the AGRICULTURAL SHOW.
FIRST DAY.

The show made by the exhibits is
much better than was expected
the small number of the exhibits. How
ever, q numbcrsof other exhibits were
received up to the morning of the Show.
The best portion of the show and the
one in which most interest has been
taken, Judging from the number of cx-
hibits, is the section devoted TO horses
Most of those exhibited are fine animals
and worthy of good place in any show
but very few of them seem to have been
we'll prepared for exhibition. There is
an absence of that decoration and fincry
and great care in cleaning and trimming
which is seen elsewhere on an occasion
of this kind. Amongst the stations
King William is undoubtedly the finest
looking horse while Triumph and Billy
Vernon were also much admired. A
yearling black native stallion Prince
Henry owned by Chief Justice Judd
also attracted great attention. In addi.
ton to those on the catalogue native
bred mares were entered and l pair of
Imported mules. The prizes in this sec
on will be made known tomorrow, as
will also those for neat cattle.
In the sheep section His EX. w. M.
Gibson made the only entries, but the
exhibits have not arrived, as the schr.
from Lanai Is probably delayed by
Gains.
In the dog section the first prize was
taken by Mr.. Max KOhm's setter slut,
and the End prize by ME e. B. Wilson'S
Gordon Retriever dog Major. The
following received diplomas, Max Kohm,
setter slut; r. Lishman, pair Gordon
setter dogs; C. Il. Wilson, Gordon
spaniel dog, King; w. j. Brodie, 5
Kangaroo Hound: Guy Wodehouse,
pointer; J. II. S. Kynnersley, Fox
terrier; A. S. Cleghorn. pair grey
hounds; G. Vogt, pair Blue Skye terriers
and 3 pups.
The exhibits of Poultry were very
few in number, and with the exception
of the pigeons not very interesting.
Most of them were varieties of game
birds.
In the Dairy products the first prize
for butter was awarded to Puuhue
ranch, but further Judgment will be
made this morning as some OF the eX-
hibits We're not classified.
The only exhibit in the Domestic
Manufactures section was that of IL.
H. Princess Likelike, who exhibited II
number of koa and cocoanut calaEashcs.
The section devoted to agricultural!
products was extremely interesting. The
Ramie plants and tibres and specimens
of it in the different stages of manufac-
ture, as exhibited by Mr.. Coleman, offer
: prospect of unlimited wealth to
these islands. $l200 per anmum can be
realized from an acre of Ramic. The
Alden Taro Company, of Wailuku,
showed specimens of taro and flour
from taro, prepared by the Alden pro-
cess.

number of exhibits, but the season be-
