ARCHERY CLUB HOLD SUCCESSFUL MEET The line bright weather Wed­ nesday afternoon secured a large attendance of the West Van Archery Club at their range on the corner of 29th and Marine. Owing to the good turn out the occasion was selected for the semi annual meeting and it was decided to utilize subscriptions for the purpose of improving the range. These improvements will be carried out during the forthcoming week and will be in operation on Wednesday next at 3 o'clock when it is hoped a still larger attendance will be in evidence. All those interested in this delightful pastime which is older even than the roj'al and ancient game of golf are invited to attend. Information regarding mem­ bership can be obtained from Major Barwis, president or Dr. Roberta Vass, vice-president.

C. a t Boulevard Park, North Vancouver, Snturday, 17th September a t 2 p. m. Both sides were short of regular players in this game but the Colts were handicapped in batting 2 short. The Colts started off well and had scored 37 before their first wicket fell, runs came steadily for them until Baker went on bowling, with an ex­ cellent length and control. Ed. Baker dismissed all but two of the Colts finishing with an average of 7 wick­ ets for 17 runs. West Vancouver a- gain made a very poor show batting and all were easily out except Baker who finished off a very satisfactory day by making 58 runs and securing an easy victory for his side. Next Saturday's game marks the close of a very enjoyable and inter­ esting season. ROSE CULTURE British Columbia has been called the "Garden of Canada." And of all the flowers that make splendid the thousands of gard­ ens of this province, the British Columbia rose reigns, queen of them all. To the rosarian who has never budded his own rose trees, the processes of rose propagation re­ main rather an abstract opera­ tion, a benign provision of Moth­ er Nature for the perpetuation of one species and the creation of another. But in the rose gardens of the British Columbia Nurseries the delicate details of this interesting branch of rose cultivation hold the secret of one of the most important advent­ ures in rose growing in the Do­ minion. The life history of Brit­ ish Columbia roses written in very short chapters, reads like this:--Cuttings are made in De­ cember; they are cut up by the thousands by a very fast revolv­ ing circular saw. These cuttings are made from the parent stem of Japanese Multi-Flora Thorn­ less Briar. This stock is chosen for its superior stamina and vig­ orous root system. Cuttings are planted in fine leaf mould and sand and placed in a semi-stor­ age cold frame. As soon as the season opens these are set out in the fields. In July the bud­ ding begins. The buds are pre­ pared by men specially skilled in this branch ol rose culture. Their progress is preceded by a gang of men whose work it is to prepare the growing cuttings for the process of budding. An­ other summer brings a healthy hardy bush with a dozen or two of gorgeous blooms of the vari­ ety propagated. All this in just 18 months. Roses perfectly pro­ duced in less time, than in any other part of the world. E. S. GAMAGE. To be sold at big sacrifice.-- Cleared Lots in Weston.
