Feilding Star, Oroua and Kiwitea Counties' Gazette. MONDAY JANUARY 31, 1916. FEILDING'S SHOW SEASON.

Can'you sense it? The show season is wjth us. The Feilding festival for farmers is on right now. The folks from afar are already in ipivn- Tomorrow, from break of day, breeders and their assistants and the stewards will bo up to their eyes in the business of getting ready for the judges, who will have a hard time of it separating tho winners the ncarlywinners. For it is generally agreed that the-quality of the animals that arc entered in the various contests is of high class, and tho. places will bo keenly contested. Wednesday will be People's Day, #jid a big crowd from all tlie ends of this porpign the earth will be present—critics, students, and just holiday-makers. The season has beem a fat an<l flourishing time for ouf farmers, some .of whom have been so .extraordinarily busy in money-making operations jtlia-t they have not had cither time or inclination to prepare stock for to-mor-row's Show-—which, after all, w'4l fee held by some folks to be a goodenough reason for absence from the catalogues. Nevertheless, the. Show will undoubtedly provide a splendid ex>ibition of the products and produce of the Fejjding district and will prove a worthy representation of the pedigree stock of the West £toasr.
