The various stalls were well laden and those in charge must have been well repaid by the successful results achieved, the large stocks being readily disposed "of. visitors, especially the fair sex appreeiatiiiß the general quality and daintiness of the very attractive presentation.

The display of spring flowers was one to attract, and please, and on Ibis occasion the Coast grown flowers showed to distinct advantage there beiim some verv line blooms shown, especially, by Afr A. B. Spiers of Kutnarn, Air A. B. Boyd and Air . •Selby of Kailieri. The former succeeded in winning the prize for the champion bloom with a very fine specimen.
