ampton, the fina being in 1873 and the second in
1878, the prevalence of cattle disease preventing the
show 'mine held there in 1877, as was intended.
The same site (the Southampton Common) has again
been chosen., and on this occlusion utilised to greater
advantage, the racecourse, which traversed the ground
now being available for the purpose of the Exhibition
In consequence of the abolition of the races, and no
prettier approach could possibly be had to • show
yard than the Southampton Avenue. A somewhat
falter area has, however, been enclosed to afford
adequate accommodation for the increased number of
entries. The machinery and implement departments
(in which there are some 130 exhibitors) occupy a
central position, whilst the sheep and horses are
placed at the upper portion of the yard, and the
cattle and swine at the lower end. Of sheep there
are 130 entries, of horses 118, of cattle 385, .1 pigs 63,
of butter 11, and of corn 9, making an aggregate of
216 entries, or an increase of 240 over the record
1878. As is usually the case at this society's exhibi•
tions, the classes for Channel Islands' cattle ;are
extremely well filled, there being no fewer than 250
entries of the noted Jersey and Guernsey breeds.
'The Hampshire South Down and long•woolled sheep
classes are well-filled, and there is an average entry
111 agricultural horses, hunters, hacks, and ponies.
Of Berkshire pigs there is an excellent entry, but the
other pig dance show • falling off. In the poultry
department, too, the number of entries is not quite
equal to those at Guildford lint year, and it would
appear that at other large exhibitions held this year
the entries of poultry have not been so numerous as
on Previous occasions. The services of the highly
reputed bend of the Royal Marine Light Infantry
have been engaged for all four days of the exhibition.
Each day there will be expositions of bee management
and appliances by the Hampshire Beekeepers' AN.,
and jumping and driving onnpetitions, and
parades of horses and cattle will take place daily.
