KAIKOURA SHOW.

• A SUCCESSFUL DAY. (Bt Oca Srr.ciAi. Retorter.) KAIKOURA, March 10. Tho Kaikoura Show is one of the most cosmopolitan in character that are held in Canterbury. There seems to bo no de*partment of life on the farm that is not catered for, and tho competitors may be drawn from the ranks of hoary age down te confident youth and innocent childhood. The FC-hednle of sections includes, in Addition te those usually associated with i.n agricultural and pastoral .s!-.',w. e-la.- -c. for poultry, dogs, cookery, dairy produce, laundry work, vegetables, ie.>t--, fruit, flowers, anel sclh.«»l we.rk. The Kaikoura Show is really on aggregation of small shows all brought _ together to form a comprehensive wii.'le. Tho fourth annual -show held to-day by the Kaikoura Association was m many ways a succi-ss. The enirirrs v. "re mlicit in excess of tho-.-e of prevkni.-. years nr.d numbered well over a •h'*upand. Tiro weather wa.-) beautifully fine-, though tho previous night th* i« had Yon a threatened break in tiie

dry -spell. There wn.s a lar-e attendance, among the**.* pre-ent lx'in'4 t.i* Hon. G. FowkX Minister for Educntion, Mr Geo. Witty, MP.. Mr G. Forbes, M.P., and Mr Cloyton. Government vet. Tin* show grounds ire prettily situated and are- fairly weil appointed. The ground n.-.'d -s _.t public reserve, which is ir>>nt<d by Kaikoura Bay on the east ami .-.r.eit'-red by a row of trees on the west. It is possible tho ground will prove te'_> Bmall in tho course of a few yiors am. that tho Association will have to loe.k for more extensive grounds. In tie meantime, part of the >how, teusi.---ing mostly of the 'arm produce s. etion, is held in the* Drill Hall. While the quality of exhibits mi gut be criticised, the .oeia! s.icte.ss ot On* fghow was undoubted. An interesting adjunct was provided by Mr \V. B. Bray. Inspector of Apiaries, w bo diesire-d to imprests on the Kaikoura .people the possibilities of their county as a honey-producing district. lie and his bees were the centre of a very interested crowd during the alter noon. . . Taking the sheep classes as a whole, thero was room for improvement. 1 lie majority of the. exhibits were wellgrown, but lacking in quality. In tlie English Leicester classes the competition was weak, nnd the quality moderate, while some of the entries were not typical of their class. The ewes were on the small side, nnd showed lnck of brooding. The best English Leicester was a ewe shown by Mr Davidson. The Borders were only moderato in quality, and several of the pntrios wero not true to type. The liomneya were the redeeming feature of the sheep classes. The entries were better than in the other classes, and the type was truly represented. Some of the sheep would have stood competition in a much larger show. .Mr S. Andrews's ram was a specially good animal.

The home sections of the show were amorfg tho most interesting. The lidies of the Kaikourn district had sent forward large numbers of exhibits in the cookery classes, nnd the prizes were faitly eveniv distributed. The dairy produce classes wore not so well filled ns one might have expected, but thero was some nico produce of the farm on view. The seed classes, while not strong, furnished some very fair samples of the farmers' own growing. The wheat sample was excellent, nnd the oats of fair quality. The exhibit of potatoes was a strong feature, and the root crops were, on the whole, a credit to the district. 1 he_ flower show was another interesting Part of a very comprehensive show The sweet pens were eoual to anything -shown in Cliristchuroli, and *""'? .J'}' , ' , ' decorations indicated that tho exhibitors possessed cultivated and artistic taste. Tho cut flowers were uniformly good, and the pot plants wero passable. The display of fruit was decidedly creditable, nnd it would have compared well with that of any country show in Canterbury. Tho apples wero the most brilliant and taking feature Of this department, nnd they enme in J o special commendation. In the vegeS™ ioSiu 9eß '..x a Bant P"™Pk'n, weigh%i. ' attracr «d wondering notice Ifiero were open classes for all sorts SL- on l? st ' 1 ?- wo *' k ' , nnd . tho sch °°> children attending both nrimary nnd secondary schools had quite a large, number of classes in which to disolav their skill In writing, drawing, and other accomplishments.

Th© entries m the cattle section were not numerous, and the qunlitv was not np to the standard of the district Tho explanation might be found in the fact that it does not pay a farmer to run the risks and take tho trouble attendant on. tho exhibition of cattle. The class for miltih cows was the only ono that was above ordinary. Tho first prize bull was a typicnl massive shorthorn, but the others in tho shorthorn classes wore not remarkable. The fat bullocks and heifers, the majority of which wero of the Hereford type, made faii- classes, but generally their condition was not of the best.

In the section for pigs there was a larger entry than is usually scon at a ©ountry show, and thero was some very good quality, especially in tho Berkshire boar class. One of the features of the show was the very largo exhibit of sheep-dogs. Thero wero Collies of all ages, sizes, and colours, and varying degrees of intelligence. The judge had som© good material to work on, and all the prizo winners had to face very keen competition for their honour*. The poultry classes wero fairly well filled, the Leghorn nnd "Wynndotto classes coming out strongly and being Represented by fair quality. Ducks anel pigeons were numerically small, and disclosed nothing startling in the way of quality. The draught horses were, on the whole, an ordinary lot. The best mare, shown by Messrs Stewart nnd "Walker, showed nice action, and was of a very useful type. The brood mare class produced nothing special, and tho two-year-olds and yearliiurs were only fair. The li_ht hor-es made a decidedly better showing than the draughts, though in some of these classes thero was a noticeable Inck of condition, the classes were well filled, nnd (some of them produced very cood horses. The exhibitors, however, hove not yet ma.s-

tcred the art of showing their horses to advantage, as hardly one animal wnis. what might be termed ttood.rnan. nered in the rinc. Mr J. Johns was a •very successful exhibitor, bringing forward some nice stylish animals. Tho cV.ampion.ship in the hack classes went to one of his entries, a very nice mover and stylish-looking animal. Mr C. F. Bull had some good wins with some at-tractive-looking exhibits, nnd Mr C. Prince scored several successes, one of them being secured by c very nice mnre. The pony classes brought out 6cme good-lookine; ponies, the undoubted champion of which was a little chestnut, who showed better condition nnd style than any of the others. The competitions were remarkable for their variety, as they ran the whole gamut of sensat.ons from the leaping over hurdles to a baby <shi>w. The fair se\ showed a commendable interest in the latter, and the judge escaped unharmed. The greatest interest centred in the jumping competitions, which were fought out with extraordinary keenness. The young laelies who put their mounts at the hurdles showed any quantity of pluck, but none of them nchteved any particular success. It was the exception rather than the rul» for a lady te get her horse over both flights. "This may have been due to _omo extent to the neglect of the om-

cals to erect wings at tho jump*. whicU were thus too straight and narrow le»r a good display. The defect wis reme— j died when the men's leaping rompeti- I tion was taken, but one of the three hurdles on the ground had to be pulled down in order to construct the wings. The competition was a very strenuous one, and (sometimes amusing. Seve*ral competitors were thrown (to the huge deli'dit of the spectators), and some of the" horses bur-it through the hurdles instead of flying them. The winner was Mr E. (Tray's Angelo. which gave a very clean and attractive exhibition. The competitions were not concluded until aIK-iit ij p.m., and with them the show closed.
