I have been a reader of The Canadian 

 Horticulturist for the past year. I con- 

 sider it a magazine well worthy of a place 

 among books, magazines and papers on 

 fruit and general horticulture, and well 

 worth a dollar. I have noted with interest 

 the great advancernent it has made during 

 the past year, and wish it double the suc-

A book that should be obtained by those 

 who purpose planting bulbs this fall, is 

 the 1908 bulb catalogue of J. A. Simmers. 

 This catalogue, like all other catalogues 

 published by this firm, is full of valuable 

 suggestions and lists of the best bulbs and 

 plants for fall planting. Mr. Simmers men- 

 tioned to our representative recently, that 

 they have never had a better quality of 

 bulbs than those that have recently been 

 received from Europe. This catalogue will 

 bo found to be one of the most complete 

 and comprehensive lists of bulbs to be 

 found in Canada, and will be sent free to 

 those intending to plant this fall. 



The Fall bulb catalogue of John A. Bruci^ 

 & Co., Hamilton, Ont., has just been issued 

 and will bo sent^. free upon request to those 

 intending to plant bulbs this fall. The 

 cover is tastefully gotten up and shows sev- 

 eral fall scenes both in Canada and Hol- 

 land, and is excellently printed by a color- 

 type process. The contents are, as usual, 

 arranged in a very comprehensive manner, 

 which makes it an easy task to select the 

 bulbs best adapted for the individual pur- 

 pose. Their advertisement appears on an- 

 other page. 



One of the best and most artistic bulb 

 catalogues that has ever come to our office 

 is the fall catalogue of the Wm. Eennie 

 Company, Limited. It is so entirely differ- 

 ent to the usual catalogue, that it makes a 

 favorable impression on first sight. The 

 cover is printed in imitation of sealskin 

 leather with a panel in the right-hand cor- 

 ner, in which appear three tulips printed 

 by a colortype process. The inside is at- 

 tractively gotten up and numerous collec- 

 tions are arranged for the benefit of these
