SPRING SHOW

OPENING DAY TO-DAY Awards Made in Several Sections GOOD SCHOOL ENTRIES. To-day will bo judges’ day at the Wanganui Agricultural Association’s Spring Show, and will mark the opening of the two-days’ fixture, which has long been established as a vital factor in the agricultural and industrial life of the district. It is true that the show is capable of greater development, and could be made an even more important factor in the improvement of stock, but, nevertheless, it has proved of value to farmers, and this year’s exhibition will be no exception. Entries are very satisfactory, and in some sections, sheep in particular, a substantial increase is shown over the figures for recent years.
