J.E. 
Threat Exhibition of British Grown 
** Fruit.— The schedules for the fruit 
show, to be held under the auspices of the 
Royal Horticultural Society, at the Crystal 
Palace, in September next, have again been 
distributed to those concerned. The 
general arrangement is much the same as 
last year, but in details there are some 
important alterations. The class for fruit 
trees in pots has been omitted and ap¬ 
parently will be unrepresented on the 
occasion of the forthcoming show, except 
the exhibitors, who formerly patronised 
this class, should bring up their trees as 
non-competitive groups. The expensive 
nature of getting trees to and from the 
show, combined with the late period of the 
year has always limited this class at the 
Crystal Palace; but visitors may possibly 
have the pleasure of inspecting fruit trees 
in pots all the same. Tables of fruit have 
hitherto been the nurserymen’s most 
favourite method of exhibiting at the 
Crystal Palace, and the six classes allotted 
to them last year have on this occasion 
been reduced to four, for 48, 32, 16, and 32 
ft. run of 6 ft. tabling respectively. We 
hope that the definite number of square 
feet allowed each exhibitor will not lead to 
the overcrowding of varieties on the tables. 
Fruit trees are allowed in one of these 
classes, and in the others a limit has been 
placed on the size of baskets which may be 
employed. In other respects the nursery¬ 
men are allowed a pretty free hand as to the
