DIED TANTON -- In Oshawa, August 26th, 1922, Henry Tanton, in his 73rd year. 63-a There are twenty entries in Canadian National Exhibition competition this year, against 7 a year | ago. The judging will take place on Music Day, Thursday Aug 31. son of Mr. and Mrs. James the marriage; ngs of which gleams of brilliant olor can be seen in the sunlight-- »erhaps a bed of tuberous begonias, jome flaming cannas, glant castor )eans, asters with great plumed heads in white, and the many shades of red, mauve, and purple, or the glorious 'white blossoms of the hyd- rangeas. And above all the trees-- clumps of sturdy beeches just now "'oaded with nuts; evergreens whose branches sweep the ground, and shrubbery in pleasing variety mingl- 'ng with hollyhocks, sweet william, golden glow, delphinium, spirea, and lowers that keep a covering of bloom m the well tilled beds. Well Kept Lawns With all the trees and flowers, there are spacious well kept lawns, some with a delightful roll to them, ind others terraced masses of close clipped green. In the trees and on he lawns, martens and song birds thrive. Such is the approach to the Rose Jardens. In a place which nature seems to have reserved for just such 1 purpose as this, stands this crown- ing evidence of what man and Na- ure can priduce when they work iu harmony. One's first impression is of wonder that the richness such as lies hefore me could be hidden away on the lake shore. The trimness and clean- nes of it al are emphasized by the mirror pool with its arched sprays playing in the sunlight. White urns 'ontaining hoxwood trees stand sen- try at each of the short flights of white steps that lead from the high- er to the lower terraces.

The coliection includes many rarc species, and individual flowers and masses of bloom vie with each other in securing tue aamiration of the visitor, As the seazon advances the roses come and go, but through all these glorious flowers. the immense peony beds--now past bloom--and the dahlia and gladiola plantings. These latter are at their best just now. Persons who have been accustomed to thinking of dah- lias as tight little balls of solid red or yellow, have a wonderful treat in store when they see the dahlias at "Beecheroft." Delicate blendings and shadings of yellow appear in some of the immense blooms, while others are glorious masses of crim- son, or mauve or yellow of a won- derful clearness. . But after leaving this nature lov- ers' retreat and having viewed all the magnificent specimens of various flowers one must admit with Cam- pian, "Karth hath no princlier flowers Than roses white and roses red."
