THE VALLEY FAIR
As Seen by the Veteran Poultry Judge.
I. X. FeIch.


The Country Gentleman contains in its
last issue a two-column article Cd the Val.
ley Fair, written by the veteran poultry
Judge X. Felch. He says in part:
"The Valley Fair at Brattleboro. VT. is
an annual sensation. That the last is al
ways the best has been said for II wears
with truth. lis coaching parade is the
finest, and probably brings 10000 visitors
and attendants to this fair. 1t was grand
review OF beauty and elegance of design
The Ayrshire cattle equaled or exceled
those Of any fair yet held. The herd of
Jerseys from the renowned Hood farm was
better than we have before seen here under
one tent. The fat stock, steers. sheep and
swine were all the best of their kind, or
squashes there were II weighing 1894
pounds, with the vegetable display in
keeping. But you ask, what has ali this
to do with poultry? My friend, it has
everything to do with it. All this array of
merit brings its lovers, and all view the
poultry exhibit: and from among the &c, 900
who saw that exhibit of poultry, many fan
ciers were made.
"rhe poultry management at the Valley
Fair is work. G in the right direction. 1t
has the finest poultry exhibit of any fair
in New England-the best, so far as |
have seen, for any fall fair association in
America. l say best, not largest in num-
bers, perhaps. l have in II years seen its
exhibit of las grow to over 1900 specimens,
and seen the Gull and nondescrpt exhibits
relagated to the rear to a degree beyond
any other association in the country. Its
exhibit, further, was more purely breed
ers exhibition than any other l know:
fewer birds are purchases than in any
other, and the merit is not eXceled, Nhile
the sales at this fair are very considerable,
1.-The classes, especially among the most
practical breeds, were very large; the
American class alone numbered 600, with
the Barred Plymouth Rocks listing 1913, all
OF the best quality-so much so that had
the best II specimens been taken out and
the class rejudged, it would have been
hard task to do it right. There we're 80 to
40 birds that not even an expert could see
any appreciate difference in. This class
was rebuke to comparison judging, which
gives all the emouments to the winner and
prevents the breeder from showing he has
10 or 20 birds to score within one-half to
one point of the winner. The disposition
seemed to be for most of the breeders to
mass their best birds in their breeding
pens; but in this class it was the excep-
ton, one reason perhaps being that it was
so exceedingly hard to match the phenome-
nal specimens that won in the open classes
the new classification preventing the
specimens in the breeding pens from COM
peting for prizes in the open classes"

The beautiful old town of Hatfield,
Mass, has become well known in connec-
ton with the names of two important pub
lie benefactors, oliver Smith, founder of
the Smith Charities at Northampton, and
his niece, Sophia Smith, founder of Hatfield
academy and Smith college. An article
on "The Home of Sophia and Oliver
Smith" is contributed by Mr.. Giles B..
Sebbins to the October number of the
New England Magazine. Mr.. Stebbins
was himself resident of Hatfield for many
years, and for the most part his article
consists of his recollections of this noted
family of Smiths, which fact makes his
paper doubly valuable. Many fine views
of Hatfield street illustrate his article,
which has a local interest for Phoenix
readers. y
Captain Charles d. Sigsbee will contrib
ute to the Century's new war series his
personal narrative of the Maine. This will
be printed in the November and December
numbers of the magazine. The COM
mander of the battle-ship gives in these
two articles, for the first time and in full
and authoritative manner, the inside his
tory of the reception of the Maine at Ha-
vana, her stay in the harbor, and her de-
struction. The articles will be pIofusely
illustrated with portraits, pictures, and
drawings, and facsimlles of the abusive
Spanish circular sent to Captain Sigsb, e
and the latter's first despatch announcing
the calamity. In an article closely follow
ing these Lieut.. Hobson will give his own
account of the sinking of the Merrlmack
in the Santiago channel.

players at Cornell, reviewed the work of

game. He was twice hurt and should
have been taken out of the game, but
there was no one to Is Ike his place. He
ran hard and well but often failed to gain

The Year Has Rren Hind.

Written for lions Herald by Rev A. j. Hough
of White River Junction, formerly of Brattleboro1
Tn year las been kind to us, Yankee folk,
Yet of boastinR b- there none;
Though victory came to the flag at a stroke,
Weknow IL was God who won.
There was sin enough in this Christian land
To have lost thousand fights,
But nations wrong NAV not rise and stand
In the way Of uthers' rights.
The year has been kind to us, Yankee folk;
On near and far away seas
As lifted the cloud OF the battle smoke,
Our flag alone hailed the breeze.
Twas the man behind the gun-how that word
From press aud from pulpit ran
But this was the message the angels heard,
That God was behind the man.
The year has been kind to us, Yankee folk
For North and South stood apart;
But the clear, far ring of bugle spoke,
And now we are one In heart.
God pity the homes where grief appears
For the dead-but are they not bestg
For Mary of Nazar, tn shed her tears
At the same sad sweet request.
The year has been kind TO us Yankee folk,
With her gifts of fruit and flowers
She brought us word through the battle smoke
That never before was ours
All hail to the year when the flag unfurled
In these Weston hreezes free,
Bore, shining clear in the eye the world,
The grand word, Humanity
