I.,.- Ci.'iJATLY RE-duced fu ■ June. Buy Tweddle High FURNITURE ....Gardening Notes.... ANNUAL FLOWERS In selecting a list of annual flowers, attention must be paid, of course, to time of blooming and colour. Height should also be noted as a medium sized plant may be hidden by some bushy stocks or tall cosmos. But these are only elemental points which of i perience notes automatically. There are other and finer distinctions. Certain shades blend well together and often a whole bed will be selected with this blending in mind. Of course, for this sort of thing, all the plants must bloom during the same period. Fragrance should be taken into account, as there are some spicy things like Evening Scented Stock, Nicotine, Mignonette, Sweet Sultan and Verbena, which while rather plain as plants, fill the whole garden with a delightful incense, more especially in the evening. In shaded quarters, Tuberous-rooted Begonias, Pansies and wild flowers will do well. In "act, hey prefer this location to any other. In partial shade, Clarkia, Annual Larkspur, Lupine, Nicotine, Phlox and Verbena should be grown. On poor soil, Portu-lica is a favorite, as well as Alyssum, Sweet-scented Stocks, Linum, Calendulas, Calliopsis, Sunflowers, Schizan-thus, Salpiglossis, Marigolds, Petunias, and many others. These will also successful!/ resist dry weather. Practically any of th^se flowers may still be planted successfully. THINNING Thinning of both flowers and vegetables is most important after the plants are up an inch or so. With flowers a good rule is to have half as much space between as the plants will te high. This will be about a foot be-twee- ordinary ~>arigolds, petunias and asters, two or three feet between cosmos and dahlias, but only an inch or so separating tiny alyssum, lobelia and other edging plants. Well spaced flowers will be more sturdy and thus resist heavy wind and rain. Even the smallest vegetables such as lettuce and radish must be thinned out. An inch or so will be sufficient and that is also all the room that will bt needed for carrots and beets, because when these things have developed roots an inch thick and two or three long, every other plant should be removed and used, and this proceeding followed until the whole row is used up. NOT TOO LATE It is not too late in most parts of Canada to order and plant perennial flowers and even shrubs and vines. Often towards the end of the season, prices are lower and while the selection is not as wide as earlier there should be a good choice. REPLACING PERENNIALS Perennials are plants that die to the ground in the winter and come up from the roots each spring. They are the permanent flowers in our gardens, and once planted, are supposed to be everlasting. It is a fallacy, however, to think that a garden is ever permanent. All perennial gardens should be replanted every three years. Perennials must have sun for at least part of the day and the soil should be good topsoil to a depth of 12 to 15 inches, with drainage in the bottom. If the soil is clay, add agricultural slag or ashes and commercial fertilizer. If sandy, add manure or peat moss. There are so many new and better varieties of perennials available to use that we should plant the best ones. Consult the catalogue of a good nurseryman. It is important, too, to arrange planting so that colors harmonize and the high ones are not planted in front of low varieties.. PERSONAL ARB YOU RUPTURED?

Issue No. 22--'38 Bird-Life Saved By Sanctuaries Jack Miner's Work Proves It-Bid Is Made for Large-Scale Conservation Plans By LANCE CONNERY Naturalist and woodsman, Jack Miner's bid for lasting fame rests on the sure foundation of his establishment of the sanctuary system of bird conservation. His Kingsville sanctuary, founded in 1904, was perhaps the first such sanctuary where artificial feeding was carried on to protect and conserve bird life. Today the system has spread not only in Canada and the United States, but also to several European coun- Oddly enough, public sentiment among both great sporting camps, those who shoot and those who don't, is squarely behind the naturalist's conservation efforts. Those who don't shoot welcome the preservation of their favorite species, while the hunters realize their sporting future hinges on reasonable preservation of game life. While the Kingsville sanctuary has possibly gained greater prominence through providing food and shelter for waterfowl, equal attention has been given to upland game birds. Thousands of dollars have gone maintaining and improving the langsville sanctuary, but it has been ^Je>ey well spent. Not only through bird haven but through other similar sanctuaries founded as a direct result of the naturalist's pioneering has bird life gained some measure of protection from threatened extermination. Yet the amount spent on sanctuary work is far less than salaries of the number of game gardens required to perform only a fraction of such conservation ser- The sanctuary system, along with game wardens or overseers placed in charge, will save bird life from extermination, is Jack Miner's firm belief, based on his many years of experience. He should know.

He won permission to take a selected group of the finest dogs to remote Tibet. They will be stationed at a refuge built by two St. Bernard brothers at Latsa Pass, high up in the Himalayas.
