INANGAHUA

A. & P. SHOW RESULTS

(Our Own Correspondent.) REEFTON, March 9

The opening day of the Inangahua A. and P. Association’s 13th Annual Show took place in splendid weather. The attendance of the public was particularly good. The school children put up a fine showing in the various events they were engaged in, and their performance and the precision of movement in the drill and marching reflected great credit on the teachers who have been painstaking in the training of the youngsters. The display of fruit, flowers and vegetables drew forth high praise from the Judge in that section. The display was in his opinion marred by lack of room in showing. The collection of flowers from one garden, Mr. H. Buckland’s, in reality needed almost the whole room available for the flower section, and crushed up as the blooms were, they made an excellent showing showing what could be done in the district with a little industry, and knowledge of how to apply. Draught horses showed better quality than is generally met with at local shows. The cattle and sheep exhibits although of good standard quality, were not as numerous as one would expect from the surrounding district. The produce section of the show can always hold its own. All the present exhibits were well up to the Show’s high standard. The results were (the number of entries being shown in parentheses): —
