Trial Of Moving Machines.

At trial OF mowers held in Hanover, New
Hampshire, on the agricultural farm, June 20,
1875, the following mowers were tested: Granite
State, Buckeye, Vermont Star, Walter A. Woods,
Peoples and Clipper. large number OF poo
Pile were present to witness the trial, which was
advertised To be so fairly conducted Those
OF the committee who were appointed from the
State Board of Agriculture were detained from
being present account OF their official business
and new ones were substituted on the morning OF
the trial. Immediately after announcing their
names II was talked by quite a number present
that the selection of the committee was unfair
And as the trial progressed it was publicly talked
by large number, II not a majority present, in
Guiding some Of the most influential citizens Of
Hanover that 1t was put M job for the Buckeye.
All the mowers except this one were run, aud the
dynamometer applied, with the knives dropped
down to their rery iorest cutting, and the Buck
eye was allowed To be run, and the draft tested at
considerably o5ooe is medium height Of cut. The
grass was very heavy and badly lodged, on hub
bly, clay bottom, SO the close cutting machines
had much more to cut than with a knife running
high, consequently registering higher draft
Stringent rules were enforced preventing the
farmers, to any great extent, from examining tho
ground after II was moved, or the working OF the
machine. Also debarring them from hearing the
agents explain the merits OF each TO the committee
TO the great dissatisfaction OF the farmers, among
whom were some OF the best IN the Connecticut val
ley The decision was In direct opposition 10 the
opinion OF majority Of those present, and one OF
the committee publicly remarked ia the evening,
after the trial. that he decided for the Buckeye,

TIs WEpDRG,---A few Of the many friends OF
Mr., and Mrs Henry White OF Topsham, made
them surprise visit on the afternoon OF the sixth
inst, 1t being the tenth anniversary Of their we'd
ding day. In consequence Of the heavy rain in
the morning, quite number were prevented from
attending that otherwise would have been present.
The company was called to order by DIR. o. L.
Watson. Prayer offered by Rev. C. NJ Winch,
after which, in behalf OF the company, DR.. Wat
son made some remarks, and presented them with
the tin, consisting Of various articles Of utility,
and some more for ornament than for use Then,
in behalf Of Mr. and Mrs. White, Rev. Mr.
Winch responded, in his usual easy and pleasant
way. DIR. Watson remarked that in these DAYS
when divorces were 30 prevalent, he thought the
marriage ceremony should again be performed
and bind them SO strong that they would not
think Of troubling courts for at least ten years
TO come. Rev Mr.. Winch enqured of them II
they were willing to renew the pledge they took
ten years ago, and both asserting, they were pro
nounced husband and wife. The company then
repaired to most bountiful repast which had
been provided, to which all did ample justice
The best OF all the fact that II was a complete
surprise, Mr.. and Mrs. White not knowing word
OF 1t until teams drove into their yard All, agree
ing that they had had very pleasant time de-
parted for their homes, leaving their very best
wishes for the happy pair
