The committee found it difficult to decide
ia OulC Eases dS " WHOM the uFSL DrcmIpm
should be awarded, so near alike were the
specimens on exhibition. In some cases we
could not award premiums because the
rules OF the Society had not been complied
with as to quantity presented for examina-
ton, but have in other cases given the prem
iums to those to whom in our judgment they
belong.
