• THE CATTLE CLASSES. PUREBRED SHORTHORNS. •,

•Ohe>6f. the sections-watched -with the greatest interest was that for: purebred Shorthorns. The Wairarapa was . repreiented;.by Messrs. W. C. Buchanan and \V. "Howard Booth; who were opposed- by Ur. : W. T. Williams, -of• Te -Aute, •■ and Messrs. 1 Dalziell Brothers,'of Huhterville; No. finer exhibition "of quality in the breed could be, collected in the island. The: jhdge- (Mr. A. Chamberlain,, of Canterbury) is of the opinion that the cows are the best lot that:he has ever seen at Carterton. The , section as a whole •; is,' he thinks, the best. that: the 6how -has produced. The judging was fairly/-'consistent with the awarding at the Hawke's. Bay Show, but, while .the cow championship at both shows went to, Mr. W; T. Williams, the Hastings placing ,t>f his'' two principal animals was re-:versed-at Carterton.! /The.'results'.were-as followi— -...;' : .V „:: v /,;"'-,.;■/',,.:.' : ■_'

'■.-'■ DAIRY PRODUCE. The exhibition of dairy produce was a really excellent one. Tho cheese display was tho finest ever put>on in Carterton, there being six tons of it tabled. The quality has always been good, but, this year, the quantity is greater than ever, and ; it is satisfactory that new factories are coming into the competition. The quality was stated to be quite-equal to that shown at the Palmerston North Winter Show. ; The importance of the district in the vicinity of Carterton as a cheese-producing area is .widely known, and it is to the credit of the district referred to that, from it, such a great exhibit was collected. The butter was not quite so great as usual in quantity, but the quality was very-fine. In cheese, Greytown and Dalefield each scored two firsts: . .CHEESE. • The full details of the cheese competition are as follow:— Two-coloured Cheeses.
