The fine display of fruit and vegetables greatly pleased the judge, who spoke enthusiastically about the exhibits coming before him. Considering the season, he said, the fruit, especially plums and apples, was wonderfully well grown and was fit to compete against produce from the strongest fruit-growing centres of the Dominion. The same remark applied* to must of the vegetables which were some of the best he had seen exhibited for many years.
