THE BEEKEEPERS* REVIEW 459 



This Canadian National Exhibition is an annual affair, which 

 has been conducted for a great many years. In 1913 there was a 

 total attendance during the two weeks of about one million people. 

 Owing to war conditions, however, the attendance this year was a 

 few hundred thousand less than that, although it was more than 

 last year. As the entertainment features of the exhibit are very 

 small comparatively and are confined to the midway which is placed 

 off in one corner of the grounds, the educational value of this exhi- 

 bition on the whole is very great. 



Yours very truly, 



MORLEY PETTIT, 

 Provincial Apiarist.
