MONMOUTH POULTKY SHOW. 



All the arrangemeuta at thia Show were well carried out. The 

 Dorkings p,ood; a nice pen of Silver-Greys first. The first young 

 Buff Cochins were good. Dark and Light Brahmas good; but 

 some of the pens badly matched. French and Folands con- 

 tained good birds. Spanish, iirat prize withheld, and the second 

 and third-prize birds were not worth the carriage home. Ham- 

 burghs very good, as the names will show; but there should be 

 a class for each variety. Silvers were first in each class, Golds 

 second. The prize birds in the Game class were good; first 

 Brown Reds; second Black Reds; third Piles. In the Any 

 other variety class a grand pen of Black Hamburgha were first; 

 to this pen also was awarded the extra prize for the best pen iu 

 the Show. Bantams were all in one class, and there were some 

 grand birds of all varieties. The first prize went to a sweet 

 little pen of Silver-laced; the second to a nice pen of yellow- 

 legged Piles (the proper colour for the legs of Pile Game); the 

 third to Black Reds, the cock in grand feather, but a little large. 

 There was a nice pen of Blacks, but the hen was deformed. 



Aylesbury Ducks good; but the second best pen was thrown 

 out from having one leg marked. Rouen Ducks were creditable. 

 Of Ducks, Any other variety, the first prize was given to White 

 Calls ; the second to Grey Calls. Mr. Sainsbury sent two pens 

 of Black East Indian, but they arrived too late for competition. 

 Geese vjexG grand; and Turkeys also very good. In cross-bred 

 fowls and Ducks Mr. Rolls swept the deck with birds of but 

 little merit.

BRADFORD PIGEON SHOW. 



The second Show projected and carried out by a few keen 

 fanciers, at the head of whom were Messrs. Beldon and Hawley, 

 was held in the Odd Fellows' Hall on the 14th and 15th inat. 

 This was by far the largest Show ever held except at the Crystal 

 Palace, there being close upon a thousand entries. Turner's 

 pens were used, and placed three tiers high; for though the room 

 was large and pretty well lighted, yet no room had to be lost to 

 get all iu, the consequence being that some were placed a little 

 too high. The management was extremely good, a capital staff 

 of feeders looking well to the wants of the birds. 



Pouters were first on the list, and while Mr. Cannan judged 

 these we thought we saw some of the old fever setting-in, while 

 first one and then another well-trained bird answered to the 

 call, and certain it is we thought he would never have left them. 

 Cocks, Black and Blue, had twenty entries, first and second 

 going to Blue, and third to a Black, all very fine in shape, long 

 in limb and feather, but the second-prize bird very shy. Hens, 

 Blue and Black — the first Blue in splendid show, fine in limb 

 and feather, but a little faulty in colour, or the cup would have 

 gone here ; second a showy Black, and third a Blue. Twelve 

 entries. Cocks any other colour, a grand Yellow first and cap 

 (Fulton); second, Mr. Bryce, Edinburgh; and third, Mr. Horner. 

 Hens, first a splendid White, second Red, and third White. 



In Almonils the prizes went more to head, beak, and eye than 

 colour, the first and second being somewhat dark. In Any other 

 Short-faces the first was a good Black Mottle, very quickly 

 claimed at A'3 ; second a Red Mottle ; and third a Yellow Agate. 

 Mr. Harvey's well known Dun Barb cock won the cup for this 

 section, second Mr. Horner, and third Mr. Clay. And in the 

 next class Mr. Clay was first, and Mr. Fulton second and third. 

 Pen 151, Mr. Stanley's, contained a cock bird, and was disqualified 

 at once ; such conduct cannot be suflSciently condemned. 



Carriers were good in all classes, though there were some 

 birds left out on account of deformity or illness of one kind or 

 other. In Black cocks the first outdistanced all the rest, al- 

 though out of feather, the style and carriage, head and beak 

 grand; second Mr. E. Horner with a good young bird; third, 

 Mr. E. Fulton, also very good, most of the others receiving 

 notice. In Any other colour Mr. Fulton showed a marvelloua
