THe Dairy EXAMINER,

OCTOBER 3, 1875.

PROVINCIAL EXHIBITION.

A MAGNIFICENT DISPLAY.

Exrrcrarion was fully realized by the Exhibition which opened at Summerside on Wednesday. The arrangements were good ; thousands were present ; plenty was pro- vided for their refreshment ; and the num- ber, variety and excellence of the animals and articles were in advance of those ex- hibited in previous years.

THE CATTLE SHOW

But in horned

was exceptionally fine. cattle there was a more decided improve- ment than in any other department. The short-horn bulls shown by Messrs. Alex. Bluc, of West River, A. M. Wright, of sedeque, and Richard Bagnall, of Hazel Grove, were, we think, the best animals of their class ever exhibited on an Island show ground ; and, altogether, it was evident that our farmers are making rapid strides in the improvement of their herds. Of the horses, the beautiful blood stallions of Dr. Newton Lee were gen- Two

colts,

Jenkins and Mr. erally the observed of all observers. very pretty thoroughbred blocd owned by Messrs. Norman McLeod and Wallace Rodd, also attracted much atten- tion. And the splendid cart stallions of Messrs. Glover and Clow trod the grounds with the proud air of monarchs of the field. Dr. Jenkins’ span of stallions could hardly, we think, be excelled anywhere ; aud, on the whole, the show of horses was a very fine one. Of the sheep and pigs there were not so many specimens as could be de- sired ; but those shown exhibited careful breeding. We noticed that Mr. Albert Boswell, of Lot 49, obtained a large propor- tion of prizes for sheep ; andif he continues to improve his stock, Messrs. Longworth and Wright will have to look to their laurels. Now that we have mills at which good tweeds are manufactured, we hope that at- tention will be turned to sheep farming with a view of obtaining the finer qualities of wool. There is no reason why we should not make at least as great a production of the cloth we use, as of the flour we con- sume. As usual, Hon. J. C. Pope and H. Longworth, Esq. were among the leading exhibitors. Many of the finest animals shown belong to Queen’s County; and it does seem strange that the stallions belong- ing to the Government Stock Farm were not on the grounds so that the farmers could have an opportunity of seeing and comparing them with those of private indi- duals. The Cattle Show was held in a roomy field on the Green Estate—in every way a suitable place.

THE EXHIBITION

was held in the Drill Shed—which was too small by more than half. Considerable in- genuity was displayed in the storage of the various articles; hut, after all, many of them were passed by unseen. Notso,however, with the home-made wares of Mill Valley and Tryon Cloth Mills. These specimens were among the first, as well as the most pleasing, thing that met the eye. The tweeds shown were just as good as the best ‘*Canadian Tweeds ;’ and they should be purchased at wholesale, by our merchants, and at retail, by everyone. They are the produce of P. E. Island wool only, and are just as cheap or even cheaper than those manufactured elsewhere. Mr. McSween’s prize clothing were made of the cloth of Mill Valley Mills; and Mr. McKenzie ex- hibited a suit good enough to have been made of Island cloth. The other exhibits of textile fabrics were highly creditable to the ladies. Some quilts made by Mrs. John Currie of this city were marvels of ingenu- ity. Mr. Hobbs, of this city, displayed a collection of very fine hats of the latest styles; and Mr. Fanning, of Summerside, had it all his own way in the important item of boots and shoes. The oil paintings were not such ambitious attempts as those of previous years; but they were infinitely more pleasing. Mr. Ackerman’s water colors drawing of the flowers of the Do- minion were excellent. The real flowers were good, though we should have liked bet- ter to have seen thein in greater variety and profusion. Messrs. Graves and Brennan displayed some very fine specimens of printing and bookbinding; while Mrs. Mugford was present, showing some highly creditable varieties of photography. The great boast of the Exhibition was, however, its roots and vegetables and its fruit. These were remarkably fine. Edward Bayfield, Esq., exhibited a magnificent

group of vegetables, containing no less than | pe

seventy-two distinct varieties ; while many other splendid specimens were shown by Mr. Charles Ives and others. The apples

displayed by Abram Gill, Esq., of Little|

York, and Judge Peters would have re- flected great credit upon Orchards in any part of America, We never saw finer

in the famed Annapolis Valley. The gar- den of Hon. D. Davies, too, was well re- presented by some very superior varieties of fruit. We regret that we have but space so-day for a very brief and imperfect commentary on this splendid Exhibition. Before adding the Prize List we cannot, however, help mentioning specially the en- terprise of the Summerside Reform Club and the Methodist Church of the town, in providing good substantial refreshments to the crowds of hungry sight-seers who thronged the grounds :— PRIZE LIST.
