Toronto, (of the Win.

Space will not permit here to more than mention this meet- ing. butafull account will be found in~the published report. Fat Stock and Dairy Show Vithout dispute the late Show sur- passed anything of the. kind hereto- fore attempted. No such a show was ever before nearly approached, and the steers and wethers were also par- ticularly good. Other years outstand- ing winners were to he found in many of the classes, this year nothing had a mortgage upon the prize money, and never Wexe the premimns so closely fought for. The attendance was greatly increased and the receipts must he gratifying to the executive as Well as to the citizens of Brantford, who may be said to have pledged themselves that the show should be a $l'lfCPSS. During the week several Live Stock organizations held their annual meet- ings. elected officers, etc. Among the number may be mentioned the Amer- iCan Oxford-Down Record Association this I believe, being the first time that the annual meeting has been held out of the state of Ohio. The American Leicester Breeder-3’ Association hav- i ing headquarters at Cameron. 111., I also naid us the honor of holding: their Lust yoarwe had to chrnnirle the advent of an American aspirant tn sweppstnke honors; this year no such brave antagonist faced the judges, but if tlw stuck remained within their stalls never have our shores been in- vaded by such a representative body of American stockmen as upon this occasion. Only the Atlantic and Pacific oceans seem to limit the sphere of influence of this Association. The Hon. Sydney Fisher, Ottawa, and the Hon John Dryden, Tux-onto, were in attendance. Pruf. Curtis, Ames, iuwa, gave an admirable address, thoroughly practical and a. model of incisive bpeaking. Geo. McKerrow, E, ., of \IVisconsin, also favored us win one of his admirably conceived and characteristic speeches. There were others and many of them, but I must, not forget, the Hon. A. S. Hardy, who proved the blightest and most satisfaxrtm-y chairnmn for a gathering such as the one on Wednesday even- ing. The officers were on lumd early and late ; the energetic secretary was ubiquitous and nothing escaped his notice or attention. A In the Shorthorn class for steers two years old, Matt. Wilson, Fergus, won first with a capital White by Sittyton Chief. He was entirely worthy of his lace. “’hut a magnificent bulk he ooked when he came out for champion- ship honors. No lady in the. land could have her toilet more carefully attended to than had " Lord Minto." His competitors. though good, were fairly beaten. They were indeed bred in the purple as their sire Guards- man was. also the sire of St. Valen- tine. the gallery at at some of the state fairs in the Tnited States last yen r. The next class produced another white for first. Harry Smith’s winner of last year as a calf. Quality was pronounced. and as both abutcher’s zindsfeeder’s steer there was not a. better. perhaps excepting the yearling .Angus. His competitors were very much larger and out of class as year- lings and require no comment. Steer calves were a poor class. and now that prices have improved for bulls we need i not expect to see so many thorough- steers on exhibition. Ainon st the. females but little can be saig except that it is a matter of congratulation ‘ that the ' are not at a fat stock show, and to chronicle those that are is per- ‘haps doing the owner littl‘e good. I must not, however. pass Fried‘s two year old. She was think fleshed, and is!) outstanding winner. with. how- ever, a. coarse shoulder. lierefords were re resented by one solitary in- di\ ldllflFlllld the. tale is soon told. He should have, “gone to Texas ” when ‘oung. Amongst Angus. Walter Hall had an excellent yearling. Galloways imtde a better show than uslml; not that they Were in fat stock show con- ditionâ€"they were not. Their curly. lustrous coats, however. captured all hearts, and they really were one of the attractions of the. cattle clas'Ses. I could not secure it list of awards. but u fjrticularly noticed a heifer of Thos. odeones. a calf of Roht. Shmv's and of D. McUx-ue’s. In Devons. Mr. Rudd was again to the fore, and in competition with the Galloway‘s won in most of the older classes. King Council met at Watson's Hotel, Loch Em, on Dec. 15th.
