An Interesting Move for Supplies. 



The St. Catharines Cold Storage and For- 

 warding Company has recently purchased 250,- 

 000 baskets, witJi an option on 200,000 more, 

 getting 10 per cent, discount from the regular 

 price. Two carloads of apple and pear boxes 

 have also been purchased at very good prices, 

 enabling members to, procure these supplies at 

 very reasonable rates. New m.embers are be- 

 ing received continually, about five a week be- 

 ing the average for some time T>J.?t, at $50 each, 

 thus bringing quite a goodly rum into the so- 

 ciety's treasury. The comj>r.ny has a good 

 supply of wooden berry boxes and crates on 

 hand at the storage. Baskets, fasteners, bar- 

 rels and other supplies will be secured at lib- 

 eral discounts for the members who hold five 

 shares of stock. 



We arrangeu our first exhibition of fruit and 

 fiowers for June 28. This was the first event 

 of the kind in the history of the city, and no 

 pains were spared by the directors of the so- 

 ciety to make it a great success. — (S. Richard- 

 son, Sec. St. Catharines Hort'l Soc. 



A New President. — The members of the 

 Kingston Horticultural Society have chosen a 

 new president, the new officer being Col. R. E. 

 Kent, who was unanimously elected to fill the 

 vacancy made by the former president leaving 

 the city. Mr. Kent is sure to do well for the 

 society at Kingston, as he is much interested 

 in horticulture and has been a hard and faith- 

 ful worker in the interests of former shows. 

 He has one of the finest gardens in Kingston. 

 A meeting will be held shortly to determine the 

 advisability and probability of the society hold- 

 ing a show next fall. 



Broken Apple Boxes. — iMr. John Brown, in- 

 spector of the Department of Agriculture at 

 Glasgow, reports to the Fruit Division, Ottawa, 

 that a shipment of over 1,200 boxes of Cana- 

 dian Baldwins and Greenings recently landed 

 in that city with a large number of the boxes 

 broken. This condition of affairs seemed to be 

 due to the fact that the boxes were made with 

 only a straight dovetail, simply matched, as it 

 were. -^ne advisability of having the boxes 

 made with the regular fan-shaped dovetail or 

 else strongly nailed is therefore apparent.
