He first introduced for practical demonsttation three fine ands valu able heavy horses from the stables of the McMillan's, Port Perry, He touk each in turns and thoroughly explained their most valuable and important : features ; dwelling at léngth on the superior points each animal possessed and where imper féctions existed which. ret bs snpenled to the audience if in their judgment they deviated from his decisions, but the response was such as to prove that all acquiesc- ed in his conclusions. Mr. Barbour next introduced two magnificent animals from the celebrated stables of Dundrennan Farm, Reach-a dual purpose cow and a heifer, both Shorthorns. If anything he went more minutely into their importance of construction than he did in the horse class and his dilineations of their conformation so as to produce the largest proportion possible of the most valuable meat of the ani- mal, thoroughly elucidating the importance in the interest of feeder, buyer and consumer that the quali- ty of the most valuable parts of the animal should be the best possible ; and while he had no chart to ex- plain he 1s an adept at showing by his hands on the points which he desires lo call particular attention to, The animals on which he delin- eated were models of perfection and Mr. Barbour spoke eulogistically of the County of Ontario for its fame in . possessing superior pure bred stock and it was the place where two such animals as he bad just had the pleasure of examining were to be found. The audience sustain: ed Mr. Barbour on his judgment in every respect. The lectures in the Town Hall in the evening were highly aE -and 3 tive | w. 'aud much a ence.

Mr. Silcox is certainly without a peer as a specialist i in'the line of fine and intricate judging of the class of animals in which he is so thoroughly versed and he is as exhaustless as he -is 'eonvigeing.
