133 YORK COUNTY SOCIETY. 



When we take into the account the dryness of the ground, we cer- 

 tainly feel that great improvement has been made in this important 

 branch of agriculture since the foundation of this Society. There 

 "was no undue haste or delay ; but the whole performance was man- 

 aged in a business like manner, just as the farmer would go about 

 his own work in his own field.

Roots and Vegetables. 



On entering the Hall we came to the display of garden vegetables, 

 made by competitors for the best collection and variety of garden 

 vegetables. First in order was the collection of E. P. Dennett, 

 known for the success attending him in this department on previous 

 occasions ; here we find upwards of thirty kinds of vegetables, some 

 of rare and beautiful appearance, and all good specimens. We could 

 but particularly notice his variety of turnips; the yellow stone and 

 white being very nice, and we would recommend all to Mr. Dennett
