DEPARTMENT E — POULTRY 

 Commissioner in Clianje, Charles A. \Yieting, Cobleskill. 

 Superintendent, \V. Iv Gilbert, Syracuse. 



As will he noticed by tlie prize money distributed, the poultry department 

 is increasing every year. Some years ago this building was filled by poultiv 

 from a few single exhibitors. This year there was a very large increase of 

 exliibits from individuals making a specialty of one kind. The competition 

 was extremely strong and a ribbon won at the Xew York State Fair is now 

 {•rized far above the money. The artificial pond in the center of the poultry 

 iiouse, filled with 200 specimens of wild fowl, attracted great attention and 

 was commended by all. The new poultry hou>!e should be so erected that 

 t'licre will be room for jioultry, pet stock and dogs; also, a room for the 

 killing, picking and packing of poultry, thus showing the farmer how to 

 prepare this important product for markets giving the highest possible price. 

 In addition, it should include a lecture room with a seating capacity for at 

 leaot 1,OCO people, in order that the educational value of such a display 

 may not be lost.
