Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1889-10-02
Al THE FAIR.


At the territorial fair there is nothing
that can in the least approach the dis
play OF Santa Fe grown fruits made by
Mr.. Boyle. This exhibit was put in
place Yesterday, and it is to-day doubtless
attracting much attention, In every
respect the fruit is choice, superior in
flavor and perfect in coloring. This COM
prisos the chief attraction in the horLicul-
tural department Of the exposition. There
are also some fine apples from the new
fruit growing district along the Pecos
valley in Lincoln county, and also few
plates OF peaches and apples from Ber-
nalillo county. The latter county's grape
exhibit is most CreditAble. The Flame
Tokay, although Wilted because OF being
kept beyond its season for this occasion,
is very rich and luscious, and the ModOc
and Lntendal variety OF wine grapes are
very fine. Among other varieties in this
collection are the Chasselas de Fontain-
bleau and the Muscat Of Alexandra.
