T*The Committee erred (unintentionally,
We doubt not) in stating that Mr.. Laird's
Animal was a Cow, as she was Heifer,

3. Plo,ring Match.
The committee on Plows and Plow-
ing have awarded the first premium
to Abraham Broun Jr., of East Buff
faloe, (Witherow's SelfSharpener) 90
! The second to " J. Laird Of East

The whole of the work was done in a
highly creditable manner. The committee
would much like to be able to notice the
Plows more particularly, but are at present
unable so to do from press of time.
