Excerpt from Report of the Fruit Growers' Association of the Province of Ontario for the Year 1878 Let our future Executive Committee take another note for another paragraph in their incipient bill to form the basis of future legislation. It might justly be noted here that premature and diseased fruit from Ohio, and other States, anticipates our Canadian markets. These introductions lower the price of our Cana dian horticultural products. Our fruit-growers are thus deprived of the benefit accruing from being first in the market. Buyers will not give, a fortnight after the season has begun, the prices obtained easily at the opening. Our horticulturists are thus placed in the position, of being unable, in some instances, to meet their rents when due, in other, not able to meet their liabilities, and general depression is the consequence. You are well aware, gentlemen, that this is no imaginary picture. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
