The committee on haying and harvesting implements beg leave to report that there was a fine display of mowers, reapers, and harvesters, but the several exhibitors only placed their machines on exhibition with the understanding that there should be no competition, as any reward that might be made, would necessarily have to be made without any test or trial. The committee also report that they found on exhibition a full assortment of almost every variety of tools and machines adapted to harvesting work, many of which were comparatively new inventions or great improvements on old. That the committee did not have in many of them, a sufficient test to enable them to do justice to themseves in making their awards. They noticed on exhibition a self-binding attachment, that seemed to do its work well and with expedition, and seems to deserve a special notice and premium; also, a hoisting and transferring pulley, etc. Your committee gave as good a trial to the potato-digger as was possible, and while we see improvements that would warrant success in the future, we deem them not sufficiently perfected to warrant us in making any awards of premiums.
