SALISBURY SHOW, JULY, 1857.

The competition by R. GARRETT & SONS, at this Meeting, was confined to the class of HORSE HOES and DRILLS, and after a most patient and searching trial, the FIRST PRIZE in HORSE HOES was again awarded to R. GARRETT & SONS' well-known Implement, which has now been before the public upwards of fourteen years, taking the First Prize at every Meeting at which it has competed, distancing all competitors, and has earned for itself a reputation such as no other implement ever has done. his result is the more important when it is borne in mind that no further competition will take place in Horse Hoes until the year 1860, No less than 64 Horse Hoes were exhibited at Salisbury, all of which, by the awards, are pronounced more or less inferior to—

R. GARRETT & SONS’ PRIZE MACHINE.

The following statement shows the result of the competition :—

THE PATENT HORSE HOE ...... First Prize.


(Making Thirty-Eight First Prizes and Ten Medals awarded for this excellent Implement.)

THE SMALL OCCUPATION CORN DRILL First Prize.
