EXPERIMENTAL FARMS 



9-10 EDWARD VII., A. 1910 

 weeds are propagated and spread, together with the most practical and economical 

 measures for their destruction. In the report of the work of the Entomological and 

 Botanical Division will also be found particulars of the experiments and observations 

 which have been made during the past year in connection with the apiary. 



The large and constantly increasing demand by the farmers of the Dominion for 

 the publications issued from the Experimental Farms, the rapidly extending corres- 

 pondence, and the readiness shown by farmers everywhere to co-operate with the work 

 of the Farms in the testing of new and promising varieties of cereals and other farm 

 crops, furnish gratifying evidence of the desire for information among this class of 

 the community, also of the high esteem in which the work of the Farms is held. It is 

 hoped that the facts brought together in the present issue will be found of much 

 practical value to the Canadian farmer and fruit-grower, and that they may assist in 

 advancing agriculture and horticulture in this country. 



I have the honour to be, sir, 



Yovir obedient servant, 



WM. SAUNDERS, 

 Director of Experimental Farms. 



To the Honourable 



The Minister of Agriculture, 

 Ottawa.
