NOVA SCOTIA SHIPMENTS. 



Shipments of last season's crop of apples 

 were made by the United Fruit Growers of 

 Nova Scotia, Ltd., as follows: 



'London 155,813 barrels 



Liverpool 83,704 



■Glasgow 25,087 " 



Manchester 36,138 " 



Newfoundland 7,912 



Western Canada . . . 22,351 " 



Local Sales 41,836 " 



Local Consigned . . . 18,356 " 



Boston 2,096 " 



South Africa 1,008 



South America 12,000 " 



Total 406,301 



iPotatoes 64,405 



470,706 

 In 'the figures given boxes are included, 

 reckoned as three for a ^barrel. The frost 

 in the Baldwins caused a tremendous 

 shrinkage, and also caused many thousands 

 of barrels to be packed under individual 

 names, as the Company prevented, as far as 

 possible, any fruit thus affected bearing 

 the U.P.C. Brand. 



Recent bulletins and reports which have 

 reached The Canadian Horticulturist in- 

 clude the following: "Marketing Georgia 

 Peaches," by C. W. Baxter, being circular 

 No. 1 of the Dominion Fruit Division, Ot- 

 tawa. "Manures and Fertilizers,"' by Frank 

 T. Shutt, being circular 'No. S of the Domin- 

 ion Experimental Farm, Ottawa. The Cen- 

 tral Experimental Farm has also issued a 

 Summary of Results in Horticulture for 

 1914. It tells the story of results experi- 

 mentally achieved in all parts of the coun- 

 try and under varying conditions in the cul- 

 tivation of many species of vegetables, 

 fruits, trees, plants and flowers. Results of 

 hot-house as well as outdoor experiments 

 are detailed. Two other bulletins of tha 

 second series distributed by the Central 

 Experimental Farm are entitled: "The 

 Planting and Care of Shade Trees," by P. 

 E. Buck, B.iS.A.; and "Growing Field Root, 

 Vegetable and Flower Seeds in Canada," by 

 M. O. Malte, Ph.D., Dominion Agrostologist. 

 and W. T. Macoun, Dominion Horticulturist. 

 An interesting annooincement contained in 

 this latter bulletin is that the Dominion 

 Government is wiling to aid seed growers 

 by cash subventions, particulars of which 

 may be obtained from the Seed Branch, 

 Department of Agriculture, Ottawa.
