SOUTHLAND AGRICULTURAL SHOW.
A SUCCESSFUL EXHIBITION
[Press Association.]
INVERCARGILL, Dee. 8
The Southland summer show was opened to-day in splendid weather. The sheep and cattle were judged. In both sections the quality was an improvement on that of last year’s exhibits, though the numbers were smaller. There are very few outside entries in cattle, and the prizes mostly stayed at home. In sheep the local fiockmasters held their own, except in Corrietlales, in which class Mr. John. Stringfellow, of Canterbury, secured all the honors. The show of fat sheep and lambs was particularly fine. The weather promises well for the People’s Day to-morrow, and the prospects are that the show will be the most successful yet held there.
