Tlio Facto • of Climate. So far as climate is concerned apples can be grown commercially in any part of, old Ontario, south of a line drawn from Parry ficuud to Ot- tawa; in fact, them aro ear.Iioercial prehards protluciu ; f:•t,:t at a Pros. considerably further nerilt than this.

The winter hardi• ness of the many varieties grown throughout Ontario if; now very well established, and It is possible to se- lect varieties which will be hardy for any district. The most serious climatic 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 iargtai overcome by the selection of suit5bie 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 severeeover large areas of flat country, than where the topography is rolling and hilly, Large areas af some of the southern counties of On- tario are, therefore, more or less un- suited tie commercial apple orchard- ing because of their flat char: etrr. A more rolling country is much to he preferred, so that orrbarthi can t:; made safer from frost 1)y- th; better air drainage afforded. The choice of varieties for various -districts will be made the subject of later notes. I` t:itttor`C Miss Bertha 141 Marshall has returned . Suitable Soil In Every County. n So far as soils are concerned, it may be stated that there Is an abun- dance of land in every county 'suitable for apple growing, Well drained Iand is essential for successful oreharding, and there is 'plenty:•of soil of this type to be had in almost every dis- trict. Summing up Soil antlo Climate, it may be said that no province or state in North America has so large an area so favorable In soil and climate for apple growing atthas the Provinces of Ontario. If itfi, statement is true it becomes obvious that the present distribution of apple orchards in On- tario is dependent on other factors. Most Profitable Near ('dies, Transportation is the most import- ant factor having to do with the dis- tribution of commercial apple orch- ards in, Ontario. In oiler worsts, th^ commercial apple orchards aro locat- ed within reach of transportation facilities, and the better facillticr have been with relation to large ei- ties and to the developing markets of the prairies, the mare rapid has been the development of commercial orcharding. A location near a largo city may be desirable, but irtlettn soil and climate are to 1-o faun 1 et. a distance, the more distant locailni is likely to be, preferred, provide. transportation facilities ,arc good Some districts 1n Ontario peas" - excellent conditions of soil and el - mate, but aro lacking its ttan -perta- tion facilities, and until facilities are available little development ca n take place in commercial oreh tt dine.
