One. of tho most att.rac.livo exhibits in tho British manufacturers' section is Stand '11, which has been tastefully decorated and artistically arranged by tho British .Industries Co., .Ltd., of Wellington,* who descrvo special mention for their efforts lo uphold British supremacy in commerce.

The "Saltor" is a full-sized standard machine, perfectly visible, and the manufacturers, Geo. Salter and Co., of West Bromwich, England, aro to be congratulated on their efforts to compete with foreign, industries— (Published by Arrangement.)
