SANITARY COOPS
 FOR FINE FOWLS
POULTRY SHOW WILL BE EQUIP PED WITH VERY LATEST THING IN CHICKEN CONFTN- FRS.

One of the innovations to be intro duced at the second annual show of the Bridgeport Poultry. Pigeon and Pet Stock Association is the new style of electrically welded coops which will be used throughout the exhibition. A carload of these GOODS. numbering be- tween 1000 and 1.200. has arrived in this city. The coops are entirely of metal, with the exception of the floor which Is of wood. They are of the folding type which makes the work of transferring them in and out of the ex- hfbition building very simple.
 The use of the modern style of coops Is of interest because they are sani- tary, of attractive design and permit the spectators to view the exhibits from all sides. The entries for the exhibition are coming in very rapidly and from present indications the show, which will be held at the armory Jan. 4. 5 and 6. will be a. great success.
 Secretary George Seltsam of the as sociation will receive entries until Wednesday. The time was extended for two days owing to the stormy weather of Saturday and Sunday, which delayed prospective exhibitors
 The judges at the exhibition will be Charles H. welles of Stratford. Will liam Holmes of Shelton, Paul P. Ives of Guilford. Charles A Kaschube of Meriden, and H. H.
