MANIOTOTO FANCIERS CLUB.

NINTH ANNUAL SHOW. The ninth annual show of the Maniototo Fanciers' Club vas held at Naseby on the 3th inst., and attracted a large number of visitors to the town from the- surrounding district. The exhibition was held - in the - Town Hall, >the Volunteer HalL being used for the exhibition of dogs and the Oddfellows' Hall for the exhibition of poultry andpigeon©. It will be remembered that, the show of last year was rendered nugatory on account of the very severe snowstorm' which commenced the day preceding that fixed for the show. This year the committee arranged for the date one month in advance of that formerly used, and although ,it was found that this brought the , fixture somewhere near to $ie date of Ifae Dunedin winter show, still there is less likelihood of a repetition of ' last year's experience. With" the exception of the class for poultry, the whole of the entries, and exhibits were well maintained, and, in tfhe main, compare favourably with those of- previous years. The fact that there is no championship for Naseby this year and that the date fixed is somewhat early for exhibiting birds, no* doubt accounts for the faJling-off in the number of entries in poultry. Mr E. O. Reilly, of Dunedin, acted as judge of the poultry. Towards ths -conclusion of the evening the president made an appropriate speech', ihanking thesa pr-eseni for their attendance and -support to the exhibition, and pointing, out that the show, from an educational standpoint alone, more than justified its existence. The pigeons' which took part in fh. homing match to Dunedin also competed for exhibition prizes at the show. In the cock class there was very little to choose between the first 10, the judge Mr H. W. • Hilton) eventually awarding first prize to Mr J. C. Short's bird, second 1 to Mr B. J, Finnegan, and third to Mr Veitch. Hens : Mr Fmnegan's Apres Moi stood ,out alone as the best hen; Mr J.
