SHOW SECRETARY
VISITOR FROM VICTORIA [BY TELEGBAPH —PBESS ASSOCIATION] INVERCARGILL. Monday Among the passengers who arrived by the Maunganui was Mr. Louis Monod, secretary of the Royal Agricultural Society of Victoria, who will make a holiday tour of the South and North Islands. His society, he said, held its annual show in September, and did not clash with other State agricultural shows. Each State held its own Royal Show. There was keen inter-State competition from breeders. Exhibitors from four States regularly competed in Melbourne and sometimes five States were represented. The last show was the 67th held by the society. It was the first complete day and night show and lasted nine days and eight nights.
