The Fruit Exhibit in London, England, referred to on page 185, June No., according to a letter just received from Mr. Wilkes, Secretary of the Royal Horticultural Society, has fallen through for the present year. He will notify us farther should it revive for the year 1893. The reasons given for this, is the concentrated public interest in the general elections, in England, and represen- tations, made by intending exhibitors, that notices for preparations were insuffi- cient. A Visit to Canada's Veteran Strawberry Grower was made by the writer recently, to secure strawberries for the Chicago Exhibition. Snugly nestled away among the trees in a delightful rolling country, approached by a well-hedged carriage road, r^Ir. John Little, and his aged partner in life, have spent many happy years. Strawberries are his pets, and he has over eighty varieties. We were highly flattered, when he named his finest seedling, the Woolvcrton. It is a long way ahead of any berry we have ever seen. Every berry a monster and plenty of them. Letters from Russia.—We have lately received another valuable letter from Mr. Jaroslav Niemetz, our Russian correspondent. It deals with several specially hardy varieties of apples and pears, which he believes might prove of great value to Canadians ; as, for instance, the Panna, Princess, White Doyenne, Slutsk, Beurre Blumenback, Flemish Beauty, Nina (or Manning's Elizabeth), Liegel's Winter Butter pear.
