The lilium phlladclphium an-dinum, for those not up on the botanical names, is nothing more or less than the prairie lily, commonly known as the tiger lily, deep orange, dark-brown-spotted and prolific in some parts of the prairies. Long since the Manitoba flower emblem has faded in this year of 1946 the delicate fur-! red prairie ananome or crocus which earlier this year made a purple carpet of the palrie gresi- land from the Manitoba border i clear through to the Rockies and on into them wherever the railway right-of-way alowed grass to grow in the mountain cuts. Although six of the nine provinces have official flower emblemsand in Nova Scotia the official flower has found its way Into the coat-of-arms. That flower is the trailing arbutus or mayflower, a tender, woodland harbinger of spring In the Maritlmes. Ontario too adopted a spring flower, the trilllum which grows pink or white and is native to the woodlands, one of the first signs each year that winter has gone, for good. Alberta's Wild Rose In Alberta the wild rose (rose acicularis) was made the official floral emblem by an act passed 6y the Alberta Legislature in 1930. The children of the foothills province made the choice. Asked for their vote they called the wild rose, pink, live-petalled, hardy and sweet-scented, the most popular flow-r in the province. Mostly one finds it growing stunted but indomitable along the railway racks, or more lush and with a tendency to climb along meadow enccs, and few western farm children but remembes the July cent of new-mown hay and the wild rose. New Brunswick, the other jrovince with an official flower :mblcm has the wild violet, an-ither spring flower naUve to low-lying shady country, particularly woodlands where it omes in yellow, violet and white. Quebec, Prince Edward Island and British Columbia have yet to choose flowers but in the Pacific Coast province natives have a soft spot for the pale cream-colored flower of the dogwood tree. For a time it was picked, )r the trees cut down, In such lumbers that warnings were nt out this tree and its flower might become extinct If picked too recklessly. Ontario's trillium Is a memtwr of the lily family, one of about 30 species found in North America and Eastern Asia. It is a smooth low perennial with a shiny, simple stem bearing at the top a whorl of three leaves and a single conspicuocs flower ol three sepals, three petals, six stamens and three-celled ovary. The wake-robin and birth root, two other handsome spring flowers, are close relatives. Just why Nova Scotia chose the trailing arbutus has been lost in antiquity, but It was officially adopted in 1901 under legislation Introduced by Attorney-General Longley because Massachusetts in that year THIS AND THAT "I've been waiting for a night iike this to ask you, Mildred are you interested in astronomy?"

I Said Longley: "It would be lamentable if rich and powerful Massachusettes were to steel this little ewe lamb of ours." Before the last snow has melt -1 ed the trailing arbutus comes to ; the wooded places of Nova Sco- j tia and it appears with a thist!? i tribute to the Scots who cams to a new land in the provincial coat-of-arms. Joseph Howe, in ; a poem to the Mayflower said: j 'Scotia asked and Flora gave Her" the Mayflower. , New Brunswich chose the violet about five years ago, while the fleur de lys and the maple leaf show In Quebec's coat-of-arms, even though the province offi cially recognizes no flower.
