SUNDERLAND AND WEAR POULTRY SHOW. 



This Society's fourth Show was held December Hist and January 1st. 

 As a whole the display of poultry was highly creditable, and in some 

 of the classes it would be difficult to beat several of the specimens. 

 Those of special quality were the cup and first, and second prize Red 

 (fame, and the cock in the third-prize pen. The whole of the Cochins 

 and the single Ganu '''eels were exceedingly well shown. Among the 

 Game Bantams were some perfect birds both in the pens and among 

 single cocks, the males especially being perfect models of their larger 

 relatives. Two first prizes were awarded for Duckwings, the extra prize 

 being given to a pen, the hen in which was ill at the time of judging, 

 but she having laid proved one of the best in the Show. Tho 

 Black Bantams were also good, and the Sebrights of average quality. 

 The Brahma Pootras were better than we expected, but the I/am- 

 6wrj^ were bad. Iu the " Variety Class " were exhibited Gueldres, 

 Houdans, cross-breds, and Malays. 



The TurJoeys and Pi a J-'rd were shown in very large pens, and the 

 birds could be well seen. Altogether the Show is in good hands, and 

 it bids fair to become an important one.

BEDLINGTON POULTRY SHOW. 



This was held January 1st, and was well attended. The various 

 breeds of poultry are much cultivated in the district, bnt the preference 

 is given to Game and Game Bantams. In some of the classes there 

 were some good birds, but the single Game cocks, the Black Red 

 lam pallets, and the first-prize Brahma pullet, and second- 

 prize Golden Poland in the single hen class, were the best. Of Ham- 

 burghs, the first-prize Silver-spangled and the prize Pencilled birds 

 were best. There were also some very creditable Spanish, Cochins, 

 and Brahmas.
