General Agricultural Show, New South Wales.

Colonial Secretary's Office,
Wellington, 23rd January, 1880.

THE following notification respecting a General
Agricultural Show to be held in Sydney, New
South Wales, is published for general information.
JOHN HALL.

INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION, SYDNEY.—GENERAL
AGRICULTURAL SHOW.

The first and the great General International Show
of the produce of the land will open on Thursday,
the 19th February.

This will be not only a show of agricultural and
horticultural produce and plants, but is meant to
bring together for comparison and instruction every
article that the soil of these colonies, from the tropics
to South Cape, can produce. Besides exhibits of
cereals, fruit, sugar, tobacco, &c., the produce of
industries already established, the inhabitants of all
the colonies are invited to send the results of their
local observation and experiments, such as in-
digenous gums, nuts, flax, indigo, barks for tanning,
dye woods, &c.; also native grapes, the different
varieties of salt-bush and plants used as pasture.

Also the results of their experimental cultivation—
chinchona, olives, silk, arrowroot, pepper, spices, &c.,
accompanied by information that may guide others
until these experiments grow into extensive indus-
tries, for, with a country extending within 10° of the
equator to the south end of New Zealand in 47° S.,
with high mountain ranges throughout, and a coast
line of over 3,000 miles, there must be climate and
soil suitable for the production of every article
grown and consumed on the face of the earth.

Only by experiment and comparison can the capa-
bilities of the various countries, districts, and cli-
mates be learned, and it is earnestly requested that
all will contribute their experience towards this
result—one of the principal objects of this Commis-
sion in this show.

For schedules, forms of entry, and full informa-
tion apply at this office, to Mr. G. S. Lang, Secretary
of the Agricultural Committee.
