CATS ATTRACT THRONES

The Palace show ended iast n'eht
with the record Of being the best and
largest how ever held In New fork
city. Spratts, who had the contract for
the coopinG. say that they put up more
coops for this show than they had ever
nut up before In New York for n
poultry chow. The attendance was u
record breaker for the Palace ana the
quality Of the whole show was above
par. At the banquet given by the nss"-
citation on Wednesday night at the I'm
perial the various judges gave thelr
opinions on their classes. and W. b.
Anterior, ,s,e White wyandotte Judge
and secretary Of the great Boston show.
said II was the hottest class OF this
variety he had ever seen. similar
remarks were made by the Judges OF the
/ r.. l.. Reds. Bun and White Orpingtcns
and White Lcshorns: In fact. all the
popular varieties.
Not only was the quality OF the high
est. but quantity. tina makes composition
worthy, was also there. There were
some remarkable wins made that are
especially worthy of mention. namely.
the White Wyandotte win OF T.. A. Have

Glasgow. has produced most OF the
winners In this class, but never before
had the competition been 80 keen, ana 10

White Leghorns, for the past four years
or SO Dune Alpin has been almost In
yinciblc In this class. and last year
their manager. Mr.. Kerr. went over 70
Wilburtha Farms and scored for them
the same triumph he had for his pre-
vious connection with some of the most
typical Leghorns ever shown.
In Barred Rocks. Dark Cornish also
made n surprising show with some good
A,ani.n brad birds IN tho money. u.
H.. Latham took u lions share, ana
Brightholme Farms made a most sue
cessful showing Of a number OF varie-
ties. Pastime Farms also came Tor
ward with a formidable array. especially
OF Bantams.
The pigeon classes we're filled with a
Goodly show of splendid specimens ana
IL would seem az II utility is making as
much commot!on among the pigeon
breeders as among the poultry men. as
the birds that have the reputation OF
producing the largest and most SQUADS
made the largest classes. viz, Carneaux.
Homers, Runts and Mondalnes. Tho
highHiers seemed 30 be them most popular
In the show.
Another feature OF this Palace snow
was the display of pet stock and song
birds. There were nearly 400 rabbits
shown and 200 CAVES tgu'nea' p!gs). ana
IN. way In which tho Belgian hares
showed up seemed to show that another
boom was ON In this most scrvfcaoie
breed.
The cage birds made a nice display
which is worthy Of note because OF the
number Of American bred birds on
parade, the war Ia wing made the breed
ers on this side produce their own. and
they have made great strides In the art
of breeding.
The cats had a show Of their own
and the supply men were on hand IN
Soodiy numbers with hne displays. Tho
most novel was the one put UP by the
William Bartels Company. which was
a study In black and white and was at
t~ractive AS well as being a practical dis.

an imposing display Of Prairie State In
