THE ROYAL NORTH LANCASHIRE AGRICULTURAL
SOCIETY.—Tne annual meeting of this association was
held on Tuesday and Wednesday, in Lightburn Park,
Ulverstone. On Tuesday, when the trial of implements took
place, the weather was remarkably auspicious, and induced
the attendance of from 5,000 to 6,000 persons ; upwards of
£do more than was anticipated being taken at the gates.
The trials were made in a large field on a farm in the occu-
pation of Mr. R. Atkinson, of Lane House, the property of
H. W. Askew, Esq., Conishead Priory. The most notice-
able feature was the trial of reaping machines. Two excel-
lent ones were shown by Mr. Drewry, of Holker, near
verstone (Burgess and Keys, London), and Mr. W. Kendal,
Harbarrow, Furness; and the prize was awarded to the
former, the second being highly commended. One of
Hussey's, improved by Dray and Co., shown by Mr. Robert
Birch, Stand House, Netherton, Liverpool, was commended.
On Wednesday, when the show of cattle, horses, sheep, &c.
took place, the weather was again favourable, and the
attendance most numerous. Among the gentlemen on the
ground we noticed his Grace the Duke of Devonshire
(president of the Society) ; H. W. Askew, Esq., Conishead
Priory; Colonel Clifton, Lytham Hall; Major Cross, lied
Scar, Preston; Marqnis of Hartington, M.P. ; R. T. Parker,

Royds, Esq., Falinge, Rochdale; Lieutenant-Colonel
Towneley, Towneley Park, Burnley ; G. Drewry, Esq.

greatest satisfaction as regards both the number and quality
of the animals shown. There was also a more extensive
exhibition of implements than at any previous meeting.

removes all those little pains and irregularities infanta
are so subject to. The following letters speak volumes:—
