THE CULTIVATION OF APPLES.
Sirn,—In your issue of Apri] 10th, there appears an article purporting to be a re~ port of a lecture on Horticulture, delivered in Grenville Hall, April 7th, by Mr.
little amuse
Kijah Marke | wae not a j | while reading the repert ofthe lecture i am 8 incredulous. I know not whether to consider the ma‘te? asa skiton some lp -con—as the writer does not sign his | name r to take it for granted that it did | reilly bappeo. I do not know Mr. Marks
He may be w professor. He certainly ought
to be by the crowd that gathered to hear
his ‘‘oation.” I would not notice it but there are some statements
nthe article in question that sheald not vo broadcast over the land iu your reliabl: largely circulated paper without 4 | word of warning. For imstance, such bo-b, as to spare the old orchards, with their emall, green, sour, scanty fruit that a hog would noi eat, because our fore- fathers planted them. No, I would say to prune them out, rootand branch, with the eame kind of an instrument that our grandfathers used to prune with, viz ;a eix-pound eeel axe—mighty meno ia our grandfathers days, and they had ateel axes too,—and plant in their place the best varicties be had. Not the Gideon, bowever, as he recommends, which i a worthless apple for our climate. Although a fine looking apple, it has a water core, aud by the time it should be fit toeat, is rotten tothe skin. That is not the kind of an apple for the English or any other market. I am thankfu'I have only one Gideon tree, aod am getting clear of thatas fastasit can be grafted. In convereation with Professor Craig he said that in some parts of Ontario it did well, but our elimats was to moist for it, that it does oot do well in some parts of Untaric. I have had some gentlemen in my orchard from there and when they saw the Gideon they said “Oh, ho, Gideon, water-core, N. G ” Ihave repeatedly warned agents not to sei! Gideon to parties dealing with them. If it bas not this defect with Mr. Marks I wou'd like to know it. I do not know any- thing about the Gravensteins only that the nurserymen do not recommend them for our clmate. Ben Davies, isa) right, the best keeper we have. Again he mentions the Red MacIntosh. We don’t know it by that name which he says “requires the patiecce of Job to wait for ite cultivation” whatever he means by that; strange, he would recommend it,—but we have an apple named McIntosh Red, which comes nto bearngas soon as any of the late varieties, and so uer than some, and its is, [venture tosay the best apple grown on the laland for the English market. It has been sad that itis Jiable t» scale, but I have found tbistrue to a very emal! extent, aod am convinced that if properly spray- ed there wou'd not be a scabby apple io one bundred, Out of four btl’s packed for Eaglish market there was not more then one bushel of cull. ~scabby ones andall. Avother good feat- ure of this apple is that it stays well on the tree until fitto pnll. So impressed was Senator Fergu-con, | st fall, with the apperence of this apie on the tree, ts exellent quality and witha! so pleasing to the eye, that he ordered a large number of grafts. The Duchess is avother var- iety received without re,a dto numbers. Now as the Irish™m sn sad about the smelte ‘fab fire ave thim are very gude’ so with the Duchess, and only a tew.
We alo read thatthe learned lecturer raid that ‘‘from the growth of five trecs, by proper cultivation, in aterm of abou five veara he could provide work evough for 500 men.” if Mr. Marks could only be indneed to start this industry, I thiok it would stop the unparelled exodne that were d about, give our youog men em- ploymentat bome, cause an influence of immigrants, and and prosperity would abound.
