BIG CROWD ATTENDS PENINSULA SHOW.

LARGE ENTRY OF HIGH QUALITY STOCK.

A large crowd attended the seventeenth annual show of tlfb Banks Peninsula Agricultural and Pastoral Society at the Domain, Little River, yesterday The entries represented an increase over last vear, and all stock cbrfiihg forward was in good condition and fair to good in quality. The weather was oppres r siveiy hot, -with no. wind in the valley to temper the fierce rays of the sun. The lilllesmere Pipe Band played an acceptable programme of music. There was not a great deal of competition in the sheep section, except in choss-breds and fats. The qualify was well tap to Peninsula standard. Sir Heaton Rhodes was the only entrant in the English Leicester classes, and carried off all 1 the honours with rams and ewes of splendid quality. Mr John Nixon ‘ dominated In Border Xt) Romney Marsh were entered, and in Southdowns Messrs Keenan Bros, and .Mr V. B. Line had the ewe classes (there were no rams) to themselves. First honours went to the brothers, Mr Blue gaining two seconds and also putting in for exhibition only a pen Of Southdown stud lambs, which looked very well. In Ryelands Mr W. O. Rennie’s rams and ewes had no opposition, but the competitive element was to the fore in eross-breds, in which the more successful contestants were Messrs YV. IT. Montgomery and J. F. Buchanan, the former being unopposed with a haifbred breeding ewe with lamb at foot. The fats were representative of more owners, and some of the fat lambs were particularly well finished. A pen or two ol’ fat sheep could have been yarded in better condition, but on the whole *the quality was good. Exceptionally fine quality in the light horses was a feature. There was n fair entry of draughts, and competition was keen in the lighter builds and spring-carters. The champion stallion was found in Mr C. Thomas’s Royal Fabric, a fine upstanding two-year-old. and the blue ribbon for mares went to a two-year-old filly owned by Mr J. O. Coop, who, Yvith Mr YV. 1:1. Boyle, was Sir Heaton Rhodes’s chief competitor in the classes for mares. In the four classes for teams in work Mr Coop was unopposed in two, and in the remainder had to take second place to Mr Boyle, who went on to annex the honours for spring-cart horses. . Two of the three classes in the military horse section were won by Mr A. J. H. M’Master with a. good type of animal suitable for mounted work. Mrs E. Glynan’s Jet gained the first award for artillery horses.

The Challenge Cup for the best hack on the ground went to Mrs A. J. 11. Al'Alaster’s The Count, which won also in the classes for hacks up to list, and ladies' hacks (district and open). The Count was not as well-mannered as Mr A. \'. Joblin’s Molyneaux, and took second place in that class. Re received very high commendation when he essayed to prove himself the most useful and active hack, this distinction falling to Mr A. G. YVaghorn’s Starlight, with Molyneaux second. In the pony classes the best animal suitable for polo was found in Mr D. Gould's Token, with Mr H. Alrnzies' Pepper second. Both saddle and harness horses showed great form and good breeding. The effttle were of good quality, and in the main were a useful-looking lot. Mr J. O. Coop shared .with Messrs'J. 15. V. Chapman and YV. Brooks the honours with beef Shorthorns, while in the milking strains the champion bull, Advance of Cornwall Park, and the champion cow. Milkmaid, were both owned by Mr T Vapmaii, who had no competition in I*..' cow classes of this section. Both championships In Jerseys were taken by Mr C. H. YVatson, with a shapely bull, Star of Donard Lodge, and a fine little cow. Dolly Pttune.' Ayshires claimed! no entries, but the best of the Friesia’ns were hard to separate in the judging. Mr J. Stalker gained champion honours with Oakland Choice, a well proportioned bull, Mr . F. Crump won with Princess Johanna Korqdyke 2nd, a cow \Vhich handled very well in the skin and had plenty of room in the shoulders and round, the heart. The awards fox* fat cattle were shared by Messrs A. 13. Birdling,"J. F. Buchanan and C. Craw, and In the dairjing section Mr E. A. Patten gained first honours over the Others The ci'oss-breds were a useful lot and there was fair competition.
