THE CANADIAN HORTICULTURIST 



August, 1910 



Tone Is 

 Always First 



Tone Is the most 

 important feature of a 

 piano — because, on the 

 quality and permanency 

 of tone, depends the 

 value of the piano. 

 The magnificent, singing tone of 



New Scale Williams 



Piano 



unapproachable In swoetness. mellowness 

 and majesty— is possible because the 

 New Scale Williams Piano not only is 

 more heavily stning on its massive plate 

 and scale than other Pianos, b-.it also 

 because of the Harmonic Tone Prolong- 

 ing: Bridge which prevents the Intro- 

 duction of faulty and imperfect tones. 



If your home needs a piano to complete 

 Its cozlness, perhaps our plan of buying 

 a New Scale Williams on easy payments 

 \Mill interestyou. Write for full particulars 

 and copies of our Illustrated booKlets.

 nection he points out that during 1909 there 

 was imported into the city of Vancouver

 apricots, quinces and plums, every pound of 

 wliich could have been grown in the prov-
