rue Viosll% uay OIL the poultry snow at Hof-
ticultural hall drew out much larger number
of visitors than any preceding day during the
exhibition. Probably the fine weather of yes
terday in contrast 10 the raw and clustering winds
of Tuesday and Wednesday, had something to
do with the increased attendance, Many ladies
were present, and expressions of admiration and
interest were heard on every side

yellow cards, denoting, respectively, first, second,
third and fourth premiums, were attached TO the

neighbors in the qualities which 90 to make up
perfect fowl. 1t was curious to observe the
effect which followed the issuing of these little
cards
During the day the birds who sported the
red card on the sils of their residences attract
ed many visitors, while those who could not
boast like emblem of superiority were passed
by with indifference. Buying and selling was
oriskly carried on, especially during the after
noon and evening, many choice birds changing
hands at good prices.
The show closed at ten O'Clock last evening
The managers deserve congratulations for the
care and attention to detail which has marked
every part OF their exhibition, and although its
pecuniary success has not been equal to its de-
serTs, the lack has not been caused by any fault
or oversight on their part, but rather by cir
cumstances beyond their control.
The premiums offered by the society amounted
to over $500, which were divided among fifty
one classes. There were also over one hundred
dollars in special prizes given by friends of the
society for the best birds in particular classes.
