NATIONAL A. AND P. ASSOCIATION.
The movement to'establish a National A. and P. Association in New Zealand, which had. its ovigin in Masterton, is likely to be revived at the forthcoming A. and P. conference in Wellington. The advantages of such an Association' have not yet been fully realised by the .individual Societies. A "National," or "Royal" Association would allocate championship classes to the different societies. By this means the interest in every show would be increased, and the prize® more keenly contested. The Association might also deal with such subjects as hereditary unsoundness in horses, the appointment of , judges, the registration of societies, and so forth. The whole status of agricultural societies would 0( ? improved if such aai Association were in existence. The present biennial conferences do good woi'k; but their decisions are in no way binding upon the individual societies, and they are therefore of more or less negative value.
