Credit is due to those per- sons who freely contributed to this exhibit, as for example, Mr. Arthur W. Peart of Burlington, who sent in a sample branch of each variety of currant he had in his collec- tion as experimenter, and Mr. Stanley Spil- lett, Nantyr, for a collection of nineteen var- ieties of gooseberries, some of them mag- nificent in size. Many of these the writer put up in glass bottles for a permanent ex- hibit throughout the season. Mr. E. B. Stevenson of Jordan Station, also sent in a fine collection of bottled strawberries, put up in kerosene. The following is a list of some of the other exhibits and exhibitors, viz.:— Gooseberries.—T.
