premises, His report was also destroyed 

 by the defendant. Information was laid 

 shortly after the occurrence, but on account 

 of the absence of an Important witness for 

 the defence, the case was remanded from 

 time to time. 



It is the intention of the Dominion Fruit 

 Branch to stamp out the practice of misre- 

 prssentation by falsely packing fruit. 



Cooperation in Ontario 



As a resuH of conferences held in 

 Toronto last month between Hon. 

 Manning Doherty, Minister of Agri- 

 culture, officers of the Niagara Peninsula 

 Growers, Ltd., and others, cooperative 

 apple marketing in Ontario will be encour- 

 aged this coming season to an extent 

 greater than since pre-war time, and it may 

 be supported by government aid in financ- 

 ing the establishing of central packing 

 houses. 



At the latest conference, Dec. 29, which 

 was attended by, among others, Lt.-Col. H. 

 L. Roberts and T. J. Mahoney, president and 

 general manager respectively of the N. P. 

 G., Ltd., it was decided that plans would 

 be effected this winter by that company to- 

 wards its offering to act as sales agent for 

 any cooperative apple association in the 

 province that desired the service. Condi- 

 tions would be laid down respecting grad- 

 ing, packing, the use of central packing 

 houses, etc., for the mutual interest and 

 protection of all parties concerned. 



Hon. Manning Doherty, who frequently 

 has expressed publicly his desire that the 

 great apple industry of Ontario should be 

 handled on a cooperative hasis, was strong- 

 ly in favor of the scheme, and stated that 

 his- department would aid its accomplish- 

 ment and its progress in every way possi- 

 ble. He announced that he intended to in- 

 troduce legislation at the coming session 

 with a view to offering financial assistance 

 in some form for the erection and estab- 

 lishment of central packing houses for the 

 cooperative handling of fruit. 



Dominion Fruit Conference 



Although certain papers, especially of 

 Toronto and Montreal, announced last 

 month a "Dominion Fruit Growers' Conven- 

 tion" to he held in Toronto, Feb. 9 and 10, 

 no definite announcement, with dates, re- 

 specting the proposed Dominion Fruit Con- 

 ference had heen §0ven out from the Do- 

 minion F;-uit Branch up to Jan. 5, the date 

 this issue of The Canadian Horticulturist 

 went to press. 



The delay has been due probably to the 

 change of government. As the new cabinet 

 was sworn in on Dec. 30, an announcement 

 from Ottawa may be expected shortly. It 

 is expected that the conference will be held 

 immediately after O.F.G.A. convention.
