garden pease in bottles, besides samples of buckwheat, rje and tares in straw, and 

 cabbage aud turnip seed in bottles. There were also exhibited 55 varieties of named 

 native grasses, many of which are being cultivated on the farm; 16 sorts of culti- 

 vated grasses and clovers, all grown on the farm last season; 75 varieties of potatoes 

 and 4 varieties of onions. A collection of 15 sorts of turnips were sent down, but on 

 account of want of space were not shown. 



The exhibitions at Saltcoats and Yorkton, in the northern part of the province, 

 were also attended. As these exhibitions were held at the same time as others along 

 the line of the Canadian Pacific Eailway, it was impossible to reach more than the 

 above. 



I have the honour to remain. 



Your obedient servant, 



ANGUS MACK AY, 



Superintendent.
