THE BIDDIEs.

THE BIDDIEs.
They Cackled Merrily at Yarmouth Yes
terday in Spite of the Weather.
The second day of the Yarmouth poul-
try exhibition was not favored with aus
picious weather, but the display went on
just the same and there was a goodly at
tendance despite rain and hard travel
ing.
The cocks continued to crow from the
big Cochins to the tipies5 Bantams and
the hens and pullets continued to occa-
sionally lay an egg and proclaim it. It
was pretty and animated sight that this
vast convention of birds of the highest
type in their numerous classes made at
Masonic hall yesterday. Many eggs were
laid but the best business seemed to
be in progress by the incubator in which
seventy old eggs were in process of de-
velopment for the poultry world. Some
% or so more chicks were Matched out
and they seemed to be as lively and
cheerful as though they got into the
world in ''the good old fashioned way"
Judge Atherton continued his labors
at examination withSecretary Cook to re-
cord the awards. The following results
have been reached:

The exhibition will be continued today
and it is to be hoped that more favorable
weether will be dispensed. 1t is not on
| ly one of the largest, but the best in a
breeding point of view that has been held
in Maine for many years and the official
scoring is behind the assertion.
