Horticultural Exhibition 



In connection with the Ontario Horticul- 

 tural Exhibition which will be held this 

 year in the St. Lawrence Market Arena, 

 King St., E., Toronto, the county exhibit 

 promises to be of special interest. While 

 the number of counties is somewhat re- 

 duced from a year ago, and some of the 

 best counties are not represented, those 

 remaining have in many cases increased 

 their grant. Huron county has a^ain voted 

 $75 for their exhibit, and those in charge 

 state that they will far surpass the show

 products to the show. 



The Oxford county council refused th^ 

 request for a grant this year, but tlianks to 

 the generosity of Mr. J. C. Harris of Inp'-r- 

 soil, the county will again be represent 

 Mr. Harris has collected the sum of !f-j. 

 which is necessary for the prize list, an 

 is in addition doing all he can to proniuii 

 the exhibit of fruit from this county. 



The St. Lawrence Arena lends itself par- 

 ticularly well to an exhibit of this kind. 

 The entire show will be on the one floor 

 and not divided as was required in Massey 

 Hall. The entrance to the Hall, will be 

 beautifully decorated and altogether the 

 show promises to far surpass any previously 

 held in Toronto. 



Fruit Packing Appliances. — Tht .-jitcr -^nful 

 fruit packer is always looking for ways of 

 improving the condition of his fruit when 

 it reaches the market. He will miss no 

 opportunity and will spare no pains in in- 

 vestigating methods and appliances to pre- 

 serve his fruit in transit. Competition is 

 becoming so keen both in the home and 

 foreign market that it is only the careful 

 packers who can hope to be successful in 

 obtaining good prices. Nowhere will be 

 found a better or more complete stock of 

 these appliances than that of Thos. Gain & 

 Son, whose advertisement appears in an- 

 other column. They are Canadian agents 

 for G. P. Read of New York, and can meet 

 your every need with goods of the b ft 

 quality and at reasonable prices. They will 

 be pleased to go into this matter with you 

 at their exhibit at the Canadian National 

 Exhibition.
