The Marquis of Donegal, who, al

times, has hitherto been childless, has
become a father at the age of 82. He

Henry Twining, of H alifax, Nova Beo

a boy, w ill inherit the title, bat com

Aa Instance of Orowth.
I t is a pleasure, in thia day of great
industrial combinations, to note an
instance where an independent concern
haa attained to mammoth proportions,
and has grown steadily bat surely for
years from a small beginning into the
fullness of the present time* Such an
institution is cited in the seed business
of D. M. Ferry A Co., who for nearly
, half a century have gqne forward each
year, constantly adding new customers
and retaining a ll its old ones, until it
is today the source of seed supply from
which the great crops of this country
spring, 8ee4 houses have come and
gone— some survived and flourished for
years, but finally succumbed for one
reason or another— while Ferry’ s kept
growing all the tim e. Thousands of
farmers, gardeners and flower growers
look
them year-after yeS f for thS”
seeds from which the prosperity of
their fields and gardens is to grow, and
the fact that they are never disap
pointed in Ferry’s seeds is the secret
of the wonderful expansion of this pop
ular firm. You can buy their seeds in
every city, town or hamlet of this land,
and you are always certain that they
are fresh, true to name and sure to
grow. Their 1904 Seed Annual, a val

proper seeds to plant, w ill be sent free
