Files contain the first, third, sixth, and seventh (1913-1919) annual reports submitted by Peter F. J. Shaw, the superintendent of ground and gardens and horticulturist for the Nova Scotia Agricultural College.
Subseries contains annual reports of Nova Scotia Agricultural College departments, including engineering, grounds/gardens divisions, and Department of Plant Science between 1913-1996.
Subseries contains records relating to horticulture and landscape architecture of the Nova Scotia Agricultural College campus. Records include the working plan of plots, list of perennials, and tables of dates of sowing, plowing and working in vegetables plots for seasons between 1913-1916.
Subseries contains a collection of photographs used in the "An apple a day" exhibit held at the MacRae Library in 1998, highlighting the photographic glass slides found on campus that were believed to be taken by Fred Sears. Dr. Alex Georgallas was the acting archivist and curated the exhibit of prints of the Fred Sears glass slides. Most of the photographs center around apples and orchard practices and buildings of the Nova Scotia Agricultural College. Notes on some of the sleeves of the negatives suggest that they date from the period 1906/7. It seems likely that they are connected with courses taught by Fred C. Sears at the NSAC during this period.
