VALE OF CONWAY AGRICULTURAL SHOW. HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL DESPITE THE RAIN. ENTRIES INCREASED BY 120. COMPLETE L!ST OF AWARDS. This popular event which is looked upon in the j [Vale of Conway as the chief attraction of the year appears to influence the elements in an extra- ordinary manner. Although the weather had baen phenominally fine for weeks previously, the clouds began to gather on Wednesday from all points of the compass until a vapoury pall hung over the district, whioh boded ill for the following day. These conditions yre-vailed un- til about 1 p.m. on Thursday, when the clouds broke at first in a fine drizzio, which scon de- veloped into a heavy downpour, driving the spectators assembled in the ahow field into the .wetoomed shelter of the dog and poultry tents, (vhere nicct of the ladies remained for some time, and listlessly watched the steady fail of t the rain. In one sense, however, the e lex en t a wore merciful, for they did not take action un- til the people had passed through the gate in record numbers, thua ensuring the monetary suc- cess of the event. Thirty-eight years have elapsed since the late Mr Hugh Pierce and a devoid circle of agri- culturists and townsmen gathered together for the purpose of inaugurating a scheme for the advancement of the quality of stock in the dis- trict. Those gentlemen, many of whom memory alone remains, by self-abnegation and sacrifice, 'became the pioneers of the movement, which has resulted so advantageously, both to the ex- hibitors and the public generally. Although the institution has in the past sailed over somewhat troubled waters, the financial successes of the last few years have placed the show on a sound footing. THE OFFICERS. Mr Hugh Pieroe, who retired full of honour lifter 30 years' secretarial uuties, wad followed by Mr R. R. Owen, who, in turn, was auoceeded by Mr H. J. W. Watling, t-lio present indefati- gable and popular secretary, who has filled the onerous duties entrusted to him with marked success. Thanks to Mr Watling, there was the substantial increase of about 120 in the en- tries this year. The committee were exceedingly fortunate in securng- the help of Mr L. O. R. Ashley, of flas Cae r Groes, as president. Mr Ashley is plosely connected with the district, and natur- ally as a large land owner, takes interest in .6,gricu,.Itural pursuits. He also identifies him- flelf with sport, and is a popular member and Official of the oricket club. Mr John Roberts, of Cae Melwr, as a tenant farmer, made an ideal vice-president, as his knowledge of the Agricultural industry is second to none.

A large portion of the field—Gwydr Pack, kindly lent by the President of the Board of "Agriculture, was, of course, the venue as hitherto—running parallel with the road, was devoted to the exhibits of local tradesman. The ironmonegra had evidently inaugurated an ex- fcibition of their own, for they had an extra- ordinarily varied and extensive collection of machinery on view, which appeared the centre pf attraction to t<his farmers, wuo availed them- selves of the opportunity to inspect the latest jSesigns on the market. Messrs Hughes and Burrows exhibited a valu- able oolleotion of implements, too most intor- being Blackstanes 7 h.p. oil engine with (Oil tanks foundation. It's evident utility was .'immediately grasped, with the result that it found a ready purchaser. Petter's "Stationary" iHandv Man, 3i h.p. oil engine, was also exhi- bited "at work, and gave the impression that it t/was a serviceable implement for medium size farms. Bamford'9 patent chaff cutters, root cutters, oil cake mills, corn crushers; Powell 'Bros', and Whittaker's patent horse gieara, ohaffcutter pulpers, double action pump, and potato digger; anT Mey's cream separators .{were also shown and approved. Ploughs of ,3ifferent grades, and all-steel hoes of Mealor's make were displayed; as also were Welsh tub and end-over-end churns in large assortments. In addition there were Deering's "Ideal Reap- er," cultivators of Massey's horse rake, pig trough, mowing machines of various makes, the tnest important being Cambrian Mower, and Bamford's easy mower, etc. Messrs Hughes and Burrows have appeared for many years in ftliis annual show with implements, but this year's was one of their beat exhibits. Mr E. Lloyd Jones, W a.tiingAstreet, aleo sliowed very assortment of implements, including T&ngvr'a 6 ih.p. oil engines and Williams' 3i h.p. gnsrinee. which were shown in action, and amply gemonfstrating their utility to t<he large number W fwrmars who watched the process. He also exhibited WUtiaeae' ohaif outtert, pulpers; oil cake mills and horse powers; Corbett's grinding mill; Lister's cream separators; end over end and Welsh tub churns; Martin's patent swath turner; Martin's and Maxwell's cultivators; Os- borne powers; Ransorao's ploughs, ohain and zig-zag harrows; portable washing boilers, mangles, garden seats, etc., etc. Mr J. Tudor Williams, of Station-road, ooou- pied a la.rge pitch with his exhibits, amongst which were the end over end Welsh pattern churns ah-own in motion. A Victoria oil en- gine, 4 h.p., wa,¡;. also shown at work, and came in. for a R're-at; deal of attention, impressing the spectator with its simplicity and utility. Chaff cutters, root pulpers, Molotfce's croain se- parators; Waleh and Olarke's oil engines, flour bins, wringing and mangling machines, etc., were also shown. The following firms were also represented :— Messrs Hills and Sorts, artificial mianure manu- facturers, Amlwch; White's maize germ and Clarend's cakes for horses; Gar ton' seed; Hew- thorn's horse powder; Dickson, seedsmen, Chea- ter and the last but not least, Mr Willoughby Lance, of Llandudno, whose choice selection of electrical plant evidently interested a large num- ber of the spectators. Du'ring' the afternoon the Royal Oak ley Silver Band rendened selections, which considerably en- livened the proceedings. THE EXHIBITS. The exhibits formed not only a record in number, but also in quality. The judges spoke very hlglhl.v of the horse section, especially the "heavy brigade," there being absolutely not a poor heavy animal in t.he field. Messrs J. and J. Foulkes. df Conway, succeeded in winning tihe "Bodnant Chalileitge Cup" with a magnifi- cent gelding, although he was closely pressed by Mrs Jones. Bodafon Hall Farni, Llandudno, with "Sussie II." The heavy class -included 58 exhi- bits, or an increase qf 26 on the previoug yeajr. In the light horse section the silver challenge cup was awarded to Mr Hugh Owen, The Ab- bey, Llanrwst, who showed a seven-year-old in solendid condition. There were 83 exhibits in this section, or an increase of 49 on tihe previous show. a fact which amply demonstrates the in- creased interest evinced by farmers in the rear- ing of highfedass light boirses. In the other classes, in both heavy and light horse sections, the competitions were very keen, with the re- sult that the judges were set a heavy task. The turn-outs, owing to the heavy rain, were not seen to the best advantage, yet even the inclement weather failed to rob them of their neatness asd smartness. The cattie section also showed an increased number of exhibits, tho total being 83. The ■ animals were in the pink of condition, and of t,he best quality, the general impression being that they were bhe best lot ever shown on the Gwvdr grounds. The sheep were also very good, but considering the tens of thousands that are reared annually in the district the number of exhibits were lower than they should be. This section shou'ld certainly draw more competituors, and it is to be hoped that next year's show will show an im- provement in this 'respect. There was only a small number of pigs but 0, those exhibited were off the highest quality. The dogs were shown this year in a waterproof tent—a noteworthy improvement—and admirably benohed by "Old Calabar" Company. This de- oartment was held under K.C. rules, under whioh aU the dogs must be registered by the Kennel Club. The "doggies" welre there in large numbers, Eund some of them were indeed beauti- ful specimens, which provoked a feeling of oovetness in the beholders. The poultry were also shown under a water- proof tent, and properly penned and fed by "Old Calabar." Messrs H. and R. Eastwood, off the Woodlands Poultry Farm, Conway, and Colonel Sandbaoh exhibited a large number of very fi-ne birds. Amongst the exhibits was an exceptionally large black orpington oook with some beautiful white wyandottes, and white leghorns. Some of the bird;" were of excep- tional merit, while others hardly reached show form. Pigeons were not largely exhibited, yet there were a, few good homers) fantails, and dragons shown. The gate money amounted to £ 95, but the grand stand, owing to the rain, only 'realised £ 5 17s. AWARDS. The following w-ore the awards:- AGRICULTURAL HORSES.
