VEGETABLES. 



There were eighty-five different lots of vegetables in the exhi- 

 bition of this year. Most of these embraced several varieties, 

 one as many as fifty-two, and another sixty-three kinds. The 

 onions and squashes were exceptionally fine. It is to be regret- 

 ted that the diameter of from three to four inches required by 

 the regulations deprived of their chances of taking the premi- 

 ums several of the smaller sized lots of onions which were really 

 finer specirnens than the lots which received the awards. I would 

 therefore suggest that the diameter required be changed from 

 three to four inches to from two and one-half to three inches.
