POULTRY SHOW
GREAT SUCCESS
AND ASSOCIATION IS HOPEFUL
Annual Exhibition of Fcathcred Stock
Is Well Patronizcd by the
Public.

Hopeful and bright is now the out
look for the Yakima Poultry associa-
ton as a result of the show of feather
ed stock which opened at the Armory
building. December Is and closed last
night. Though the exhibition of feath-
cred stock was not as large as the
fanciers have got together on previous
occasions, it was as numerous in speci-
mems as the only available building
would accommodate and the individ-
uals were of a very high standard.
The great point. however, Is that the
gate receipts were better than the
club has ever before been able to
obtain and the interest manifested by
the public generally is a guarantee of
an excellent future support. The
Commercial club has promised assist
ance. If this will take the form of
providing a suitable building for flu
ture shows the fanciers of Yakima
county promise not only to make such
display as this section has never had
of locally owned birds but to get in
from the outside specim ems which are
as good as neighboring states are cap
able of.
This year. because of limited ac
commodations many of the local fan
ciers kept their birds at home and Kit
titas and Benton counties were not
Invited to come in. Neither were there
any birds from the west side of the
mountains though the breeders there
have hitherto come to North Yakima
in large numbers. Debts incurred
at previous shows now having been
paid and the show of this year hav
ing carried itself the fanciers are pre-
pared to bend all their energies at
their next exhibit to making it a huge
success They will introduce diff
ferent system of coping and arrange
ment and will decorate individually.
