RULES AND REGULATIONS RELATING TO FRUIT AND VEGETABLE 



SECTIONS. 



In order to simplify the task of the committee whose duty it is to make 

 such rules and regulations and provisions as will result in fair competition 

 and the harmonious operation of the show, there is submitted here the most 

 important of those rules, which, if followed, would result in satisfaction to 

 exhibitors in these classes. 



RULES REGARDING ENTRIES. 



1. Intending exhibitors must give notice by duly filling in the proper form 

 (furnished, on application, by the Secretary) and returning it to the Secretary 

 not later than (three days before opening date of show). No entries will be 

 received after that date. Entries must be made in the names of the producers 

 or manufacturers, only by them or by their duly accredited agents. 



2. Entries must comply with the rules and regulations, and exhibitors 

 must conform with the requirements of their respective classes. This Associa- 

 tion recommends exhibitors to secure copy of the Department of Agriculture's 

 circular on " Exhibiting Fruits and Vegetables " for information on preparing 

 material for exhibition. 



3. Entries must be the property of the exhibitor. Produce should have 

 been grown by exhibitor ; and preserves, jams, canned goods, etc., should have 

 been manufactured in the establishment of the person exhibiting. 



4. All fruits and vegetables must be clean, sound, and properly prepared 

 for exhibition. The Association reserves the right to refuse acceptance of' any 

 entry, without stating reasons. 



5. All varieties of fruits and vegetables must be correctly, neatly, and 

 legibly named. Failure to do this renders exhibits liable to disqualification. 



6. All entries in fruit and vegetable classes should be staged by 7 p.m. 

 of (the day previous to opening day). 



7. On the entry of each exhibit, a card will be furnished the exhibitor, 

 specifying the class, definition, and number of entry, which card must remain 

 attached to the exhibit during the exhibition. 



8. The Association's officer in charge will direct the placing of all exhibits, 

 and exhibitors must strictly obey the instructions given. The Association is 

 responsible for having all entries in each class staged together. 



9. No individual member should stage more than one entry in any one 

 class, and no one exhibit shall be entered in more than one class. 



10. The Association will provide plates for all plate exhibits, and only 

 these may be used. Exhibits shall not in any way be allowed to carry any 

 marks that may identify their ownership, except in the case of district exhibits.
