There was a very large attendance, including Mr O. W. Forbes, M.P., and Mr J. T. M. Hornsby, M.P., and visitors from various ' parts of Canterbury and Marlborough. Tho entries, in tho aggregate, were a record, wliilo (he ' quality wua very commendable throughout. Tho .fiheep classes wcro the largest lor several years past. Comment was • maUo by visitors at tho non-inclusion of any merino classes. Tho judges had a difficult tnslc in making their awards, there being . very little between tho exhibits. This was particularly marked in Uomneye and fats, 'i'ho success of small farmers in a few of tho classes was very popular. A. J. Murray was in the van as a winner, J. G. Garrett being a good runnor-up. J. S. Kennedy's win in freezing halfbreds shows that tho small grazing runholder can hold his own. • 'There wns not a largo entry in draughts, but competition was very keen. Mr A. J. Murray (Woodbank) wns awarded first honours in four classes. Tho light horse- entries were tho best in the Association's his- ' tory, and the competition was most keen. Public form in the south was endorsed l>y . tho award of the championship for hacks to ; ~\MUs Giles's Monarch. Tho ponies ware numerous, and constituted a good ' section. Mrs Cholmonrleley's Boss won by a slight . margin in the major. class. In cattle, tho entry was over tho average. J. and J. "W. Davidson gained all tho firsts in fats, small ' farmers' 'being to the for© ill milk cows. Pigs wcro not numerous, but tho quality was ' prime. Ivan Slano was tho most successful exhibitor with t. Poulter next in order. " Frank Kerr won in tho three dog classes. ' In poultry, which was a weak section, W. E. Richardson was the chief pr.izc-taker. There was ft very fine exhi'oition in tho domestic, orchard,' and juvenile sections. Fruit was tho ■ foremost - exi hibit in. tho hall, the apples beins exceptionally fine.'-Most of the prizes went to > the Clarence. River area. Tho exhibits of flowers were good, but not numerous. The, juveniles ■competed -famously in needle work, writing, drawing, and technical work (wood, and • plasticine). Rooti and, vegetables were un- ' equal to-most previous'shows. F. H.
