POULTRY SHOW

A FINE EXHIBITION QUALITY IMPROVED THE PRIZE LIST Although the number of entries in this year’s poultry show is less than for last year, the quality is much improved. Birds bred for utility are particularly in evidence, while the racing pigeon section is considerably greater than before. The show is to be concluded this afternoon.
