garden on paper than tt is in actual practice in this way l should be able to produce inter- ing results and get a lot of fun of it 1 the time is now ripe to start a sed box for those vegetables and which take a long time to develop before being igansjferred to the outofdoors according to the de partment of agriculture the seed box is not difficult to eon- but it should be carefully done avoid disappointment a flat box with sides about three inches high is meal for the purpose and if it has been so constructed that there are spaces between the boards in the bot tom so much the better if not it will be necessary to drill holes to provide for proper drainage over these holes place pieces of broken pottery so that they win not be clog ged when the loam is put in the box should be filled within an inch of the top with a onegrade loam well sifted next sow the seeds not too thickly in shallow troughs made with the edge of a ruler an inch or two apart now you are ready to firm the earth over the seeds and soak the soil with water without com pletely flooding it until the seed lings develop and the young plants have substantial roots to anchor them in the soil watering should be done with care so that the seedlings will not be washed away ttyeave the plants in toe same box if at all pos sible until it is time to transplant them outdoors the shock of trans planting is an ordeal to which tne young plant should be subjected only once in its life how does the lawn look now that the snow has receded of course if you are a aealous gardener you cleaned it up last fall before the snow came if not it will probably need some attention shortly beneath the bare spots on the lawn will usually be found poor or sour sou it will be necessary to dig up remove any grave or stones filling in with good earth and sowing thickly with a good quality of canadian grass seed for tius purpose and for new lawns it is always best to get a good mixture of high quality packaged grass seed blended by expert seedmen you can help to make georgetown and district beautiful by keeping your lawn and flower garden looking nice a sad story mary had a little lamb twas awful dumb and so it couldnt tell the

on the pages of history the largest colored photographic montage ever attempted will form the background of the spectacular exhi bit of the canadian national rail ways sytsem at the worlds fair in new york when it opens on april so according to officials of the company a montage far the benefit of those unfamiliar with the termjffhe blend ing of one photograpbjinto another in much the same fashion as one scene in a motion picture dissolves slowly into another scene all branch es of the transportation and communi cation services of both the trans- canada air lines and the canadian national system are featured in this gigantic display the montage is curved to provide a flowing pictorial background for the central portion or the exhibit this central portion features a motion pic ture screen on which natural color pictures are to be continuously dis played one of these pictures depicts a trip across canada on the cana dian national railways and the other displays the highlights of jasper na tional park in the canadian rockies and the summer rendezvous jasper park lodge on the shore of lac beau- vert near the town of jasper alberta in the exhibit are displayed sugges tions of the various services of the canadian national system including a perfect model of a transcanada passenger plane eight feet long with a wing spread of ten feet also a large map outlining the routes of the canadian national railways and transcanada air lines the canadian national exhibit is located in the canada building at a worlds pair noted for its sise and lavishness of attractions the exhibit of the canadian national system to be outstanding for its beauty and its appeal traffic officials or the canadian na tional railways are busily preparing for a large movement of canadians down to new york to join the throng from all over the world who will be seeing the pair which it is estimated will attract a total of 15000000 visi tors during the great display special fares will be in effect boiled kettle with old crutches once used them because of rheumatism he was not wrong either this man who concluded that he would not need his crutches again writ ing of his experiences he says for five years i suffered terribly from rheumatic pains and i began to think my case hopeless i also had a bad stomach and i rarely had a meal without my fobx repeating on me one day an old friend told me to try kruschen salts so i bought a bottle and gave it a trial after some time i was able to enjoy a good meal and to walk more freely one morning i got up and lit the are and my mother thought i was crazy because i sawed my old crutches up and boiled the kettle for coffee with them that was six years ago and i am now back at my old job as a chef htab do you realise what causes a good deal of rheumatism nothing but sharpedged uric acid crystals which form as the result of sluggish elimin ating organs kruschen baits can al ways be counted upon to clear those painful crystals from the system

new en in agriculture revolutionary changes abb wrought by farm maxjhtnkry pioneer days recalled hi rotary addren the vast changes that have been ef fected in farming through the use of laboursaving implements and the part that modern farm machinery is playing in reducing the farmers costs of production were the h rn an address on the new bra in agri culture given before the rotary club of toronto last week by john martin of the masseyharra company mr martin by striking contrasts of production figures brought home to his audience the importance of agri culture in canada showing that the value of the fodder crops of canada tor 1937 amounted to tl38000000 whereas that for the total gold pro duction of canada for the same year was 1430oo0o0 or practically the same amount for fodder just feed for horses and cattle as or the gold production of canada and that the dairy production of ontario and que bec alone was 4157000000 or 14000- 000 more than for the total gold pro duction of canada the story of the development of agriculture from the small dealings of the pioneer days to the larger acre ages of today the speaker said was largely the story of the introduction and development of farm implements and canadians had played a most im portant part in it exports important to national ready with proof son daddy who was hamlet daddy arent you ashamed oi your ignoarnce

cock- shutts frost and wood had put canada right in the forefront of im plement making in the world hi said and told how the small plant started in newcastle by daniel mas sey in 1847 had grown and of the amalgamation with the harris com pany in 1891 how the business spread to 52 countries of the world and spoke of it as being as firmly tabllshed in the business of a score of other countries as in its own native land as a result of its export business masseyharris he said in the ten year period from 19281937 spent in canada 21261000 more than the to tal of all its sales in canada surely a worthwhile contribution to the na tional economy of removes stoops prom fanning one of the oldest of callings the speaker reminded his audience farm ing had seen few changes down through the ages until the coming of mechanical aids now changes take place with such rapidity that we do not stop to consider the transforma tion that has taken place he found a ready means of recalling what farm ing meant in the premachme days by reference to those famous pictures of the great french artist millet which still adorn the walls of many homes the angelus the glean ers and the man with the hoe and pointed out that they all had one significant characteristic and that was the bent backs of the peopli working in the field the full import of the man with the hoe he brought home with dra matic force in the few lines he quoted from edwin markhams now famous poem in which he calls on masters lords and rulers of all lands to straighten up this shape but mr martin added each step in the eman cipating of the fanner from this back- breaking braindeadening toll has come about by the introduction some new laborsaving machine and thus modern farm machinery had done more than all the masters lords and rulers of all lands to straighten up this shape farm production coat lowered even with canadian farming on a higher standing than it had ever been her or in any other part of the world it still had great problems confront ing it such as the difficulties of wes tern canada with soildrifting rust and grasshoppers the low price that prevailed for some of its products the disparity or farm product prices with the prices of manufactured pro ducts generally and the problem of dwindling export markets for wheat and its consequent low price but here again the speaker said the agricultural engineer comes to the aid of the farmer and cited the tevelopment of the onewaydisc seeder which combining the various on rations oi tillage and seeding all in ane avoided too much over culti vation of the soil and left it in a mat ted condition which successfully re sisted soilblowing and at the same time cut the cost of tillage and seed ing by at least 40 in the great need for concentrat ing on lower cost of production the agricultural engineer had effected an adaptation of the combine method or harvesting in the new small power- takeoff combines which brought trn advantages of this most economical method of harvesting within the scope or the farmer of smaller acreages a one man outfit mr martin said farmers last year told him that their only out of pocket expense for oper ation was the cost of gas and oil which amounted to what it would have cost for the price of bmder- twlne thresher method saving the cost of stookers and threshing crews and the woman of the farm was lav- ed the ordeal of cooking for the threshing crew etc tractors too had shown as great improvements especially in the re duction of operating costs cluing a tantalizing i trifle by frances tee bottom ohes a
