Phenological Observations in Nova Scotia and Canada, 

 1904.— By a. H. MacKay, ll. d., f. r. s. c, Halifax. 



(Read ICth May, 1905). 



In Nova Scotia the public schools have been doing good 

 work in phenology. Over three hundred accurate and full 

 schedules of observations were sent in from as many school 

 sections representing every county in the province. These were 

 referred in groups to the following phenological staff for 

 examination, selection, and compilation ; and the criticisms on 

 faulty observations were published in the Journal of Education 

 for the benefit of observers in future years — from page 72 to 

 85 of the April issue, 1905.
