In addition to the foregoing, a further consignment of useful and ornamental 

 ti-ees, shrubs and vines was received this fall from the Central Experimental Farm, 

 also a case of flowering bulbs, containing 1,700 bulbs ; from the Experimental 

 Farm at Indian Head a thousand asparagus plants, and from a nursery a hundred 

 of another variety, all of which have been carefully planted. There are now alto- 

 gether over 500 different varieties of fruit, and more than 400 varieties of useful 

 and ornamental trees, shrubs and vines, making a total of nearly 1000 sorts. 



Fifteen experimental plots of fall wheat were sown in the autumn, and two of 

 rye, all of which at the present time are looking well. 



There is now ready for crop, exclusive of what is sown with fall grain or in 

 nursery, about 70 acres — making in all about 90 acres. 250 fir trees and stumps 

 have been taken out besides the birch, alder and other brush with which much of 

 the land was thickly covered. Ferns have given a considerable amount of trouble 

 in the newly reclaimed land, but it is hoped they will be got rid of in a year or two 

 by frequent hoeing during the season of growth. 



The short-horn bull and cow are both in good thrifty condition, and during the 

 year a very fine calf has been added to the stock. 



FOWLS. 



Most of eggs laid by the fowls during the spring and eaily summer were sold 

 for hatching. There are a few chickens of the following breeds : — Wyandottes, 

 Iloudans and White Leghorns. The Houdans and the Wyandottes began laying 

 earliest.
