Book Description
Excerpt from Twenty-Sixth Annual Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, 1894 In rising to deliver, what falls to my lot tonight, the thirty-fourth annual address of the President to the Ontario Fruit Growers' Association, I feel deeply impressed with the truth of Solomon's affirmation that there is nothing new under the sun. After thirty-three of my predecessors have performed annually this task you may well wonder what there is left for me to say that has not already been said. My immediate predecessor had the advantage of most of us and especially of me in. Coming, as he did, both before and after the great Columbian Exposition. In his address two years ago he had the great exhibition in anticipation. One year ago he had it all before him in its magnificent fulfilment. Two years ago this Association had to consider what its duty was in connection with the fruit interests of this province at the great World's Exposition, and how best it could perform that duty. One year ago it need do little but talk of its achievements and the honors that it won there. And it will look back with pride to those achieve ments for many years to come.

Book Description
Excerpt from Forty-Fourth Annual Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, 1912 We have again gathered at our annual meeting to discuss matters of interest to us all. The season, that is now fast drawing to 'a close, has had its advantages and disadvantages. The extremely cold winter through which we passed has affected some of us seriously, but generally speaking, the season has been quite above early expectations. The great awakening that has taken place during the last few years in the scientific care of orchards, has born fruit in many districts that formerly produced little or no fruit. The campaign of education to the producer has shown its value, and many orchards which were formally an eye sore and a disgrace to the farm on which they stood are now its pride and delight. Not only are farmers showing greater interest in their orchards now planted, but they are planting out apple, peach, pear, and plum trees as never before. SO great is the interest of all classes In fruit growing and so rapidly is the area of orchards increasing, that it is very important that it should be guided along the best and most substantial lines.

Book Description
Excerpt from Fifty-Fourth Annual Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, 1922 It is with a great deal Of pleasure that we welcome you to our sixty-third Annual Meeting of the Ontario Fruit Growers' Association. We meet to-day under peculiar circumstances, having passed through a very strenuous season in which we faced conditions never before forced upon us. Questions regarding this will come up at our meeting to-day. In fact, the executive, in preparing the programme for this convention was careful in putting on our programme speakers who were prepared to deal with the different situations as we saw them during the past year. I am sure this will meet with your approval and that your interest will be held throughout the convention. We are glad to see so many of our old friends here to-day and to note the number of new faces. The apple season of 1922 was very peculiar. We had an excessively heavy crop of tree fruits, and when the apples were put on' the market they came in competition with the more tender fruits from the Niagara District, such as peaches, plums and pears, which militated against the sale of our apples. I made a number of visits to the Toronto markets, and I found on different occa sions the dealers were completely overwhelmed with the supply of fruits from the different parts of the Province. It was absolutely impossible for them to make satisfactory sales of any of these fruits because it was a matter of putting on the market a product which the people would not buy. However, we trust throughout the Province generally conditions have not been too bad and that the fruit growers have made a reasonable profit out of their enterprise.

Book Description
Excerpt from Twenty-Fifth Annual Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, 1893 I referred, last year, to my work in connection with the Ontario Fruit Exhibit for the World's Fair, giving a short description of the initiatory work then completed; I desire now to briefly refer to the continuation of that work and the final result as described by the judges at the close of their labors. On the 25th day of March last, I issued a circular to the Fruit Growers of Ontario through the channel of our Farmers' Instit.utes and Fruit Growers' Associations, urging them to take some united action in their separate localities, whereby their fruits might be fairly represented at the World's Fair, pointing out what seemed to me to be the most simple and at the same time most economical and effective plan I could suggest. In answer to this appeal I received a large number of very encouraging replies. I then had some two hundred cases made of convenient size for shipping fresh fruits in their best condition; these were forwarded to those points where action was being taken; they were filled with packing material and also a circular of instruction, how to pack and ship, together with forms of invoice, address cards, etc. These were returned again from time to time and served a very good purpose. I also pointed out in this circular that the quantity need not be so large, but the quality and regularity of shipments most important. I can now, as the representative of the fruit interests of Ontario on that occasion, tender my most hearty thanks to those who so nobly and patriotically, with the choicest fruits of their locality, assisted me to carry the horticultural banner of our province to such a successful issue, and that at perhaps the greatest exhibition of fruit the world has ever seen brought together. I think, sir, it will be readily conceded that Ontario had the largest exhibit of fruit, scored the largest number of points, rated the highest as to quality, of any exhibit on the grounds and in order to make room for our display several States generously con tributed a portion of their space. Washington Territory allowed us some forty feet along the centre passage South Dakota, twelve feet, and the N orth-west Territories some thirty feet, all of which was filled to repletion by the generous contributions of the fruit growers of Ontario.

Book Description
Excerpt from Twenty-Eight Annual Report of the Fruit-Growers' Association of Ontario, 1896 Spraying experiments were again conducted by the Department of Agriculture during the past year, and we expect valuable information from the report on this work. Now, it has been practically demonstrated to the fruit growers that spraying with Bordeaux mixture is an effective remedy' for all fungus diseases. We think a careful system of experiments should be conducted, either in a similar way or by the Fruit Experiment Stations, for destroying the Codling Moth. Great improvements have been made by the manufacturers of spraying outfits, and in answer to the numerous enquiries continually being made as to which spray pump is the most suitable for general use, the Board of Control of the Fruit Experiment Stations of Ontario decided to invite a public trial of spray pumps, which was held last April, at Grimsby. Eleven pumps were exhibited, each being required to use one barrel of the Bordeaux mixture. The pumps and their work was judged by H. L. Hutt and your President on a scale of points as follows.

Book Description
Excerpt from Forty-Third Annual Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, 1911 The number of new fruits of merit which are introduced each year is quite small. This is fortunate, in that fruit growers are not tempted to grow a large number of varieties. Many of them grow too many already without undue tempta tion. The time is coming, however, when there will be many new fruits of merit available for introduction, and there should be some plan worked out whereby the grower will be kept from planting any large number of trees or plants of a variety which has not been strongly recommended by some institution or society. The practice of cc-operative societies buying fruit trees for their members is a good one, as in this way the number of varieties grown in a district is limited, and only those most suitable for the district are planted. The reason why a large number of varieties Of merit will soon be available for introduction as that up to within quite recent years the development Of new sorts by the Experiment Stations has been carried on. In a very small way, and few things worthy of being grown in the best fruit districts have been originated. All this is changed, however, and fruit breeding is now an important part of the work Of the Horticultural Department of a large proportion of the fifty Odd Experiment Stations in the United States, and Canada also is doing, if not her share, at least doing something. Two States which are breeding fruits on a large scale are South Dakota and Minnesota. From South Dakota a number of new fruits have already been. Sent out and the Minnesota State Breeding Station, though organized but a few years ago, has originated some good things already. The New York Experi ment Station is beginning to distribute new fruits, and has already sent out some new apples, raspberries, and strawberries. The standard varieties we have to-day are almost all of them chance seedlings from the thousands of seedlings which have sprung in America and Europe during the past one hundred years or more, and it is scarcely-to be expected that anything as good will be Obtained from the limited number grown by comparatively few institutions and individuals for the especial purpose of Obtaining new varieties.
