THE WAIRARAPA SHOW.

The prospects of the 35th annual fixture of the Wairarapa and East Coast P. and A. Society at Carterton next month are very encouraging. One of the most important of these interests is the membership, which has been increased by nearly 100. The consideration given during the year to the very valuable stock which is regularly brought to this Show by breeders from all parts will be appreciated by those visiting Carterton on October 23 and 24. All purebred sheep will be under cover, two large roofs having been lately erected over the pens. In the cattle classes, the Society already possesses 110 covered stalls. This number is to be increased by 30, now in process of building, making 140 covered stalls in all for cattle. For thoroughbred and draught horses 42 covered stalls have been on the grounds for some years, and 24 have lately been erected, making a covered accommodation for 66 horses. A perusal of the Society's schedule will show intending exhibitors that very satisfactory arrangements have again been made by the Traffic Department of the N.Z. Railways. Applications for schedules should be sent to the secretary, Mr H. S. Moss, at Carterton.
