to fold up it will occupy a most 
inconvenient amount of space in the cart-shed.
