POULTRY SHOW WILL BE HELD JANUARY 7-10 Annual Exhibition Oldest of Kind in Counm try. The , fifty-third annual exhibition of the Indianapolin Poultry Show will be held in Tomlinson Hall Jan. 7 to 10, Inclusive. This is the oidest poultry show In America and the only one on the American continent that has held fifty-three consecutive exhibitions. Tomlinson Hall. long the scene of the show, is as well known to the poultrymen of this and foreign countries as the Soldeirs and Sailors’ Monument, It was In this Hail, at an exhibition more than thirty-five years ago that the late Sidney Conger of Shelbyville, Ind„ sold a Burred Plymouth Rock cockerel for {SOO. That was the highest price paid for a single male bird of any breed up to that time. Some fifteen years later TJ. R. Fisihel, Hope, Ind., sold five White Plymouth Rocks in the same show for $1,750, and every year there la a demand for the best that can be produced in the Hoosier State. The prices mentioned, no doubt, have been doubled many times over it the past ten years. leading Poultry State Indiana Is looked up by the poultry fanciers of the United States and Canada us having more up-to-date breeders than any other one State in the Union. There are more prominent poultry breeders whc> axe making the breeding of standard fowls their exclusive business than in any other one State, and there are moro breeders in Indiana winning highest honors in the big national shows of the United States and Canada than in any other State. In fact, the State seems to be adapted to the breeding of the best quality of poultry of the many different varieties, and for that reason a winhlng at this exhibition Is looked upon as having a greater value than shows of the same size held in other parts of the country. Realizing the Importance of the educational feature, arrangements have been made with the poultry department of Purdue at Lafayette, Ind., to have their*representatives on hand during the four days of the show. There wdll be demonstrations In culling, short talks on feeding, housing, Incubating and brooding, and every visitor at this exhibition Is privileged to ask questions on any phase of poultry culture about which he may be in doubt. Exhibit Planned Among other features that have been added this year is an exhibit of the McMillen Feed Company of Ft. Wayne, Ind. Indianapolis will have a chance to see a big mill in operation, with moving trains, elevators, train sheds, mixing and distributing poultry feeds in carload and trainload lots. In addition to the poultry exhibition there will be held the fifth championship cat show of the Indianapolis Cat Club, and this exhibition, like the poultry, is attracting national attention and bringing the best fanciers from all parts of the country to compete for prizes.
