NO SUITABLE Bull DING.
Maine State Poultry Associ alton
Obliged to Abandon Their Annual
Show

II is with much regret that the Of
iicers of the Maine State Poultry AS
ISOLATION announce to the pouitrymen
that they will be obliged to abandon
their annual show for the present as
there is no suitable building in Maine
available for the accommodation of a
show of that size.
Every possible effort has been made
to obtain the Portland Auditorium but
the officers of the national guard, who
now control the use of that building,
positively refuse to cancel their drills
for one week TO enable the poultrymen
to show there.
The disseminating of the annual
show means a serious injury to the
poultry industry of Maine. and it is
the sincere hope of every poultry
breeder that there will be building
erected somewhere in Maine in the
near future suitable for Il large eX
hibit. A. L. MERRILL.
