Tlie Smith & Reed Co. St. Catharines, Ont. 



ANNOUNCEMENT.— For the purpose of dem- 

 onstrating the ability of "Target Brand Scale 

 Destroyer" to kill San Jose Scale and yet do 

 no damage to trees, I will furnish 2 gals, (enough 

 for one 32 gal. bbl. of solution) f.o.b., Jordan 

 Station, gratis to a limited number of applicants 

 throughout Canada. I desire to have these 

 tests made on infested trees not included in an 

 area larger than can be thoroughly covered 

 with one bbl. of mixture — want no other in- 

 fested trees near by. Would be pleased to 

 receive information regarding such spots from 

 those who have sufficient interest in the ex- 

 termination of this pest to see that these ap- 

 plications are made as instructed. Guaranteed 

 to do no damage to trees. Kills 99 per cent, of 

 scale. "Target Brand Arsenate of Lead" 

 beats all in extermination of codling moth and 

 other insects, and remains in suspension, and 

 stays on. W. H. Brand, Jordan Station, Ont., 

 Canadian Distributor. 



FACTORY IN CANADA.— The Niagara Gas 

 Sprayer Co. has made extensive sales in Canada 

 during the past few years and has decided to 

 establish a factory near St. Catharines to supply 

 their Canadian customers. . The factory at 

 Middleport, N.Y., recently has been running 

 night and day. A carload of machines has 

 been shipped to Portland, Oregon, and some 

 of these will be forwarded to British Columbia. 

 The Ont. Government has purchased one for 

 experimental work. About 20 of the machines 

 in use in Canada have been taken back to the 

 factory and equipped with new fittings and 

 made equal to the 1906 machines. 



THIRTY-SIXTH CATALOG.— The 1906 seed 

 catalog issued by Wra. Ewing & Co., of Mon- 

 treal, contains a full list of the leading varieties 

 of seeds, plants, and bulbs used by florists, 

 gardeners and farmers, as well as tools and 

 other sundries handled by seedsmen. Direc- 

 tions for growing the various garden crops, 

 for making hot beds and other valuable informa- 

 tion is given. Every gardener and fiower lover 

 should secure a copy. The special collections 

 offered are particularly good value for the 

 money. 



IT BROUGHT RESULTS— Mr. W. H. Bunting, 

 of St. Catharines, wrote us recently as follows: 

 " Kindly withdraw my advertisement of the 

 Gold Coin Potato, as I am all sold out. Orders 

 came in with a rush a few days after the March 

 number of The Horticulturist was out. I 

 received many enquiries for my strawberry 

 plants also. You may continue my strawberry 

 advertisement. I consider The Horticulturist 

 an excellent medium for reaching the best class 

 of buyers. 



LARGE PURCHASES. -Recognizing the desir- 

 able qualities of the crimson red canna, Mrs. 

 Wm. F. Kasting, listed by Wm. F. Kasting, of 

 Buffalo, Park Commissioner Chambers of To- 

 ronto has secured a large quantity for use in 

 Toronto parks this season. This brilliant 

 canna stands almost 4 ft. high, and is very 

 prolific. Florists prize it highly for conserva- 

 tory decorations. At the World's Fair in 1904 

 it was awarded a gold medal. 



THOSE DESIRING GRAPE VINES and cur- 

 rant bushes will find the stock supplied by 

 Mr. Joseph Tweddle, of Fruitland, gives entire 

 satisfaction. Mr. Tweddle has grown stock for 

 some of the leading nurserymen for 28 years. 



Reports from the leading nurseries in the 

 Niagara district indicate that the stock has 

 wintered well. The Pelham Nursery Company 

 intimate that never in the history of their 

 business have the season's prospects been better 

 than this year. Their agent reports very satis- 

 factory sales from all districts, and their stock 

 is in the very best condition.
