INANGAHUA
A. AND P- SHOW. (Own Correspondent.) REEFTON, March 13. The annual show of the A. and P. Association, (which has been in abeyance for the war period) was held on Friday and Saturday on the Beet ton ,Racecourse. The weather was ideal on Friday and though showery on Saturday morning, was fine in the afternoon and the people who attended the show had a most enjoyable outing. The grounds were in fine condition and proved to be ideal for the occasion. The number of entries in the various classes were not large but in nearly every section were of great merit. The number of cattle and sheep exhibitors was disappointing considering the many farmers in the district but even so the judging by Air. Stecens was of such a character as to bo an education to those who wanted to improve their stock. The Horse section was well filled, while in the Poultry class some birds were shown which would have carried a prize at any show in New Zealand.
The produce, flowers nad vegetables also showed what could be grown in the Inangahua district, and were a distinct credit io those who exhibited The display of school work was good, particularly in the writing competition and the Cooking classes. The Committee arc to be congratulated on providing such a fine afternoon s programme for the public’s amusement as was arranged for Saturday.
