Just as soon as the ground Ls diy will, be a good time to begin spring operations which have already been much delayed by the frost. There is a ticket selling campaign In progress and the way they are going seems to indicate that there will be a large attendance at the annual banquet next Tuesday evening of the Prince Rupert Horticultural Society. The great attraction for that event is tire series of colored slides of beautiful gardens and of bulb farms which is to be shown Immediately following the dinner. There will be a brief report from the president and secretary but. beyond that, speeches are taboo. Featured In the garden scenes are Butchart's Gardens near Victoria and the garden of Mr. Coulter, collector of customs at Whilehorse, Y.T.

It is probable that the insurgent Liberals will fall back into their former places but the rather caustic debate is bound to leave some scars that quite possibly may have ah effect on future political relations. The intermittent war upon Premier Pattullo in certain quarters ever since the election indicates that the financial powers fear him and his alleged radical tendencies. Evidently he did not seem to worry over the break but enjoyed the fight as much as the spectators. He is said to have had a smile on his, face throughout. Now he is in Ottawa putting up another fight for the people of British Columbia and it is quite probable he will make a better showing than most people seem to expect.
