According to present indications everything is promising for the Afitumn Show of the Franklin A. arc! P. Society Show, which will be held on Friday and Saturday, February 25 and 26, 1921. Several well-wishers have promised handsome donations towards the prize-list of society. The council of the Jersey Breeders' Association has donated £6O to the Jersey classes, of which £2O is specified for the champion bull, and £3O fdr the champion cow. *fn order to encourage" the saving of. grass seed a gold medal, which will be supplemented by a money prize, is offered for the best bushel of cocksfoot in the show. This is a splendid opportunity for schoolboys. In the summer holidays a boy could make a lot of money saving cocksfoot. He could 9«ve a bushel of'the bes. of it and exhibit it, and chance the odds of winning a prize. A lover of Mowers is donating a sum of thirty shillings to the aster classes. He specifies ten shillings for 24 blooms in the ostrich plume, the single aster, and the double aster, making three classes.
