(|'rom Our Own Correspondent.) BALCLUTHAi March 13, a HORTICULTURAL SHOW.
The annual autumn show was held today in fine weather, but the bad weather of-the previous day had its effect on the flower entries. There was an excellent display, at which the judge (Mr D. Tannock) expressed surprise. There was also a fine show of vegetables, but fruit was not so much in evidence as usual. A notable feature of the show was a long table covered with vases of cut flowers grown and exhibited by Mr John Sinclair, of Rosebank.
