Columbui Poultry Show. Notes on the Poultry Show by one who was there. Owing to tne fact that the "Only System was about three hours late when we left Albion. (L. Hohl said so we could look around town before we left) we arrived in Columbui al most evening of the third day of the Poultry Show and asked a bystander to direct us to the show and from his ' Ob. the chicken show," and the smile that lit up his face we conclud ed it muBt be a small affair. But imagine our pleasure when we reached the large Easton building to find it literally alive with more than a thou sand crowing, domestic birds, as fine in quality and a much larger quantity than we ever beheld and conceded by the good Columbus people to be the largest and most successful show in the history of Platte county. O. H. Rhodes of Topeka, a poultry judge of national repute, was assist ed by David Larson of Wahoo, Neb , we are told one of Nebraska's leading poultry experts, was turning birds this way and that to deoide where should be placed the blue and red caids. We met W. H Swartsley who was judge of poultry at our late Boone county fair, and learned that Swarts ley & Son of Columbus had the larg est exhibit of any in the show having over one hundred birds, with P. J. McCaffrey second with fifty birds shown. A peculiar and a very attrac tive feature of the show and by far the most noisy, were a pair df Arf ican geese exhibited by H. O. Rodohorst, and abont the most novel and interest ing, especially to the children, was a monkey shown by John McAllister. We want to say that every bird shown was fine and many that re ceived no premiums were meritorius, bnt when all is aaid of this great show, Boone county it just as able to make as fine a showing of her pool try and have as fine poultry as the Platte county showing. Secrete' y Swartsley of Colnmbns has been very liberal in the offer which he makes us Boone county people, viz that if the poultry raisers of Boone county will organize and work up a show at Aloion, that next fall the Platte. coun ty association will unite with os and it seems to me there are many ad vantages along this line tons. (Many of onr people send away for birds and when they arrive are cot tatis factory because we can't see ocr birds, In a show the birds are be fore us, we can examine them oar salves and then can select or reject any inferior stock. Asain I know people in Boone county that are sell ing birds for $1.00 that at this show were selling at from to 00 to $10.00, and why not get where we belong. Albion Argus. f f TaV LM&K.
