Last Day of the Fat-Stock Show at the Exposition Building. Award of Prizes for the Best ‘Display of Fine Beef. The Hereford Breeders Walk. OH with the Honors of the Show. - The final.day of the Fat-Stock Show was un- marked by anything of spzcfa! interest beyond tho awards in the classes for sluughtered beef. ‘The event attracted quite a large crowd of resi- deut butchers, and the friends of the exhibitors who bad entered animals for this prizo were on hand to.witness the critical examination of the meat. Tho catcusses were cut down by the same butchers who" killed: and dressed them on Thursday last under the sunervision of Mr. Rudolph Webber, of this city, They were cut down in quarters, and weighed, after which tho meat was cut up and placed upon tempor- ary tables for the purposes of examination. More than usual interest centered In the award- fi of tho prizes, as tho slaughter test of excel- Jenee was. the yrand crowning feature of the entire show. ‘be judes were carefully chosen, aud seemed to appreciate tho responsibility of their position. ‘The examination was. carried on slowly and carefully, the color, texture, and fibre or the meut being a point of excellence not eusily de- termined. There wasn variety of opinions ex- pressed as to whether or not the presence of 30 much fat was not 1 fault, but the prevailing opinion was that the-beef. was In every respect | the nearest approach to perfect butchered stock ever cut in Chicago. z Inthe J-year-old class the first premium was awarded te the carcass of the grade Hereford steer Broadborns, owned by tue Hon. C. M, Cul- bertson, of Chicago, whu also turried oif the prize in'the grand sweepstakes with the same rear-old class &e premium went very rvedly tv the carcass of tho grade Short- Hort steer owned and: entered by Davey Graut, of Potersbt urd County, HL huss there was no opposition olored and marbled carcass of a -Hereford™ rade owned by Mr. H. S. Bur- leigh, of Mechanicsville, Ia. It will be seen that so far #s the linal test of merit is concerned that the Herefurd men HAVE WON TIE NONORS of the show, and this has resnited trom judi- civus teeding und most execiient care. ‘The tort unate Victors were of course very much elated in cansequence of their signal victory, and con- in upon them throughout sratulations poured the day. The following table gives the result of the slaughtering ot ‘Thursday: «Hide tri 17° AS compared with Inst year’s tigures cho table discloses the fact that while the cattie were not ‘sO ubnormully tat, the meat was altogether pre- ferable for block Durposes. ‘The carcasses have been sold to Chicago butchers. cds made during the day, although at lute: the show ‘animals were brought into the ring for the inspection of visitors, woo manifested great interest in the proceedings. Many brevders were. seriously Alarmed on account of the vold rain and cutting wind of Friday. and at once lef: for home to look after their stuck. These. sudden changes of weather are severe upon youns- stock not properly sheltered, and often result in great Jossea to their owners. The consequence was that the great majority of yesterday's visitors were eity people. UNDER THE SUPERVISION of Mr. Samuel 1. White, of the Fifth avenue market, the seven steers entered by the Hiinois Industrial College were slaurhtcred yesterday ‘afternoon. As has been previously stated, th cattle were brought tu the. exbibivion as the re- sult of an experiment, wherein it wus des to show what could be done In the way of feed- ing animals of the four breeds represented upon the same kind or feed. Mr. White bought the entire berd, and will oifer thom for sale over bis counter: ‘fhe xnimuls were a hizh grade of stock, and the carcasses when dressed presented a fine appearance. : Mr, White states that In his opinion the two grad@ Short-Horn steers were altogether the Dest for murket. purposes, showing a greater proportiqn of lean meat to gross meat than tha other entries. ‘The fourth annual Fat-Stock Show has closed its dvors, und within 2 day or two the stock waich during the past,week bas been the source of great interest to thousands of visitors will huve been sold or seut to the hoines of the vuri- ous owners, Instead of questioning the feasi- bility-of continuing these shows, us was the cuse last year, the State Board are’ deterinined to offer greater inducements to. the breeders and feeders of the country, to the end that future exhibitions will possess auditional attracuons and bring to this city breeders who bave here- tolore fuiled to enter tho various riugs in the contests for -premiums. In order to be able to carry out’ this design, it bas become necessi to expend much more money than in years pust. The board has aguin failed to pay expenses, but _nevertholess will continue its efforts to cducate the people of Chicago to x proper appreciation of the impor- tance of these yearly events. They already bave assurances from leading citizens of thar hearty support, and in all probability several enterprising business-mea ot the city will otfer grand special prizes of such value as to bring Out a much larger list of entries next year. The show closes Iu a bluze of glory so far as fair trextment on. the part-of We officers is con- cerned. Exhibitors leave with nothing but en- coniums for all these gentlemen, and will eo- Geavor next year tu outdo any previous efforts on their part. : és CLYDESDALE HORSES. The following report in reference to the adoption of a standard of excelleace for Clydes- dule hurses was consid at the recent mncet- ing of the American Clydesdale Association held in this city. ‘The report is calculated to do much good in cailing attention 10 this popular breed of draft horses, and eliciting discussion which wil! enable horse breeders to determine the comparative merits of the Clyaesduies. fhe report was drafted by Mr. E.
