Items of Interest 



In the report of the election of officers for the 

 Ont. Hort'l Assn. that was pubHshed in the Dec. 

 issue, a number of names of directors were 

 omitted. They are as follows: Jas. Guilfoyle, 

 CoUingwood; Robt. W. Woodroffe, Woodstock; 

 A. Alexander, Hamilton; and J.,T. Rose, 

 Brantford. - - - :^ — — - — — ^^ 



The Bowmanville HortT Soc. is working hard 

 to exceed this year the last year's membership 

 of 93. During 1906, a number of interesting 

 lectures were given by prominent speakers. 

 Some of these lectures were of such interest to 

 school children that the school authorities allow- 

 ed the children out early in order to attend the 

 lectures. - " — z — ;r""E' 



The exhibition of colonial fruit at the Royal 

 Horticultural Society's Hall, in London, Eng., 

 during the first week in Dec, attracted consider- 

 able attention. A huge display of apples from 

 B.C., which was awarded the society's gold 

 medal, obtained favorable notice in the press, 

 as did a smaller N.S. exhibit, which got the 

 Knightian silver gilt medal. Silver medals were 

 bestowed on individual growers. 



The Ottawa branch of the Ont. Veg. Grs. 

 Assn. met on Dec. 1, and elected the following 

 officers for the ensuing year: Pres., Duncan 

 Smith, Ottawa; vice-pres., P. Parissien, Cum- 

 ming's Bridge; sec.,T. Mockett, Billings' Bridge; 

 and director on provincial board, F. W. Williams. 



While in London the other day, the writer 

 was particularly interested in the many improve- 

 ments made by the Spramotor Company in the 

 interests of the fruit growers. The products of 

 the company are now used in nearly all coun- 

 tries, shipments destined for England, Russia, 

 Cuba, New Zealand and far-away India were 

 ready and in progress. Their trade now war- 

 rants their catalogue being printed in French, 

 Spanish and German, besides our own tongue. 

 Orders from 10 states and provinces coming in 

 one mail were shown the writer. Their Ameri- 

 can business at Buffalo now equals the Can- 

 adian, although only quarter the age. They 

 deserve credit for their enterprise.
