The satisfactory progress 01’ mo |Hamilton Jersey «.ltih during the put iseaaon was reviewed at the annual sweating ot‘ the club in the rooms of who \\‘ai‘.;ato Agricultural and Pastoral Association )emxl‘dd}. when the presi—'ielli, .\ir \\". T. Liixtoti. presided. ; in his. annual report the president “titted that while the balance sheet again showed an increase. littls ictivity had taken place within the club. The club's second annud dance had proved most successful .llld had resulted in LI net profit of £6. . The combined breeders' hull sale Add shown a steady improvement in :im quality or the cattle altered. The ciuu's delegates had been responsible tor alterations in the rules and con- . duct 0: the sale. The most important of these had been that Jerseys should not follow out first day alter the other breeds, and this had resulted in the sale 01' other breeds on the last Jay or the sale. Another innovation .\.hich had proved a great success had .JCCH the introduction of a minimum bid or igns. This had tended to keep .he sale from slackening. The animal iudge, .\lr it. A. Lewis. had carried oul his duties in a uatisi‘actory manner, ,‘m'erai bulls being rejected because 01 iuully typE. Ii Buttorfnt stand“. i A turther alteration was required in i he butteriat standard at the sale. the .slundil‘d requiring to he graduated according to the type of test and ass ui‘ cow. This matter was one in which the club‘s delegates would require some direction. A resolution had been passed at the ..ist meeting of the Combined Breedsrs' ‘nssociation to the exact that the l .crsey Club should consider the Ad.‘isability of lifting the bar on the solo or outside bulls. i \\’ith the improved outlook tor dairy ~ produce and with a considerable shortiam- at all dairy cattle. breeders could f .wk tot-ward to improved sales and neuter demand for their stock. concluded .\ir Luxton.

Lining of lon Favoured. In voicing the opinion that the in: .hould be lifted, .\ir S. B. Webb state not when outside bulls were refused hey were forced on to the market at he national sale, which was held a week before the combined sale. The tV'ilikle was the best market. and he iid not think that local breeders would want to send their bulls to outhde district club sales. The inclusion o! outside stock would mean the in» increment or the sale. .\ir .\liers replied that if the Waikato was the best market it would mean .hat too many bulls Irom outside districts would be entered [or the comoined sale. There would never have tieen a combined sale in the Waikato r the Jersey club had held club sales. s was the practice in other districts. That there were more. bulls in the .Vaikato than comd prolltably be sold .ras the opinion of .\ir 11. .\loreland. \ better demand would hardly be 'reatcd it outside slot-it were permitcd to be enicrcii at the sale.
