Items of Interest 



There is not much doing here as good fruit 

 is scarce. Home grown fruit nicely packed 

 brings good prices to those fortunate 

 enough to have it. Alexanders bring one 

 dollar per box. Baxter one dollar fifty 

 cents in Charlottetown from our own mer- 

 chants. Alexanders keep well here and 

 pack nicely. The Baxter is specially good 

 in flavor this year. — J. A. Moore, Hazel- 

 brook, P.E.I. 



There has recently been organized in 

 Tibonburg a Fruit Growers' Association 

 with a membership of about fifteen which 

 number is likely to be largely increased in 

 the near futuj-e. We are fortunate in se- 

 curing for president, Mr. A. L. Soott, a 

 gentleman of great influence in the com- 

 munity and one who has had large ex- 

 perience in municipal matters. 



He has recently purchased a farm and 

 intends to plant 40 acres to fruit, apples, 

 cherries and peaches. We are also for- 

 tunate in securing for Secretary Treasurer 

 a graduate of Guelph Agricultural College 

 in the pereon. of Mr. G«orge EUio*. — R,
