NATIONAL DAIRY SHOW.

ARRANGEMENTS WELL IN HAND. The National Dairy Show Committee (telegraphs our Palmerston correspondent) is very 1 actively engaged in. preparing for the show next month. Already exhibitors .are at work in the Exhibition Hall, preparing the stands for their machinery exhibits. Every available foot of space in. No. 1 and No. 2 halls, has been taken up, even the alleyways ~ being utilised.- These two halls will be devoted exclusively to moving machinery, whilst this year the stationary machinery will • overflow into No. 3 hall. All the machinery will, of course, pertain to-dairying only. The butter and cheese entries constitute a record, while the fruit and vegetable and farm .root sections promise to' bo more.- extensive than ever. No. 4 hall has been allotted' to th<i Agricultural Department, whose display will be as comprehensive as ever. The Department will only be , exhibiting, at three other shows besides Palmorston; viz., Auckland, Invercargill, and Dunedin, and it intends to make its exhibit both instructive and interesting. The milking-machine demonstrations will be given in No. 5 hall, and other accommodation will Ibe found for the poultry exhibits. It looks very much as •if next year the society will have seriously to face the question of erecting still another hall, as there is such a; doniand for space that it is almost impossible to do without further building.
