this part of Kent, and it is doubtful whether any other part of 
the county has seen its equal. lu a competition of this character 
is illustrated in a striking manner the value of co-o])eration and 
combination. Any number of members of one society may 
contribute to the collection which that particular society intends 
U) enter ; thus, while one man may have better ])otatoes than 
another, someone else will send cabbages, another man onions, a 
third will supply the flowers, and so on, until the collection is 
complete. And where competition is keen, every effort will be 
made to stage vegetables which may be as near perfection as 
possible. All these qualities have been brought to the front by 
Mr. Cannell’s competition, and the benefit ought to be felt 
throughout the length and breadth of the county in an improved 
and higher grade cultivation of garden produce. The competition

is tending in this direction. Every year it becomes more difllcult 
to win the title of “ Champion A'’egetable growers.” This year 
the s'truggle was of the keenest description. Time after time did 
the judges revisit thi.s or that collection in calculating the points 
for eacl) respective exhibit. The chances that the belt would 
remaiu at IMilton were extremely rosy. Others said that it would 
( 
go back to Eynsford. Some feared danger Crom the Gravesend 
and Noi'thfleet distiict, while, again, there were otliers who 
thought that Tunstall W'ould not be far off ; indeed, a few people 
sarcastically intimated that Tunstall had ab’Ciuly won the belt-
