Every facility will be afforded for the transaction of business by taking orders, but no delivery of articles sold can be made on the pre- mises during the Exhibition. The Association will take reasonable precaution to ensure the safety of articles sent to the Exhibition, but the owners themselves must take the risk of exhibiting them, and should any article be acci- dently injured, lost or stolen, the Association will give all the assist- ance in their power toward the recovery of the same, but will not make any payment for the value thereof. At the close of the Exhibition exhibitors must remove their ex- hibits as early as possible. Any article or stand left in the buildings or grounds after this time will be at the risk of the owner. Horses must be shown uncovered, and in such a manner as Judges may require or allow and if exhibitors refuse to submit to the proper requirements of the Judges, their animals will be ruled out, but ex- hibitors will have the privilege of showing their animals in harness, to bridle or under saddle, as they may prefer. All animals competing for prizes must be brought out for the in- spection of the judges or for exhibition whenever called out by the official appointed to attend to that duty. Exhibitors who desire to take tiCir animals home at night will be allowed to do so on depositing $5 with the Secretary as a guarantee for the return of the animal next morning. If the animal is not returned by 9 o'clock next morning, the amount deposited wiil be forfeited to the Association. Exhibitors can ascertain from the superintendents of the several departments when the Judges n'ay be expected to examine their ani- mals or articles. No complaint or appeal based upon the statement that the Judges have overlooked animals or articles will therefore be considered by the Directors.

The Board of Directors, however, earnestly hope that exhibitors will not enter protests without the strongest grounds for so doing, as much un- pleasantness and annoyance is often occasioned by protests of a frivol- ous nature. No animal or article exhibited shall have about it any prize cole s or cards until the awards have been made in their respective classes. No person shall be permitted in the horse or cattle rings during the time of judging, except the Judges, the grooms, or persons in charge of the animals, and members of the press. All prize cards which have been affixed by the Judges must be dis- jlayed during the Kxhibition. Any infraction of this rule will incur the forfeiture of any premium awarded. Any person who shall attempt to interfere with or infliltnce the Judges while in the discharge of their duti( . or who shall at any time on the premises of the Association use any contemptuous or abusive language to any Judge in consequence of any award made by him, shall forfeit his right to any premiums to which he might otherwise b' "intitled, and shall be excluded from exhibiting for one year there- after. Judges are particularly requested to immediately report any breach of this rule. Upon the discovery of any fraud, deception or dishonest practice, either in the preparation, ownership, or of any representation concern- ing any animal or article exhibited, which may have affected, or have been intended to affect, the decision of the Judges, the Board of Direc- tors have power to withhold the payment of any prize awarded, and may prohibit any such party or parties from exhibiting for one or more years, and may also publish the names of such parties or not, as may be deemed most expedient. MVK STOCK. All stall doors must be left open so that visitors can inspect the live stock, between the hours of 9 a. m. and 4 p. m., and at such other times as the officers maj' find it desirable. Kxhibitors of thoroughbred stock must hand in the pedigrees to the Judges when examining the stock. (iood buildings are provided upon the grounds for live stock. Bedding and water will be furnished for horses, cattle, sheep and pigs without charge from the opening till the close of the PDxhibition, so that the stock may be taken to the grounds immediately on their arrival. Hay and grain for cattle, horses, sheep and pigs will be for sale on the grounds at lowest prices. Exhibitors will please report at once if unreasonable prices are exacted. The production of any animals in the horse ring may be ordered by either of the Committees on Live Stock, for review or other pur- poses, at any time during the Exhibition; and any attendant or ex- hibitor refusing to bring such animal into the ring when so required, shall forfeit his entrance fees and any premiums which have been awarded him. > n w 50 S n a w n X ?? n o n » ►i n a n P3 n r* n o r+ Ui -1 n n l-^ n Daii n H k1 > M n S w V. > n n o n •-I (A n p B n n JUDGES AND JUDGING.

No person will be allowed to act as a Judge who is in any terested in the articles to be examined. It is particularly requested that the Judges will not enter into argument with exhibitors as to the merits of their exhibits. It is desired that all Judges of each class go together to hand in their report, instead of sending it by one of their number, and to re- main together until their book has been examined by the Secretary or his assistants, in order that cases of error or doubt aiay be more easily and promptly made right. -I o i-l n> n way in- n Daily News-Advertiser, the Morning Paper of Vancouver and Westminster. / ao CAMPBELL'S CORNER....

Exhibitors must arrange their exhibits iu as neat and attractive a manner as possible, and neatly Ht up the space allotted to them, in default of which the Directors may cancel their entries and require the removal of the goods. Instructions have been given by the Directors that no bills will be recognized by the Society unless incurred by order of the Secretary. The parties will please pay particular attention to this fact. The Board of Directors reserve the right to prescribe the dimen- sions and regulate the position of all signs, and generally to direct the management of articles on exhibition, so far as the same may be neces- sary to secure harmony and an attractive appearance. Exhibitors will not be allowed to distribute about the grounds or buildings hand-bills or other advertisements that may cause a nuisance. Neat cards for that purpose are recommended, as they are more likely to be kept by visitors and not thrown on the ground. No exhibitor or attendant will be allowed to make uu.seemly noises, that may be considered a nuisance, in calling the attention of visitors to his exhibits ; and any exhibitor or attendant that may be guilty of distributing any advertising cards or other notices that may be considered immoral or objectionable by the Board of Directors, shall forfeit his space and all other privileges, and shall be removed from the Exhibition ground. The parties supplying refreshments at the restaurants must lay in their supply before 9 o'clock, a. "i. each day, unless under special un- avoidable circumstances, when permission must be obtained from the Secretary. If any person wilfuly injures or destroys any property within the Exhibition grounds of the Association, or hinders or obstructs the officers or servants of the Association, or any policeman or constable duly appointed, in the execution of his duty, or gains admission to tlte rules of the Association, he shall be prosecuted according to law. No award of a prize not offered in the list will be paid uuless sanc- tioned by the Board of Directors of the Association. The officers of the Association have the power to enforce these ruliis atid to prohibit and prevent all kinds of gambling : to regulate or prevent the huckstering or trafficing in fruits, goods, wares or mer- chandise, on the Exhibition grounds; and any person who, after due notice of such rules, violates the same, r-hall be liable to be removed by the officers, policeman or constables of the said Association, and be subject to the penalties. FIRE AND POLICE PROTECTION. The most careful and thorough arrangements po.ssible have been made to guard against fire. A telephone attachment will be had v.ith the fire hall; and with the precaution taken of having watchmen on during the whole night, the danger of the occurrence of fire is very remote; but exhibitors desiring insurance must give it their personal attention. An ample police force, detailed for the purpose by the city, will be on duty night and day during the continuance of the Exhibition. But exhibitors are expected to exercise constant .uptrvision over their articles on exhibition, as the Association will net be responsible for loss or damage by theft, fire or otherwise. vSmall and valuable articles should be exhibited in show cases, which may be securely locked when de- sirable.

In no case will any individual be allowed to pass through without first having deposited his ticket. Gate keepers will have to account to the Society according to the registration of these turnstiles. Separate gates will be provided through which all officers of the Association ami others provided with passes will be admitted. Imperative instructions are given to the gate keeper that he will not recognize any authority but the pass issued by the Secretary bearing the presenter's name and address in full. Tickets will be sold for 25 cents. Every individual entering the grounds will have to pay 25 cents each time of entering. Member- ship tickets will, of course, entitle the party whose name appears upon them, to admission, but not through the turnstiles. It is undesirable that parties with teams or single buggies should be admitted to the grounds, but in order that no disputes may arise on this point, the arrangemtnt has been made by which the following charge will be made: For single horse and buggy, 50 cents for driver and vehicle ; for team, jjSi. 00 for driver and vehicle. In the cases of both of these, all other occupants will be charged the usual entrance fee of 25 cents.

The Pacific Coast Province of the Dominion of Canada has an area of over 330,000 square miles. The principal in- dustries are lumbering, salmon fishing, salmon canning and drying, coal, silver, and gold mining. Halibut fishing also forms an important branch of the trade, and is yearly increasing. Cattle raising in the interior is carried on extensively, and vast tracts of land are u.sed for this purpose exclusively, returning a large revenue. The provincial output of lumber has reached an average of over one hundred millions of fe?t per annum. The output of coal is over 1,500,000 tons per annun. Nearly $100,000,000 of gold has been exported since the year 1858. The exportation of salmon, halibut, and other fish, has reached an average of over $1,000, 000 per annum, exclusively of the Provincial markets, and the carload shipments to east- ern markets, of the fresh fish, has become a most important branch of the trade. Until the last five years of its brief history, covering a period of less than half a century, British Columbia has been known to the world only for its great lumber products, its famous brands of preserved salmon, its gold mines, and its stupenduous mountains. From the year i860, the year in whi-h the Royal Agricultural and Industrial Society was formed, dates the career of this young Province as a producer of agricultural products, fruits, and the staple varieties from which the market gardiner reaps profitable returns for labor and money expended on the land. It is true that in the year 1875 the B. C. Agricultural Association was formed ; at that time the greater part of the agricultural, as well as the commercial interests of the Prov- ince, were centered in Victoria. The capital had been re- moved from Westminster there, and the Provincial fairs were invariably held in the new capital. In the meantime the rapid increase of the population of the rich townships on the Mainland, the settlement and clearing for agriculture, fruit growing and .stock raising purposes of the valley of the Fraser River, from the Delta to Yale, together with the incon- venience of Victoria as a centre, were causes which gradually 9i O > f n > w « Hi n « a > n p n n P o 73 n r* n n o 13 w r* •t n n n ffi (0 CO Daily News-Advertiser, the Morning Paper of Vancouver and Westminster. —28— :i[ ^ M C.

The soil is especially adopted for fruit raising, and has produced a great yield of root crops. It is intersected by two navigable streams, the Serpentine and the Nickomekl Rivers. Surrey is bounded by the Fraser River, Semiahamo Bay, the Delta line, the Laugley line and the International Bound- ary. A channel survey of the Fraser has been made, with a view to protect the banks from the washing away by the swift currents of the river. The Mud Bay canal will open another outlet for pro- duce from the rich lands verging on the Delta. It would be difficult to select a better opening for settle- ment than that afforded in the uncleared lands of the munici- pality of Surrey. Chilliwack has an area of 180 square miles, and containes a population of about 7,500. Lying 50 miles distant from the port of Westminster, it is the nearest district to the coast in which gold is found in the sand bars of the Fraser. This district contains undeveloped silver ledges and coal seams, limestone quarries and good brick clay, and is a famous local- ity for various kinds of game. This district produces some of the best samples of grain in the Province, and is famous for its fine production of fruit, roots and improved stock, and has the advantage of water and railway communication. L,angley covers an area of 100 square miles, and has a population of 3,000. It enjoys the distinction of being the oldest settled municipality on the Mainland, and one of the oldest forts of the Hud.sons Bay Co. in the Province. The soil is rich, and produces all kinds of grain and fruit grown in the Province, being especially adapted for apples and roots and, like most of the Fraser districts, abounds in large and small game. It has easy communication with the port of Westminster by way of the Fraser River and Great Northern Railway. Richmond is most advantageously situated between the cities of Westminster and Vancouver, and the Fraser River, and with its inexau.stably rich lowlands, and its famous facil- ities lor marketing produce, is destined to become the Hol- land of America. Large tracts of its richest alluvial lands have been reclaimed within the last four years, and what was then under water is now in fine garden order, and is especially adapted for meadow lands.

Maple Ridge has an area of 50,000 acres, and a popula- tion of nearly 3,000. It has a frontage of nearly 20 miles on the Fraser River, and its western boundary, the eastern line of Coquitlam, is about 17 miles from this port. It has the Fraser on one side and the Canadian Pacific Railway through its centre, and nearly every point of settlement in the district has a daily mail. It is drained by the Little Lillooet River, is well stocked with valuable timber, and contains some of the richest grain and meadow lands in the Province. The completion of the Pitt Meadow dyking works will open to ag- riculture a large tract of most valuable land. Coquitlam has a population of alx)ut 150, and is a young and enterprising municipality ; it has been gazetted about two years, and is making creditable progress in the matter of opening up its broad area for settlement. Its southern boundary is the Fraser River, and its further confines are the city lines of Westminster, the lines ot Burnaby, Port Moody and Maple Ridge. It is drained by the Coquitlam River, which is navigable several miles from its month, and is one of the finest troijt streams in the Province. -^-^s**^ Its settlements have easy communication with this city by mail and water, and with the seaboard at Vancouver by the C. P. R. The Coquitlam Dyking Commission are en- gaged in an important work of reclaiming a large portion of its rich meadows, which will be settled by farmers in the near future. In the centre of the district lies the source of the water supply of the Royal City, claimed to be the purest water in the Province, which is forced by immense natural pressure through eighteen miles of what has proved to be the most ef- ficient water system in the Province. Burnaby District is destined, perhaps, to become one of the most important corporations in British Columbia, situated as it is directly between the twin cities of Vancouver and Westminster, and although one of the latest municipal divis- ions has already a population of over 400. The old roads are being improved, and new ones cleared and graded. Through the western portion of the district runs a most efficient system of electric railroad, connecting the cities by little over 30 min- utes' time. The B. I. & F.

The vast advantages of the suburban situation to the cor- poration are already manife.st ; and as the cities prosper and spread, the lands of Burnaby will become proportionately valuable, not only for farming and gardening purpo.ses, but as desirable residence lands for business men of the cities. North and South Vancouver and Dewdney Municipali- ties are the youngest division of B. C. North and South Vancouver are suburban districts of the Terminal City and, with it. are striding ahead with sturdy .steps, as difficult to mpede as the tides of Seymour Narrows, and with the ad- vantages of their position with regard to markets at home and abroad, will naturally become important sections of the coast country. Dewdney has yet to be heard from, as the baby munici- pal divisions of the coast lands of the crown. She has the mighty Fraser for a roadway to the sea, and is less than 40 miles from the port of Westminster, and since her declara- tion of municipal independence is making heroic efforts at settlement. It is a fact, becoming eveiy year more apparent from ac- tual experiment, that British Columbia is especially adopted for hop culture, which is born out also by the report of Prof. Sharp of the Agassi z experimental farm. The officers, directors and members of the Agriculture Society, with the true interests of their new country deeply at heart, have earned, without laying claim to it, the undis- putable reputation of having made the organization a bene- ficial institution, and a marked success and have been the means of infusing a healthy spirit of friendly emulation in ag- riculture in all its various branches, as well as in Provincial manufactures and arts, into the constituents of the So- ciety and the community at large, which has already yielded a hundred fold in the fruits of beneficial results. The City of Westminster is the natural distributing cen- ter of the coast divisions of British Columbia, and is in touch with all the agrarian interests of the Province. It was, therefore, a wise move on the part of tb^.; pioneers of the Society, to sink all sectional sentiment, and for the common good to locate the Royal City as their permanent headquarters, and the point of Provincial exposition. It was a result of common accord that ample and com- modious buildings were erected in the largest and most happily situated park in Briti.sh Columbia.

Westminster, with its healthy situation, its splendid water supply system, electric lighting, which couipares favorably with any on the continent, its position as the point of intersection of the three great transcontinental railroads, the Canadian p£.:ific, the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern railways, with a near prospect of a railway and general traffic bridge over the Fraser River, the easyjfacilities of communication by water from end to end of the most fertile parts of the countiy, is most advantageously located as the hub of industry, and the centre of agricultural busint;:s. Added to its other advant- ages Westminster has a safe and rapid hourly comniunicatioi: with Vancouver, the future metropolis of the North Pacific Coast, and the commercial port and forwarding point for the trade of the Orient and the Australias. There are still further important advantages of West- minster harbor. Fresh water removes barnacles from ships, enabling them to make the best time. The tide does not inconvenience ships from loading. The teredo does not spoil wharves, and there is little wear and tear on them, and the city owns the water front, the water and lighting systeiis, and the ferrying trade of the Fraser. She controls also the affairs of the public market. Among her institutions are a handsome public library building, well furnished and equipped by extensive purchases and numerous donations. Large parks and recreation grounds, the largest and most attractive lacrosse field in British Columbia, and last, but by no means least, one of the finest bands west of the city of Toronto. The Society hope to make the Fair of September, 1893, a greater success than they have heretofore attained, and the executive officers are working like heroes to mark this year in the annals of the Societj" as the opening of a new and progressiue era in its history. Their efforts certainly deserve to be rewarded by success. While pay' ;g a grateful tribute to the invaluable services of the late Secre- tary, Mr. T. R. Pearson, in the past, it is only fair to say that this im- portant atjd responsible office is being ably filled by Mr. A. B. Mac- kenzie, th<' present Secretary, who is most ably assisted by the officers and directors for 1892. It is the intention of the celebration committee, now fully organ- ized, to offer s. considerable sum of monej', in prizes, to be competed for during the three days of the Exhibition. The programme, which will shortly be issued, will contain a com- plete list of events, and the respective committees.
