\ "TEUTB BEFORE FAVOR." " PRIflCIPLEb NOT MEN.' VOI 33 No 37 Flesherton, Ont., Thursday April 9, 1914 W. H THCRSTON * f :- \ -1 t Will Take Up Experimental Work In Kimberley Valley Tlie Kimberley valley will shortly be favored with one of favn demonstration orchards to be establishi-d in the Prov- ince of Ontario by the Agricultural De- partment. The orchard will be leased for a term of probably t. n years. As a result of this intended taking over of an orchard under lease, the coun- ty agricultural department will not take i.]i any orchard there for demonstration tmrpuses this year. The plan is not yet fully completed, but The Advance has been informed that Mr. P. W. Hodaettt, head of the fruit blanch of the Depart- ment of Agriculture, is arianging to leaie n orchard iu the Kimberley Valley for a term of years with which to conduct ex- perimental work. It n not expected, however, that this lease will be made until next year, for the good and uttic:- ent reason that funds ar* not av.-iilable ' go ahead with it this season. This is in line with the experimental work being done at various points throughout the province, and it will be one of five orchards in the province so leued fur experimetitiil woik. One or two of these are aheady secured, and th Kituberley valley is positively booked for one (.f the five, but the lease, as we have said, will r.ot likely be made until next ye-ir, neither his the location been decided on, but it will not be difficult to get a good orchaid in that district for tho purpose required, where s.> many Hue or- chards already exist. The Kiiuoerley alley has raited peaches, mulberries, tender grapes, sugar cane snd other semi- tropical products and will ceruinly be a wod field in which to experiment, and the Department will make no mistake in inaugurating experiment; there. Jfo official announcement hs yet been made covering the above unnwuncemeot. Our information came by underground wirelenti and may be thoroughly relied upon.
