The ministry of agriculture of Bosnia made a good showing for the 

 stations in that small country. The exhibit consisted of plans and 

 photographs of the stations and their work, specimens showing 

 methods of pruning the vine, varieties of grapes, and other viticul- 

 tural work. 



Mention has been previously made of the general character of the 

 experiment station exhibit of the United States (E. S. E.., 11, p. 001). 

 Although it occupied rather an unfortunate location, it was sought out 

 by a considerable number of persons especially interested in agricultural 

 experimentation, and was highly complimented by members of the jur}" 

 of awards. 



As a rule, the station exhibits were quite representative of these 

 institutions, collectively and individually, and brought them into 

 prominent notice as established agencies for the advancement of agri- 

 cultural science. On account of the extent of the representation and 

 the diversit}' of the exhibits, there were many features of general 

 interest to experiment station workers and of especial interest to those 

 who have taken an active part in planning^ and preparing such exhib- 

 its in the past. To those who were able to study the methods of 

 display which were followed by different countries, the exhibits 

 furnished some valuable lessons and suggestions which should be 

 helpful in the future.
