At 'present it is being manufactured and marketed by one of ihe pulp and :paper companies in the state of Washington and is being sdld in 'British Columbia. Possibly this was the .reason why the representatives of a German firm .who were recently in Prince Rupert were so keen about the supply of hemlock. ANDY RUDDY NOMINATED Anthony M. Ruddy, generally known throughout the interior.as "Andy" Ruddy, has been nominated as the Liberal standard bearer for Omineca ridintr. He is well known not only throughout the riding but throughout the interior. The Liberals of the district crowded out to En-dako to express their choice in such numbers that no dining room was more than half big enough to accommodate tnem.and .the expected banquet had to be called off. Evidently Mr; Ruddy is very popular there. Mr. Ruddy As not an orator by any means. This may be held for or against him, according to the views held on those subjects. However, the candidate is pre-eminently a man of action, "Without Andy Burns Lake would never have been anything," declared a Burns Lake citizen recently. Hepiit'in the light and power plant for the town. He was well to the fore at the convention , of the Associated Boards of Trade of Central British Golumhm whpn they met ,in his town.

Since growing commenced -Af fWT VAIV1" rains have arrived in each case Just lj Jj If I 7lflY aiKJUL inerigni ume unci jiave ru-cburaged -growth so that today 'the gardens are not as late as might have'been expected consldering;the late start. Most people now 'have their dahlias and gladioli planted and a , few. have the most forward of the latter showing above the ground. I planted out of doors nearly two weeks ago a dahlia that was ftheri eight inches above the ground. The .sharp mnrnlng.Jrosts of last week singed the outside j leaves but the dahlia continued to grow and is now about ten or twelve inches high and strong. In a garden I visited Sunday I saw some fine begonias badly cut by the frost. They were almost in bloom when planted out but they were just a little ahead of time. It would have been better te wait a week or two rather than have the plants so badly cut. They will grow all right but not as well as if they had escaped the frost. My begonias are from two to four inches high and will be planted out in about a week or possibly ten days. Roses everywhere seem to have been hit hard by the frost. iEven those that came through alive do not seem to grow as fast as usual. More people than ever have got the Idea of digging the trees up In the autumn and burying thenv in .trench or storing them in the basement. Some people saved all their trees while a few lost them all. The average seems to be a loss of about twenty-flve percent. I was interested In looking over Bob Yates' garden last Sundayi.He goes In for alpines and delights In raising rare specimens. (He has each plant carefully labelled and! placed according to Its natural habitat and the right amount o limestone or other mineral or plant food needed. I compared It favorably with my own rough and ready method'of cultivation under which I look chiefly for mass of color and effect rather than Individual attention. W. B. Cornish has an ideal for mal garden on Seventh Avenue and all the little fancy touches that go with it. It is wonderfully well kept and always, looks well. I noticed, his sweet peas were up several inches and seemed likely to make a-big showing thlsyear. They are planted on the sunny side of the house. Mr. Cornish's garden is much admired. Many people who make gardens do not grow the flowers they like but the flowers that are available1' and that can be grown without much difficulty. Anything that will make a splash of color is sought and, after all, color is what we heed in Prince Rupert. The forests are sombre enough and the chief object In a garden is to provide a relief from the rather drab surroundings. II. F. P.
