doing the fair association has show
excellent Judgment, for the fanciers ar
much pleased at the arrangement ant
in, every way the exhibit has beer
splendid and most satisfactory. TIL
direction of affairs at the exhibit ha
been under the efficient care of George
Hausman, one of the largest fancieri
of the northwest, whose judgment anC
genialty has made everybody fee
good Mr.. Hausman raises over 1000
birds a year for the markets and fol
sale to fanciers as far west as the
coast and knows every detail of the
poultry business. He will have the
management Of the next annual state
poultry exhibit in this city, which is a
guarantee Of its success.
The Neisman Illinois exhibit carried
off great lot of honors, all of which
were we'll deserved for he has flock
of birds such as has never before been
seen in this state, the lot including ev-
erything the fancier or market can
could desire. He has some very rare
birds, the plumage Of which is mar
vel Of delicate tracery and gorgeous
ness warranting a minute inspection by
the non-raiser.
The exhibits from the state raisers
are far above the average and demon
strates that North Dakota is becoming
a poultry raising state by leaps and
hounds. With the favorable climate
and ease with which chicks can be
raised in this state 1t is only a matter
of time until North Dakota will be
counted as among the best in quality
and productiveness, those who are now
in the business being determined to get
the best stock and stick to high
quality.
1t Is apparent that an enlargement
Sof the poultry building is a prime nee
Eessity and undoubtedly such additional
space will be provided before the next
Estate fair.
The, scoring Of the birds in this ex-
hibit was done by Ralph Whitney of
Rochester, Mimi, and his work has
been satisfactory to all the exhibitors,
although, Of course, there are some dis
appointments over the color of the rib
tbon received, but this is true Of all
competitions and tn seconds and
thirds take their defeat this time phiIo-
sophically and with a determination to
present better birds next time. The
lessons learned at each exhibition by
1
! than the expense involved and all tends
7 to raise the standard Of the business.
Mr.. Whitney was the poultry Judge
at the Alaska Yukon Pacific exposi-
ton last year and gained new laurels
for his ability in that line.
