TOMATOES. 
‘REGHNA’: 
Is. 6d. & 2s. 6d. per packet post free 
This valuable novelty is early and very 
prolific; it sets its fruit well out of doors, and 
also under glass. The fruit is smooth, some¬ 
what round in shape, of beautiful deep colour 
and delicious flavour. 
From Mr. STEPHEN CASTLE, Ashford Yineyard 
“ Webbs’ Regina Tomato is the best variety I ever 
grew. It is a free setter—fruit of good size ; have 
cut bunches of 6 fruit that turned the scale at 
2 lbs. Its shape is very pleasing, and colour, with 
flavour, all that can be desired. In an unheated 
house it is also doing well—setting every flower. 
For all purposes, especially trade, this Tomato 
must be considered the best.” 
‘ SENSATION ’: 
Is. 6d. & 2s. 6d. pen packet post free. 
Very robust, exceedingly prolific, of rich 
deep-red colour, ana delicious flavour. 
From Mr. H. DUMBLE, Walthamstow.

Tomato. We had a packet last year, and grew 
the best crop in Walthamstow.”

^HE Earl’s Court Exhibitions. —It is a 
^ matter for grave regret that the prize- 
money won by exhibitors at last year’s 
exhibitions at Earl’s Court has not been 
paid. We excuse nothing, neither do we 
offer praise or blame. If, as may have 
been the case, the entire exhibition was a 
failure financially, then it is much to be 
deplored ; but it seems to be clear that such 
failure, unless the exhibitors were officially 
warned of the contingency beforehand, does 
not release the promoters of the exhibitions 
from their responsibilities. 
If it had, earlier in the season, become 
evident that the prizes could not be paid 
from out of the comparatively small 
takings, then, in all honesty, the series of 
shows should have been closed. All the
