FARMING IMPLEMENTS, &c.
The entries in this department were few. The
manufacture of Plows was best represented r
J H. Wood of the Badger State Plow Works, and
! Dennis Kearney of this city had Flows on exhibi
ton. Both ofthese gentlemen manufacture excel
lent cast steel plows that for beauty, durability
and perfection in every particular, are not excel
! led anywhere. If we were to pass upon them to
decide which should take the premium, we should
| be at loss to determine which was the most de-
serving, Probably years use of both would
, help US to decide. Mr.. Kearney's Flows are made
| for service. They are all made with double
SHIN" which adds much to their strength and du-
rability, and the mould boards are hardened by
his new and improved process, sothat there would
seem to be little room for improvement.
Mr. Woods Flows are also made for service, of
the best material and by experienced workmen-
He has made large outlay to build shops and put
up machinery to enable him to manufacture a
large number of the best kind of Piows at the
lowest price The Committee awarded the LIST
prem. to Mr. Woods Pillow. To Mr. Kearney's
Plow's they awarded I'd prem. and two diplo-
mas

Mr.. A Gulick had seed sower on the ground,
that was awarded adiploma.
Our old friend DIR. r. Bourne exhibited pat
ent atmospheric churn which took a premium.
Mr. Brown of this city, had several churns of
his manufacture on the ground, which seem to
have been overlooked by the committee. We have
heard Mr.. Browns churns very highly spoken of
by those who have used them, and we should say
from an examination that they must be an excel
lent article.
Thomas English of this city had samples ofdoub-
lie and singlesharness ON exhibition, which were
awarded premiums.
2. Yaw of Salem had cider mill on the ground
to which was awarded diploma
Thomas Pacey exhibited Coon Skin Robe that
was worthy ofnote. 1t was composed Of IL coon
skins, if we remember rightly, with the tails left

We cannot close this notice without paying
well merited tribute to the officers of the Society,
who have spared neither labor nor pains to ad-
vance the interests of the Society. Mr.. Leland
and Mr. Fowler have both labored increasingly to
build up the Society; to awaken Il new interest,"
among their friends and neighbors and the people
of the county generally. And we believe they
have done this with great economy, and with an
eys single to the best management of the slender
funds OF the Society. They deserve the thanks of
the Society, and we hope to see them reelected
for another year, that is, if their patriotism and
public spirit will iGduce them to serve the Society
tor another term
