The dally rosa was singled out for acco- S de as campions af agriculture, ~1to the amazement and amusement af many present. Trenrendous Respnslbllity, Dr. Reynolds, i ntroducing1 Mr. Hannam, recalled that as Epresident of the O.A.C.

Mn: Hannani, ta acknowledging what he termed "extravagant laudatian", nevetheleis pomnted out lac fact that lac position he occupied was through direct, de- mocratic, votes of farinons, while lac Federal Minster held his posi- tion as a palitical appointee. Hle said: "I view the position I now hold as one ai tremendousj nesPonslbility but I ami sustained by your collective lainlcing and shail forward yaun ideas ta thc lirnit af My capabilities."

This sort of thlng, lately »exposed in the press, has roused the wrath of Mh#sters whom we are accus- tamed ta terin "responsible." NO one present doubted the stnalght- forward allegatians of Mri. Gif- fard who wai con'.rended for his frankness.' Constitution Adopted Chairman Bawles in presenting the typed form of Constitution, stated that the meeting was open for full discussion. The motion of M. H. Staples, after suggcstedi clarification in short speeches by Prof. C. B. Sissons and Harry Joie, was carrled unanlmously. In effect, it providcd that: "The constitution be adopted ai read with provision that the slate of Directors as prepared, be pro- visional until the next annual meeting when election shail be by way of Township, meetings as the/ neucleus af orgaffization ra- ther than nominations by Town- ship councili." The word "Pro- vislonal"' was inserted and the Durham Federation then became a "fait accompli." Board of Direotors The lst of provisional directori follows: Capt. C. H.

Instead af pnoductag a plot that la a joy ta bis own family and lac envy af bis neighbors, he may slmply have apened up a wlder space fon weeds ta flourish. Plawmng or îpading up a ncw picce af land is aimait ccntainly going ta ho fol- lowed by a luxuriant crop ai weedi, unlcîs cultivation la main- tained. This is nai difficult with a small piece af ground. One persan can handle a quarter acre af voge- table gardon in spare tio, pro- vided ho is willing to dovote an eventag or sa a week ta it. If this time ia nat available thon a much smaller plot should be chosen. 1As a matten af fact, ail ciponi- enced gardenens advocato a smail, woll cultivated.plot ta prefenence ta anc langer and receiving Iiss cane. The smallor plat, tao, ta the end will produce the best and the most vegetables. If lac original digging la followed promptly and rogularly wila froni two ta four thoraugh cultivations, about a wock ta ton days apart, lac weeds wiil get discouragod. To nake sure, howovor, laat lac wecdi are killed and not just temporarily put off fron starting, it la well ta ailow sufficiont time in between cultivation for tho pesta ta ger- minate and atarita ograw. Bat Beds A hot bcd fan stanting gardon icoda eanly is usually prepared in March., It consista af a bcd ai freih hanse nanuro, which sup- plies lac heat, about 18 taches deep.
