WHITBY POULTRY SHOW. 



"We published last week the awards made to the poultry and Pigeons 

 at the "Whitby Agricultural Society's thirty-sixth annual Show. The 

 weather being extremely fine and the visitors very numerous, the 

 receipts at the gates were much greater than at any former Show. The 

 arrangements were everything that could be desired. The Dorkings 

 did not form a large class ; the prize chickens were very good. Many 

 of the Spanish were in deep moult ; the first-prize chickens, however, 

 were good. In the class for Red Game, Mr. Julian was first with a 

 very good pen of Black Reds; and Mr. Robson, of Bishop Auckland, 

 second with an excellent pair of Brown Reds. The two pens of 

 Duckwings belonging to the same gentleman were also first-rate. Of 



Brahmas there was a large entry, but many of them were much out of 

 condition. Some of the chickens were of great merit. The French 

 fowls were tolerably numerous, and the two prize pens of great merit. 

 Most of the Hamburgh classes contained some good birds, but the 

 entries were not so numerous as we should have wished. The Ducks 

 and Geese were well represented ; and all the classes of Pigeons con- 

 tained many first-class specimens. 



The local cups for the best pen of chickens, of the large breeds, was 

 awarded to Mr. Readman, for Cochins ; that for Game orHamburghs, 

 to Mr. "Webster ; and for Ducks, to Mr. Burn, for a good pen of Black 

 East Indian. 



PENISTONE POULTRY SHOW. 



The seventeenth annual Show of poultry took place at Penistone 

 on Thursday last, upon the admirably adapted grounds belonging to 

 Mr. Unwin There may have been years when the number of entries 

 have been larger, but the different classes have never been better 

 represented. The poultry included some of the finest birds in the 

 kingdom. The prize for Dorkings was carried off by a very fine pen. 

 Spanish were well represented. The Poland's shown were remarkable 

 for their excellent quality. Of Hamhurghs there was a large display, 

 and finer birds could not be found. The Game classes caused some 

 excitement, the several kinds Bhown being admirable. The competi- 

 tion between Mr. C. Chaloner and Mr. F. Sales wa3 exceedingly 

 keen. The Cocldn-CJiinas were poorly represented, owing to most of 

 thi3 class of birds being out of feather. However, Mr. Harvey showed 

 one excellent pen.

WOODSOME POULTRY SHOW. 



The Woodsome Society's fifteenth Show was held on the 17th inst. 

 The arrangements were good, the hirds well attended to, and the ex- 

 hibitors treated with the utmost courtesy. 



Dorkings are neglected in this part, and there were no entries, and 

 of Spanish and Cochins there were very few specimens. Game were 

 adult birds, aud not in the finest bloom, though good in hand. Of 

 Brahmas there were some good specimens, the first-prize pen being in 

 excellent order. The second-prize birds were better in marking, but 

 out of feather. The Hamhurghs were all good. In tbe Game Bantam 

 clas3 the competition was very close; the awards were made to Black 

 Reds. Iu the class for any other variety of Bantams, Blacks were 

 first, and Japanese second. The Eonen Duels were large, and the 

 winners correct in points, though some of the rest were bad in beak.
