see such an exhibit of the products
Of old Giles. The great variety OF
excellent fruit-apples, peaches,
pears, plums and grapes-and the
highly creditable display of vegeta-
bles reminded our citizens, who be-
held them with laughing eyes and
keen appetites, that they lived in a
land of plenty-in garden spot of
the rth, where judiciOus cultiva-
ton OF the soil is ever rewarded by
abundant and luxurious harvests.
And the very pleasing impression
that could be made upon every
mind was that at least good pro-
portion of our rich lands, so finely
adapted to the production of an
endless variety of the most valua
BILE fruits and vegetables, is in the
hands of live, progressive and ju
dicious farmers. The display spoke
volumes in praise of the exhibitors
and was strong admonitiOn to all
farmers less enterprising to emulate
the examples of those who gave
such substantial evidence of sue
cess. In giving below the names of
the exhibitors we cite those whose
modes of cultivation may well be
patterned after. Here they are:
