QUALITY IN LAMBS.
JUDGING IN LONDON. Interesting comparisons between the judging of New Zealand lambs at the last Auckland Show and later on the London market are contained in a report received by the Auckland Agricultural and Pastoral Association from W. and R. Fletcher, Limited. Each exhibit comprised three lambs, and of the six pens forwarded to London, that placed first in Auckland was given fifth place, the judge remarking that the three lambs could be called only "good." The exhibit given second place locally was also placed second in London, while the third awards also coincided. The following awards were made in London: —H. Rhodes 1, S. Rhodes 2, Tainui Estate 3, N. Reid 4 and 5, J. R. Self 6. In connection with Mr. H. Rhodes' exhibit, which was not placed locally, the judges said there were two well-matched lambs with one perfect Down lamb. The pen was outstanding among those sent.
