Poultry at the Centennial.

A delegation of dealers in poultry and
eggs, representing the trade in Boston,
New York, Baltimore, Philadelphia and
elsewhere, have called upon Mr.. Welsh
to ask that five acres of ground be set
apart next year at the exhibition for the
display of chickens, dncks, turkeys.
geese, pigeons and poultry products, the
delegation at the same time requesting
that 5000 pens should be furnished by
the commissioners for the accommods-
tion' OF the poultry show. It is probable
that the request of the poultrymen will
be granted and that the show will take
place between the fifteenth of May and
the first of July.
If the statistics given in conversation
by one of tho committee representing
the poultry trade be authentic, and there
Is no reason for doubling, this branch of
American trade is of far greater extent
and value than is commonly known.
The dealings in poultry and eggs last
year in the United States are reported to
have reached the enormous amount of
$500, ,0OO, 900, a sum more than half as
large as the total annual imports of this
the most extravagant country in the
world; and exceeding the value of our
cotton crop. It g also stated that the
eggs consumed in, not shipped from,
New York city are equal to $4,000, 900
per annum. At three cents apiece for
the eggs, estimating the population of
New York at 1000, 700, this would be
257 eggs for each person every year, a
quantity that seems appalling at first
glance. The statistics of this interest
ing source Of food supply, which will
be forthcoming at our Centennial exhi-
bition, will doubtless be matter of sur
prise even to our own countrymen.
