SYDNEY, March 18.

The weather was perfect for the opening of the show, which promises to prove, the usual brilliant success. The cattle sections are somewhat affected by the drought and Clydesdales have suffered from the paucity of New Zealand entries, which were a feature in past years. Sheep, despite the dry season, provide an excellent display, but pigs are not worthy of the occasion and the magnitude of the industry in the State.
