The Florists' Review 



Maucu 19. 1914. 



TORONTO, ONT. 



TBe' executive committee of the Ca- 

 nadian Horticultural Association met 

 Monday, March 9, at St. George's hall, 

 Toronto, with Walter Muston in the 

 chair. There was an excellent attend- 

 ance, and the proceedings from start to 

 finish were of such a nature as to make 

 all interested in floriculture look for- 

 ward with increasing interest to the 

 annual convention, which is to be held 

 at Toronto August 4 to 7. Secretary 

 Julius Luck is to arrange with compe- 

 tent authorities for papers to be read 

 at the convention, and among the 

 pleasures that are to be provided are 

 a trip by special train to the Dale Es- 

 tate, at Brampton, and a visit to Sir 

 Henry Pellatt's extensive grounds and 

 gi'eenhouses, as well as a journey- 

 through Miller & Sons' plant at West 

 Toronto, Sports at Scarboro beach are 

 spoken of, as well as a trip across the 

 lake to Niagara with sports in addi- 

 tion, and with the annual banquet to 

 wind up affairs, it is felt that Toronto 

 is really going to excel itself on this 

 occasion. Those in attendance at the 

 executive meeting were the guests of 

 the Gardeners' and Florists' Club of 

 the city, and thoroughly enjoyed the 

 visits to one or two principal places of 

 interest, winding up the evening at 

 Loew's Music Hall. 



A good many florists suffered through 

 the terrible hurricane which swept 

 through this part of Ontario Sunday 

 and Monday, March 8 and 9. Part of 

 W. J. Lawrence's plant at Eglinton 

 was frozen and J. H. Dunlop 's propa- 

 gating house at Richmond Hill was 

 blown down. Carl Grobba, of Mimico, 

 suffered heavily through the roof of 

 his extensive bulb house being blown 

 over and damaging one of his green- 

 houses containing valuable stock. The 

 Gresswell Co., of Moore avenue, is re- 

 ported having been frozen out, and 

 A. J. Milligan, of Lambton Mills, 

 and H. J. Mills, Eichmond Hill, are 

 also among those who lost severely 

 through the terrific force of this storm, 

 which lasted for nearly two days and 

 blew at the rate of between seventy 

 and eighty-five miles per hour. 



W. G. P. 



Calla, O. — Returning from a visit 

 and finding the temperature in ' his 

 houses a little low, Frank Rogers 

 rushed his boiler, with the result that 

 -a large piece of the back section of 

 the cast-iron boiler cracked and fell 

 out, letting out all the water in a mo- 

 ment. Favored by mild weather, he 

 kept the temperature up until a new 

 section arrived. He had fortunately 

 just installed this when the blizzard 

 came.
