PONTYZOOL The day thîs issue is due ta be printed, March 15, will mark the anniversary of a breath-taking event. For, it was on that day in 1895, that your scribe was bonn. Which makes us fifty-five. Say, we're reaily slipping along, eh? Ten mare years, then cames the aid age pension (we hope). Jobnny James, M.P. for Dur- ham, in a recent issue apaiogized because bis column was written on a Sunday. As long as Johnny producep such spiendidly nterest- ing calumns as that particular one, he can write them any aid time he likes. And, anyone who has tao much palitical bias ta read them, ought ta go live with Joe Stalin, where they don't allow free political expressions. If wve want ta know what Par- liament is daing officiaily, we can read it in Hansard. But, what we can't read in Hansard are those extracurnicular duties and activities that Johnny mentioned and, that are fan more buman in- terest ta most af us on the back concessions than a lot o! dry, vac- uous verbiage beiched up just to try ta impress the folks back in the home constituency. Johnny said, "ane o! the hard- sbips a! being an M.P. is living apart from the family." Who's lie kidding? There isn't one of us men, marnied as long as Johnny, who wouidn't give his ight arm ta be away from the aid bail and chain for a speli! Duning that long sub-zeno speli, aur old dog, every marning anaund 4:30 a.m., yeiped ta go outside. As youn scribe sieeps sans everything, you can imagine how enervating it was ta ral out o! a ,snug, warm bed ta let that poocb out. As we opened the autside 1doon and the zero blast bit the aid birtbday suit, it had the effect of scooting us back ta bcd as quickly as Dagwood catching the ,morning bus. 1 Ever since the Hydro line was 1built into Pontypoal 20 years aga, we have longed ta live in a bouse serviced by it. Last summer a line was built witbin 200 feet o! the bouse. Now, warkmen are busy wiring bere, wbich prompt- ed my wife ta suggcst that, by plugging in, I couid bail my own breakfast eggs. Nothing daing! That's tao much lîke having a dag and doing yaur own barking. Apparently, the battie o! the ballots is ended in Great Bitain. Wasn't it surprising bow few women wene elected? Women shouid be betten in palitics than men. For one thîng, they're su- penior as deceivers. They are pretty good appraisers too, look haw anc woman sizes up another and fells at a glance the value o! every garment from bat ta shoes. But, thene is anc place they wouidn't be so hot. If a female polit ician made some boodie by gnaft, she wouldn't bide it away in a bank deposit box. No sir! She wouid likeiy spiurge it on a ncw mink coat, thus giving the game away and ietting ber con- stituents know thene wzr: some- thing rotten in Denmark. Our local M.P., in the last issue, invites suggestions from wc, the people, as ta bow the present Go- vcrnmcnt should praceed with re- gard ta Old Age Pensions. We think Johnny put bis finger squarely on the spot when he toid us that the Act was designed ta take cane o! people wbo wouid otberwise be unabie ta survive if VENETrIAN.

For confirmation ahl that is necessary is ta look at what same city gardeniers bave donc wifh the 'assortcd blue dlay mortan and broken bricks some builders have used in grading Up the backyand. Almost anything wiil disintegrate in time and what woiVt can be bauled away an used for drainage. With vcny large plots this can be donc by insfailing tule drains ai- througb an open ditch will be a lot cheaper and may do well cnough. After tbis, treatment for very heavy or very light souls is about the same. The main thing is ta get in pienty of humus and cul- tivate. Humus is simply a high ciass name for ordinary manune. The more of this stu!! that is dug in the more open and porous the soul becomes. Whcre possible it's a good plan ta grow a crop o! dloyen, faîl rye, aats or some rank-growing thing and dig or plow this under.

Good bealthy stock is green, pliable, moist and equipped with sound buds, but not in lea!. If is only with such stock thaf anc can be "lucky." When purchased, good stock wil be weii wrapped ta keep in maist- une and keep out air, especialiy about the noots. The buyer should make sure be keeps it that way.
