Last week’s demonstration was held, notwithstanding the unfavourable weather, in the garden of Mr Dick, Gladstone road, Dalmore. The attendance was very good. Enthusiasts came from as far away as Cavorsham, Owing to the trees being very old, w«fy little time was spent on them. Instead, the cordon system of training was explained, which created a very deep impression on those present. Thanks were expressed to Mr Dick and the demonstrator for providing such an interesting afternoon.
