Carolina Fair, New Berne, N. G.
Il, 200 Birds in Competition.
For the benefit of those among our
readers who are interested in such
matters, we publish the following re-
port of the poultry show held in con-
neCton with the late East Carolina
Fish, Game and Oyster Fair, at New
Berne, as published in the Journal
1t will be noted that the exhibitors for
most part were North Carolina breeders
which we'll illustrates what is being
done along this line. Nor does the
following list include anything like all
who are devoting their attention to
breeding thoroughbred poultry, by a
good deal. That the next show will
as far surpass this one. in point of
variety and number of exhibits, as
this was ahead of all previous ones, we
have no doubt. The Journal says:
The best poultry show in the South
say parties from Georgia, Connecticut,
| Maryland, Virginia, New York, New
Jersey, North Carolina and South
! Carolina.
The boys are in it. And if the boys
! from our sister States don't believe it,
let them meet us next February, 1895.
