Poultry Show at Remington Lost Money—Quits Business.

The Remington Poultry Association has gone out of business after holding eight annual shows. The officers of the association report that this year’s show was held at a small loss, that there was a smaller attendance than formerly and that the number of exhibits was not so large, although in quality it was the best show ever given. The show was held the same week that the Rensselaer and Morocco shows were held and the conflict of dates is held to have worked to the disadvantage of all. The report of the officers states that there has been a gradual falling off in the attendance and interest.
