EDI^TBUEGH POULTRY SHOW. 



■This was held on the 6th, 7th, and Sth inst. It should be considered 

 whether more light conld not be admitted to that portion of the build- 

 ing wherft the poultry is exhibited, so that the birds in the centre pens 

 may be better seen by spectators. The pens were most injndicionsly 

 placed in tiers of three, the lowest being nearly on the ground : the 

 birds in them could be seen with difficulty. The pens were also too

HYDE POULTRY SHOW. 



CoNSiDERWiG that none of the acting Committee had previously 

 been engaged in the management of a poultry show, the general ar- 

 rangements of the Hyde Show were very creditable. Messrs. Turner's 

 pens were engaged for the occasion, and so far as the Concert Koom is 

 suited for the purpose, the position of the pens could not have been 

 improved. 



Strange to say, Dorlcings were a very limited entry, though the 

 prize birds were very good, and yet more singular, only a solitary 

 entry was made in the class for Cochins. Mr. Ansdell took both 

 prizes for B raJi mas Vfiih his well-known Dark birds, but there were 

 many excellent pens of this breed shown, even in the Selling classes. 

 A few good Game fowls were exhibited, but the cream of the Show were 

 the HamJjurghs. In Black Hamburghs it is very questionable if such 

 good pens were ever seen side by side at any show. The Spangled, 

 also, of both colours were quite equal to the reputation of the breeders 

 of Hamburghs in this district ; the "spangling" of the majority of 

 those shown was such as once seen could never be forgotten. Mr. 

 Peter TJnsworth contributed much to the general attractions of this 

 first Show, by the entry of several pens of very excellent Folands. 

 The Duels were particularly good, and the winning Geese and Turkeys 

 were pens from the noted yard of Mr. Leech, of Rochdale. 



The music gallery formed a very good position for the display of a 

 large and excellent collection of Pigeons, but a side light from each 

 direction rendered somewhat obscure this division of the Show. Few 

 of the visitors anticipated seeing so perfect a collection of Pigeons, 

 supported by many of the most distinguished breeders in the kingdom. 

 No committee could devote more willing and earnest attention to the 

 well-doing of the birds under their care, and no doubt annual and 

 successful meetings will be the result.
