Reid SHOE STORE THE DAILY BRI FLOWERS FROM SEED Beauty and Fragrance for All at | Very Small Cost, | Most Anndals May Be Sown Indoors For an Early Start--A Few Sim- ple Remedies Suggested for In- | sect and Other Pests -- Annuals May Be Transplanted. (Contributed by Ontario Department of | Agriculture, Toronto.) Among the varieties that should be | stahted early indoors are Petunias, Verbenas, Antirrhinum (Snap- | dragon), Pentstemon glozinioides, | Salvia, Ageratutm, Centaurea gym- | ocarpa (Dusty Miller), Pyrethrum (Golden Feather), and Lobelia. The four kinds last named being of a dwarf habit of growth are very use- | ful for planting around the edge of | lower borders, The Lobelia does | best in light soil and where it does | not get too much sun. The first nam- i ed varieties being of a taller habit { of growth (one or two feet) are bet- ter suited for the centre of flower beds or borders. There are no sum- | mer decorative plants that can be | raised from seed that will make a Aner and more continuous display in the flower garden during summer than those named, if the seed 1s started early in a window, hot bed, or greenhouse, and the plants given even ordinary care and attention. If sown out of doors early in May they are very late in flowering. All the plants before named will also, be found very useful for helping to fill up window and verandah boxes, rus-' tic stands, and hanging baskets. Be- ing of a perennial or lasting nature, many of them can 'also be success frosts, and placed in pots or boxes for indoor decbration during early winter. Those late in flowering, such as Ageratum, Snapdragon and Pen- stemons are especially useful for this purpose. Seed should be saved from the best types of all of the plants named during the summer months for the next spring sowing. The Dusty Miller does not seed the first year, as a rule, may also be obtained fram most of are kept in a cool window during winter, Tall Plants for Centre. | If a few tall plants for the centre, | or at the back of a large, border are required, plant a few seeds of the | Ricinus (Castor Oil Bean). These may be planted about an inch "decp in shallow boxes early indoors in April, and transplanted singly into 3 or 3%-inch flower pots when three or four leavés are started; or one bean may be put «in the same sized flower pot mentioned, and the plants allowed to grow there until planted out in the garden about the second week in June. All of the seedling plants started early" as suggested | should be transplanted when from 'four to six leaves have developed in- to good soil singly into 2% or 3-inch | pots or be set about 1% inches apart | in shallow, well drained boxes filled with good soil. Some Annuals Suggested. | A few varieties of annuals such | as Asters, Chinese Pinks, Phlox Drummondi, Zinnia, Balsams, Mari- gold, Coreopsis, Scabiosa, Calendula (pot Marigold), Mignonette, Schizan- thus (Butterfly flower) and other varieties if needed, may be sown in- doors early in April for early flower- ing or they may be sown out in the border about the second week in May | for later flowering. A great many annuals such ac Poppies, Nastur- tiums, Ten Week Stock, Silene Ar- meria (Catchfly), Gysophila elegans, Nigella (Love in a Mist), Annual Larkspur, and other similar annuals do not transplant or succeed as weil when sown indoors. It is best to sow these last named out of doors early | in May where they are to grow. | Sweet Alyssum and the Purple and | White Candytufts are among the | best dwarf edging annuals we have, and should also be sown out of doors | early in May. Early sown Sweet | Alyssum is often attacked by the small black flea beetle, that com- pletely destroys the plants. Plants from seed sown later (end of May) are seldom attacked. The best rem- edly for this flea bettle is to spray the plants with a solution of Paris Green, made by first well mixing a small teaspoonful of Paris Green (or Arsenate of Lead) in a tablespoonful or two of cold water, then ada water to make one gallon. Dusting the plants with Pyrethrum Powder, wood ashes, or soot are also good remedies. Another good annual, es- pecially for a hot, sunny position is Portulacea. The seed is best sown broadcast on finely raked sofl, and the seed raked in very lightly. Thin the plants later on from four to six inches apart. If you have a dry, hot, sunny position where very few plants will grow, try some Portulacca. If a few early Nasturtium plants, ¢- of any climbing*annual are wanted for window or verandah boxes, put two or three seeds in soil in three-inch pots in April, they will transplant much better from pots than from | boxes. Nasturtiums are one of the best annuals for window boxes. The seed may also be sown rather thick- ly in window boxes out of doors ear- ly in May, and the plants thinned to about six inches apart later on. All annuals may be transplanted to ad- vantage singly into small pots. This list of annuals given may be extended considerably, those men- tioned are among the most satisfac- tory for the average flower grower. ~The late Wm. Hunt, 0. A. College, Guelph. | Manure.

One and a half mil- lion may not seem to be a large pumber, but if wc were to place the horses in the Dominion head and tail in one long parade line, tHey would reach from Halifax to Vancou- ver.

Abernethy's Shoe Store asin 32.95 differs from the mechanical faim motor in that it is self feeding, self maintaining, self reproducing, and self controlling, These qualities give the horse a tremendous advantage over the mechanlieal dovices used for field work on the farms and for haulage on the roads. The Horse Largely a Self Feeder. | Self feeding means a lot., There | | is no carburator on the horse; nor | | { fully dug up in the autumn before | aF® 8Park plug required. Green grass, | | good clean hay and oats, the pro- ducts of the fields in which the horse | labors, produce the energy that keeps | up the horse's body, and keeps him | going as a motor while labor is be- | ing performed. | The Animal Motor a Reliable One. | Within the horse's body cavity | there is a wonderful self maintain- ing motor. The heart, the lungs, and i the digestive organs make an Fogine | y. This hidden motor made of flesh, blood | and" tissue keeps tight, and makes | its own repairs. Furthermore, the | horse motor develops pep, or places | in reserve energizing substances that | may be used on demand. The mech- | anical motor when at rest does not improve nor grow stronger as does | the horse, but frequently wastes or rusts. The high cost of gasoline, oil | and motor meshanis service, together | with' the too freqlient neglect that is accorded tractors on many farms, has reacted to the advantage of the | faithful horse. Old Dobbin Has Horse Sense. i Old Dobbin is also possessed of horse sense. No mechanical motor yet devised has possessed this func- | tion. Fuel for the horse motor Is' grown on the farm, and all profits remain on the farm. There is no tax on it either.--Lionel Stevenson, Secretary Dept, of Agriculture, Toronto, : ANNUAL INVENTORY. Keep a Record of 'What You Own and What It Is Worth. The man on the.land can learn much about his own farming opera- tions by taking an inventory each year. No form of record will give | 80 much information about the year's work as will an inventory properly taken at a definitely fixed date each year. The usual time for taking an Inventory of the farm business is in March, when there is least feed and unsold produce on hand. The in-| ventory of any ordinary farm can | be taken in a half day, so there is no excuse on account of shortage of time. The information gleaned about the farm business through the study | made possible by inventory taking | is worth many times the expenditure of time and effort. For conveniece in keeping the! farm inventory any blank record | book with pages wide enough to per- | mit spacing for a number of columns can be used, and if ruled to accom- modate the entries for a number of years so much the better.--L. Steven- son, Secretary, Dept. of Agriculture, Toronto. How to Select the Breeding Ram. Select a ram that possesses scale, but not to the extent that he is lack- ; ing in quality. A well-developed ram | as a rule transmits these characteris | tics to his offspring. He should be masculine in appearance, which is in- | dicated by the carriage and boldness | of head, short face, good width be- | tween the eyes, large open nostrils and an absence of feminine charac- ters in general. ; A ram should show good strength of back and depth of body, especially through the chest, with good width between fore legs and well sprung ribs. He should be closely made, that is, good depth, width of body, and short on legs. The fleéce should also be consider- ed as to density, fineness and free- dom from black fibres, with a skin that is pink in color, indicating that he is in good condition. Purchase a pure-bred ram if sible, as blood will count and mark- ed results will be seen in the quality of lambs. Breed character should be considered as it is very important, more especially in pure-bred flocks.

This play is not new to Kingston, but the fact that] Rex was playing it was enough. { The play was as good as their] best, and that's saying a lot when you speak of Rex and his co-stars. The plot has plenty of action, fun, thrills, love, tears, and some more fun, and concerns the adventures of a wilful little Irish girl answering to the name of Margaret----to her ar-| istocratic "auwat," and "Peg to her friends--who drifts into the English country home of her poor-rich re-| latives.

Then the fun really begins, and it's one continual uproar to the end of the chapter. Zana Vaughn plays the title role of "Peg" in rare style, and she is ably 'supported by William Seymour as Jerry Adair. Rex as Cousin Al- eric is his usual and funny self; while Florence Winters and "Billy" Yule as Aunt Monoca and Mr. Hawkes, the family lawyer, are also splendid. During the intermissfons, Hazel Williams and William BSey- mour, with the Park Kiddies, ren- dered "delightful vaudeville acts. On Friday and Saturday, the Rex company will produce "The Three | Twins" in place of "Peg 0' My] Heart," owing to the fliness of Miss | Vaughn, who played he. . difficult role on Thursday evening, rgainst the orders of her doctor, so thal her Kingston friends should not be d.s- appointed.
