As  the  duty  of  furnishing  a report  to  the  Society  on  the  Ex- 
hibition and  Trial  of  Implements  at  the  country  show  has  now 
devolved  upon  the  senior  or  retiring  steward  of  that  department, 
the  writer  of  this  report  gladly  avads  himself  of  the  resolution  of 
Council  in  1844,  which  determines — 
“ That,  the  person  whose  business  it  is  to  draw  up  the  report  on  the 
“ show  of  implements  should  do  so  from  the  different  reports  made 
“ to  him  by  the  judges,  and  for  which  they  are  to  be  solely  respon- 
“ sible  ; but  upon  any  trials  during  which  the  reporter  has  been 
“ present  himself,  it  would  be  competent  for  him  to  make  any 
“ remarks  lie  may  think  necessary.”
