DISTRICT POULTRY
SHOW NOW ON.

700 Entries Makes Buffers Show big
ger Than Other State Shows Held
This Year.
The MissouriState Poultry Show for
the Southwestern district of Missou-
ri, opened in this city Monday with
700 entries, far exceeding the expec-
tations of those in charge, and crowd
ing to the limit the spacious Henry
garage on North Main street where
the show is being held, and necessi-
tating the placing of nearly all female
entries two in a coop instead of one
as was the original intention.
Every section of the district is we'll
represented with excellent entries,
and many birds from other states are
in competitor with the Missouri fowls.
The birds all seem to be in tip-top
condition and apparently every entry
was made with the earnest intention
of winning prize for the exhibitor.
Besides the handsome young chickens
entered by poultry fanciers from all
over the district there are several
which have previously figured as
prize winners, among them the single
comb White Orpington valued at
$1,000, the property of Geo. D. Leg
gett of Carthage, Mo. Many of the
birds in the show are held at figures
reaching into the hundreds Of dollars.
