POULTRY.
Cecil county poultry was there i'll
| goodly numbers and in good quality too,
and in many cases out scored the profess
sonal birds and chickens, roosters and
hens. Compared TO last year, '94 ran
away ahead of '93. The fair was big
thing and the poultry exhibit i'll every
way played it's part. Mr.. Samuel j..
Arbuckle, who has been .he superintend
ent of this division for the past six years
was we'll pleased with this years show
of game, and from his experience in
poultry shows ia Philadelphia and New
| York, is able to make comparison and
III which Elkton this year proves equally
as good, and eclipses the show at Tren-
| ton, n J, last. And Trenton has big
reputation for chickens too. Allan Oliver
of Newark, made a fine exhibit, his birds
scoring more points than they did here
last year. A fine pair of chicks exhibited
By him are Plymouth Rocks, Mr.
Arbuckle making au offer of $15 fol-
them MesSrs. Thomas, OF Dover, ant
Chandler OF Kenuatt Square, well know
fanciers here, were again on hand, ant

Cecil countiars who score well are Harr.
