next week.
There will not only be chick
ems, but rabbits and an exhibit of wild
game and game birds from the state
commission that will cover 1000
square feet Of floor space. This alone
will be well worth seeing.
The fowls on exhibition will not
only be local birds, but birds from all
over the state. There has not been
so much interest in the poultry show
in this county for many years and
lovers of fine poultry will miss a rare
treat If they fail to attend. 1t will be
just as interesting for those who do
not know one breed from another, as
there win be big chickens, little chick
ems and chickens of any color you
may name.
