that while there were net quite ~
many plants and flowers On DIS
play as last year, the specimens ~
this years Show were Of more
careful and professional selection
and were exhibited much more adj
vantageOusly.
The two most interesting exhlb-
its, from the points Of view Of
visitors, were Of course the trop-
ical fruit and vegetables and the
seeds and seed pods Of tropical
trees and plants. Beth o. these
displays were awarded blue I'D
bons, and they were excellent IN
every respect.
