Division C. It is to be regretted that the entries in the Cattle 
section were not more numerous. Practically all that did come were 
from Perak and Malacca. The prize for the champion animal went to 
Mr. Brett Brussi, Perak. 
There were no entries in Buffaloes and Pigs. 
Poultry. The entries in the poultry section were much larger than 
in previous Shows with the result that there was a shortage of pens 
for housing. As a result arrangements in this section were bad. At 
the time the entries closed officially, the number of pens was full, and 
in addition some fifty entries were accepted on the Show ground, 
people bringing their birds along, some from a distance, it was not 
thought advisable to discourage them by not allowing them to complete. 
This fact accounts for the confusion in this section. 
Agricultural Implements. Entries in this division were poor. 
The Federated Engineering Company, Kuala Lumpor, took first prize 
for rubber tapping tools, also for Agricultural Implements European 
made. 
Two exhibits were shewn of coagulating machinery the one being 
a circular iron tank with a hand propelled paddle and the other a 
similar mechanism arranged so that it could be attached to the ordinary 
form of Shanghai bath which has a smooth glazed interior. Both these 
machines did their work effectively and were awarded a silver and 
bronze medal respectively. 
Horse Section. In all 78 horses and 16 gharry ponies were entered. 
The champion prizes were won by Messrs. Yap Brothers for black mare 
over 15 hands, and for horse under 15 hands hy Mr. C. E. Spooner, 
C. M. G. with Catucha, 
Prize Winners. Amongst prize winners Penang and Province 
Wellesley were the most successful. The percentage of prizes to entries 
being very high indeed. 
Next on the list come Malacca, Lower Perak, Kuala Kangsar and 
Krian. The later districts prizes chiefly for padi. The State of Negri 
Sembilan sent a large number of entries. Selangor with the exception 
of Kuala Langat District was poorly represented considering the fact 
that the Show was held in the State. 
A great deal of the success of the Shows as far as entries go de- 
pends on the interest the District Officers take in the matter and with- 
out their co-operation results would be poor indeed. 
General , Although entries officially closed on 3rd August “the 
majority were received on the last two days (2nd and 3rd)” and a 
large number came in late. 
This caused a tremendous rush of work on the week before the 
Show. The entries up to Wednesday 5th August numbered 5994 ; in 
addition to this some 2000 entries were accepted after this date most of 
them being taken on the ground. 
Articles for sale were not so readily disposed of as in previous 
years. This is probably due to the scarcity of money. The sellers can 
scarcely agree with press comments as to Museum people snapping up
