SPRING SHOW.
The entries for the above event have now finally closed and in numbers exceed those of last year considerably. Taken ail round the entries are excellent and every promise is given for the Thirty-Eighth Grand Metropolitan Show being a greater success than its numerous predecessors. In the sheep section the entries this year number 471 as against 288 last year and pigs this year 64, last year 44. Some of the sections in the cattle are not so good as last year, chiefly because of the bad winter the farmers have hndj but taken all round the entries are nearly a hundred above the figures for last year. Once more the public are asked to note the days of the show are Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of next week. Any information that is required may be obtained from the secretary, box 85, Palmerston North,: or ’phone 5455.
