SPOkANE'S ANNUAL CHICKEN
SHOW BEST IN HISTORY OF
THE ASSOCIATION.
SEVERAL new BREEDS were SHOWN
Making Decision Owing to Strong
Competition-Total of 1900
Birds Entered.

1912, the annual Poultry Show of the
Inland Empire Poultry and Pet Stock
Association, the largest and best in
its history, was held in Spokane at the
East Side Market building on East
Sprague avenue. Every available foot
of the $4,000 square feet of floor space
the building afforded was utilized and
the strong list of entries made it nee
essary to double deck the coops. In
all there were over 1900 birds entered
which included all of the regular
classes as we'll as some new varieties
and imported stock. Among the breeds
that had never before appeared at the
shows of this association were Sicilian
Buttercups, Silver Campines, Salmon
Faverolles, Buckeye Reds, Black Javas,
Lakenvelders and Silver Gray Dork-
ings, the latter pen which won prizes
at the last show at the Crystal Palace,
London, England. The strongest class
was the Rhode Island Reds, there be-
ing over 300 entries of especially fine
birds in both the Rose Comb and Sin
gle Comb varieties.
