all the time and came out with two
blues, a win to be proud of in this COM
petition.
In Black Orpingtons Foxhurst Farm
won out again with a splendid array.
For The last five years under five differ
ont Judges this farm has been prac-
tically indicated. Hugh Rose from
Canada put up good fight in these
classes, and IN Bu'fs he showed n won
derful pen. The male in this pen Is con-
sidered the best Orpington ever seen.
Sunswick Farms also made good win
In Buns. AZ did owen Farms. In Whites
the awards were well split up, no one
making a phenomenal win.
In Campines Jacohus and Martlng
had Il pretty much all their own way,
the former winning display on Goldens
and tho latter on Slvers with a good
string. The White Rocks wero good and
awards well distributed. Rhode Island
Reds were among the very large classes
and quality abounded.
Tho next boom I'm poultry seems to be
on the Sussex, an old English variety
used In Sussex by the fattcners for the
London market, which make a splendid
table bird A good variety which al
ways Is admired IL the Partridge Rocks,
and IN this variety and the Columbian
splendid win was made by the Bona
partc Poultry Ranch, owned by John
Hays Hammond, Jr., and ably managed
by Mr.. Mackay. They practically made
n clean sweep.
The displays OF poultry supplies were
not as many as In previous years owing
70 the lateness OF tho show. but one
thing was very noticeable. and that Is tha
quantity Of brooder stoves now being
put out. Only n year or 70 ago this way
Of brooding chickens was unheard Of
and yet every one to-day says II Is the
thing. They are the outstanding feature
II the supply line.
The Certified Farms had their model
exhibit and their English poulterer, Mr.
Hun, created n great deal OF interest In
his hourly talks TO tho housekeeper.
There Is something really practical
about these talks, as II shows how to
select your table chickens and how to
prepare them for the table in such
way that carving is a pleasure and not a
chapter OF accidents. The dates for the
next show were announced as from De-
c~nher 40 1915. TO January 4. 1915 u

Crowds Flock Into Garden-Speed in Giving Out
Ribbons Amazes Old Fancers

Yesterday and Friday proved that the
Madison square Garden Poultry Show.
which continues until Wednesday In
Guiding to-day. Is the most successful
held In the twenty-slN year history OF
the show. Friday saw the biggest days
gate receipts in the shows history and
yesterdays broke that record.
Atmospheric conditions In the Chesa-
peake Bay region interfered Friday 10
prevent the breaking OF any records in
the flight Of pigeons from the roof OF
Madison square Garden 20 Washington.
Another flight Of pigeons was released
yesterday. kilograms were received at
the Garden last night announcing that
the first bird had arrived in Washington
three hours after It's start and that the
message OF peace h. carried had been
delivered to President Wilson The
pigeons are the property OF members OF
the Washington Racing Pigeon Club,
which is a member OF tho American Rae
ing Pigeon Union.
To-day "A flock OF twenty-five Brooklyn
pigeons will he released in Washington
TO carry back to New York the answer
OF President Wilson TO the message The
brooklyn Coucourse Association, whose
headqua rters are at 1912 Myrtle avenue,

A flock Of eighteen birds owned by L.

Haven, also was released yesterday.
Some OF these bore messages to Prof

The facility with which the awards

a source OF wonder to the old timers who
had TO wait for several days before the
ribbons were put up. Secretary Cleve-
land issued positive orders that the
prizes were to he awarded on the first
day and posted as soon as mahe-an In
novation that made a decided lift with the
exhibitors and visitors alike. The quail
ity this year was far more evident than
ever, as the breeders had kept only the
cream OF their hocks for this event and
every mediocre bird Is in the breeding
pen at this time.
The SURPRISES OF the show were the
Light Brahma classes. an old variety
that many thought had passed out as
commercial breed. Here they are the
largest classes IN the show and there
has been a battle OF champions These
birds weigh anywhere from eight pounds
for females 10 fourteen pounds for adult
cocks. 30 they make grand showing IN
their coops
Exhibitors from England are missing
this year, but Canada Is well repre-
sented and member OF Parliament,
Joseph Russell made good win on
his wyandottes So did Charles Nixon
Arthur Duston also was out In good ar
ray. f. u. Thompson made the same
old killing In Barred Rocks. II does
not matter who tho Judge Is, his birds
always are at the top.
Another OF the kings OF the poultry
game whose birds always arrive Is Dan
Young. and again wonderful string
was put down in beautiful condition and
won out. although Rancocas was lighting
