THE first and the great General International Show of the produce of the land will open on THURSDAY, 19 th Feburary, in the Agricultural Hall, Garden Palace. This will be not only a show of Agricultural and Horticultural produce and plants, but is meant to bring together for comparison and instruction every, article that the soil of these colonies from the tropics to South Cape can produce. Besides exhibits of cereals, fruit, sugar, tobacco, &c., the produce of industries already established, the inhabitants of all the colonies are invited to send the results of their local observation and experiments, such as indigenous gums, nuts, flax, indigo, barks for tanning, dye woods, &c.; also, native grasses, the different varieties of salt bush and plants used as pasture. Also the results of their experimental cultivation, chinchona, olives, silk, arrowroot, pepper, spices, &c., accompanied by information that may guide others until these experiments grow into extensive industries, for with a country extending from within 10- of the equator to the south end of New Zealand in 47 • S., with high mountain ranges throughout, and a coast line of over 3000 miles, there must be climate and soil suitable for the production of every article grown and consumed on the face of the earth. Only by experiment and comparison can the capabilities of the various countries, districts, and climates be learned, and it is earnestly requested that all will contribute their experience towards this result, one of the principal objects of the Commission in this show.
