STOCK PARADE

TE AWAMUTU SHOW : HIGH STANDARD ENTRIES JUDGES PRAISE QUALITY (Times Special Reporter) TE AWAMUTU, Saturday A high standard of quality wa* | evident among the stock entries at j the 18th annual and Centennial Show lof the Te Awamutu Agricultural* i Pastoral and Horticultural Associa- ! tion, which was held at Albert Park I today. The show is the first of the I Waikato circuit this year. The representative nature of the attend--1 ance was an indication of the wide interest taken in the district’s annual display of dock and dairy produce. Classes in the dairy cattle section j were well supported, and sheep and I pigs were forward in good numbers. Horses, both heavy and light, provided a strong section. The ring ; events were keenly contested and were watched by a large gallery. Large entries were judged in the home industries section, which wa# j one of the features of the show. ! Despite heavy rain throughout the ! day, there was a good attendance. Championship Awards LhjhJ Horses:—Hack: Mrs Erie ' Storey’s Daylight. 1 Ayrshires.—Bull: W. C. Wallace’# 1 Grecnan Borascope.
