AGRICULTURAL HALL.
; •: -V ; '.. [by ' telegraph.—special correspondent.] , . Auckland, April IQ. • There is some probability of, tlio estab-; lishmcnt. in Auckland 111 the near future of ; an Agricultural and Industrial Hall,, wherov ; in! such fixtures as.a winter show or ail in-: • dustrial redhibition could bo hold. The Agri-: : cultural : and Pastoral Association had to u abandon its "winter, show this year owing to having no ball in which to hold it,, and for tlio sarao reason tlio proposed industrial exhibition had also to bo. abandoned, - and' a--. shop'window display substituted. Tho idea is that the Association, conjointly with the ' 'Industrial Association, should securo a sito ! . somewhere near a .tramways penny section, . and thero erect _ a commodious olie-stary \ ■ building,'"which might oontain all the departments, of a great winter show, including a . machinery court, hall of manufactures;'and.'., stalls for fat sheep and cattle. Both the Agricultural and tlio Industrial Associations ■ aro. no\jr very largo and 1 influential organisations/ and avo increasing , their membership, so that if shows of any magnitude arc to bo held in Auckland the emotion; of a suitable building becomes a noces-: :. sity.
