I “ The Maclean pickles obtained the highest award at the International Exhibition 1882, against several of the principal English manufactures ; the highest award at the Canterbury Agricultural and Pastoral Association’s grand show, 1883; and also a latter highly commendatory from the President of the New Zealand Industrial Exhibition, 1883 and 1834 (no awards having been given).”—“ Professor A. W. Bickerton, Colonial A; ulyst, reports :—The pickles having been examined, were found to be well preserved, of good color, and perfectly free from adulteration. These pickles have been ia use in my own household for sometime past, and I consider them to be superior to those imported. The samples examined were purchased from a grocer in the city, and may therefore be considered to rep-e----sent the average quality.” —S. E.
