In giving in our report after inspection of vegetables and fruits 

 exhibited in class No. 3, we would remark that the number of 

 competitors appear to be fewer than in former years. 



The specimens exhibited however are unusually good, both as 

 regards quality and variety. 



We regret the absence of some articles to which special prizes 

 were to have been awarded ; we beg however to recommend that 

 those prizes be appropriated to the articles which have been sub- 

 stituted.
