This show, which is being run under the direction of the Kingston Hu- mane Society, is well worth one's while seeing. There are all kinds of dogs from poodles to St. Bernards. Many of the dogs are on exhibition for the first time, and for that reason they are so lonesome that their hearts are nearly broken. Two local ladies, who have their pets entered in the show, were so afraid that their dogs would be lonesome that they stayed with them all Wednesday' afternoon. One lady, after spending many hours with her pet, thought that she had better take the animai home, and was seen leaving the grounds with the "perp" on a chain Batches of puppies attracted lots of attention. Mound pups were offered for-sale at five dollars a piece and they found a ready market. One mau was heard to ask filty dollars for the dog that he had on exhibition. Ex-Ald. W. A. Twigg, who is in charge of the show, stated that the judging would take place on Thurs- day afternoon, and he expected the judges would be Melville Robinson, Thomas Carson, Allan Mooney, three. localdog fanciers. County School Exhibit. 'The tent which contains the county school falir exhibit is simply wonder: ful, and hundreds of people visited it and were delighted with the werk which has been accomplished by the children of the Frontenac schools. A. W, Sirrett, who is in charge of the exhibition, is certainly deserving of great credit for this excellent dis- play. One of the exhibits whieh caught the eye of many was the gar- den plot exhibit. In the spring, seeds are furnished by the agriculture de- ed to put in plots of vegetables: During the time that thé piots are growing the agriculture reptssenta- tive visits their home and makes his inspection. When the school fairs are held, the children are asked to bring the produce which is raised on their plots, any! prizes are awarded for the best. The first prize winners in each case are eligible to enter at the Kingston fair, and the best ones are given first, second, third, fourth and fitth premiums. - school No. 11, who bad Te staat on exhibition, MD eps.
