There is a very fine show of poultry, but the arrangement of the exhibits is most perplexing, entries for tho same class being in many instances separated and mixed up so as to puzzle tho most knowing ones. Tho principal prizes havo been won by S. Morrin, who has n very large number of capital exhibits. The competition is good, most classes having three or more entries, so that tho majority of tho prizes are, in this respect, valuublo.

DOGS.

Judges: Messrs J. Henderson, F. Kyre, and W. J. Hunter. Stem ard: Mr John Bull. The show of dogs will bear no comparison with that of last year. It is inferior both in point of number and in quality. Very few greyhounds and cattle dogs are shown, while not one English or Irish getter is to be seen. The sheep-dog class is the most largely representee], and next (o it comes that of the terriers. Mr Waymouth's Jumbo nnd Nell will cngago attention among the fox terriers, while tho bull and skye terriers form ono of the redeeming features of tho display. Thero aro also somo vei'y fine sheep dogs, and one or two handsome greyhounds.

Stewards: C. Atkin, J. Phillipos, A. Dun woodie F. _>hoi t, J. W. Wallace. '

In previous exhibitions of late years, agricultural implements were the feature of tho Show, and our large importers sent thousands of pounds worth of machinery to the show ground. One year the transit of implements to tho ground cost a Queen street firm £200. Tho trouble and expense of moving so many heavy implements have prevented hitherto large exhibitors from exhibiting largely, and Messrs T. and S. Morrin and Co. and E. Porter and Co. are lepresented somewhat meagrely. The largest exhibitors are Messrs Beid and Gray; of Dunedin, and Messrs Wallace and Hot ham, of Ot.huhu. Messrs Beid and Gray's exhibits aro well chosen and capitally illustrate the manufacture of that enterprising firm. There are ploughs modelled after the implement with which the firm took the gold medal at the Melbourne Exhibition, against manufactures from all parts of tho world, horse rakes, reapers, and mowers, etc. In disc harrows an important improvement has been intro duced in the matter of a centre screw stay, enabling effective angle work to be done, and rendering the machine more workable on uneven ground. In some of the ploughs a new steering arrangement has been in troduced which is well worth the inspection of farmers. _ Some of the most important oS Messrs Beid and Gray's exhibits came up in the s.s. Omapere, and were on the Show grounds this morning. Amongst these articles is a broad • cast seel sower with force feeder, a combination said to be novel and effective. Messrs Wallace and Huthum's strong point is their ploughs. They have always obtained an honourable position in the shows for these implements, and fresh' improvements are noticeable yearly. This year they are better finished than they have ever btea before, the emery wheel having been used with good effect on handles and othtr portions. One novelty is a double-furrow plough, convertible in a few minutes into a combined single fuhw and"evtlfwi. iler," A

fault garden plough, *elg_d«g"otily llolbi*, is somewhat of a novelty. It is very shoit, and can be effectively used by orchardlits for ploughing amongst fruit trees. An invention "bf tho firm, a combined bone nnd grass seed distributor, attracts a good deal of attention. It was only introduced last year, and is rapidly making its way in public favour. In this collection is the first disc harrow made in the Provincial District of Auckland—a well balanced machine with short pole. A double speed reaper and mower ttat can be used for clearing scrub and ti-tree is an excellent implement. Messrs Dunwoodie Brothers have paient tide • cutting, scrub - cutting, and stump - jumping harrows, also a set of twin hay foiks with mast and derrick. Messrs T. and S. Morrin show imported reapers and binders, also mowers, and Messrs E. Porter and Co. American harvesters, binders, etc. Messrs Wingate, Burns, and Co.'s small but excellent collection of American imple ments attracts a good deal of attention. Messrs Andrews |nnd Bcavan show chaff, cutters of improved design, and Messrs B. Tonka anil Co. exhibit some new American waggons, Ithaca rakes, grain drill, etc. Mr S. Morrisson, of Papatoitoi, .exhibits a double furrow plough—his only exhibit.

Carriages, &c,

Messrs Cousins and At kin have an excel lent collection of buggies, waggons, &c., of their own manufacture. The total value of thoir exhibits is £2,000. The collection in clude., amongst otliciv, two landaus, six buggies, an ambulance, farm waggon, omni bus, nnd a Coriland waggon in the prey. This latter is constructed entirely of New Zealand woods, and for workmanship and strength will compare with anything im ported. Messrs Cousins and Atkin find that pohutukawa and puriri arc inoro suit able for hubs than any American or Aus tralian timber. Mangaio is found to be superior to ash, and while ti-trce will last longer in this climate than the best Ameri can hickory. White kowhai and maire for whippletrees and singletrees have no equal.

The Bey. VV. E.
