Arranged in Sloping Tiers, Exhibits
Are a Pleasing Sight
Competition for Prizes Is Keen and MANY Entries Are
Made--President Duniway of the Montana State
University at Missoula Speaks at
Night Session Tuesday,

Flanked with displays of red apples,
whose bright color formed pictur-
esque background, the speakers at the
afternoon session of the Montana
Horticultural society yesterday dealt
with particularly practical topics, and
the discussion which followed took the
form of general debate in which
opinions and experiences were freely
exchanged. From the standpoint of
those who attended to gain informa-
ton it was a decidedly successful
meeting. The gathering was shifted
to the opera house, which during the
forenoon was disarranged in the
preparation of the fruit exhibits, which
were displayed on the stage.
1t was pleasing sight that met the
eyes of the visitors. The stage was
given over entirely to the displays of
apples. The plate exhibits occupied
the center of the stage, being arranged
in long tiers which slanted toward
the Audience so as to be easily seen.
Boxes of apples showing the diamond
pack were grouped about and added to
the profusion of color.
Those who entered apples in
the contests up to last night were:

boxes first, 800 fruit boxes second for
