A row of Whitesmith gooseberries at Maplehurst, was sprayed thoroughly in 1893, with Bordeaux mixture, excepting one bush. This year the whole row was sprayed, and all were clean except this one bush, the fruit of which was unfit to gather. Spraying, to be of any real benefit, must be done more faithfully than usual. The first applications must be made early in the season—the Bordeaux mixture must be made with good quality of lime, the pump must be a good one and the nozzle of the proper kind. These conditions observed, and first-class fruit will surely result, unless the soil is poor. The results of the experiments at Grimsby are becoming more and more marked, and a good report may be expected later on. An International Exposition of Fruit Culture will be held in St. Petersburg, Russia, under the auspices of His Majesty, the Czar, beginning Sept. 22, and closing Nov. 12th, 1894. The object will be to shew the present condition of Horticulture in Russia, and in other countries.
