WATFORD POULTRY SHOW. 



The annual Exhibition of the West Herts Agricultural So- 

 ciety was held on December 15th and 16th, in the Agricultural 

 Hall, Watford, a building of recent construction, admirably 

 adapted for the purpose. The prizes included several £5 5s. 

 cups, offered by various gentlemen in the neighbourhood, and in 

 this way exhibitors who might have competed elsewhere were 

 induced to rest content witli the substantial honours of a Show 

 which is confined to those living within a certain area. 



In Dorkings the Rev. E. Bartrum won the cup with a pen 

 which would be hard to beat. The cock, we believe, was a 

 winner at the Crystal Palace, and the hens have already been 

 honourably mentioned in this Journal. Curiously enough, 

 although the Show is essentially an agricultural one, and the 

 number of Dorkings exhibited is large, there is no Dorking 

 class open to Silvers or Cuckoos. The Cochins were numerous, 

 but very few pens were noticed. The Brahnias were not so 

 large a class as they ought to be. Some Japanese Bantams 

 attracted much attention. The Selling class (a cock and two 

 hens at a price not exceeding £2), with a first x>riz6 of .£3, con- 

 tained a number of excellent birds, Lord Chesham wirming 

 with a capital pen of Dorkings. The Geese and Turkei/s con- 

 stituted two of the best classes in the Show, nearly every pea 

 being noticed.
