Irrigation had died in having most of
the vegetables otherwise they would not
have been so torn nil Nearly of the

cauliflowers! One advantage has been
that there have been no spring frosts
this season to speak of but on the other
hand, cold days and nights bad after
mated with warmer weather There was
a fine display of flowers and in the fruit
line the tin rents of all colours rasp
