The essays submitted concerning the origins of the Ontario County Building have relived a part of our past, but there is more. In a booklet published in 1904, thumbnail sketches were made for the County and its three "towns" -- Whitby, Uxbridge, and Oshawa. "Whitby is the County Town. Here are located the County Buildings, including the Court- house, Jail and Registry Office, the County of Ontario House of Refuge and Industrial Farm, the Armory of the 34th Regi- ment and one of the Govern- ment Experimental Fruit Farms. "It 4s an. educational centre with three well-equipped public schools, an efficient Roman Catholic Separate School, and one of the Ontario County Model | Schools. "The Whitby Collegiate Insti- tute was established as a Gram- mar School in 1849, and has during its long history, held a foremost place among the High schools and Collegiate Institutes of the Province, "The Ontario Ladies College was established in 1874 in Tra- falgar Castle, the former resi- dence of Sheriff N. G. Reynolds Two very extensive additions, School, and three well-graded Towns and aggregating with the origin- al outlay upwards of a quarter of a million dollars, have since been made. | "It is so well equipped, and . has such a numerous and able| « staff of instructors that it has) attracted pupils from all parts of the Dominion and the United States." | OSHAWA: The Town of Oshawa has ap-| propriately been called the Man-| chester of Canada, | "It has a number of the larg-/ est manufacturing establish- ments for pianos (GM was not a byword then), carriages, mal- leable iron work and woollen goods for the Dominion, be- sides many smaller but prosper- ous industries. | "It has an excellent High Public Schools, and Bishop! Bethune Ladies College. "The latter occupies Elle3- mere Hall, the handsome resi-| dence of the late Hon. T. N.| Gibbs. There is also a convent! School in connection with the Roman Catholic Church. UXBRIDGE "The Town of Uxbridge has several important milling and manufacturing establishments. It is one of the best market) towns in the Province, and has eo an excellent High School, as well as a well-graded Public involving a large expenditure school."

Watering is all: done with automatic sprinklers and as the cool liquid sinks to the roots of the plants it carries the plants lunch with it in the form of various dissolved chem- icals, The soil used in the growing benches is of a straw humus variety; which is liberally spiced with the right amounts of chemical: fertilizers at pre- cisely the right time. When, in the case of the 'mums, the flowers are ready to be cut and shipped to his outlet in Toronto the soil in 'the bench is steamed to purify it and allow for a fresh planting. Carnations are cut from plants that grow to a_height of four or five feet, and are in the ground for two or more years. The basic plant keeps bloom- ing and many fong-stemmed beauties can be cut from the same root system. Not so in the case of the 'mums. Plants of many vari- eties of flowers are cut and cleared to ready the bench for a planting of fresh. root sys- tems. Large 'mum flowers are achieved by removing all but one healthy bud from a stalk allowing the full food pro- viding powers of the root to concentrate on one single, near- perfect flower. Next time you press your nos- trils to a fragrant bloom on a cold winter night, think of the months of scientific planning, and the large amounts of spe- cialized hand labor that make it possible for you to enjoy a small splash of the long hot summer, in the middle of the cold, ice-bound winter. And what's special about TROPICANA? It's so versatile, it's practically a one-brand bar! Besides being a superior light rum by itself, your guests will enjoy it in any rum drink imaginable. It makes delightful versions of almost any drink you can name! Just try TROPICANA with three or four quite different mixes.
