Mr. H. N. Ridley’s special prize in this section w as won by 
Mr. Foo Wha Cheng, of Kuala Lumpur, for his collection of 
vegetables, the other principal exhibitors being the Land Office, 
Penang, with three firsts and one second, -and the Jugra District 
with one first and two seconds. 
The most representative classes were perhaps those for 
brinjals, purnpkins, watermelons and kladi, and it is perhaps 
worthy of mention that in the classes for such ordinary vegetables 
as beetroot, cabbages, onions and artichokes, no exhibits were 
entered for competition. 
Speaking generally, I do not consider that this division of 
the show was a very representative one. The plants and flowers 
are not of so much importance, perhaps, as the fruits and 
vegetables, and it is a matter to be regretted that the classes for 
them were not better filled. 
H. E. BYRNE, 
Hon. Secretary , Division “ BH 
Report on Division “ C.” — Stock and Dairy Produce. 
Sections i and 2 were cancelled a week before the first day 
of the Show, owing to the existence of rinderpest in Kuala Lumpur. 
Section 1 would have had some interesting exhibits, as several 
Europeans in Selangor and Perak had intended to exhibit. 
Section 3 only provided one exhibit in class 1. In classes 
2 and 3 there were no exhibits. In the classes for goats, 
classes 4 and 5, there were four and six exhibits respectively. 
All the exhibits in these sections, except one from Klang, were 
from Kuala Lumpur and’ district, and none of them call for 
special notice. One prize was awarded in class J, and two in 
each of classes 4 an cl 5. 
Two extra prizes were given for sheep. 
The Chinamen were backward in bring their pigs, owing to 
trouble of transporting them, keeping them under restraint, and 
feeding them on the show ground. The prizes would probably 
have to be increased in value to induce people to show their 
pigs, and I doubt whether, even if pigs were exhibited in large 
numbers, it would prove a great advantage or help on the 
purposes of the Show. 
In section 4, poultry, etc., there was a large number of 
exhibits. Far ahead of the rest were Mr. Fairer Baynes’ light 
Brahma fowls. There were many kinds and varieties of fowls 
exhibited by natives. 
In section 5 there were two exhibits of butter, both from 
Europeans, and several exhibits of eggs. 
There were also miscellaneous exhibits which it was found 
impossible to class under any of the scheduled headings, such as 
cats, plandoks, birds of various colours and sizes, and a crocodile. 
These exhibits excite considerable interest among the spectators ;
