H. Porter stressâ€" ed the frequency of floods, in recent years along rivers in Southen ard Western Ontario. This he attributed to the clearing of forest growth from the uplands and sources of the Grand and other rivers so that they no longer hold the water of the melting snows and early rains ca@using spring floods and summer drought. 15,000,000 trees were planted in Ontario in 1937.

Not being accompanied at the time by the driver, horse and sleigh continued down Birch street to First avenue, thence to Maple street. At the corner of Maple and First old Dobbin gathered speced and took the corner on two runâ€" ners, depositing the body of the conâ€" veyance in front of Urquhart‘s grozery store, slightly damagin: a car parked there and crushirg the top of the bread wagon. Relieved of most of his tburden the horse continued down Mapie Not a single paper started as much as half a minute late. On Thursday morning members were a little late in getting in and getting seated, but the convention was called to order and the programme started with members standing around in groups and stragelâ€" ing in the hall. It did not happen again. After that practically all memâ€" bers were in their seats when the meetâ€" ings were called to order, having learnâ€" ed that here was one gathering that met as announced and not at some inâ€" definite time later. It was a pleasure to attend such meetings, there and crushirg the top of the bread wagon. Relieved of most of his turden the horse zcontinued down Maple toward Third averue, with cnly the set of sleighs to hatuper progress. After crossing Third avenrue the runaway came to an abrupt end when horse and zgleighs became weaged between a truck and a pile of srow. The horse was not injured, though badly frizhtened. The car which started the unscheduled journey came out with a broken bumper: Mr. James Taylor, Asst. in Horticulâ€" ture, at Guelph, showed some lantern slides of English gardens including one of wild flowers, which are becoming very popular in England. Unfinished business. New business. Meeting of directors. In closing this report I wish to comâ€" mend, and to congratulate, in the strongest terms, the officers of the conâ€" vention for planning every number on an exact time schedule and carrying it out on that schedule. The subjects given for discussion were as follows: 1, Insect and disease control. 2, House Plants. 3. Alpines and Succulents. 4. Lillies, Dahlias, Gladiolus. 5. Trees and Shrubs Members gathered around whichever group they chose and moved freely from one to the other Your delegate spent most of his time at the first group and the balance at the last. Mr. E. Victor Grainger, a professional florist of Toronto, introdjuced his deâ€" monstration of "Floral Arrangement and Colour Harmony", by saying that the colours found next to each other in the spectrum harmonize best together. He then had brought on the stage, one by one, about twenty large bouquets of wonderful bloom, explaining the harâ€" mony in each, and the luse of contrast. He also explained and demonstrated the importance of selecting the shape and colour of the vase or container to harâ€" mcnize with motif of the flower display. National Flower Show Next we had lantern slides of the National Flower Show in Milwaukee in 1937 and in Baltimore in 1936, Inâ€" cidentally a of pu‘slicity was given to the National Flower Show to be held on the Exhibition Grounds in Toronto March 24 to April 2 of this year. This is the first time this show has been held in Canada. One illustration of the scale of this show is that one Toronto grower is planting 20,000 bulbs of one flower for display. Horse Bolts When Auto Hits Wagon and the balance at the last. During the barrage of questions, anâ€" swers and experiences I managed to jot down only a very few of the many important facts brought out. Many growers favour Fertilin, a commercial products, both as a fertilizer and rust preventive fo such plants as Delphinâ€" iums. A spray made of a desert spoon of nicotine sulphate, an ounce of soap in a gallon of water is best for aphids or lice. For rose midge use a mulch of tobacco dust one quarter inch thick. For information about insects or plants, which you wish to destroy or qultivate; send specimens of insects to department of entomology, and of plants to departâ€" ment of botany, to Agricultural College at Gueiph. Much Excitement ‘but No Casualties at Noon Toâ€"day Lieuterantâ€"Governor Present In the afternoon we were favoured with the presence of the Hon. Albert Mathews, Lieutenantâ€"Governor for Ontario. He said that during the five Mathews, Lieutenantâ€"Governor for Ontario. He said that during the five days his family spent in London. Engâ€" land, last summer, Mrs. Mathews spent three in Kew Gardens.

The idea of new form of enjoyment is that players will gather at the homes of different memâ€" bers to play whist. When the score has been added up, it will be phoned to the headquarters at the Legion hall, where the winners will be selected acâ€" cording to the best score. Naturally, the players at each hcouse will not know the score mads at the other houses, and this will provide "suspense‘" to the fun. The ladies who are entertaining on Monday eveningzg are Mrs, Shaw, of 41 Lauriecr; Mrs. Hardy, of 6 Transmission Line; Mrs. Kelly, of 161 Balzam street south, and Mrs. Devine, of 23 James avenue. The whist at the home of Mrs. Shaw will be for ladies only, while at the other three homes the parties will be both ladies and gentlemen. It is expected that this telephone whist drive will make a hit with all who take part, and all members and their friends are invited. the Cochrane Board of Trade some days ago that the government would seriously consider any bona fide sugâ€" gestion for its dovelopment by private enterprise.
