OXFORD SHOW.

SPLENDID EXHIBITION. CORRIEDALES AND DRAUGHTS A FEATURE. The twenty-third annual slum- ui the Oxford Agricultural and Pastoral Association was held on Thursday. The weather conditions were ideal, and as was expected there was a large attendance. Tiie gate returns, however, showed a slight drop on the previous year, the takings being just over £GG. The excellent management of the president, 31 r Alex. Baxter, and a strong committee, with Mr Lancelot Watoon as secretary, was a factor in the great success of the show.

. The exhibits in the horse and cattle sections were exceptionally good, more particularly in the draught horse section. As usual at this show, light horses, cobs, aud ponies were the outstanding features. The entries were by far tho largest of any of the North Canterbury Shows, and the competition was very keen. In the sheep section the Corriedales were a feature, most of the wellknown flocks in the district being represented. Jerseys were a strong feature in the cattle section, closely followed by Shorthorns and Friesians. In tho agricultural section there was a very fine entry of roots, one of the finest seen at any of the shows this season. Poultry and dogs were also well represented. A great feature of the show was the domestic section, there being large entries in all the classes. The art and needlework section was particularly good, and the entries were very large, there being ten to twelve entries in most classes. For this time of the year the show of flowers was exceptionally good. Owing to the largo number of entries in the competitions, these were not concluded until a lato hour.
