on the subject of the proposed reduction

filled up and it attracts a great many
visitors daily. An example of
the good results coming to ex-

the walnut exhibit of George Cole, of
Whittier. Another example was given
yesterday by Major r. H. Notion, of
Vernon, who had posted above his dis
play statement of the products of
twenty-acre tract during a year. He says
he has received ten or fifteen letters of
inquiry from various people who had
seen the display, asking for particulars
about the price of land in his vicinity.

ters organization visited the chamber
yesterday to make further arrangements
with regard to the model of Suffers fort.

will occupy conspicuous place in the
front of the hall. The building when
completed, will be filled with relics
taken from the fort, and will be cared
for by committee of ladies from the
society. 1t will prove an interesting adj
dition to the exhibit.
