Warden, in Bedford(hire. A machine lately in-
vented by Mr. Perryman, for cleaning wheat of
the hulk, without injury to the wheat, was exhi-
hited. It takes off the hulk in the moll complete
manner, and it is calculated that there will only
be one pound wafted inllead of (even, by the com-
mon method.
Mr. Moore, of Afpley, exhibited an uncom-
.
• ' monly flue few pig ; and it was allowed by Lord
Somerville, Mr. Efinan, and other eminent judges,

ten (core, had a litter of pigs about three months
• Race, and is uncommonly fat, although fhe has
only been fed in the common way, upon Slit
grown barley. Mr. Garrard, from London, at-
tended for the purpofc of taking likeneffes of the
molt famous fheep which have-keen exhibited this
year as did Mr. Read of Bedford.
His Grace's breed of Kent fheep were exhibited,

tsillbudrace then rote, and announced, that Mr.
Cowley, of Afpley, was entitled to the premium of
fifty guineas for expending the largell fum of:Mo-
ney (not lefs than fixty guineas) in the purchafe of
breeding ewes or theaves of the New Leicefter or
South Down breed.
They had determined that Mr. Rimeirnan, of

The unfuccefsful candidates for there premiums
were Mr. Bithry, of Snelfon, and Mr. Grefham, of

ing this year.
The premium of a cup, value ten guineas, was
adjudgefito Mr. Butfield, of Potfgrove, for breed-
ing, in Bedfordthire, the belt theave.
The premium of a cup, value five guineas, was
adjudged to Mr. Moore, of Afpley, for the fecond
belt theave. His Grace Elated, that the Judges
had paid very particular attention to the different
implements that had been exhibited, and were of
opinion *at Mr. Lefler was not entitled to any
premium, for his improved cultivator; nor was
Mr. Gooch, for his improved plough ; but that
Mr. Salmon, of Woburn, was entitled to a prensi.
um of twenty guineas for his drilling machine,
which was capable of drilling any kind of feed.—
His Grace then made a very animated addrefs to
the farmers, exhorting them to exertions for the
improvement of the breed of their flock and of
their agriculture in general, and then made known .
the premiums he intended to give for the next
year; he likewife gave notice of one for the year

parative tiial between the drill and broad can

ten acres, being in the fame field, a premium of
thirty guineas.
Ilist:race concluded by giving the healths of
the faced:lnt candidates, and immediately after
Lord Soy rev' cce role, and gave the Duke's
health, which was drank with erallufialm by the
whole ciimpaay.
At (even o, clock they retired to the Park Farm
yard, when twelve Devnalhire and five Hereford

in gsvhich, from the great ohjeds it is calculated
to promote, mutt be Of national importance.
