Barred Plymoth-Rock cockerel, the
same bird which carried off the sweep

winning bird was almost perfect in the
material points, and scored higher than

much superior to the others. The Doc

petition with states that have been tak
ing prizes for so many years, is an hon
or that would make any one feel proud.

following to say of the awards:
