THE CANADIAN HORTICULTURIST. 



in the centre was most attractive with its 

 exhibit of culinary fruits in glass jars. 



" The whole of this installation was erect- 

 ed by Ontario workmen," said Mr. Bunting 

 proudly, "and only at six o'clock on Satur- 

 day night did the workmen finish the work, 

 and then we had all the work of setting out 

 our exhibits still to do." Well it was credit- 

 ably done, if it was done in a hurry ; and 

 the apples, placed in cold storage last fall, 

 came out for the most part in perfect con- 

 dition. With the apples, some two hundred 

 bottles of domestic canned fruits in glass, 

 and an exhibit of pickles from Bow Park 

 Farm, Brantford, the fruit exhibit will com- 

 mand its full share of attention until straw- 

 berries and other fresh fruits begin to come 

 in.
