The Australian Commonwealth was awarded a gold medal for the collection of produce. Professor Drummond, of Kilmarnock, who judged the cheese and unsalted butter, said the butter reached a good average standard. The prizewinners were quite outstanding in excellence, and as good as any he had inspected for a long time, the colour being bright and the texture close. The exhibits, generally, were attractively put up, and showed to marked advantage. As to the cheese, it was irregular, many being weak in body and deficient in flavour. The prize lots were very useful samples. The principal cause of the deficiency in quality had been an imperfect ripening of the milk, thus causing weakness in body.
