MADE A “KITLLING” AT LOWELL.

The Jasper county poultry fanciers ‘cleaned up” the Lowell Poultry Show Friday, Wm Hershman of Walker township leading the attack with his Black Langshans. On cockerels he showed first and second; on pullets, Ist, 2d, 3d, 4th, 6 th; on hens, Ist and 2d; on cocks, Ist, 2d, 3d, 4th, and Ist and 2d on pens. He also won a handsome silver cup for having the highest scoring bird in the show. It was nip and tuck between the Langshan and a Barred Rock, but the perfect feathers of Hershman’s bird brought home the money. Emmet Pullin, as usual, showed class in the Barred Rocks, and his birds won Ist, 2d and 3d, pullets; Ist and 2d, hens; Ist, 2d and 3d cockerels. His brqnze turkey cockerel showed first, his pullet second, and his hens first and second. Charles Norman won three firsts in the Partridge Cochin class.
