BULB AND PRODUCE SHOW. The sixth annual bulb and produce show was held in the hall on Saturday afternoon, but owing to the inclemency of the weather and lateness of the season, the display of bulbs was very poor, although entries in the other classes were as good as usual. The show was declared open during the afternoon by the president, Mr. J. Watt, who apologised for the absence of the Hon. J. Cobbe, who was unable to be present. In the evening the programme consisted of competitions and dancing.
