The general quality of the above fruits was very com- 

 mendatory. Of these Judge Dole's bread fruit and pome- 

 granates, Mr. Weedon's Mandarin oranges and Mr. W. M. Gif- 

 fard's Wi fruits were particularly fine. The exhibition of Man- 

 goes and Avocadoes were noteworthy as being cultivated at 

 this season of the year. Among the more unusual fruits the 

 Yellow Sapota attracted much attention and was generally 

 admired. The number of Carambolas shown was somewhat 

 unexpected, although: there were some growers of this hand- 

 some fruit who were not represented. 



EXHIBITS NOT COMPETITIVE. 



The exhibition was indebted to ■Mr. Gerrit P. Wilder for a 

 most excellent series of plaster casts of mango fruit. These 

 ranged in size and coloring to a wonderful extent and formed 

 a very pretty and attractive series. Mr. Wilder has been for 

 many years one of our foremost pomologists and has done 

 much, not only to introduce new species of fruit to Hawaii, 

 but also in the development of improved varieties of mangoes. 



A magnificent exhibition of potted palms and plants was 

 displayed by Mr. S. M Damon, Moanalua, through Mr. Mcln- 

 tyre. These added a particularly attractive feature to the 

 show.
