his grounds. They are well worthy of a visit from all who 
may desire to know how these valuable departments of 
the farm may be both economically and systematically 
arranged, so as to furnish every desired convenience for 
stock —“ everything in its place, and a place for everj'- 
thing ”—is the motto here, and most completely car¬ 
ried out. Mr. Finlay has two very extraordinary heifers, 
14 months old, nearly the size of ordinary cows, across of 
the Short Horn and Dutch breeds. One of these heifers 
has quite a bag, and is giving milk; she has been kept 
upon the farm since she was dropped, land has had no 
access to a male. This is a very remarkable ease, the 
like of which has seldom, we believe, been noticed. 
The board visited the show grounds, and were highly 
gratified with the selection. The interest manifested in 
Saratoga, in relation to the approaching Fair, gives as¬ 
surance, that the most ample preparation will be made, 
and the arrangements of the grounds superior td any 
heretofore prepared for the Society; covering for all the 
stock will be prepared on the grounds, so that no ex¬ 
hibitor need take his animals from the grounds during 
the Fair. The intelligence from every part of the State 
is such as to warrant the expectation, that every de¬ 
partment will be fully represented. Northern New- 
York will make such an exhibition as never has been 
made from that section of the State—and the assurances 
from the adjoining States, are such as to leave no doubt 
that the best of their choice stock and articles will be 
on hand, and in abundance. 
The arrangements for the accommodation of visitors 
will be most ample, and such as to leave no cause of 
complaint. The village has largely increased in its 
hotel and other accommodations, since the Fair in 1847, 
and the citizens unite with the public establishments 
in furnishing accommodations to all who may be present.

Premium Agricultural Works, Albany, N. Y. 
T HE subscribers, proprietors of the above Agricultural 
Work>, are the sole manufacturers of Dederick's Patent 
Parallel Lever and Horizontal Portable Hay Press. This 
press was illustrated in the 16th No. of the Country Gent., 
and the June number of the Cultivator. Since that time, some 
very essential and valuable improvements have been made. 
A new and improved capstan has been invented, by which 
the horse (without being removed from the sweep) operates 
the press, both in packing the bale-, and drawing back the 
follower, thereby dispensing with the windlass for drawing 
back the follower by hand. The horizontal press, illustrated 
in the 14th No. of the Counlry Gent., and the May number 
of the Cultivator, and represented as “ II. L. Emery’s porta¬ 
ble hay press,” is the horizontal press as first invented by Mr. 
Dederick, and exhibited at the New-York State Fair, held at 
Utica in Sept, last, and was published by said Emery with¬ 
out authority or consent. The Horizontal Press, as since im¬ 
proved, and at present manufactured by us, is universally 
admired and approved. Its advantages, compared with the 
upright or vertical portable press, are too numerous to be 
specified in a limited notice. Descriptive circulars will be 
promptly sent upon application. We warrantthe.se presses 
in all cases, 1o give satisfaction or to be returned. Orders 
solicited and promptly filled
