Dri EXTRA CHOICE ON HORTICULTURE William P, Macoun, of Ottawa, | Speaks at the Dairy f School. I sli eulturist, gave on Monday night, the first lecture of a series which is to | be given by the Kingston Horticul- | tural Society. The lecture, which | was illustrated with lantern slides, was held in the Dairy School and was very well attended. The speak- | er was a man perhaps better quali- | fied than anyone else in Canada to deal with horticulture in general | and he succeeded In meking his | subject very attractive and benefic- | ial to his audience. Prof. J. Mac- Gillivray, the president of the 'so- clety, presided. * Mr. Macoun did not attempt any| get lecture but confined himself to | giving many helpful suggestions | along popular lines. Among other | things he said that in the past there in the centre of the garden but it was found that when they grew they shaded the garden to such an extent tbat practically nothing else would grow. He suggested planting the trees near the 'fence or near a shed or the house so that the central part of the garden would get plenty of sunlight. "Grapes should be planted in a part of the garden where they will get plenty of gsunMght," said the speaker, "and they should be pruned severely so that there will not be,an excess of foliage to keep the sun from the fruit." Raspberries should be planted at one side or at one end of the garden, the Domniinion Horticulturist sug- gested, so that they might more éasily be kept under control. Rhu- barb and and asparagus should go fu the sunny end or side of the gar- den, The spot where there was the greatest amount of heat was the right place to pfant tomatoes. Mr. | Macoun advocated training them up on stakes and pinching out some of the side shoots so that the fruit on the main stems would get a better chance. It was possible, he believed, to very successfully combine the flow- er garden and the vegetable garden if proper attention was given to planting before either garden was laid-out. To develop the garden at the back of the lot and leave the front mostly in grass with a few shrubs, was 'a suggestion he made for better gardens. Among other miscellaneous sug- gestions given, was one that young apple trees, just from the nursery, should be pruned until there were only from three to six main branches and no two of these form- ing a crotch. Mr. Macoun advised his hearers to havé plenty of cour- age in the first few years with young trees and not to be afraid tonpub out the surplus wood. To nlp the céntre branch when the tree was comparatively young made a more graceful tree, he said. It is possible to have rhubarb all winter if in the fall a couple of plafits are put in a box with some soil or some moss and put in a dark corner of the cellar, The plants should be kept watered and at a temperature of about fifty degrees. Mr. Macoun pad blank sheets passed through the audience and anyone who wished could write down a question, which he answer- ed. In this way much valuable in- formation regarding specific pro- blems was gained. n---------- Township Councils Council Mecting. The Howe Island council met on Mareh 22nd.

Athens, March 29.--From long residence in Eastern lands as a phy- sician, and as secretary to a British government official, Rev. C. J. Cur- tis, of this place, has been able to become acquainted with conditions ju the Orient as no tourist could over hope to be, so, from his inter esting experiences, he gave a most enlightening address at the Wo- men's Institute, on Saturday after- noon last. He said, in part, that one tan scarcely realize the advaniages of women in Western lands, until we cofitrast them with women of the Orient, but, tempermentally, people are much alike, the world around. One notices, there, the absence of wemen from the streets, from places of business, and energy where men only aré in evidence. The architec- ture is different, the windows are small, and barred; the streets are BATTOW. ¥ In country life, women take more than their share of work. The peo- ple live in little villages, and work the land contiguous to the place, selecting their "farm" by drawing juts each year. . Although polygamy is practised, yeu women. are not adverse to. the custom, as this addition to the family lightens their home duties, and brings a new interest into the menage. Many of the women are skilled in house-keeping, some are musicians, many are expert needle- women. 'The Mohammedan religion, with - ik Why pay as much or more for a lesser quality ?
