spraying Trees With Poison.
There has been a good deal said
recently with reference to the charge
that American apples are- tainted with
poison used in destroying insects.
It has been pretty -clearly established
that Canadian fruit is tree from any
such defect. The advice however, of
Prof Penton of the 0 A College, is
well worthy of being carefully heeded.
He tells the fruit growers never to
spray trees in bloom. This is a simple
rule which can easily be prone in mind
and the observance of it, inay preserve
the reputation of Canadian fruit.' A
very 'littie poison may destsoy the
marketable value of apples although it
does not render them injurious. In

instance it was shown that eight tons
Wm Campbell,of North Main street,

on Monday evening. He was up in
an apple tree removing some of the
limbs, when he noticed a cow corning
into his lawn. In hurrying down to
drive out the cow, he missed his foot-
ing and fell head foremost to the
ground. He was stunned by the fell
and had his face badly cut, but was
not otherwise seriously injured.
