AT POULTRY SHOW
RIBBONS AND PRIZES HAVE ALL
BEEN AWARDED AND CROWDS
ARE FILLING THE BUILDING TO
SEE THE FANCY RlRDs-THE
LIST OF AWARDS.

| Now that the poultry ratings have
been fixed and the blue and other
colored ribbons have been fastened TO
the coops. showing the real class OF
birds which are on exhibition at the
seventeenth annual North Dakota state
poultry show, fanciers and others in
crested in the development of the
poultry industry of the state and the
Red River valley are attending the
show in large numbers. Today the
aisles in the monster room where the
aristocrats of the poultry world are on
dress parade, are crowded with spec
tators.
Today Supt. H. p. Cooper was pro-
fuse in the expression of the poultry
associations appreciation of the out,
side attendance. Among the visitors
who were to be seen making close OBJ
servations of the coops containing win
Ming birds were some from the remote
corners of the state. The comments
of appreciation were many and 1t was
frequently heard stated that there may
be poultry shows with larger numbers
Of entries, but the Fargo show was In
the front ranks in the point OF quality
as the high scoring will demonstrate.
The judging was completed today.
The score card system was used so
that the exhibitors know the points OF
excellence or deficiency OF their birds.
The breakage of a few feathers some
times keeps an otherwise fancy bird
from obtaining the high score 1t would
be entitled to, and for this reason the
exhibitors are careful to avoid crowd
ing. Separate coops are provided for
each bird or pair OF birds.
