Agricultural Show at Llanfyuydd.
Agricultural Show at Llanfyuydd. The Pantglas Hunt and Llanfynydd Agricul- tural Show was held on Thursday the 1st inst., all the Penycoed fields, clcso to Pant- glas mansion. This year's arrangements were in many respects a great change as com paired "with former years. One of the changes was that the prize list had been, considerably altered, so as to do away with a good ma.)1T classes for which it had been found by experi- once that there was vel)' little demand. The date had been fixed considerably earlier than usual in the expeetation that the show would conie after the close of the, hay harvest. Un- fortunately, owing to the peculiar metero- logical arrangements of this year, the first of August happened to be a particularly busy day for hay making, and as a result the attondalllce was not so large as it might otherwise have been. b ° There was a very good lot of cattle in the open shorthorn, classes. In the class for the <<rf- any age," Mrs Spence Jones's Dmga-a.il/' was placed first; but Mirs Spence Jones withdrew the entry afterwards, as this animal had also H on the first prize in the local class, and there is, we. believe, a rule that no animal shall win more than one first prize. All the prizes won by Mrs Speaiicie- Jones were given by her to the second prize wi-nner, and the second prize winner yielded his to the third, so that it was a question of "place" and not money. "Dingaan" is a well known shortholrn, bred bv Mr Da vies, of Broad Oak, and a winner at the United Counties Show at Carmarthen. "Columbine Seal," the property of Mr Davies, Castle Howell, was a veiy good second. A very promising young shorthorn was "County Beauty," which is the properyt of the Misses Mansel, and which Avon the prize in the two- ye air-old class. There ii-ias a fine lot of cows in the local class, both of black and coloured. It was, of course, in the horse department that there was the most competition. Tire "underground" classes in both sections con- tained a large number of good useful animals 11 In Broad mams were very satisfactory, and there was all round a very fine lot of young horses. The prize list contains many names which have been heard before several times, and which will without doubt be seen in future prize lists. One of the finest features of the show was the series of prizes offered by Major Spence Jones, M.F.H., to all farmers within the boundaries of the Pantglas Hunt. The prizes were of a very generous character, being at the rate of L4 for a first, 4:2 for a second, and JE1 for a third which is second only to the famous three conn ties show ait Carmar- then. Such handsome premiums naturally brought out some really high class exhibits in horses, cattle, and sheep, for the schedule had been so arranged that there was some- thing for all classes of farmers. During the day a capital selection of music was rendered by the band of the 1st V.B. Welsh Regimenit v (by kind permission of Lieut. Co I. T. G. Williams, V.D., and the other officers of the Llandilo Detachment). The band is a particularly fine one, compris- ing reed and brass instruments, and the re- malrkaibly high state of efficiency to which they have been brought reflects the greatest credit 011 the bandmaster.

Luncheon was provided for the judges and others in a tent on the field in the afternoon. The chair was occupied by Major Spence- Jones, M.F.H. After the usual loyal toams had been pro- posed and duly honoured, The Chairman proposed tre health of the judges. In doing so he said that some of the gentlemen had come a considerable distance, I and the Society was deeply indebted to them for the trouble they had taken. The classes that day were rather small, because it had been such a fine day for the harvest; but the judges deserved their gratitude for the way in which they had done the.iir work. Mr Rees, Glainyrafonddu, said he was veay pleased with it so far as he had seen. It was very good for a loTal show. Mr Tiicehurst said that there had been very little wOlrk for him to do. His colleague (Mr Ben Evans) had judged the sheep, and he had judged the pigs, of Avhich there Ave re Very few. Mr Ben EAians said that it had given him great pleasure to come there to act as judge. He was a believe.1- in Jocal silioll-s they Avere one of the best means to make people take an interest in agriculture. It gave a. great pleasure to all artist to transfer ideas to canvass; and it was a great pleasure to a, man who had ail idea in live stock to transfer his ideas into flesh and blood. Something is wanted in the coullti-y to make people take an interest iiii tliielll- ckinli profession on* trade; that would do the coumtry more good than a great many thingis that are talked about. He was gllad that the show was supported so well; of course, they eould not expect a good attendance as the hay harvest kept the people iaway. They could not manage the Aveather, iaiid that was one of the dnaAvbacks Avhich the farmer had to put up with. Never- theless there Avas a good exhibit of stock on the field. He thought that great praise was -due to Capt. Spence,-Jones, Mr Delme Davies Evans, and the others who had promoted this show. He believed all local .shows. Of course it was very good to have a few open to show people Avhat could be done but it was the local classes which brought out new competitors, and once people began to compete they Avould try to nnpiwe the breed of their stock. He hoped that this show would continue and Avould be more successful in the future even than in the past. .l\[,. J. Griffiths, Lydstep. said that greaft credit was due to Major Spente Jones as a master of foxhounds. He was told that .Major Spence Jones Wla;<;l the backbone of the ghow. It ii-cail-d be a good th ing if eveiy 'M.F.H. would, do the Killi-t! thing; that he w as doing. It would bring about a better feeling toAvards the foxhounds Avhen they came across country, and there Avould not be so much barbed wire a,blo,ut (applause). Mr Ben Evans proposed the health of Mrs Delme Davies-Evans, the president. It Avas a good thing to have a lady president. Mrs Delme DaAries-Bvans was a lady who tcok an interest in agiiiculture and in all good Avoiks in the neighbourhood it would be a grand day for agriculture if all the ladies followed in Mrs Davies-Evans' .footsteps, and helped the agricultural interest and in fact every- thing for the benefit of th:e country. He had the. greatest pleasure in, proposing her health. Mr Delme Davies-EA'ans respnded on be- half of his wife. who was absent. He said that it gave her the greatest possible pleasure to be president of the show. This was the ninth show Avhich the Society had held. Since Captain Speuce Jones had come into the district he had coime to the rescue and had helped them, so that the Society might now be said to be in a very flourishing condi- tion. They had had two lady presidents, Mrs Speniee Jones having foiinerly beeai president. Both ladies took the greatest interest in agriculture, and both did all in their power to help forward this show. He did not think the show would ever be likely to fail for want of funds from Pantglas. Mr Rees, GLanyrafonddu, proposed tire health of Major Spence Jones, which was received Avith musical honours. Major Spence Jones, in responding, said that they ha.d been, rather badly treated by the fates in having such a fine day. At the same time, they must not complain as it would help the fanners to get their hay in. Previous shows had been started by his cousin Air Delmc Davies-Evans. Several references had beeai made to the hounds and to sport. He did not know Avhether it amused many people; ibnlt it certainly amused him very much. At the same time, he owed a great deal of thanks for the kindness shown him when huditing in this country. A few years ago hounds were not known in this district; everything was started from the bedrock. At the present time he could say the general feciling was very good; he was deeply in- debted to the farmers for presenting foxes and for allowiing him to hunt over their land. He took a great interest in farming; he farmed some of the land Avhich his mother kept in her own hands, and he could sym- pathise with the farmers in their good times and bad times. LIST OF AWARDS.

The Alltymynydd Saaatorinm.|
The Alltymynydd Saaatorinm. | SCHEME FOR MAINTENANCE. A meeting of the executive of the West "Tales branch of the National Society for the Prevention of Consumption was held at the Carmarthen Guildhall on Friday afternoon., Mr E. Trubshaw, of Llarielly, presiding. Dr Douglas Reid, of Tenby, in referring to the main object of the 'meeting—the considera- tion of the steps Avhich should be taken towards the maintenance of the sanatorium | at Alltymynydd, ineair Idanybyther—sugges- ted that, in order to inaiintaiii the 20 beds there, the counties of Carmarthen, Cardi- gan, and Pembrke, should ue divided into 20 districts, each of Avhich should be responsible for a bed. He presented two altera at h'eis, that there should be eight or ten, districts in Carma.rthenshiire, six or five in Cardigan- shire, and six or five iuu Pembrokeshire. The yields of the counties in the above order, if each person gave a penny a year, would be t67 10s, or £51 10s per annum, with a popu- lation of 130,000, £ 43 or £tj2 with a popula- tion of 62,000, and zC62 10s or t75 with a population of 90,000. If possllble, patients slhouild pay a small weekly sum. In the event of fewer districts for each county, a few beds could be kept for the paying patients. A district which did not collect the sum irequied should not have the nomina- tion to <a bed. Affer a desultory discussion, the executive decided to issue circulars to all likely subscribes in the West Wales counties.
Indian Liver Troubles.
Indian Liver Troubles. RIGHT FOOD WORKS WONDERS. Many an Englishman after a long stay in India returns home apparently a chronic in- valid. But careful feeding Avorks a change that is Avorth writing about. "In uny youth I passed many years in India," Avritos a Coventry man, "and re- turned home very much shattered iai health, a martyr to liven" and indigestion. "I was induced some time ago to give your Grape-Nuts food a trial, and have continiued to use it for the past two years. My plan is to take Grape-Nuts regularly &t breakfast and again in the evening, four heaping teaspoonfiris seated for a few niiinfutes in rich new milk. I am glad to say I have lost myoid distressing symptoms and sleep well, and enjoy very sound health now, Avhicli I attribcte to the regular use of your Grape- Nuts food." Name given bv Grape-Nuts Co., 66, Shoe Lane, E.C. There is no secret process employed in the manufacture of Grape-Nuts, and the hene.fi- cial effect it IIJupon health can always be clearly explained. Grape-Nuts is simply a highly nutritious food, made only of best wheat and barley with just a pinch of salt. The starch of the grains is changed by skilful mechanical process-es into Grape-sugar. In other Avords it is partially pre-digested, and being easily assimilated by the body, it has cured thousands of cases of indigestion and liv-er trouble. You'll find some exelleiit advice on how to get Avell in tlie "Road to Wellviile," a litttle pocket booklet in each, packet of Grape-Nuts. If you are ill, remember— There's a reason. WAKNIXG.—Imitations of Grape-Nets are on the market, payiaig the retail grocer a special profit to push the sale. If you ireally want a skilfully and scientific- ally made brain food, insist upon getting Grape-Nuts. Most grocers will promptly supply genuine articles without attempt to palm off something "just as good." If your grocer tries to substitute some imitation "Nuts" for genuine Grape-Nuts, perhaps the otlior gi-ocer doAv.ii the street might serve you more faithfully. If you finiCl Grape-Nuts food- a bit soft from the late damp Aveather, put it in an ov c-ii with the door left open and dry until crisp. Then add a spninKle of sugar and some milk enriched with cream and there you are, the fino6t reakfast food extant.

Experience Better than Argument.I
Experience Better than Argument. The world-wide1 fame of Mother Seigel's Syrup ik ba-sed on the evidence of men and Avomen Avhem it has cured of indigestion, biliousness, constipation, headaches, sleep- leosn-essi, flatulence, nervoiis depression, aimeniia, and other disorders of the stomach, liver and kidneys. Compounded of roots and herfbs. Mother Seigel's Syrup contains diges- tive ferments and gentle tonics for the stomach, liveli and kidneys. These elements render -it invaluable to all who, through un- healthy surroundings, sedentary occupation, worry. ovonvork, or clim.atic changes, lack the vitality AAihieh only good food, well digested, can supply. When yon are tortured with indigestion, so that you can't eat, can't work, can't thinik, .can't sleep, you should at once give Mother Seigel's Syrup a trial. Tens of thousands of people testify that Mother Seigel's Svrup cures indigestion, because it has cured them. Profit by their cxperilence f HERE IS THE EXPERIENCE Mr W. G. P. Bruce, of 18, Alma Terrace, Bawdsey-on-Sea, Woodbridge, Suffok, AAiote on January 1st. 1907, saying:—"Many times your great medicine, Mother Seigel's Syrup, has freed me from suffering and restored me to health and vigour I have endured all the usual torture.s of indigestion, with many more, of Avhich few, T hope, have any experi- ence. Pai/n at my stomach, and in my hack. Avind, headache, and vomitting of a n a sty sour fluid, were quite common Avhile the indi- gestion fit, lasted. I have not had a seizure for about four years now, because I always take Mother Seigel's Syrup AvheneA'er I fell the least sign of indigestion, and it never fails to drive it off." Mother Seigel's Syrup has been for nearly 40 years the most effectiA-e remedy known for all stomach disorders. The 2s 6d Bottle contains Throe Times as much as the Is IJd Size.
) Llandilo Agricultural Show.
Llandilo Agricultural Show. ( GRAND AGRICULTURAL SHOW Llandilo Agricultural Show—by far tiv.' oldest established in the county—has seen many ups and downs. During more than liaif a centuiy of its ex stence, it has had various vicissitudes, 'and this year has seen another change in that it has. made a very considerable alteration, in its place of exhibi- tion. From the Ciloeimen, field to the new Auction at Llandilo Bridge is a far cry. and the change is also significant of a certain cleavage which exists in Tilaiidilo in regard to many things of the kind. It is to be sincerely hoped for the sake of the ,agri- cultural society itself that any divisions which have hitherto existed in the matter i Avill soon he. healed. It must be admitted that the show held at the Auction Mart was a great success, and a decided improvement on many which had been, held in recent years both in the "gate" and in the entries. Whether this was due to the change of Arenue or in spite of it AAC cannot cf course say. Tho alteration of the date is, of course, a very considerable factor, and the fine day Avihioii the Society was fortunate enough to secure, had no doubt something to do with the happy result. As usual, the black cattle formed a strong* feature of Llainddo show. There Avere over forty entries in this department alone, and they may be said to form the very cream of the black cattle of Carmarthenshire. In the aged bull class, the first place was taken by "Duke of Connaught," the WPIll kiliown ani- mal cwined by Davies, Howells, and Tliomas, Mydrim. We have so often re- ferred to this animal's record on previous occasions that there is no need to refer to it here; it is sufficient to stay that it ha. for maliv years AVOIU prizes at shoAvs of first im- portance. A very good second was" A p Sadwrn," a three-year-old, exhibited by Mr H. W. Williams, of Bankylan, and one of the progeny of the Celebrated Hafod (Llanboidy) herd. In the yearling class, the judge found two so evenly matched that he had to divide the prize between them. One of these was "Duke, Avhich was sired by "Duke of Con- naught." The cows were a very fine lot, comprising ten first rate useful animals, amongst which there was a considerable amount of difficulty in placing the Avinners. The bull calves were one of the finest classes in this section. The first prize Avent to "Duke of Wellington," a ten month old calf sired by "Duke of Connaught." A very good second was made by "Dia.mond Dnkp." another of Duke of Connaught's progeny, exhibited bv D, a vies, Howells, and Thomas. The prize for the best black in the yard was awarded to "Duke of Connaught. with "Duke of Wellington" as reserve. The eiiiitries of coloured cattle Avere as usual the more iinumerous, there being 2G entries in the open class and about the same number in the tenant farmer's class. As manv of these entries, however, wiere duplicates, the diffei-en.ee was not so great as Avoukl first api>ear. In the aged bull class, the first prize Avent to Mr T. E. Davies, of Casrtle Howell, for his "Columbine Seal," a fine type of shorthorn, ibred bv -ALi- H. Ker Colville", Mr J. Lloyd Mongan's "Duke of Tvne" placed second. There was an especially fine lot of cows, the prizes being all taken by Mr T. Griffiths, of Gellv, Llandefeilog. Tlie prize prize for the best shorthorn, in the yard was won by "Duke of Clarence," a-n. eight months old calf shoAvn by Mi' J. Lloyd Morgan, RhiAv- feli/n, alnd the offspring of the famous "Duke of Tyne." There was good all-round quality amongst tho .shorthorns, so that all the classes Avere very difficult to judge. The show of horses was hardly second to a'ny in Wales. For many years Llandilo has enjoyed a high reputation for the quality of the hackneys shown there, and on this occa- sion the reputation Avas Avell matimitained. There was a. capital lot of brood mares, and of three year olds. The fin-e hunter classes were well filled, not the least satisfactory class 'being the foats of "Curable," Mr Delme Davies-Evanis's thoroughbred. Of the cartere it would be impossible to speak too li-ighly there Avas a magnificent class of brood mares which- was almost equalled by the teams. This distinct more than any other shows marked eviidence of the improvement Avhich has taken place in the quality of agricultural horses during the last ft, yeairs. The ponies Avere a better lot that have been seen for some time, and there is considerable CAndenee that the efforts which have bwn made to raise the status of the .mountain breeed are meeting with considerable success. The exhibits of sheep were not numerous, and the prizes were all Avon by Mr J. Thomas, of Penraiit, who seems to iviii e veryAvhere. The Judges Avere: Black cattle and pigs, Mr W. R. Harrnes, Lian.rithan, Matlny, Letterstone Colonned cattle and sheep, Mr Wail. Tenipleton, Bliackweir Farm, Cardiff; Hun tors, hackneys, and }>onie- Mr John R. Baelie, Knighton; Cart horses, -Ili- William Emerson, Sweldon Farm, Cardiff: The stewards .wore Black cattle and pigs, Mr Harries, Diyslu ynfau r; Mr Griffiths, Rlio.-fawr; Coloured cattle and sheep, Mr Jones., Crachty; Mr Scurlock, La ill ash Hun- ters, hackneys, and pomes, Mr Perkins, Closglas; -Mr Morgans, Coedmawr; Cart horses, -Mr Davies, Cilrhedyn, and Mr Rees, LAwv n fortune. Major Spence Jones, -M.F.H., acts as the president, and the vice-presidents are Mr-. Evans, -Hiighmead; Mr J. Lewes Tliomas, Caeglas; Mr W. Simom, Pencoed; Mr Lpwis Boweii, Edwinsfoixl. The secirtar.al duties are ably discharged by Mr G. Will:ia-iiis and Mr Dehne Davies- Evans. A luncheon was held in a tent on the field in the -afternoon. 1 he chaur was occupied by the President, Major Spence Jones. After the usual loyal toasts had been pro- posed a-nd duily honoured, The Chairman, proposed the toast of the Judges. Everyone AVIIO had anything to do with agricultural shows was always grateful to the judges for the trouble they took. It was not a very pleasant job at the best of times; and Avhen they had judges such as they had -.ad that day Ailio took great trouble and gave every satisfaction, it was a it the more, reason why their healths should proposed. Mr J. R. Rae-he said that there was a lot of good animals there; but he was not surprised at that whetiii he knew that Mr Evan Jones lived amongst them. Mr Jones bred good aaiiimals, and that encouraged Iris neighbours to do the same. He (Mr Baelie) had been a judge at Abeiysitwith the other day, and he could say that some of lie clas es lie had i seen at Llandilo were better even than those at the W eisli NationaJ shL They had some wonderful classes considering it was a local how. He thought that tihei o was gn-eat credit due to thnse who had bred horses and encouraged th? breeding of horses, in that neighbourhood. He hoped all tliose intere ted in cobs would join the Welsh Pony and Cob Society, so as to encourage them i,a their good work and would have their atdmals iegistered. The time was coming when only regis teed animals would be thought Avorth much. The Hon W K. ILcc projxised the health of the President. It Avas not hng slice Major Spence Jnes had come into the county but in less than a fortnight's time they dis- covered that they had got a very good man. Ma-jor Spence Jones took a great interest in agriculture he had taken up the Llanfynydd show he was a dashing yeomanry officer— one of the liest. He had done a thing Avhich very few peopL had done here he had started a pack of hounds. He was not an easy man to follow as the speaker knew by experience. The description "A rum 'Hln to follow and a bad one to beat" applied to him very Avell. The President said that iit was with very great diffidenw he got up to respond to the toast, aftei- the very fulsome way in which it was proposed. He only hoped that some cf the things which Mr Rice said Avere true but that was too much, to expect. There had been a certain amount of opposition to the change in the locality of the ..hew. Even those who were oppsed to it could net but admit that it had been a great success in every way. Mr J. Powell (Cai regceninen) proposed the tüa "t of the vice-presidents and the stewards. Mr J. L. Thomas-. Caeglas, in responding, said that this was the first time the society bad had a lady as vice-president, Mrs Evans, of Highmead, being one this year. Mr Simon, Penycoed, another of the vice- presidents, also responded. He said that he wa.s very glad that the pntident Avas so successful as a master of foxhounds; he (Mr Simon) when they passed was ready to take a horse out of the plough, put a saddle on it, and follow them. He hardly felt worthy to be one of the-it, vice-presidents, as he had lwve)" listened to any higher class than a pig. Next year, however, he hoped to go in for something higher. D. Davies, Llandebie, responded on behalf of the stewards. During the day. the Llandilo Town Band was in atte dance, and gave selections of music at intervals. LIST OF AWARDS. CATTLE.
