means whatever of recouping itself for the outlay. It cannot, 

 therefore, be too strongly insisted that those who take an 

 interest in the Show and in the welfare of British fruit-growing 

 must help bear the burden by subscribing at least £100 towards 

 the prizes. The addition of new classes is always being urged 

 on the Council ; next year (1898) a new Division for market 

 growers is called for, all which makes it only the more 

 necessary that those who are interested in the subject, whether 

 Fellows or not, should join with the Council in providing the 

 necessary financial support for the Show. Subscriptions should 

 be sent at once for the 1898 Show to the Secretary, R.H.S. Office, 

 117 Victoria Street, Westminster. The following is the
