Prospects in England 



J. and H. Goodwin, Manchetter 



Crops in England and on the European 

 continent, which were at first expected to be 

 heavy, are now said to be only a little larger 

 than last year when the supply of apples 

 on this side was generally short. There is 

 no doubt under any circumstances that thert^ 

 will be a free demand in this country 

 again ' for good American stock, especially 

 red varieties, but as it is more than likely 

 that supplies both from the United States 

 and Canada will be large, early in the 

 season, high prices must not be looked for. 

 Our opinion is that after the heavy losses 

 suffered last year on stored fruit, growers 

 and dealers will be inclined to place their 

 stock on the market early. 



The trade in American apples in Man- 

 chester last season, compared with other 

 markets, gave very good results and we are 

 pleased to see that shippers are beginning 

 to realize more the important position this 

 port holds. The fruit auction sales held 

 here regularly, attended by the best buyers 

 from all the leading centres in this country, 

 and the quantity of foreign fruit of all 

 descriptions, shows a considerable increase 

 every year. We anticipate that the coming 



season will show an even greater advance 

 in shipments from America to Manchester, 

 most of our friends having expressed their 

 satisfaction with the results obtained her' . 



IMITATION PROVES THE 

 WORTH OF THE ORIGINAL 



The "SOVEREIGN" is the original hot 



'water boiler with "the larger first sec- 

 tion." It is this improvement that reduces 

 the coal consumption of the hot water heating 

 apparatus to an economical basis. The larger 

 first section is only one point of merit in the 

 "SOVEREIGN" there are nineteen other.

Coopers' Fluids 



Further evidence of the satisfactory results 

 that have been had from the use of the VI 

 and V2 Fluids since they were introduced 

 into Canada last spring by Wm. Cooper 

 and Nephews, whose advertisement appears 

 in another column, is given in the followiiiL' 

 letters : . 



Mr. F. G. Stewart, Homer, Ont. — "I used 

 your V2 Fluid on the aphids this May and 

 in a short time there was not one living 

 aphid to be seen. I have great pleasure, 

 therefore in recommending it to all my 

 friends and the public." 



Mr. S. E. Wallace, President, Burgessville 

 P>uit Growers Shipping Association, Bur- 

 gessville, Ont. — "1 used V2 Fluid on the 15tli 

 of June and am pleased to say that the tri < 

 sprayed are looking very healthy and tli 

 fruit seems quite free of spots or fungu- 

 Of course fungus may develop yet. I m;iy 

 say that the VI Fluid has killed the oystei- 

 sliell scale wherever it came into contact 

 with them." 



Mr. N. E. Anderson, Vernon, B. C. — "I 

 have used your sprays this year for all my 

 sprayings and have had excellent results 

 although some of the old hands have kept 

 saying, "oh ! it's no use." I have charge of 

 13 acres of bearing trees, apples, pears, 

 plums, cherries and prunes, and outsiders 

 say that they have never seen trees looking 

 better. No rust of any kind in orchard can 

 be seen, and as far as clean fruit goes, fully 

 90 per cent, will grade No. 1. One corner 

 in particular of 40 Starks has always been 

 scabby but this year there is very little 

 to be seen." 



A copy of the catalogue for bulbs for 1908 

 offered by M. Herb Naples, Italy, has been 

 received. All kinds of bulbs and tuberous 

 rooted plants are illustrated and descrip- 

 tions are published in English, German and 

 French.
