The poultry display is a won dertn l exhibit Most cf the bi rds shown belong right here in New Iberia and the exhibit ex ce eds the expectations of 9 out of IU who see it. The varieties of chickens are many and inter esting. I t is an exhibit which compares very favorably with those of recent county fairs of near-by towns tor the past few years.

The lives tock exhibit is large and comprehensible. Some of the specimens would take a bine riobon anywhere.

It is a common remark—“ I didn’t know Iberia could get up such a fine show of industry In so many lines.” We have the goods. We sorely have. And our people have been taken grea t in te rest in making the Show a blue ribbon winner.
