The exhibit of plate apples at this meeting is especially 

 good so late in the season. The specimens to a marked 

 degree show greater care in growing, better spraying and more 

 careful selection for exhibition than in former years. 



Especially to be commended is the splendid exhibit from 

 the Connecticut Agricultural College, in which there are over 

 75 varieties, all well grown, of good size, splendid color, and 

 free from blemishes. The apples from Westland Farm are 

 also of very high quality and well grown. Many single plates 

 show remarkably well grown specimens, particularly of Bald- 

 win, Mcintosh, Sutton, Roxbury Russet and Northern Spy. 



Practically no scale-marked specimens are on the tables 

 and less apple scab was noted than in former years. 



A few commercial packages of apples show that in the 

 near future Connecticut boxed apples will be a feature on the 

 market. 



Respectfully submitted, 



Wilfrid Wheeler, 

 Committee of Awards.
