The Pavlov of Climate,
So far as climate is concerned
apples eau be grown cmmmernlally In
any part of old Ontario, south of 0
line drawn from Parry Sound to Ot-
tawa; in feet, there are commercial
orchards pt'oducingg fruit at a profit
considerably further north than this.
Many people think of commercial ap-
ple orchards as bring necessarily con-
fined to the milder parts of the pro-
vince, and to the lake districts, but
the fact is worth eniphasizing that
we have varieties of apples suitable
for commercial culture I11 0001y coun-
ty of Old Ontario, The winter hardi-
ness of the many varieties grown
throughout Ontario is now very well
established, and it le possible to se-
lect varieties which will be hardy for
any district,
The most serious climatfo difficulty
in the Province of Ontario Is the oc-
currence of late frost in spring, and
early frost in fall. Other difficulties
of a climatic nature can be largely
overcome by the selection of suitable
varieties, or by careful discrimination
with regard to soil, elevation, aspect,
etc. It may be pointed out, however,
that frosts are more common- and
more severe over large areas of flat
country, than where the topography
is rolling and hilly. Large areas of
some of the southern counties of On-
tario are, therefore, more or less un-
suited to commercial apple orchard-
ing because of their- flat character.
A more rolling country is much to be
preferred, so that orchards can be
made safer from frost by the better
air drainage afforded.
The choice of varieties for various
districts will be made the subject of
later notes.
Suitable Soil Lr Every County.
So far as soils are concerned, It
may be stated that there is an abuu-
dance of land in every county suitable
for apple growing. Well drained land
is essential for successful orcliarding,
and there Is plenty of soil of this
type to be had in almost every d1e-
trict.
Summing up Soil and Climate, It
may be said that no province or state
in North America has so Iarge an
area so favorable in soil and climate
for apple growing as has the Province
of Ontario. If this statement is true
It becomes obvious that the present
distribution of apple orchards In On-
tario is dependent on other factors.
Most Profitable Near Cities.
Transportation Is the most import-
ant factor having to do with the die-
tribut'on of commercial apple orch-
ards in Ontario. In other words, the
commercial apple orchards are locat-
ed within reach of transportation
facilities, and the better facilities
have been with relation to large ci-
ties and to the developing markets
of the prairies, the more rapid has
been the development of commercial
orcharding. A location near a large
city may be desirable, but tf better
soil and climate are to be found at
a distance, the more distant location
is likely to be preferred, provided
transportation facilities are good.
Some districts in Ontario possess
excellent conditions of soil and cli-
mate., but are lacking in transporta-
tion facilities, and until facilities are
available little development can take
place in commercial orcharding.
Labor Situation Very Acute.
At the present time the labor sit-
uation is acute, and is tendered more
so from the standpoint of the apple
grower by virtue of the emphasis
which, very correctly, is being placed
upon the production of exportanle
food stuffs. The labor shortage will
result in the majority of small orch-
ards being more or less neglected.
But the large commercial grower of
apples has been in difficulty for years
over the matter of labor supply. For
commercial orchard operations on a
sizable basis, it is necessary to be
within reach of 0 temporary supply
of labr for apple plc':ng. Otherwise
it becomes necessary to build dwell-
ings dor men and their families so
that a supply of labor may be always
available.
The difficulties of the labor situa-
tion at picking time can be lessened
considerably by the planting of varie-
ties which ripen in succession, and
by taking care to gel the right pro-
portion of each. A large area of one
variety ripening at one time is ex-
tremely difficult to handle. — Prof,

The Forehanded Beekeeper.
In March the careful bee-
keeper will find a great deal to
do in the way of preparing•next sea-
sou's supplies, All used appliances
should be put in the best of shape
and necessary new ones secured and
prepared before the busy spring sea-
son arrives. New supplies necessary
should be ordered at once, The bee-
keeper's supers are his barns, his bees
are his harvesters, and given barn -
room they will harvest his crop with
less risk of weather injury than farm-
ers expect in almost any other crop.
Without sufficient barn -room a per-
centage of the crop will be Jost. Cott.
tattlers sufficient tor the large crop
that may be expected next season
should also be ordered at this tithe.
This applies particularly to present
war -time conditions when supplies of
material are uncertain,
