BUKTON-ON-TRENT POULTKY SHOW. 



The second annual Exhibition held in connection with the 

 Flower Show, tool: place on Wednesday the ISth inst. This being 

 in the midst of the breeding season, the entries were not so 

 numerous as the prize list led the Committee to expect. How- 

 ever, some good birds were exhibited, especially the first-prize 

 birds in the Clear Yellow and Buff Norwich classes. In the 

 Silver Lizard class a bird exhibited by Mr. Bunting, of Derby, 

 was disqualified, being deficient in tail feathers; upon examina- 

 tion it was found that a white feather had been cut out, the 

 stumi) remaining, and two feathers besides were missing. There 

 was a general opinion expressed that it would be highly desir- 

 able to hold the exhibition of Canaries at the August Flower 

 Show, as the alteration in the time would give breeders a better 

 opportimity of sending their birds.

BELFAST POULTRY SHOW. 



This Show was held on the 19th and 20th inst., and is in con- 

 nection with the North- Kast (Ireland) Agricultural Association. 

 A challenge cup value i'lU (to be won three times in succession 

 by the same exhibitor), having been twice gained by Mr. Mul- 

 ligau, that gentleman seemed to have made great efforts to secure 

 the coveted prize, and the result was that it was won with 

 eighty-three points against sixteen of the nest on the list. The 

 entries were not so large as at the last Show, which was, no 

 doubt, on account of the challenge cups being given for points ; 

 and it is our opinion that if three cups of three guineas each 

 were offered, the result would be much more satisfactory to all 

 concerned, and also in point of entries to the treasury of the 

 Society. The quality of the winners was mostly good, but there 

 were some poor specimens sho\\Ti. 



Dorkings were a fair class, the first Dark and the second 

 Silver-Greys ; but in chickens of this year only the first-prize 

 pair were noteworthy, and these were Silver-Greys. Both old 

 and young Spaiiish were very good, the chickens being particu- 

 larly promising ; and the Cochins and Bralnnas also of fair 

 quality, but failing in plumage. Only two birds in the Spangled 

 Hamburgh classes were tit for the show pen, these being the 

 Silver cock and hen in the first-prize pen ; but in both classes 

 of Pencils the first-i^rize birds were good and in nice plumage. 

 In Game Brown Reds were first and Duckwings second, and in 

 Bantams Black Reds and Piles won respectively. There were 

 three classes for Fulands but only one entry, which were "White- 

 crested Blacks. Turkeys and Gccsc were large and good in both 

 classes; and in all the four classes of Ducks there were some 

 excellent birds shown, although there was only one pen of Roueu 

 ducklings. 



The birds were placed in excellent pens in permanent sheds, 

 the arrangements being good and the fowls well attended to,
