 These poll axes were collected before the Constitution became effective.

big winners at the Warren show last

fancy poultry any thought, was induced
to send up some OF his stock and came off
a good winner. He got first prize on his
pen of brown leghorns, first and second
on pullets, and third on cockerel, and for
the first try justly feels pride in bis sue
cess, his birds scoring away up in tho
nineties.
Master Kenneth Haslet took two first
prizes on buff bantims, and his father,
James Haslet, got away with two third
prizes for white Plymouth Rock rooster
and pullet.

lot of prizes. On white Plymouth
Rocks they got first on their pen, tied for
first on hen, and won second on male
bird. On Partridge Wyandottes they took
first, second, third and fourth on male
and female birds : also first on pen of the
same breed.
Taking into account that there were
about 800 birds entered for the contest
our boys have right to fe elated over
their nice winnings.
Harry Harp of Marienville bagged a
number of very nice prizes at this show.
