The attitude that should be taken toward the wild flowers is very effecâ€" tively presenied by the following from the Dominion Dept. of Agriculture:â€" "From early spring until late autumn, the woods, glens and open spaces of Canada are made beautiful by a sucâ€" cession of wild flowers, more varied and as full of charm as the best garâ€" dens can provide. In all this glorious profusion, however, lurks a danger. Unfortunately many of the citizens, particularly of the larger centres of population, never give a thought to the fact that there may all coo soon come simply had to home to prove that they grew in this North. che result that finally if there is too much promiscuous picking of wild flowers, there will soon be no wild flowers at all. This doesn‘t mean that wild flowers should never be picked. The real idea is to "have the flowrrs and keep them too." So long as thought and care are used in the pickâ€" ing of wild flowers, no particular harm will reslult. It is admitted that the temptation to cake some of the beauâ€" ties home is very strong. In addition there are odd and unusual flowers that add to the temptation to pick. For instance, there are sections of bush in the vicinity where there are orchids that a flower lover would feel he or she While it may not bse the wild fower season in this part of the North for a month or two, it is still well worth considering th: idea of conserving the Seatuties of the woods. There are scores of places in this immediate vicinity wheore wild flowers grow in great beauâ€" ty. Along the banks of the Mattagami river, for instance, each summer sees wild roses in bloom making the landâ€" scape beautiful indeed. Those who feast their eyes on these wild flowers are narurally tempted to pick the flowâ€" ers for adornment of the home. There are two things against this picking of wild flowers, however. PFirst the fact that most wild flowers perish very quickly when picked. ‘"‘They hardly last till you get home," as one lady once phrased it.
