Dillon is chairman, are sending out letters to round up the exhibitors who are going to use space in the convention garden, a plan of which is shown herewith.

Space G is a space shaded by large trees and should be devoted to evergreens, shrubbery, etc. The other groups—A, B, C, D, E and F —are all open, level land, available for general exhibits.
