Stanton K.i;ii, Uic tuilvc >(-;n old son of 

 VV. J. Kerr of Ottawa, secretary of the Otta- 

 wa Hranch of the Ontario Vegetable Grow- 

 ers' Association, was accidentally kilied on 

 .Saturday, November 22nd. .iXt the tim of 

 the accident the father was in Toronto on a 

 lecturing- tour, and the mother had gone 

 into the city. Stanton had been riding one 

 of his father's horses. When he went to 

 alight his foot caught in one of the stir- 

 rups, and the horse became frightened :und 

 dashed off, dragging and mortally injuring 

 the lad, who expired in a few minutes. 

 Stanton wais in every way a promising boy, 

 and thi- highest hopes for a useful life were 

 entertained by all who knew him. 



Ontario Agricultural College 



The Fruit Growers' Short Course and 

 Packing School wil be hcJd at the Guelph 

 .Agricultural College from January 27th to 

 February 6th, inclusive. These short 

 courses are most valuable to experienced 

 fruit growers and also to beginners. The 

 date^ for the packing schools, which are 

 entirely separate from the short course pro- 

 per, are February 2nd to 7th, and February 

 9th to 14th. The instructors in Ixix aind 

 batrel packing wil be \V. F. Kydd and Mr. 

 Leslie Smith, of the Fruit Branch, Toronto. 



Those who may not find it convenient to 

 spend the entire week in the packipg school 

 may arrange for two or three days instruc- 

 tion in either the first or second week. 



British Columbia 



F.stimates made in the agricultural de- 

 partment at Victoria of the probable fruit 

 crop of the interior for 19)4 indicate that 

 the fruit crop, particularly of apples, will 

 be from one and a half times to twice as 

 large next year, as in 191.3, and one of the 

 largest on record. 



.AM records in the rapid transit of fruit 

 were broken in the shipment of two cars of 

 apples, which recently went forward to the 

 Old Country. The apples were exactfly 

 eleven days on the journey from Vernon to 

 Liverpool. 



The suggestion has been made that the 

 Provincial Government agricultural depart- 

 ments establish pruning classes in the var- 

 ious frait districts and it is said that the 

 departmemt is now giving serious attention 

 to this question. 



A resolution will also be presented at the 

 provincial convention urging the provincial 

 government to appoint a permanent official 

 whose duty it would be to conduct an edu- 

 cational campaig-n in various parts of Brit- 

 ish Columbia regarding cooperative mar- 

 keting and to aid in the formation of ar- 

 ganizations 



The provincial fruit pests inspector and 

 his assistants have been active during the 

 past year. In a recent fruit condemmation 

 in Vancouver four car loads of apples from 

 Hood River were condemned for codling 

 moth and sent back to the United States, 



The Vernom Fruit Union reports that 

 Chinese grow fully two-fifths of the vege- 

 tables handled by the Union.

Protect Your Property With 

 Peerless Lawn Fencing 



Ornamental fencing serves a dotihic pur- 

 pose. It not only enhances the beauty of 

 your prcmi.ses. but also protects it and your 

 children, as well. It keeps out maraudinit 

 uniniif's and tre.spassers. It protects your 

 lawn.s and flowers and always jfives your 

 prui>erty that orderly, pleasing appeara!>ce. 



Paerless Ornamental Fencing 



is the result of years of fence buildiiiR. It 

 is liuilt to last— to rcU'iin its beauty and 

 KHice for ye.Trs to come and should not be 

 confused with the cheap, shoddy fencini; 

 offered by catTlog- houses. Peerless fence 

 is built of strong, stiff wire which will not 

 sajf and the heavy gnWuinzmfi plus the 

 heavy zinc enamel is the best possible as- 

 surance against rust.
