The effects of the spring growth of Sep- 
tember | have been demonstrated this 
month at shows held throughout the 
length and breadth of the State. In 
nearly all the country displays the effect 
of the dry season was very apparent. In 
the suburban area, however, some excel- 
lent exhibitions have been held, in spite 
of the unusual changeable character of the 
weather and the prevalence of insect pests. 
It cannot be said that they surpass the 
corresponding events of last year. Subur- 
ban shows- were held at

were divided amongst Messrs. Ei. A. Tolley,

RANFURLY. 3 
HE residence of Mr. William Kuhnel, 
at Brougham Place, North Adelaide, 
is a type of the ever increasing number of 
suburban residences to the City of Ade- 
laide. With the architecture of the build- 
ing we have little to do other than to say 
that it is quite in keeping with the up-to- 
date style of villa that looks good, com-

looking towards the city. Bagot Street, 
which runs down the whole length of the

the Oval to the: heart of the city. Our 
special reason for introducing the garden 
at Ranfurly” to our readers is by way of 
illustration to show what a single season 
can do in transforming a piece of waste 
ground, or, to be more correct,a piece of 
ground lying waste, into a garden of real- 
beauty. About eighteen months ago this 
ground carried an old-time cottage, with 
marsh mallows, weeds knee deep, with all 
the residue of stable litter, kitchen waste, 
tins, and all the habiliments of a rubbish 
tip. Now, inthis incredible short space 
of time, by the apposintments of skill and 
artistic taste we see a splendid house sur- 
rounded and terraced with a delightful 
garden, where the people passing by cast 
lingering Jooks of pleasure. Now just 
here is where we can introduce the typical 
Australian ‘characteristic of liberty and 
freedom, which made a happy combina- 
tion with the strain of German hospitality. 
Both faculties are stronly developed in
