there are twenty Barred Rock hens en-

For the first season It may be au-
visable to limit the entries to the coun-
ty in which the show is held. but after
that 1 should suggest making 1t open
to the world. There will rarely be any
of the big breeders bother you by COM
ing in and taking all the prizes away
from you. If they do 1t will be a
mighty good kind of education for all
who are breeding his varieties in find
ing out Just what it takes to consti-
tute the best in the line. Advertise
your show locally all you possibly can
in order to get the people in general
out to see It. Have a farmers day, a
children's day. and so on. Any thing
to get up the interest Let the adj
mission be as low as possible to get
funds enough to come out even on the
whole proposition of expense. There
is nothing that I have ever seen that
will so Increase the interest in good
stock as one OF these local shows. If
the good work is kept UP people will
soon be ashamed to keep anything but
something good. Do not spend much
money on printed matter. Just enough
to let the people know what you are 60

more than about three good live
men to do the actual preliminary
work of show. Where there are
too many endeavoring to get their
say about everything that comes
up for consideration it usually
causes more or less irritation and
not the best of feeling between
members. SO that it is really bet
ter for the association to appoint
about three live wires in the bust
ness and tell them to go forward
with the work.
Get all the merchants Of the place
interested if possible.
Endeavor to show them how the show
will benefit them in many ways, per
haps indirectly in some cases, but II
will help all to a greater or less de-
gree. The merchants should be, and
are. generally, willing to offer some
good prizes in the way of merchan-
disc of various kinds, such as they nave
in their line of business. These things
while they might not be suited for Of
ferlng in the city show will be APP
preciated in the country town show
and worked for in q hearty manner.
The entry fee should be made small
so that any one will feel that he can
afford to enter his fowls and have them
| judged.
For the first show 1t is a pretty good
plan to offer cash in the shape of q
per cent of the entry money taken on
the variety-say, 40 per cent for first

lects to do and for that reason both
officials ought to work together in har-
mony to eliminate all trouble along this
line.
1t is still a long time before next win
ter's shows will begin, but a timely sug-
gestion can be made and, If pasted in a
conspicuous place, may do some good
when the proper time comes. Let all
show secretaries bear in mind that they
have a responsibility placed upon their
shoulders and that it is not always the
judge who is to blame when complaints
are made regarding the manner in
which the awards are made and the
way they are placed on the coops.
There are always a certain number
of chicken fanciers who do nothing but
KNOCK" the industry, the American
Poultry association and everything that
is being done for the improvement of
the business. If these same men would
cut out this everlasting practice OF
knocking and put their shoulders to the
wheel and help boost, things would be
very much different. What's the use
of criticising every one and everything
connected with the business? 1t never
paid and 1t never will; so throw away
your hammer and begin to work for the
best interests of the poultry business

You can not hope to get very great proper
ton of the people of the country to go into the
large cities to attend the big shows, so the best
thing to do is to take the show to the people.
Organize an association in your home town
and hold a nice little show 1t is not best, in
my estimation, to try to work for the largest
show possible, but just try to get as many IN
the locality to show some of their fowls. In
this way they will feel that it is their show,
and they must do their part toward its main
tenance; it is surprising how the people will get
to talking about our show if the right kind
of spirit is started in it. 1t is, rule, not
hard matter to get good many of the people
of the community interested enough in the work
to pay their dollar dues in order to have the show
work 90 forward Of course it is not so easy to
