The McIntosh Apple. ‘ ' (Experimental Farms Note.) Ever since the first orchard wasl planted at the Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, in 1883. the McIntosh‘ a ple has been under test by the xperimental Farms System and during that time much useful inform- ation has been obtained in regard to this fine variet . In very severe win- ters when the ameuse apple was in- jured, the McIntosh remained un- harmed, thus proving that it is hard- ier than that old variety from which it is supposed to have sprung. For a long time the McIntosh apple had the reputation of being a. shy bearer. but in nearly thirty years’ experience with it at Ottawa, it has been found to be one of the most productive varieties under test. The tree does not often hear very heavily, or overhear in any one year and then fail to bear the following year, but it is an annual bearer, asa rule, giving a good and medium crOp alternately, the number of small crops being few. Following are the yields of one McIntosh tree planth at Ottawa in 1890. the fiist yield heingrecmded in 189.9, the 8th year after planting. Some trees of this variety will begin to hear in the 6th or even in the 5th year after planting. The yields are recorded in gallons, but if it is desired to reduce them to bar- rels thereare 24 gallons in a standard barrel.

Rh" 33??" ”3“”: 0f the ff'mt' ‘t’ ‘8. b‘f'l C. W. Robb reported one day’s Owing to its very high quality and the great beauty of the fruit, it is be- lieved that the demand for McIntosh apples will be an ever-increasing one. There are many relatively poor apples of the same season still being grown which will have to, in time. give place to McIntosh. To-day there is no other apple which commands as high a price in Canada, No. 1 fruit being worth be- tween seven and eight dollars a bar- rel, and in years of plenty the price of McIntosh apples is relatively high. Although it is in good enough con- dition to be eaten in October, at Ottawa, it is not in its prime until November. Unlike the Fameuse which has a relatively short season when it is at its best, the McIntosh remains in fine condition until February, and in nod cellars keeps even un.il March. n parts of Canada where the autumn is warmer than it is at Ottawa it ripens earlier and does not keep so late. Following isa detailed description of this apple: It has been found by experiment that in Ontario. at least, the McIntosh is self-sterile, or. at least, practically so and to ensure a good set of fruit there should be another variety or varieties, blooming at the same time, growing near it. â€"_ A c n I O . .

Europeans in Waterloo Countv can ruin Kitchener and isolate Canadians of German origin from other native and adopted sons of the country that is the mother of us all and from the Empire that is the safeguard of our liberties. The future of Kitchener depends on the use that is made of the municipal victory gained over the British League. Canadians of British origin do not wish to be alienated from-such of their fellow- countrymen as are CANADIANS, NOT EUROPEANS. If the new municipal government of Kitchener behaves likea body of British sub jects andas Canadian citiZens should behave, hygones will be bygones. Canadians did not even want the name of Berlin changed until the Europeans in \Vaterloo County made the retention of the Prussnan name a token of sympatqy with German tyranny in this battle against British liherty. If that government attempts to 1e- store the name of Berlin 01' other- wise play the game of PRUSSIAN- ISM 1N ONTARIO. the authorities must act. If conditians demand. action should be directed against the rich and influential patrons and pro- motors of PRUSSIANISM 1N UN- TARIU, rather than against the do of PRUSSIANISM IN ON- T . IO.
