EIPON AND CLA.ro POULTRY SHOW. 



At the annual Show held at Ripou July 3rd, poultry and 

 Pigeons were allotted a section, but the prizes were small, and 

 it la a matter of surprise to U3 that so mauy entries can be got 

 for the araoant; yet this proves the popularity of the Society, 

 and is sufficient guarantee that with a good list the poultry and 

 Pigeons would become a self-supporting and very interesting 

 portion of the programme. The pens were borrowed from the 

 Northalltrtnu Society, whose assistant was in close attendance 

 tht^ whole of the day; and the birds well fed and watered. 



Of Game there were ten pens, bat only three of any quality ; 

 the first Duckwiugs, and second Brown Reds. Spanish were 

 moderate, the hens good. The positions at Tnirsk being reversed, 

 the first hen having attained considerable condition meantime. 

 Dorkings and Brahmas were poor; only one good pen of Gri've- 

 Ccenrs was sent. Polands pretty good, the winners Golden. 

 Cuchin'i very poor, except the first-prize Buff ben; the second 

 beiug Black. There were some fair Hamburghs, the best were 

 the Golden-pencils; the first going to a splendid cock about 

 perfect in all respects, and a pretty fair hen ; second a good cook 

 in all respects, except that his tail was too r^il, but the hen 

 better. Pen 332, very highly commended, had by far the best 

 ben, but the cock had a horrid comb, and nearly a black tail. 



Laced BantamH were bad ; while there were soma good Blacks. 

 In Game Bantims the first was carried off with a stylish pair 

 of Black Reds ; second a pen of Pile chickens; and extra second 

 a good pair of Black Reds. 



Turkeys large, the first prize hen a very fine one. Geese also 

 large, but all irregular in colour. In both classes of Duckn were 

 aouid good ones, and the solitary pair of Blacks in the Variety 

 clasH were of rare quality. In extra stock was a very good pair 

 of Rumpless fowls, a variety not often seen so perfect as these. 



Pigeons were a grand display, every class containing high 

 quality, ilr. Horner carrying off most of the prizes offered 

 with birds in capital bloom. In Carriers both were Duns, the 

 first heavy birds ; and second of this year. E aglish O wis were 

 a good even lot, the first being graad-headed birds. In Magpiea 

 an extra second was given, the class being very good. A pair of 

 Blue African Owls won in the Variety class; the second being a 

 pretty pair of Pigmy Pouters. 



Only one class was provided ior liabhifs ; an amateur giving 

 a cup, which he also succeeded winning with ahandsome Black- 

 and-white Lop buck.

WARMTH FOR YOUNG PIGEONS. 



The amateur Pigeon fanciers among your readers may take a 

 hint from the following incident. On visiting my aviary this 

 morning I was much vexed at finding that a pair of high-bred 

 Almond Tumblers had so neglected their family duties that the 

 survivor of a pair of their offspring, a week old, was jiint dying 

 of starvation and cold. At first I thought it was actually dead, 

 and picking it out of the nest pan I " laid it out " on a shelf, de- 

 termined *' to bury it decently," and swallow my grief. A 

 moment afterwards it gasped faintly, and a sudden thought 

 struck me, Why shouldn't I try an experiment ? Catching up 

 my little patient I hurried into the kitchen, and Crilliug for a 

 flannel pet — a piece of flannel — I wrapped it carefully round the 

 dying bird and popped it into the oven, cautioning the cook not 

 to bake it alive. 



In another minute I was off to *' the daily grindstone," and 

 on my return home to luncheon cook came to me as soon as 

 I was iuriide the house, beariug in triumph my poor little bird 

 still wrapped warmly up in the flannel, but now as lively as a
