POULTRY AT THE NEW HAMPSHIRE STATE 
FAIR. 
The Poultry Show was a very light affair, and many of 
the birds were very poor specimens, so much so that the 
judges had hard work to do justice to the fowls or to them- 
selves. Below will be found a list of premiums just as was 
awarded by the judges.

Ohio State Board of Agriculture the poultry department 
was as much below the usual average, in point of number 
of entries and quality, as the Fair was in most other depart- 
ments much superior to recent shows. The number of coops 
was not large, and in quality the White and Partridge
