THE EXHIBITS IN DETAIL.

In the north gallery OF the Agricul-

corner posts and other pillars which |
support a somewhat ornate roof. 1t
is one Of the most tasteful exhibits in
the building. Within are displayed |

other forms of maple products, such as
sap vinegar and maple confectionery.
The exhibit was arranged by the Yer
mont Maple Sugar Exchange of Brat
under the direction of Mr.. &. |
ID. Whitman. Welch Brothers of Bur
lington are also represented. The To-
cation of this display is excellent and |
the effect. as a whole and in detail, is |
very satisfactory. Mr.. Whitman is
also connected with concession near
the White Horse Inn where is sold to
all comers, sweet cider made upon the
premises in full view. also maple sugar
