All the first mentioned seven exhibitors weie recommended for awards ; 

 the salmon exhibited by IST. Wikstrom, although good, was found wanting 

 in freshness of flavor. 



(C. M. Amundson, Udevalla, and Leidesdorfs manufactory of fishing 

 implements, Stockholm, had announced several objects for exhibition, 

 which, however, were not sent.) 



C. — France 



had of course the largest, finest, and best arranged exhibit of all kinds 

 of sardines, sardels, and anchovies hermetically put up in oil. The ex- 

 hibitors were principally from Nantes, L'Orient, Paris, Bordeaux, and 

 Belle Isle, and most of them were recommended for awards.

exhibited common sardels and other food-fish boiled in oil, and besides 

 a large number of preserved cuttlefish and moUusks boiled in oil with 

 tomatoes, truffles, &c., and finally dry-salted and hard-pressed sardines 

 in small wooden boxes, for poor people and therefore comparatively 

 cheap. The Spanish exhibits came from Corunna, Bermeo, Pontovidero 

 (Galicia), Loredo, Yelva-Grove, Kevera, and Barcelona; and the Portu- 

 guese exhibits from Lisbon, St. Ybes, Oporto, Faro Alga, and Cambra 

 Balbura.
