WINTER COURSES IN HORTICULTURE 



Each year since the estabhshment of the winter courses 

 the demand for special instruction in fruit-growing and 

 gardening has increased. The opportunities for profitable 

 fruit- and vegetable -growing on the comparatively cheap 

 lands of the east and within easy reach of the great markets, 

 are attracting capital and energy. It is in response to this 

 general demand and these opportune conditions that a 

 winter course in horticulture is offered. The various 

 studies included in this course are intended to help the 

 fruit-grower and gardener to manage his orchards and 

 gardens better than in the past ; to fit those who have had 

 some experience for positions of responsibility ; to give the 

 beginner the salient principles and acquaint him as far 

 as possible with the best practices of commercial and 

 amateur fruit-growers and gardeners the country over.
