PORTANT DECISION S.

Diiriiig the fore-iioon srssion,-_ The lfrc-sident referieil to the action of

BC0fIiui\U¢‘<~iifth€‘ Association, compo-ed of liieut.~Governor Howlan, the Secretary,

'.\lr. McCourt,ai;d liimeelf iii going to the

regular nieeting or the Prince Couniv Frui' Growers Association and inducing the meiiibers io unite with the general 9ocie\y,a.~suiiiing at the same time the little indebtedness of countv organization. Un iiioiioii, ilie action of this coniiiiittee was foriiially approved. It was also decided io send each ineuiber of the association the annual report of the Horticultural Society of Ontario, and the Horticuliurist,

Reverend Father Burke tlieu referred

to the oiiject of this spec al meeting and the necesnity of some practical aciionin te.~~ting the fruit of our orchards and gen tiiig that which lins in coiiiinercial value to a prolitatile market. The finances of the association were now in ri po~itiou io aid a trial sliipnient to England, the colii sicr age steamer was also at hand. and it was necessarytodetermim-_ now, how best to employ the funds of the association in promoting the interest of fruit growers. ln the absence of Treasurer Wise, who would be present later, he advised the employment of tlic intervening time in practical discussion. He called upon Mr.

iltiibertson, the veteran fruit grower of l

Inkeruiau,

Mr. Jthn Robertson, of Iiikermau Farm,

referred to scabbed and cracked fruit. This was in part due, he thought, to trees being planted too close together, and in part to shade and wrt weather. He had sprayed twice with the Bordeaux mixture with good results, except in the case of the Fameuse apple, but even such apples as the Wealthy had suffered this year. Mr. Roberzsou referred to the manner of pack- ing apples for shipment. Apples ought, in his opinion, Io be packed together as closely as possible to exclude the air. Apples ought to be pressed down in the barrel. for if not they would be bruised. He thought, as to the kinds of apples most suitable for export from this Province, that special efforts should be made to cul~ tivaie apples suitable to this climate and

not likely to scab. In conclusion he ex~ pressed his sense of the importance of the meeting and of devising ways and means

The President remarked that he had

the Fruit Growers’ Association of Quebec, y who declared that thc Wealthy apple l_ would certainly rind a sure market in the i Great Britain market; also the “McIntosh Red.”

Senator Ferguson, on rising, expressed

his appreciation of the work and import- ance of the As-ociation, and declared it io_ be his firm conviction that Prince Edward _ Island is destined to rival Nova Scotia in the production of superior fruit l-le had

orchard; and he had expert authority for } the statement that in size and bloom they comparid favorably with the apples exhib- ited in Halifax. He was satisfied that with the adoption of the improved methods of. the day as to spraying, we could easily i fight the pests which menace our orchards. For the .irst time he had this year sprayed ` his own orchard, following closely the formula laid down in the Experimental _ Farm`s repori,and was happy to say with the most iavorakle results. Senator il Ferguson then spoke of the necessity ot' ` producing those apples which wil' best suit the British market. He said that in Nova l ` Scotia orchardists were narrowing down instead of extending the list of' variefies produced ;aud in effecting this the science of top grafting was being geuer~ ally called into requisition, thus making use ict' the growth of trees producing unsuitable fruit He spoke ' also of the importance ot a proper pack~ age in which to ship our apples and thc manner of filling these packages, declaring that “ slack packed” apples were fatal to _ success. Colour counted for much iii the Brii.i~h market, and it was found that by grafting on the Red Astracao, a superior bloom coulii be obtained for the superior varieties. He also remarked upon the importance ofa good sauiple shipment and said that he had no doubt but siicli would _ prove acceptable to :he British consumer. and profitable 10 us.

Mr. -\ ise, the Treasurer of the Associa_

tion,having arrived submitted his report. The receipts, he stated, included besides the members fees a grant of $150 from the gov- ernment, which he had taken good care to

secure before Mr. Warburton left office.

On motion of Father Burke, seconded

by John Robertson the thanks of the As- sociation were accorded the government f i' having so far met the prayer of their form~

er petition.

Meeting adjourned until 2 o’clock.

There was a good attendance at the

afternoon session of the association. Matters of interest to fruit growers gener~ ally, and having an especial hearing upon the proposed trial shipment of apples toi England, were brought up bv Lieutenant Governor Howlan. His Honor ex-j pressed his belief, as the result 1 of a long experience, that Prince ` Edward Island could produce fruit second to none. He was glad tha.t,as the result. of ,- judicious advocacy, we now possess a ‘ number of first-class orchards and wasl
