BINGLET POULTRY SHOW. 



The seventh annual Show of the Airedale Agricultural Society 

 took place on the 27th of August at Bingley. The following 

 report on the Pigeons has reached us. 



{From a Correspondent.) 

 Pigeons. — Pouter cocks had four entries. A Blue was first; 

 this bird also "won the cup for the best bird in this and the 

 three following classes. A White was second. In the hens 

 Yellow and "White were first and second. Of Carrier cocks 

 there were four entries ; both the winners were Blacks, and the 

 judging of several previoua shows was reversed, and in the 

 opinion of all Mr. AUsop was right. In hens a good Dun and 

 Black were the winners. Almond Tumblers consisted of five 

 pens, and four of them were birds such as are seldom met with 

 at any show. In Tumblers, Any other variety, a grand Ked 

 Whole-feather was first, a Black Mottle second, and Ked Agates 

 were highly commended and commended. Barbs were a good 

 class, Blacks were the winners. Foreign Owls were remarkably 

 good ; White was first, and Blue second. English Owls were a 

 grand class of twenty-two pens ; a good old-fashioned Silver was 

 first, White second, A Silver, very highly commended, was 

 the best-conditioned bird in the class, aud with age will be 

 difficult to beat. In Jacobins, Red or Yellow, a good Red hen 

 was first, a Yellow cock second; and in Jacobins, Any other 

 colour, a remarkably good White with jjerfect pearl eyes was 

 first; this bird obtained the cup for the best bird in this, the 

 preceding, and two following classes. A good Black was second. 

 Of Fantails there were twenty-sis pens of such birds as are 

 seldom seen ; tweuty-four of them were Whites, one Black, and 

 one Blue. The first-prize bird was the largest-tailed and best- 

 carriaged bird seen for some time. The whole of this class was 

 highly commended. Of Turbits there were nineteen pens of all 

 colours ; Black was first, and Yellow second. In Dragoons, Blue 

 or Silver, Blues were the winners of both prizes. Dragoons, 

 Any other colour, had four entries, Yellow being first ; this bird 

 won the cup for the best bii'd in this, the preceding, aud four 

 following classes. A Red was second, Yellow being highly com- 

 mended and commended. Of Short-faced Antwerps there were 

 twenty-three entries ; Red Chequers were the winners. Long- 

 faced Antwerps had the same number of entries as the pre- 

 ceding class ; Blue was first, a Dun second. In the class for 

 Any other variety a Trumpeter was first, Blondinette second. 



This was a good class. In the Selling class there were fourteen 

 entries; Black Barbs first. Blue Owls second. 



The arrangements were good, and the birds well fed and 

 watered. The Show was held under a spacious marquee; and 

 under the management of so good a Committee and enthusiastic 

 and ardeut a fancier as the Secretary, Mr. Thompson, all went 

 smoothly and well. This was certainly the best Show of Pigeons 

 we have seen in Yorkshire for some time. The entries reached 

 231 pens, affording another proof, if any were wanted, that the 

 single-bird plan is far the best.
