An apparatus for estimating the densities of liquids, another for calculating the rate at which water passes through various forms of soil, scicnlilic devices to show the effect of acids and alkalies oil each and (lie compatibility of fertilisers are among the many interesting and instructive items on display. Cabinets and other woodwork articles occupy a prominent position and go to show how the pupils in this class are (aught to work in a practical way in addition to learning the theory. Products of the pupils’ la hour in the school plots, make a good .showing and the exhibition is a pleasing one. HONEY.
