This was in black with Brewster green panels and trimmed with all-wool 20th cenâ€" tury material. The dash was fitted With a. fancy screen, wings, and a set of chimes. This elegant rig was bought by Mr. Alex. Braden, Bob- caygeon. Mr. Hamilton’s rigs all had a. beautiful finish and a selec- ition of colors that made them very attractive. Dougall Sinclair Again Wins First Prize At the east end of the building arm on the grass plot still eastward stood as fine an exhibit of carriages as has ever been made at any‘town fair in the province. In fact many declared that these rigs were not surpassed at the Toronto exhibition. There were 7 buggies! 5 cutters, a wagon, a Annmn pan-um)“ a, road wagmi and There “Were C wagon, a agbn and the Toronto exhibition. 7 buggies} 5 cutters, a double carriage, a road w a Mikado. While the buggies had all the up- to-date mechanical equipments, they were especially attractive in their finish. No such painting and varâ€" nishing had been se‘n in previous years. Some of the finest efl'ects were imitations of Scotch granite, mahogany, walnut and moss. agate. Besides these were the exquisite tints red and curmine with of blue. green. mottles of these colors. The bodies were in the very newest designs. The bevelled sides and the shutter effect on the seat riser were new. And these parts were cut from the solid plank into these shapes by hand. The trimmings were leather, velvet and car plush and these goods in striking union. - Mr. Jas. Mark, head painter. made a reputation for himself by the ex- cellent finish on these rigs. The {lawless varnish without streak or speck. the wonderful blends, tints and imitations, and the well-chosen combinations on body and gear, were‘ above praise. Trimmer Eck and Woodworker Bushell also won their laurels by this grand exhibit. Those bought from Mr. Sinclair: Hiram Corneil, Reaboro; Andrew McGill. Janetville: William Brisbin, Yelverâ€" ton: A. Storer. town ;’ Seth Motherâ€" ell. Little Britain: Thos. Webster. Oakwood bought buggies. William Moynes. Fenelon Falls. got a Wag- on. Cutters were sold to Jas. Sto- kes, Valenti-a; and L. McGill, Janet- ville. F'H mgr]: ”-14"! In their fine new home at, the south side of the front campus the poultry lifted up their voices and assumed a dignity quite in keeping with their improved abode. Perhaps this was the most nearly perfect exhibit on the grounds. The surroundings and equipment were ideal, and every inch of room was occupied. About 300 pairs of fowl were shown. These included chickens in 3:. variety and excellence that astonished even those who knew something of the feathered stock of the county, ducks, geese, turkeys. guinea. fowl and peacocks. There were magnificent specimens of each sort. Mr. Rice of Whitby was judge. A glance at the prize list will show that the old standbys‘ Trew. Oliver and Williamson Bros. got their share of prizes, but divided the honors with other local and dis- tant competitors whose presence was ‘ much appreciated . Among the Live Stock The live stock display this year has well maintained the reputation of the Central fair. which is, according to ‘1‘: LA VA to. . ..... the verdict of many exhibitors, the best outside the large cities. It not only excels in the number of en- tries. in the different classes, but alâ€" so in the superiority of the stock exhibited. This statement applies equally to horses, cattle, sheep, swine and poultry. There is 3. mar- ‘ked improvement in the stock of the past few years, and a. constantly in- creasing regard for blood-lines and greater care exercised in maturing. Farmers are now realizing the im- portance of line breeding more and more and pedigrees are going to count more in the future than in the past. It pays to breed the best, and the high prices prevailing are a still greater inducement to the stockmen. . The showing of equines this year was in many respects ahead of all previous records. In the various classes for heavy drafts there were a. number of high-class animals exhi- .‘l (Continued from Page 1.) uuuLVV; v- --~c,, bited. In aged stallions Dr. Broad Was first and second with Granite Lad and Knight of St. Andrew. Mr. Goslin’s fine three-year-old entire colt Erskine Lad was favorably criticised. The same owner showed a fine year-‘ old colt. which secured second place, Mr. J. Webster of Oakwood captur- ing first honors. W. F. Broad and J. Ball also showed two' worthy foals. In the brood mare with foal by side Mr. Webster was again first. Mr. J. W. Sluggett second and Mr. Jas. Connolly third, and Marshall W. Mitchell, F. Waldon and J. T. Degeer all contributed entries that could have won out a few years ago. Mr. R. Eagleson secured first honors on a rattling fine big Clydesdale filly three years old. In the twaear-old di- vision Mr. J. Found of V alentia Was the winner. Dr. Broad’s good colt coming second and W. Mitchell third. A number of fine foals were exhibited .Mr. Webster adding another to his victory in this class. , 11,- There was a fine showing in the general purpose division but it seems strange to this journal that the dirâ€" ectorate of our large fair continue to encourage this class When all the highest agricultural authorities en- dorse only line breeding. We know that this breed is supposed to com- prise animals that go well in har- ness and are at the same time ex-‘ cellent workers but the fact still reâ€" ‘mains that superior animals can be secured if line breeding is judiciously followed. Where success follows this mixing of breeds a. hundred failures could be recorded. A lot of nice brood mares with foals at their side were exhibited. Mr. Simon Marshall won first honors on both mare and In the New Poultry House buildin If and foalL but had the misfortune to 1088 'as they we?" the .latter before the fair was over; Kcswick's ha The principle exhibitors were : Mes-‘1 not so valua srs.

In the two-year-old lot Mr. Mor- row of Pontypool was the winner. Mr. William Downer of Little Britain secured second place with a nice tdack Canadian Star finy that an1 make 'a nice roadster. Mr. D. Heas- lip was third with a good entry by the same sire. Good colts were also shown by Messrs. John Hickson, G. Pogue and John Vance. In the class for yearâ€"olds hir. J.

Peterboro handled the lines over a smooth black mare that was just a; little deficient in speed. Capt. Ball of the Str. Comet took the air ‘beâ€" hind a. big bay mare of the Royal George strain. There was a nice showing of double teams under 151/2 hands. Dr. Hall of Little Britain was an easy win- ner with a natty pair of chestnuts, with long tails sired by Sunshine. Mr. F. Waldon secured the place. with Mr. W. Roddy’s smooth pair of bays in third position. Mr. J. T. Degeer of Oakwood showed a cross- matched pair of ponies that will make useful roadsters. Our old friend John Vance of Bethany had a free-going pair of bays but no one would accuse John of having them in show-ring form. Only four contestants were found‘ in the class for drivers under 151/2 hands. Mr. W. D. Brethour won the red ticket with a nice clean-stepping bay mare by Keene Rose. Mr. Geo. Ferguson of Lotus was an easy sec- ond with a nice Admiral Champion chestnut mare. Mr. W. W. Logan secured the place with a compact : brown mare. Mr. J. C. Anderson, * the popular cheese maker was left just outside the money with a nice black Morgan mare that seine few critics thought might have been placâ€" ; ed a notch or two higher. But it was left to the three-yearâ€" old drivers to furnish the sensation of the day. It was certainly a great fieldâ€"â€"eleven entries competing. Mr. Geo. W. Curtis won the coveted hon- ors with the speedy chestnut mare Minnie Keswick. Mr. W. Mulligan of Lif‘ford came second with a knee acting bay with white markings, sired by Hermit. Mr. Thos.§Cul‘ly of Lotus dropped into third place with a large clever-going gelding by Kes- wick. Mr. D. G. Ferguson of Lotus showed a rattling good filly by Black Mack. ’ Mr. J. L. Powers of Fairbairn showed a clever bay filly by Keepsake. Mr. '1‘. W. Blackwell of Lindsay showed a big chestnut gelding by Keswick that will be heard from latter on. Mr. Norman McGill of Sanetville showed a sweetâ€" going filly by Muckle Wilkes. Mr. B. Corscadden showed a big smooth bay filly by Sunshine. Duncan Heaslip of Janetville showed a” big clever Canadian Star Gelding, which had ; speed to burn, but was a bad actor in company. Mr. William Found 5 showed a smooth bay mare by Black Valentine that is pretty near the right sort. Mr. Thos. Arnold show- ed large brown mare sired by Zacco. The gentlemen’s turnout for the Rudd Harness Co’s. special received some fourteen entries, but only five .- of which went before the judges. ,_ They were Geo. W. Curtis’ Keswick,‘ '-‘ James Bushel’s pacer, Les. Bowes bay gelding, Chas. Veitch’s bay mare; Mr. Curtis’ turnout was awarded the] honors. ' In awarding the same Mr. Passmore explained that the point ' had been raised as to the eligibility of entire horses, and the donor's en- dorsation had set aside the opinion of the judges in the matter, All they had to do was to judge them flicvutlv- s the only feature of the râ€" fair that was really weak.
