which requires that all nursery stock entering 

 the province must be inspected at Vancouver, 

 which causes extra freight charges and much 

 relay in delivering. In some cases, eastern 

 grown stock consigned to the Kootenay country 

 is leafed out before it arrives at its destination ; 

 as a result, it often fails to live. 



Competition is what the planters invite; not 

 a law that shuts such out. The effect of the 

 present law in British Columbia is to shut out 

 the nurserymen of Ontario and other eastern 

 parts of Canada, and to divert the trade into 

 Oregon and Washington. The nurseries of 

 British Columbia are yet too young to fully 

 supply the demand. 



The fruit growers' associations of Canada 

 should use their influence to have an inspection 

 and fumigation station established at Revel- 

 stoke. Only a few trees arrived here this 

 spring from Ontario, while two cars came from 

 the United States. Revelstoke is on the njain 

 line of the C.P.R. and is the gateway to the 

 upper country of British Columbia. It has rail- 

 way and steamship connections for all points. 

 Nursery stock for this large section of country 

 is distributed from Revelstoke. The place to 

 fumigate and inspect same is at Revelstoke. —

The Department of Agriculture at Ottawa 

 recently published a bulletin on bush fruits by 

 W. T. Macoun, horticulturist at the Central 

 Experimental Farm, Ottawa. It is exceedingly 

 well prepared. It discusses in a practical and 

 thorough way the culture of the currant, goo,se- 

 berry, raspberry, and blackberry, and outlines 

 the experiments with the fruits conducted at 

 the C.E.F., and the results.
