miIiarity With High Class
Chickens and CANNES
Judgments Made Today.

The opening Of the Greater Rich
mond Poultry and Pet Stock show was
attended by fair sized crowd last
evening at the Pythian Temple, South
Eighth street. and from until ~
O'Clock inspection was passed on the
exhibitions Of fine blooded prize win
ming dogs. cats, pigeons. geese. tur-
keys and chickens of all classes. Moth
ing but favorable comment was heard
on all sides concerning the displays.
The attendance toda:- and tomorrow
should be large rs the exhibitions war
rant the patronage OF the public.
The show is much larger than anti
cipated and in fact It was hard for the
management to find places for the ex-
hibitions brought in today. 1t far sur
passes the fondest hopes of the pro-
moters both in numbers displayed and
the excellence of the dogs and poultry
shown. Some of the displays are
prize winners of national reputation.
coiiies Were Popular.
Everything has been arranged N
attractively as possible, and this 10
especially true of the stalls for the dog
display. The CANNES were the attrac-
ton Of the day. The collies with their
long silky coats were the most popu-
lar dogs. Another center OF attrac-
Inn ,kA he a.
America today. and owned by Louis E.
Emmons Of this city.
The unfamiliarity of the Richmond
public to the breeds of chickens and
dogs is seen on every hand. The show
will no doubt be the cause OF increas-
ing interest in pets and poultry and
future exhibitions will be attended
with much more interest ti:an this one.
This is due to the fact that this show
will serve to educate people to appre-
ciate the better class of chickens and
dogs.
Fowl Judging Last Night.
The judging OF the fowls began last
night with the Weighing. 1t will con-
tinue throughout today and possibly
part of tomorrow. Judge Lane of
Spiceland will have charge Of the
awarding OF ribbons and prizes on all
poultry. Mr.. Lane has expressed SUR
prise at the excellence Of this the
first show.
The CANNES will be judged by Nr.
Bowser of Dayton, O.. raiser Of some
oof the best pit bull terriers in the
world today. He makes these dogs his
speciality. but 10 well versed ON all
other breeds. In fact he II considered
| the best all-round dog man In the mid
