‘‘ Mother Attachment,”’ for hatching chickens by artificial 
heat, in active operation, and close by is that funny fowl 
called the ‘‘ What is it?’ a cross between a turkey and 
Guinea fowl, which came from Woonsocket, and is going 
the rounds of all the poultry shows. 
The stage is occupied with a large ‘‘ dove-cote”’ with coops 
of fancy pigeons, including some very beautiful specimens. 
There are entries in this exhibition from New York, Con- 
necticut, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts, in addition to 
the large number from our own State and city. 
The Rhode Island Incubator, hatching chickens to order 
by warm water, a little orphan asylum for motherless 
chickens, is one of the attractions, and the inventor, Dr. 
Goodale, of Pawtucket, is present to explain its mode of 
construction and operation. 
Besides the large collection of living specimens of the 
feathered tribe, there is a fine exhibition uf preserved birds 
and animals that makes an attractive and interesting addi- 
tion to the exhibition.
