List OF the Lucky Prize VIM
nerS.

The first annual meeting of the
Idaho County Poultry Association
draws to a close this evening and
marks the beginning of regular
feature of the newly organized asso-
citation. This first show has proven
far more popular than was anticipa-
ted as the many entries of choice birds
easily demonstrates. The committee
in charge is to be congratulated upon
the great success of the affair and in
bringing to this county, through the
organization of the association and the
giving of the annual exhibit, school
for the local breeders of fancy poultry.
There were many entries and keen
interest taken in the exhibit.
While the committee has had but
little time in which to arrange for the
exhibit, considering the small amount
Of publicity given the show, the aver
age daily attendance was excellent
Another year those in charge should
advertise the dates of the meeting
several months in advance for this
idea of announcing the date a tort
night or such a matter before the
show will not do, as it does not give
the people enough time to arrange to
! enter birds and compete. However,
this being the first show and there
being nothing definite arranged until
} late date and as an emergency exist
ed, no one is to blame.
Harry Kreis, one of the best judges
in the Inland Empire, himself large
/ breeder of fancy fowls, was secured tc
e act as Judge and it is unnecessary to
! say that his decisions were uniformly
e Just and gave general satisfaction
, The officers of the association uset
t excellent Judgment in securing thu
S services of Mr.. Kreis. Superinten
0 dent Smith, assisted by Robert Hamil
r and other officers of the association
# received the birds, and arranged th'
0 coops in mighty attractive display.
