Poultry Association Holds Half Year Meeting in Dunedin
The South Island Poultry Association met with M A Walker presiding, delegates from clubs attending. The Picton Club seceded and the Granity Club may not hold a show this year, cancelling the West Coast championship. A Plymouth Rocks case from Hokitika was referred due to ownership questions. The council proposed a show rule barring suspended entrants and a 125 pound art union fundraiser was proposed to aid the fancy. The West Coast Plymouth Rock championship was postponed until a sworn declaration is provided.
