Ontario Shore. The plain along the shore of Lake Ontario 
from the valley of the St. Lawrence to the Niagara River, extend- 
ing from the Lake on the north a distance of several miles inland 
to an escarpment of limestone in the neighborhood of 600 feet in 
height. The plain is broken up by a series of parallel hills — the 
drumlins of the geologists. It differs from the preceding district 
chiefly in the matter of soils. Several distinct types of soils to 
be found in the Ontario Shore district seem to be well suited to 
the apple. For most part the soil is sandy or loamy, easily drained 
and worked. Soil and climatic conditions are such that trees are 
large, productive and long-lived and the fruit is of excellent quality. 
The list of varieties is largely the same as that recommended for 
the preceding district.
