 C. B. Robinson of Pictou, in 1903, made the following report

" During the summer of 1902 Mr. Clifton D. Howe, of the 

 University of Chicago, discovered the Dwarf Mistletoe, 

 Razoumofshya ijusilla, parasitic upon Picea Mariana, at Bay 

 View, near Pictou. Subsequent search in that district has 

 shown that although it is rare on the whole, it grows in great 

 abundance between Pictou Landing and Eustico, upon trees of 

 every size; but of the one species (Black Spruce) over fifty 

 infected trees were counted."
