A Good Hobby F-or Summer Months Durig the war quite an army of city dwellers devehoped into wartime vegetable gardeners. Time, and many an aching back bas taken its toîl, and many a space in the backyard garden is back in grass or is grawing per- ennials-flawers whicb require the least attention. But some still find vegetable growing a healthy hobby and continue ta supple- ment the dinner table witb home- grawn supplies. It ix surprising the quantity of vegetables that can be grawn on the smallest of backyards, but where space ix naturally limited, it ix best ta keep ta thase maost easiiy grawn.

The best place for the vege- table patch is where it will re- ceive full sunlight. Digging in the fall is test, but iA can be done in the spring just as soon as the ground is dry enough to work properly. A common mistake is ta dig tao deeply. The best part of the soul is generally the top- soul which the builder used wher grading, and for this reason spad- ing should flot -exceed eight to ten inches, so that the better soi] stili remains on 'the top. Well rotted manure is a great- help in plant growth, but it is flot ah. ways possible to obtain it for city gardens. Where this is so, ready- mixed commercial fertilizer may be used to advantage. Scatter the fertilizer over the surface af othe garden after, digging, at the rate of 4 pounds per 100 square feet, and work iA into the top-soi] with a rake. If it cames into direct contact with roots or tops, it will cause burning of the young plants. Good seed can be obtained from the local seed store; it can 'be relied upon as it conforms ta established Government stand- ards. But it is a good plan ta ask your supplier ta give you the varieties bestesuited ta your par- ticular hocality. Often a crop does nat do well because a variety of seed was used flot suited ta the district.

'Grants f rom Gov't. on Commercial Products Off ered Fail Fairs The matter of grants ta Agri- cultural Societies, ta provide en* couragement for commercial pro- duction features at faîl fairs, isj being brought ta the attention of aIl secretaries in Ontario. A let- ter ta Agriculturai Societies has been sent out by J. A. Carroll, Superintendent of the Agricultiir- al and Horticultural Societies Branch, Ontario Department ci Agriculture. In it he says- "During the past two years, grants have been provided Ag- ricultural Societies ta encourage commercial production features at faîl fairs. In 1949 a total of 50 grants were paid as compared ta 39 in 1948. From reports sub- mitted ta this office by societies qualifying for such assistance, there is 'every indication that the project adds new interest ta the fair and focuses attention on main commercial praducts grown ori produced in the society's area. Il, potatoes, vegetables, feed grain, turnips, fruit, tobacco, - t>oultry and eggs, bacon hogs, feeder cat- tie, market lambs, cheese and honey. "Societies are urged to, give this matter special attention and thos. wishing to qualify for a grant should observe regulations gov. erning them." Regulations require that the grant shall be 50 per cent of society expenditure in staging such a comm*ercial productiQr1. feature up ta a maximum of $2 Cost may include prize mone?" iudges, display material, adver* tising and services. A society may feature two commercial products and qualify for two grants. Pro- duct chosen must represent a ma- jor source of farmn revpnue com- mon to the area. It is urged that Junior Farmers, Womnen's Insti- tute, and farm forums be encour- aged ta co-operate. It is suggested that the matter by discussed at future meetings of Fair Boards and other bodies interested. Stafflord Bros. Monumental Works Phone Whltby 552 1 318 Dundas St. E..
