Toronto Cooke

 

This report on the Toronto Observatory was published in 1884

The Toronto Observatory in Canada is chiefly of an educational character, but it has been celebrated as one of the chief magnetical stations in the world, the chief magnetic quantities being continually photographed there. In this capacity it is sending out two of its staff to make a magnetic survey of the neighbourhood of the Rocky Mountains where they pass into British Territory.

A very complete equatorial by Thomas Cooke and Sons has recently been erected here. C Carpmael Esq., is the Director
