The Fair is to a great extent the barometer of agricultural progress in this district, and measures not only its productive development but also reflects the growth of what is usually called community spirit. Compared with previous exhibi- tions, the Fair now on produces a rather pleasing effect of warmth and colour on entering the hall. The fairly well filled tables of roots and vegetables, the long benches in the women's section crowded with an enticing display cof the most tempting dishes, and 'across the aisle the dainty knitt- ,ed and woven handiwork that one naturally associates with the highest types of womanhood-- all contrives to produce an excel- : lent first impression. But closer examination reveals the havoc wrought by untimely frosts, the limited production that follows a rather poor season of dry spring months and a wet, chilly summer. The grain exhibits are better than usual, but vegetables gener- ally are scanty in quantity, al- | though the quality is of the high excellence for which the district is noted. The total number of entries this year are nearly double that of last year; but the number of actual exhibits is disappointingly small in proportion. The School Fair Championship Section brings the average up most admirably. The exhibits here are the pick of the School Fairs in the District, and the various entries are highly credi- table to the young competitors. Below we give the list of prize winners in the School Fair Championship section of the exhi- bition. The highest number of points was scored by Gertrude Smith, Waldhof, 75 Minnie Reid, Dry den ...-43 The tremendous amount of work represented in the highest score the following dona- handed volun- competitors, tions have been {tarily to Mr Cook to be used at his discretion to reward merit: MS Campbell Loi 0 $5.00 W Wrench... 000 2.00 Swan Swanson... 2.00 John Trasiewicz .
