ihe wretclied conditions then prewaiting. Al- thougli i!t iwas very oloudy arid tlireateiiiiaig on Saturday rain kept off and there was a very good attendance of farmeip from dif ferent parts ot the district. The society Rdoing good work ahcT has good local sup port. A feature of the show was the cred itable fact that locaJ farmers entered so lurgeiy lor the competitions. There are nuuiy open classes also and kn these tlie local exhibitors did very well. The Society was established in 1810, and iit was par- ticuiariy gratifying that the exliibits for this year were considerably in advance of the previous record.

THE EXHIBITS.
h a c k n e y s a n d h u n t e r s . Open classes of hackneys led the pm-
gramme, and in three-yealr-olds Mr. Charles Clark, of MTialey Bridge a'nd Manches- fer, won with a handsome
FPoilonii.us ” geld- (!'g, dam by “ Denmark.” which .shows its 6xteption;rl breeding, ft is a good mover, hi two year-olds Mr. T. YL .Astlev. who li'ld ;i fine string of animals lioro. but par-
si.iln ill giving no-particullars in the cata.- logue. 'Won earily wiith a nice chestnut filily, iilso by “ P.olonius.” and .a fine mover. The leadings ware moderate, and Mr. Rayton ''3s first irith one bv “ Rosebery II.’’ In
jo,xls the winner of Mr. Rayton’s

dass with “ Miss ktay,” bv “ Lord Chancel- but the classes ivere smalH. Her foal
3.ga.in, and is bv Mr. Alfred
Nutt.all’s Kipling -Astonishment.” Thel-e .lire
''kisies here for htmters, and thev were mod irately filled. Mifc. Hick, of Myttoin Hall had the only three-year-oiTd. Mte 'Hick "on with a
hand.some chestnut .two-year- od by “ Reid Ba,gle.*' and Mrs. Hiick was ■ ''tcond with a fapKionably brCd one. In Yariing-s Mr. Brown, of Ikincaster, won "kh a Boltoni and Lancaster winner sired -ML H. L._ Storey’s “ Ulrtderbred.” He
"tm in foals with one bred exaictlv the samet lit his mare hy “ Par ci. par la.” ivas, only
^ond. In the fiffeenl-Stone claiss Mr. onyon. of Bmy, aime first with his wel'l- horse “ &Uor,” and Mr. Cape was
g haps luckv to be second with a: plailnish horse, though Mr. -R. R Rotblwell’s dhest
143 74
iut, which was third, is perhaps rather leggy and short of timber. A good second in the light weights to Mr. KenyOn/sDeetruc- tton ” was Lord Rbblesdail'e’s “ Lancer,” a fine quaUty bay with dark points that looks Rke gaHopimg. There was a large but ordinary class of npvices in hairieiss, Mr. Nutter’s exhibit moving most freely, though Mr. Nuttall’s second is more of a hackney type. Messrs. Fergusion, of Macclesfield', won to saddle and harness with that untir ing little mare, “ Queen Gbi Bang,'' Mr. Whittaker, of Accrington, being twice second with a “ Sir Horace.” Mr. Charlies Clark’s “ Merry Girl ” woo to saddle not over thirteen hands, and was ridden by hfis son, whq appears to be inlieiitilng his fa,ther’s love of liorsep, espedally the best harness animals of liackney type. Second to her was Mr. J. W„ Wb'ittaker's “Berke ley Model'’ pony wiith styEsh action, but it does n)it get a,way, and has not the con> inct build of th,e little filly. “ Fylde Sab- rinetta ” was here, and was piiaced' above a handsome and mudi fresher harness horse in Mr. Anderton’s “ MMekiog.” the Lytham winner.
CART HORSES.
The heavy horses were all shires, and were confined mostly to lilie district.
fit
was gratifying to see such a, good local entry. Most of the maxes showed signs of w'prjc. and had with them foals by g)Jod pedigree sires. Mr. Kearns had stylish two and three year plds here, but his yeair- ling by “ Eros,” dam “ KnottiHigley Fuch sia,” had to stand back to Mr. Robert Hull’s fiilly by “ Lockinge MannetiS,'’ first at Gars
'tang, Poulton, Pilling and elsewhere. Tlie executors of J. Mercer, of Alston FLifl', won in the mare or gelding class with a four year old, mare by “ Alston Heino,” one of the best seen in the district this year. In each da.s6 of youngsters tliere were two or three good fillies. Mr. J. Ruthepford. M.P.. gave prizes to three
ten.int fanuers’ classes for mares and fqr foals. As a mile the first and second foals were bad to separ ate in the open classes, and Mr. Croq|k, of Huyton. had a capital mare in both .secwxns. The medal went to Jf.r. Kearn.s’s two year old filly.
SUCCESSES OE THE REDVALES HERD.
ft is almost enough to say thait in the
open cattle classes Mir. T. Atisiinson, of RedvaJes, Bury, had three
exhab.lis. He won with his famous bul'l “ Pride of Sun shine,” shown as fit as ever, and in tlie young bull class witb'iijnew exhibit. This is a promising youngiffied antoial bred by exhibitor and as he' isvufmamed it was sug gested he should be caMed “ The Abbit.” as his first wim was at AYhaJley; though, seeing his cdlour, “ The Cardinal ’ might not be inappropriate. In heifers over eighteen mo.nths Mr. .Aitkiaison. won with a haffisi'stet- to the famous “ Jennie ” and in the young claas he took second to a Hoole bred heifer shown by Mr. A. .A. G.iitty that has w;on several lliists.
f’n- a group of
three Mr. .Atkinson was first, and as tisiial his stock were well shown by hti'S son, Mr. Fred .Atkinson, who has had marvellous success with the herd in the showyards tlii,s seaso'n. The local classes were -iiicefy filled with
f.irmer.s’ stock, but thei.-e were no outstanding good
ani.mal.s, nor were the rlaixy^ cows of special merti.. There w.i.s a good entry of sheep, inicluding seveinal
clas.ses of Lonks. and pigs were a fair sec tion. The cheese and butter aind produce tent was attractive. This department is more a. feature here than it has been.
fiit-
deed, cheese making is increasing in the dto- trict. and it is of excellent quality. The
da.iries at maiuy fainnsteads up here airu being- .nlfered to allow of cheese
ma.king on .approved princip1e.s, and it is weiiil tli.nt this alternative wa.y of dealing iritih milk is beiing practiserl. Th'e teaching of the Countv Council and tbe encouragement .at
•the shows have much to dp with this en couraging new departure. An instmetive exhibit ivas that of coHebtions of desii'abfe and undesirable grasses in- two classes.
THE LUNCHEON. .At noon a public luiicheoiiti w;il; served in
a large mairquee by Messto. Mellling and Ed munds, f’reston. ' Fr. Pimn'togton (Stony- hurst College), President for the year, prev sided.. There was a large and inflitent.ial companv present, i-ndudilng, Mr. H. W. ■ Worsley-Tayla-, K.C.. Rev. R. Newman, M.A. '(Vicair):. Capt. Worsl'ey-Taylfir, C.C., Drs. Macklti (VYlialfey) and Gill (Ixingho). Mir. J. R. Aspinal'l, Dr. J.. J. Smiiililuefi (Clitheroe), Mr. R.. 'rh'ompson-. Mr. J. Trappes-I^omax and Mr. J. W. .Aistley. to gether with the officials and members of the
conimiiit'tee. Fr. Pinnington proposed the iisiiad loyall
■ toast of the Kilng. He said they .ill knwv somefhtog of the .capabilitiep and .Tbilities of their Kikig. They were a'M .ptoud^ of his tact, .tvhich indeed was abye ivord through-
■ oub other naitliianis- If other nation.s a.ppre- eiated aind esteemed 'als tii'ey iSaid they did, then the people of .this country ought not to be behind in. appreoialiTig
ih.is abilities and tact. The toast of 'the King was well received in every couriri’ ihi England, hut it oottld nlot be receSived in a better wa.y th'aii it was in Laincalriiiire.. (Applnmc). They knew that the King was* ppnid to use the title of Duke of IJancaSter when he occa- siionally travelled incognito. He also le- fqrred to the great interest takw by the King in agricnltui'e. He made it a duty.
amoi^ the many duties ha had to his poisit- taon,_toi send exhibits to the Itoyal Show .™d .if possible to eincourage the show ivith his pr^ence. This year the King sent ^me very g^od specimehs of shorthorns to Bolton, aind those who saw them might very weR admit tha.t they are not to be despised even to Lancashlij-e. They were also pleased to see him catnytog off first priize with a shorthorn hd.felr. ■ He (Fr. Pinning ton) thought_ they owed the King a little OTty for the interest which he ever took in ■ that cause. They also respected the Kin, ^,^especter of the wfotrid and their oivln King. They might talk about the beauti ful decorations he carried as
Em.peror ol India, and the big diamond of Africa., but he ventured to think tha.t' his proudest
decoration woiiTd be the Crown, of England (.Applause). TTie toiast was heartily received. Proposing the toast of the Ytoalley Agri
cultural Association-. Fr. P'inlnilngt0ni said that t i^ t ivas almost as welcome as the preceding .one. It was more local and was interetsttog to themselves personallv. Tn
that Associa,tioin they were all intere.Sfed both in that disifrict a.nd from a.far. Tliev were p^oiid of the age of that
A.ssocii.ntiiou. which in three year.5 time would ce'lebr.nte its centenary, it wduld then'
ha.ve existed hundred .years. He would like to. mentioin one little incident in con-nention wiifh'thait. For more than half the time the show had been in
exi.stence. for more than fifty vears there was one gentleimen present who ha,d .never fai.!ed to attend that show and hin.- cheon at Whalley. The gentlema.n he referred to was Mir. R. Thompson. (.Ap plause). That shoired hhw those in the diptnet had worked strenuously to'keeip the Association going. , He referred to the names of the late Mr. Gte'en and the l.i,te .Mr. Thos. Longivorth. who, he .said, repre sented to his mind, figures who ever strived to keep that .Associa.ti’oin “ up to the m.ijrk,” .and they had succeeded very weiH.
'ft
spoke well Oir a small village,
a.lthough' an im.portant one. like YfhaiUey to maintain that .Association for 97 yea,rs. It also .spoke well for the visitors toi AYhallley lie- cause if they had no visitoirii they would only make a very poor .sho|w- Tniey all wished it great success .and that it shUiild live to be a hundred years old.- He ex pressed the hO'pe that they would
ha.ve a large crowd on the fidd that afternoon. He said there was an excellent show, indeied he did not suppose he. would challdiige anyone present to tell him that there ever wais a better show of good cattle in tha.t yard, the shoithpms and dairy cows were excelSenl.. There was an e.xceii.leiit show of horses. The s'hire horses and foals were worth going a long way to look at. .-Vltogether they
h.id a very good sliow and if the sim ivpuld shine upon them he would be toiclined to say what he thought of the shpw in. one word, which he heard ve|iy,,often in that district. He did not know -whelhcf the word was uiiii'ersal or not but it was a word
that was applied .to various bhingp indiffeil ently. The Association were having a “ champion ” sltow. He co,upfed with the toast the name of Mt. Arthur Longworth, through whose energy and perseverance they were having such a good show- There was one povtion of stock in which Lanca shire excelled and that was cattle', which he attributed tO' the good spribkling of sh|yr.ti- horn blood amongst them. He said if they walked from Whaiitey to Ski'pton, firpt through that diririct and then through 'the Craven district, he .sajljd
w.alk, because if they went in. a. nio,toir car they would see I’.ery little, they would obseiwe some .yf the finest dairy cows in Bnglalnd. The 'WhaJ- ley heifer-and Q'aven heifer were notorious. He related how tlie local stock in yeais gone by had been improyed by the iinfusion of the Bates and the Butterfly blood from the once famed Tbwnley herd.
fii Lama-
shire they had giit to look toi -their cattle •and sheep. There were farmers who com plained they cou'id not get their price for milk. If they could induce the rail way companie.s to reduce their freights or
get the people of big towns like Oldham', where .So much .money wap spent i'll hollda.i's. to pay a little more for good mii'lk fr!im that district
ma.tlers would be iniproi-ed. They ought to look to fhei'r cattle aind if they had any trouble with dis-
■ eased
ca.ttle 'they ought to be weeded oiii-l. They should eTeuiilna,te- from all their stock any dkscaSed animals. If they cpuld not get railway compan-ies to reduce their freights they must try to get as much milk from- theiii- coiup ;i,< they possibly could. Milking po.war.s in cattle were hereditary and they ought tn- look for milking powers on both sides when, breed-i-ng their dairy (A.ppla.iise).
Mr. .A. Longworlh., lesp/xiiding thanked
Fr, PinninglO'ii for speaking so well of tlie AYlialley Agi'iciiluir;il
As.soctotion. He aiSh .sured them he wa.s pleased to see so mam-y people
pre.ient'. AATieth'er it was due to a wave of puH'iic opinion or not he could not say. but they had -iiM had that material suyi- port to the
pa.st which they desired. They liad got .an excellent show that day and he was
gl.ad to .see them raMyiiyg round the Society. He thanked those preseliiit, on behalf of commilttee .and officers, for giving their support to tire show .and hoped that in the future -the show would receive that su])- port which he fel.t it richly
deser.ved. (Hear liear).
Mir. J. R. .Asp'D-all proposiuigi the tqas.t
o-f the Judges said it was a mo'.st important toast. J uilges were a great necessity a.t shows a.iid they spsint a
gre.at amount of time .and trouble in lookiri.g .at the valrliious tvlribils and they did thelilr duly like men. .Amn.ii" the sei-dnleen judges, in tllie rait.a iogue he saw some well known names. The vairi.ous classes were well filled .’and the ex-
lliibi/ts were of very good quality, and he wais (•.ertaiin
th.it the judges would
ha.ve th'dir work cut out in findihg'wtoneis buthe hoped thev’ . would give "general safisf.ictibn to aill clatees. He coupled , with the

C jJ^ fe aQ E TIMES. FRIDAY.
SEPTTr.MTtTt^.p Mr. G. B. Camleyj one of the house
judges, .responding ,
s.iM, he aipprediated to the full the compliment paid to them. He refeired to the wilnner of the first prize Section 2 of Hackneys; and said that any
one interested to hackneys would at once
.see that that animal had u’nques,ti,opably great future before it. He congratulatied the owner, Mr. J; W. Astley, West Mar- ton, Skipton, on .possessing sucli a horse, whether it was his oivto breeding or whether he had had sufficient enterprise to purchase it, presuma,bly from th'e North of England He said that living he did in one of the largest agricultural Comities in the country he had been much struck of late years rviuli what he must tenm 'I’lie apatliy with Which agricultural matters had been dealt wntii by both sides of the House of Legislature. (Hear hear.) It was apparent to any think ing man that agricultural interests had been ishamefiiliy neglected by-a'H sections. (.Ap plause). They had seen a few attem,pts at meddlesome legislature in dealing first 'vith the quetstSon of small holdings, and a few years ago with 'the radlculous stitndard which had been set-out for milk. As legiA Jation stood at present with regard to miJk they were the absolute victims of circimr- stance. These questions were purely theoretical i,n. the mihds of a gjreat maiiiy legfelators and they could do wWi a few more practical men in the House of Com mons. Freedom of contract, he contend ed, was the key-note which .should predomin. ate between owner and tenauit; and that had been one cf the leading fea/tureb that had made this country the I’enffe of the
gre.al Empire it had become. (Applause). Proposing the toast of the President Mr,
H. C. WoTsley-T.ayliQr said the PJesidenit w,i)s a gj'to.d Olid friend of t'he .Associhrioiu. For between 30 and 40 yea,rs Fir.
