There are now 865 lodges in Ontario having a total membership of nearly 42,000, an increase for 1909 of 2,211. Last year an average of over $851 per day was paid out for relief, nearly 8,500 members sharing in it. This is one phase of the practical work of the three .Iinkedbrethren who under the banner of Friendship, Love and Truth, are marching gallantly forward.

And nowhere in the vegetable kingdom is this wore true than in the Aster family. Hybridizers all over the world vied with each other in creating new formes and bringing out new colors, until to day the Aster 'ranks as one of the few flowers that is considered almost perfect.; ..This is recognized to such an extent. that the' efforts of Hybridizers to -day are turn- ed in the direction of creating new forms rather than improving the Qld • ones.
