CLITIIEROE POULTRY SHOW. 



Not a doubt can exist on the mind of any reflective amateur thai 

 poultry exhibitions are mneh injured in the present dny by so many 

 being lield simultaneously, or at best, ou consecutive days. Thi3 

 materially lessens the number of entries, and wliere valuable birds are 

 shown day after day without rest, and with all the excitement of long 

 railway jonrnej's they are much injured, and not nnfrequeutly the 

 result is their complete destruction. Highly bred birds cannot endure 

 this continuous fatigue, without almost their entire value being loat as 

 breeding-stock, and. as a rule, no bird^ if they are to retain a tirst-rate 

 condition should be exhibited ofteuer than once a-fortni^ht. 



The Clitheroe Show, held Angnst 27th, wai undoubtedly a good one, 

 and every attention was given to the management, the only drawback 

 being heavy scudding showers of rain, which annoyed the sight-seers. 

 The Show on the whole went off very well, though a half-dozen similar 

 meetings held the same week could not do otherwise than limit the 

 entries.
