THE POULTRY SHOW

winch closed last SATURDAY evening.
held poultry show regularly every
fall that was one of the best in
the state, but for several years
past no show has been held, and on
account of this lapse it was thought
that it would be hard to get the
fanciers of this section to take in
terest enough in the exhibit this
year to make 1t success, but in
this the promoters were most pleas
'antly disappointed for every one Of
the standard utility breeds as well
as the fancy fowls were represented
in large numbers, fanciers from all
over this part Of the state having
fine showings on exhibition. The
attendance was not as large as it
should have been for such an excel
lent exhibition, but the promoters
feel that owing to the limited time
Tor preparation and the season of
the year it was as good as they
could reasonably expect and they
express themselves as we'll pleased
with the outcome and already are
laying plans for a bigger and better
show than ever next fall. Much of
the credit for the success of the en-
terprise should be given .Superintend-
ent Koch and Secretary JennisOn as
we'll as the members of the execu-
tive committee, for they worked hard
to give the people who attended the
full worth of their money and show
in keeping with what they had been
led to expect and in these efforts
they succeeded admirably. The fan.
eiers from other points in the state
= who had exhibits expressed them
selves as we'll pleased with the
treatment received here and prom
ised to be back another year.
