Which Opened To The Public
On Tuesday Noon
Birds Of All Kinds Are Now
On Exhibition
The Show The Best Ever
Given In The County

The Knox County pet stock and
poultry show opened in the Sapp
building on South Main street on
Tuesday morning. The large room on
the second floor has been cleared of
everything except the poultry pens
and dog kennels. The room is proper
ly heated by number of stoves
which throw out enough warmth to
make the place comfortable, but not
warm enough to discommode the poul-
try. the steps from the street have
been covered with planking and a
hand rail has been erected in order
that aged people can easily ascend to
the show room and 1t also makes it
easier for all persons. This is only
an example of the efforts made by the
association in charge to accommodate
the patrons in every detail.
On entering the building, one is i'm
mediately conscious of perfect babel
of noise coming from over a thousand
chickens. To the enthusiastic person,
this Is rare treat for 1t is seldom
that the opportunity to hear such a
noise presents itself to the chicken
breeder. Over one thousand chickens
were on exhibition early Tuesday
morning and entries were arriving as
fast as the men in charge could ac-
commodate them and put them In
their allotted places.
There are chickens to Re seen from
the very smallest kinds to huge birds
that seem almost unreal when compar-
ed with the average chicken
One interesting entry has been
made by Mr.. Omar Stephens of this
city,, 1t Is a pen of Long Tailed Jap
anese chickens. They are of very
pretty color and have tail feathers
ranging from two to three feet In
length. Another rare bird entered by
Mr.. Stephens is the Klondike chick
en-. This fowl Is snow white and It's
feathers are jowny just like the down
oh q NCIy iittic SuiShCh. hO lOuthS u .
of this chicken are often used for maxi.
ing muffs and hoods for protection
from the cold.
Mr.. Harry o. Lippincott of Newark
will Judge the dogs and place the tags
on them as soon as they have all been
entered. Judge w. r. Graves from
Southboro, Mass, arrived in the city
Monday evening and began the work
of Judging the poultry on Tuesday
morning. His time will be occupied
at this work until Friday owing to the
large number of chickens.
Now that the much talked OF show
Is here, everyone should turn out
with their support and attend some
time during the remainder of the
week. The doors VIII be open all day
and in the evening as late as specta-
tors wish to remain. Those In charge
state that when all of the entries are
in, over eleven hundred chickens will
be on exhibition.
The finest birds in the state are In
Mt. Vernon and 1t Is the opportunity
of life time as It Is by far the best
show ever given in Knox county and
is just as good as any given in the
state.
