Tbe turnips are very good, and are better tban might have been expected, considering the season. la the Field Turnip competition there are 23 entries for the four classes, which is much better than last year, when there were 26 entries fer Biz classes. As baa been already stated, no pains have been Bpared to achieve something more than a mere local success, and fine weather is alone needed to bring together a very large number of visitors.
