WORK RECOGNIZED 



Mr. W. T. Macoun, Dominion Horticul- 

 turist, spoke on the extension of the work 

 in conection with the Experimental Farms. 

 There are sixteen of these farmci, and 

 several more in prospect, entailing an ex- 

 penditure of eight hundred thousand dol- 

 lars each year. In Mr. Macoun 's depart- 

 ment there are now four assistants who 

 are si>ecialists in their lines of work. These 

 include pomology, plant breeding, orna- 

 mental gradeniag, and vegetable growing. 

 In plant breeding there is a wide field in 

 the originating of new varieties hardy 

 enough for the latitude of Ottawa, and at 

 the same time equal to Mcintosh Red and 

 other standard sorts. Recognition has been 

 given by the American Pomological Society 

 to the work already done in originating 

 varieties. Mr. Macoun had just returned 

 from Washington, where he exhibited one 

 hundred and forty varieties, all of Cana- 

 diyi origin. For these he had been award- 

 ed a silver medal by the Pomological So- 

 ciety, an honor given only in cases of ex- 

 ceptional merit. 



COOPERATION ADVOCATED 



A paper on what cooperation had done for 

 fruit growers in Nova Scotia was read by
