AUTUMN SHOW

A FINE DISPLAY HIGH-QUALITY EXHIBITS Splendid Fruit Entries NOVEL FANCY WORK The biggest part of the judging in connection with the Hawke’s Bay A. and P. Society’s 31st. Autumn Show was done yesterday. Record entries were received, and the increases were general throughout the show. The increase in entries was accompanied in most cases by an improvement in quality, so that taken as a whole the show may well be described as the best autumn show the society has yet held. A pleasing feature is that not only are entries more numerous but that exhibitors also have come forward in much greater numbers than usual, aud from further afield. It is a testimony to the society’s popularity, showing how important the show has become in the eyes of outside exhibitors. The fruit, vegetables, bread, cakes, pastry, honey, the native industries section, and Women’s Institute classes were all judged yesterday, and combined to form a truly splendid display. The fruit display was a wonderfully fine one. Entries were more numerous than last year, and on the whole the quality was rather bolter. It would be difficult, almost impossible, in fact, to surpass some of tho magnificent displays of fruit which have been seen at this show in past years and which deservedly gained for the Hawke’s Bay Autumn Show the reputation of being the fruit show of New Zealand. This year’s show, if it does not surpass the best of former years, is well up to the standard of them. It is a show for the society and tho exhibitors to be proud of. The centre of the large produce hall was completely taken up with tiers of richly-coloured fruit of all sorts. The rich colouring is the outstanding feature of the apple section. In this respect the show more than holds its own with any previous show. The season has been a good one,for colouring, and nearly every exhibitor has succeeded in staging fruit of a more brilliant colouring than usual. Each year new names come to the front in the prize list, and the more experienced exhibitors find the competition of the newcomers harder to meet. FINE LOT OF FRUIT. The collection of dessert applet which won the first prize was a remarkably fine coloured lot, but the specimens of the four varieties sent in were all smaller than the average size of those varieties, and in that respect suffered by comparison with the second and third prize collections. In tho class for any other variety dessert apples two new New Zealand varieties gained first and second prizes. First went to Kidd’s Oro.ngo Red, a cross between Cox’s Orange Pippin and Delicious, while tho second new variety, called by its producer Bledialoe Cox’s, seemed to be a cross between the same two varieties. In the apple section were three exhibits for exhibition only, two richlycoloured new varieties—lmproved Red Cox’s Orange, and Improved Red Delicious—the third exhibit being a case of last year’s Delicious in splendid condition.

The peare. were also a good collection, though not quite up to the best of former years. Peaches were a very good lot indeed, there being hardly an indifferent specimen in the lot. A novelty in the shape of a very dark purple coloured, almost black peach, called Black Boy, was shown. It would be hard to find better specimens of the principal varieties of freestone and clingstone peaches than were to be seen at this show. Plums were not numerous, but of outstanding quality. The cased fruit was of the highest standard all through, and of a character to maintain tho high reputation Hawke’s Bay has gained in the outside markets, VEGETABLES SECTION. Tn the vegetables section it was generally conceded that no finer display has been seen on the ground. Each description of vegetable was represented by excellent specimens, and the winning exhibits in practically every class would hold their own at any show in the Dominion. The women’s section spoke for itself with a silent eloquence that was thoroughly convincing. In numbers and in a high standard of excellence the display has not been equalled at any previous show. It deserved the highest praise, and this was the more deserving in that, included amongst the exhibitors, wore many new names, but so good was the general average of the cookery shown, that the new exhibitors fully held their own with the winners of scores of prizes. FANCY WORK. the fancy work section was restricted to members of Women's Institutes only, but it lost, nothing by being so restricted. The whole display was as good as it was in many eases novel. Patience, skill, ingenuity and artistic taste of a high order have all contributed to make a most attractive ex- ! hibition. Each class contained a variety <>t novel, useful and well-made articles, but the class which claimed most attention was that for unspun wool deed with native dyes, exhibitors to state I plants used. This is an exceptionally I fine and interesting display. In the i first prize exhibit nearly 100 different shades were shown, while in the second prize exhibit were some shades not included in the other exhibit. The names of the plants are informative and add to the interest in exhibit Two * stands containing beme-growa farm

produce, handcraft work, painting and a great variety of other articles, were also shown by tho Women’s Institutes and are as attraction as any section of the show.
