FIRST DIVISION. 



Sj^ecial Begulations. '' Entries for all premiums in this division 

 must consist of five specimens of each variety- exhibited and 

 (except Nos. 18 and 19) of at least twenty" correctly named varie- 

 ties. Entries for premiums Nos. 18 and 19 must be separate and 

 distinct collections, not embracing an}' other collection or specimens, 

 and in awarding the premiums regard will be had both to the quality 

 of the specimens and the value of the varieties exhibited. 



By ' named varieties ' is meant such as are named and described 

 in some standard work on Pomology, or have been named and 

 approved by some National or State Horticultural Societ}'. 



In adopting 20 as the number of varieties required in these col- 

 lections (1 to 17), the Society does not intend to encourage the 

 multiplication of varieties : and the committee will be instructed, in 

 awarding the premiums, to have regard to quality and value rather 

 than to the number of varieties, and will be authorized to recommend 

 gratuities for meritorious collections embracing less than the number 

 of varieties required as above." 



Premium No 1. For the best general exhibition of apples, grown 

 b}' the exhibitor in any part of the State. Miss L. L. Taylor, Lake- 

 side (Belgrade), first premium, $15; James S. Hoxie, North 

 Fairfield, second pi-eminm, $10 ; Perley & Perkins, Seward's (Vas- 

 salboro), third premium, %f). 



Under the practice adopted by the Society, of allowing all collections entered for 

 premium No. 1 to be also entered for the county premiums, all the collections were so 

 entered, and the names of the competitors will appear under their respective counties.
