At the Dale Estate. 



Business continues brisk at the Dale 

 Estate, and prospects for Mothers' day 

 are particularly bright, as the day will 

 be observed practically throughout the 

 Dominion. There will be a serious short- 

 age of carnations for this event, but 

 there is every indication of large quan- 

 tities of roses, etc., to fill the needs of 

 the occasion. 



The American Beauties, which were 

 cut back and mulched shortly after 

 Christmas, have responded gratefully to 

 the treatment. Dale's is going in exten- 

 sively for the new roses during the com- 

 ing season. Geo. Shawyer, Ophelia, Mrs. 

 EuBsell and Killarney Brilliant are 

 among the varieties to be grown. Gladi- 

 oli and iris will be ready to cut in about 



A. A, Elliott, who has had charge of 

 the sweet pea section for the last two 

 years, left last month and his place is 

 filled by H. Swain, an experienced 

 grower from England. 



J. Liske, who has had control of the 

 wire department during the last five 

 years, left for England at the beginning 

 of this month. His departure, rendered 

 necesgaiy JJirough domestic reasons, is 

 much regretted by the management and 

 the employees of the estate. 



T. Cowell has gone to Minneapolis. 



Miss Ethel Dale, the youngest daugh- 

 ter of the late Henry Dale, was married 

 April 29 to Dr. W. H. Brydon, at the 

 Dale residence here. Miss Dale attained 

 her majority last month, and the estate, 

 which has been managed by T. W. Dug- 

 gan since the death of Henry Dale in 

 1900, is now about to be wound up. It 

 is hardly likely that there will be any 

 serious changes in the management of 



this well conducted concern, but what- 

 ever adjustments are to be made will 

 take some little time, and nothing will 

 be definitely settled before the end of 

 the present financial year, June 30. 



Superintendent E. Dale attended the 

 annual spring show of the Toronto Gar- 

 deners ' arid Florists' Association. He 

 states that the stock shown was consid- 

 erably better than in any previous year 

 and . that the attendance was also en- 

 couraging. 



Various Notes. 



E. Jennings, W. Calvert and M. Hen- 

 derson are all going in for the same 

 class of stock as in previous years, and 

 Mr. Mclntyre is hurrying on the con- 

 struction of his new greenhouses, which 

 will be planted with mums, carnations 

 and violets for the first season. 



Spring is unusually late. Although 

 the grass is gradually showing up, the 

 cool weather is retarding outdoor growth 

 considerably. W. G. P. 



Carson City, Mich. — Mrs. A, R. All- 

 sop has purchased a piece of real estate 

 on Division street, which she will use 

 to meet the demands of her growing 

 greenhouse business.
