FRANKLIN CENTENNIAL SHOW LARGE ATTENDANCE ON SATURDAY MAGNIFICENT ANIMALS ON PARADE WHOOPEE THE CHAMPION HUNTER A JERSEY TAKES HONOURS IN DAIRY SECTION CONCLUDING AWARDS The Franklin Agricultural and Pastoral Society’s FiftyUfth (Centennial) Annual Show was concluded on Saturday which was Peoples’ Day.

Although the weather was dull and threatening there was a large attendance, and an amount, well in excess ol £6OO was taken at the gates, compared with more than £7OO last year. The gate receipts were considered as very satisfactory in view of the prevailing conditions—the war, petrol restrictions and unsettled weather. The society can regard itself as being in luck’s way as far as the weather was concerned. During the two days rain threatened but heavy laden clouds melted away before they floated over the showgrounds, and not a spot of rain was experienced while the show was in progress.

The attractions on Saturday were the grand parade of stock and the ring competitions. While the parade was being marshalled thousands of people

gathered at vantage points to view one of the finest displays of stock seen at Pukekohe. The quality of the horses was as good as any tiling ever seen at a Franklin show, and according to the judge the hacks and hunters were well up to the Royal Show standard. More horses have been seen in the local siiow ring, but belter quality, r well it is doubtful.

The Jersey cattle presented a grand spectacle. In numbers and quality they upheld the reputation enjoyed by Jerseys in this part of the Dominion. Friesians. this year, provided a magnificent display equal to anything seen in the Auckland Province. The Milking Shorthorn breed was in no way disgraced by the exhibit at Pukekohe, while the Ayrshires were fewer in number than previously and did not reach the high standard set previously. The Value of A. and P. Shows

The lull strength of the cull* club section was not represented in the parade, mainly prize winners being seen. This was a pity as the section was particularly strong this year both in numbers and as regards quality. The parade gave visitors to the show a good idea of what is going on behind the A. and P. movement, the amount of skill required in the breeding of- show animals, their handling and general preparation to take their places in the competitive ring. From an educational point of view A. and Pshows are playing a noble part and deserve every possible encouragement. Without such exhibitions it is doubtful whether such high qualify and outstanding animals would be seen by the general public. Everyone loves a beautiful animal and there were many on the Franklin showgrounds on Friday and Saturday of last week.

As usual the ring competitions attracted keen attention and they were full of interest. The outstanding hunter was Mrs Martin Johnston’s Whoopee, which carried off the Franklin centennial hunters’ championship and with it the Massey memorial gold cup and a first prize of £SO. Whoopee also won other events on the day. Mr J. it. Wilson’s D’Artagnan was runner-up in the big event after registering a sterling performance. Others went well and the judge had a difficult task in making , the award. The children’s competitions attracted large entries and there was keen but friendly rivalry lie tween hoys and girls.
