Buns. There were four entries in this class, bat the judges considered that only one of the lot deserved a prize, an opinion that was shared by all the speo tators (the unfortunate exhibitors perhaps excepted). Mr. Meikle, who was prevented from bringing his stook down in sufficient time to enter them, was awarded an extra prize of 10a. for a handsome and well-bred animal. Mr. Barton's white bull, ISa. ; no second. Extra prize, Mr. Meikle'a red bull, 10s.
Coys. Mr. Jordan's, lit prize, 155.; Mr. Palmer's, 2nd prize, 7s. 6d. , There were some nice beasts amongst the lot entered. Mr. Jordan's cow, though rather small, was in prime condition, and tbis placed the money to her credit. A heifer exhibited by Mr. Sanderson was the be»t-bred one of the lot, and would in all probability [have carried off the first prize if the judges could have felt certain that she "was in calf. The same may be said of tbis class as the last ; there were better in the district than any on the ground, and I hope that next year the owners will, for the credit of the place, bring them to the show.
BIEP. Mr. Dodds, Ist prize, 15s. ; Mr. Taylor, 2nd prize, 7s. 6d. There was a much better display, at far as quality was concerned, than had been anticipated, and showed that, spite of the backward season, feed in sheltered spots could not be very scarce. A third beast, alio exhibited by Mr. Dodds, ran No. 2 very close.
