SECOND DAY.
Yesterday quite Il number more sheep
were brought in. but the roads were
worse than the day before, so that it
was impossible to bring loads from some
towns. G. w. Mason of New Haven
started with wagon full, got stuck and
had to return home. Among the new
noclls represented were those of David
jackson of Addison. who had his rams
Putiball, Stub and Jumbo; G.. Il. Wither-
ell, Cornwall, pen of yearlngs
j. b. llamblin q Son, Cornwall,
ewes; II. r. Holden, Middlcbury
j. l.. Buttolph e Son, Middlebury, who
showed both ewes and rams, and II. W.
l. ii, ii
that the ram Jay Eye See, shorn We'd
nesday. yielded year ago the heaviest
fleece ever cleansed here. Visitors were
more numerous yesterday than the day
before but the same causes that operated
to make the exhibit small as compared
with previous years kept people at home
j. \. Speare of Braintree, ). b. Jane.
and his brother, well-known breeders OF
Hoosick, y. Y, X. G. Mead of Suther
land Falls. f. X. IIendee and W. =. Hal

present from out of the county.
All things considered the shearng has
been successful. and those who hav,
made it so are entitled to credit for thei
enterprise and eXertions. These'are tn,
