Thiey are doing a survey for the show, plotting out the route ho be followed The three-metre diving tower for the new swimming pool surfaced again at Mon- day night's council meceting. Recreation director Gerry J Geicîte reported 10 town council that he had been advised the addition of a threc-metre tower 10 the pro- posed swimming pool wouîd cost an additional $30,000. Mr. Gelette said that as the new pool would be the major pool for Whitby il would perhaps be very desir- able 10 have the three-metre tower. At the last council meetig hé had expressed his feeling that veîy few people aclually knew how to, use a high diving board, and indicated -that installing a high tower would be caler- ing to a select few divers and forcing swimmners to swim oniy in the shallow end away from the tower. Coun. John Goodwin moved that the board be included and to irîcrease the cost of the pool by $30,000., but failed to gel a seconder. Coun. Jimn Gartshore questioned whether it was in order to raise the price of the pool by $30,000. when the price of the pool had not yet been estabîished. Counci-l eventualiy passed a motion 10 accept the rec- realion director's report, but no action be taken. Sharpen up for your spring gardening During these between the seasons weeks while youi're waiting for favourable outdoor wvork wveather, you can use your spare time ta catch up on some of the o verlooked chores. Last fail you oiîed the garden tools to prevent rusting, and now is the time to sharpen the spades, edgers, and sheairs. You don't hiave to be an expert to do this job yourself with a file. If the handies of your garden tools ncd painting, use a brighit colour of paint so that you'l be able to spot them ezsiîy on the iawn. If you arc re- placing a crackcd handie, cut and shape the oîd handie into dibblers (to make holcs for transplants). Take your power mower to a lawn mower mechanic in your area for a thorough go- ing over before the mnowing season starts again. If you forgot to drain the gasoline from the tank iast fail, it has probabiy gummed the feed uine. This could speil trouble. Have il sharpened, set, the spark pltig checked, and cleaned. It shouldn't cost much and the experts can give it better attention at this time of year. DON'T remove muich that was applied last fali around the roses because you can't predict what the weaîher is going to be. 1 sure can't, so I like 10 "piay-the-gardener's- waiting gamne", and when the wealher is in my favour, then l'Il remove the winter protec- tion. And as the weather warms, you can gently pull the muich from around the protecied plants. DO NOT remove it entireiy 50 that if a frost warning is heard, il can be pushed back int place. Seed Shortage Several seed houses have told me that their 1974 seeds are moving fast. If you are planning to enjoy the taste of home grown vegelabies this year. you'd better obtain your vegetable seeds as quickly as possible, even though it is a uitIle early 10 50w them.

A representatîve of arch- itect, Earnest Annau, said that the triangular piece of land on Hwy. 12 (Baldwin Street) and Casseils Road in Brook- lin is a "good location" be- cause Hwy. 12 "is a major thoroughfare." He said "the park can be complemented by a smaîi food store for people who wish to have a picnic can pick-up small food' itemis." 1le added that the traffic would be kept away fromi the residential area, and thiat the signage would retlect the iight into the parking lot. Mr. William Baker, of Beckers Milk Store, broughit files with imi that lie said "dated back over three years on this project." I-le said that hie had been informed in 1970 by Whitby planning director Dr. Michael that the malter was approved subject to a site plan agreement and the acquisitlion of' additional property. In 1971 hie acquired the acquisition of additional pro- perty and engaged architect Ernest Annau to work with the planning departinent and corne up with a site plan agreemen t. Mr. Baker said that he "even brought a professional landscape mari in" and "sub- mnitted drawings after draw- ings." He also pointed out that he had not been notified, of the counicil meeting when the application was rejected. Coun. Joy Thompson said I hiave symipathly for Mr. Baker," but added "I don't sec any sense in re-zoning any othier properties.'

Tuberous Begonias One of the best bulb buys for the home gardcn is the group of Ilicotee, carnellia flowered tuberous begonias. They are easily started in- doors for beautiful blooms outdoors in the summer. The colour range is so vast that youi're sure to find just whaî you want. If you are buying 'tubers from your local garden shop or department store, pick out the good and piurnp ones he- cause tic wrinkled tubers are dehydrated. Nice firm bulbs ensure garden beauty. Easy To Start 1 like to start them in a fjsh flat containing sand and peat moss, however, you can start them in 5 inch pots and let themn grow until ail danger of f rost has passed before you set them in the garden in their own pots. This will make 'it easy to lift themn in the fali to bring indoors to store. One point to remembher T A GA R LKING DENIN w i t h 'C' HARTNOL1J keep the growing area, whe- ther il be a pot, hanging bas- ket, or fish flat, moist, NOT wet. This may mean watering about once a week. 1 prefer a warn area, ,abouit 60-65' for starting-and when top growth appears. a good source of nat- tirai light. If you are starting thcmn in flats, thcy can be placed in pots when leaves appear. Remnember that the more moving that takes place, the more the feeder roots are injured. Water soluiable fertilizer, like Instant Vigoro, will give them tie boost they need for flowcr developmnent and good colouir in' the leaves. Tuberouis be- gonias are excellent showy plants for bedding puirposes and they can take both shade and filtered sunlight. Yoti can start tuberons begonias from seeds, but yotu'll need patience and lime 10 have themn deveiop into tubers. lt's a challenge and it doesn't cost very much.
