The committee would not be satisfied 10
close their report without expressing their
high appreciation of samples Of butter pre-
scented by Mrs. Wadsworth, in fancy work.
Besides being perfect butter, it is thing of
beauty, which is a JOY forever.
For this as well as the personal presence
of the exhibitor, and the valuable hints she
has given in regard to butter making, she
would be entitled to gold medal, if we had
one to bestow. Not having one, we beg to
present our thanks.
