 The thanks to MT. Ryland was made very emphatsc by a purse o $16.S5 being presented to him as a token of appreciation by the exhibi- tors. MT. Ryland who has clever ly managed the show received the pra SC of the local exhibitors and was also lauded by out t-of-town exh bitors E. N Hopkins, representing the Un- lon Poultry Journal. of Fort Smith, states that the local show is one of the best he has ever seen and that Pine Bluff will receive much good boosting from the out-of-town exhibi- tors who have received such courte- sies at the hands of the Jefferson County Assoc 'ation off cials. The services of Judge Savage and Brown have been so highly efficient on this occasion that an effort will be made to secure them for the Fort Smith show next year.
 At the same meeting the local breeders decided that the next annual show should be held in this city No- vember 27 to December 2, 1911. These dates were made in order that the chickens on exhibit would be given d rest before being sent to Fort Smith to be entered in the state show. The show which has been in session for three days and will continue through Saturday, is the annual state show and also the annual exhibit of the local poultry association Secretary Phillips and Superintendent Ryland were reelected as managers for the show next year.
