KING COUNTRY SHOW.

THE OPENING DAY. The third annual Show under the auspices of the King Country Central Agricultural "and Pastoral Association was opened " to-day at the Showground, Te Kurai. Mr C. K.

The opening day is chiefly devoted to judging and a large attendance is not expected. However, a very fair number of country people manifesting a keen interest in all the exhibits wended their way to the Showground, and it is anticipated that an increase over the attendance of last year will be shown when the returns come to be made up. . .

The competitors in the hack and hunting classes constitute a big attraction for the public, and this year there is every indication that keen contests will be provided. , , .., . Attention is called to the fact that the smoke concert in connection with the Show will be held in the Municipal Hall on Thursday evening.
