WORCESTER POULTRY SHOW. 



This Show opened on the 'iJlh inst., and will olosc toduv. The 

 competition was restricted exelnsively to chickens, und considering tiic 

 time of 3'ear, it lias rarely been our privilege to meet with its equal in 

 general quality. The arran^^eiuents, as might be anticipated, under 

 the eye of Mr. Holland, need no improvement, and the courtesy and 

 the desito of that geutlcmau to meet the wishes of all exhibitors, 

 claim the highest approval. 



The Oamc classes might certainly have been stronger, the hnlli of 

 these varieties beijig somewhat out of feather. The Grey Dorldiiij, on 

 the eontrai-y, was one of the most meritorious of classes ; and the Bull 

 and Partridge ('ochitts were of unusual excellence. Of Darli Brahmu; 

 there was one of the best and heaviest entries in the Sliow, exceeding 

 the anticipations of most poultry exhibitors. The Light-colnnred 

 Brahmas were good, but there was not a large entry. All the Hani- 

 iurghs were excellent, the Blacks, Silver-pencilled, and Silver-spangled 

 being especially so. Oaine Bantams were mostly the worse for moult- 

 ing, but many pens from our first rate breeders were to be found 

 among the Mriuuers. Ijaced Sebright Bantams were a weak entry, and, 

 nnfortnnatcly. some of the best birds arrived too late for competition. 



Of Oeese, Turlrus, and DucJ:^ we do not wish to see better entries ; 

 they were all first-rate. The class for any other variety of Ducks was 

 unexpectedly a weak one, a pen of excellent Buenos Ayrean being 

 tirst, and a pen of common Teal second. 



As regards the wenther, nothing could be more favourable, and there 

 was a very large attendance of visitors. Messrs. Tnrner's pens left 

 nothing to be desired in the way of improvement, and every attention 

 was paid to the poultry.

KNARESBOROUGH POULTRY SHOW. 



This Show, held on the 2Uh ins! , was not so large as several of 

 those which took place in previous years, though in quality Bomo ol 

 the birds were faultless. 



The most noticeable birds were the Sjianuh liens in the first-prize 

 pen, and those in the winning pens of Haviburqlts. The Dorkings, 

 Guitw, and f,V7(/ii.s were moderately good. The winning Pifftons 

 were very good. fi*.*-,,^ 



The day was very fine, the Show well supported, and another year 

 the Committee will, doubtless, be able to so far augment the prize list 

 as to secnre a larger show. 



The following is the prize list ; —
