274  Report  to  the  Annual  General  Meeting , 
miles  in  all.  With  one  exception,  the  motors  fairly  fulfilled 
the  work  imposed  upon  them.  Throughout  the  Trials,  Brake 
tests  were  made,  during  which  the  power  developed  and  fuel 
and  water  consumption  were  carefully  noted.  On  the  completion 
of  the  Trials,  when  the  figures  obtained  from  each  test  were 
carefully  analysed,  the  Judges  had  no  difficulty  in  placing  first 
the  engine  entered  by  Messrs.  J.  and  H.  McLaren,  Midland 
Engine  Works,  Leeds,  to  whom  the  Society’s  Gold  Medal  has 
been  awarded.  The  official  report  on  these  trials  is  now  in 
preparation,  and  will  be  issued  shortly;  price  Is.  to  Members, 
and  2s.  6d.  to  non-members. 
12.  The  Show  at  Norwich  in  1911  will  be  held  under  the 
Presidency  of  His  Most  Gracious  Majesty  The  King,  from 
Monday,  June  26th,  to  Friday,  June  30th.  There  is  every 
indication  that  the  Norwich  Show  will  be  as  extensive  as  any  of 
those  of  recent  years  which  have  been  so  successful.  It  is  a 
matter  of  great  satisfaction  that,  at  the  suggestion  of  the 
Society,  the  Board  of  Agriculture  and  the  Colonial  Office  have 
arranged  for  the  Colonial  Ministers  of  Agriculture  to  be  invited 
to  attend  the  Show,  on  which  occasion  they  will  be  entertained 
for  the  Show  week  by  the  Lord  Lieutenant  of  Norfolk  and  the 
other  large  landed  proprietors  in  the  County.  The  Royal  Norfolk 
Agricultural  Association  have  agreed  to  forego  their  annual 
Show  next  year  and  have  made  a handsome  contribution  to  the 
Fund  raised  by  the  Norwich  Local  Committee.  The  Suffolk 
Agricultural  Association  have  also,  as  in  1886,  subscribed  liberally 
to  the  Local  Fund. 
13.  The  Schedule  of  Prizes  for  Live  Stock,  Poultry,  Produce,
