A solid mus should be Avoided, I screen effect being more desirable. Every home should have privacy, and in shrubs We have the answer to this requirement. The founda- tion line of any building needs some kind of special treatment, as I softening of the severe architec- tural lines must be secured. The rigid and often unsightly founda- tion line must be rendered at- tractive. No better medium is offered than a liberal planting of flowering shrubs. A shrubbery planting at the base of any build.. iing makes I very harmonious picture. In planting, care must be exercised in order that the material used is not grouped too close to the building. Hints About Grpuping _ 1 In Article 10 Canadian farm prices in almost all lines were shown , to be about 45 per cent 19% than those obtained by U.S.A, farmers. At lube same time, Is disclosed in Senate debates, the U.S.A. farmer can I buy a whole range of supplies for farm and home, tractors, farm implev imemf, eleitrical equipment, or?" and so forth, at a price about 30 per ‘Mn. - ' an ' MA A_-L = - ___J:,, r n . .. ---.

Everywhere in tho landscape there is opportun- ity to use some kind of shrub, as they may thrive where nothing elttt will grow. A A - - SHRUBS By John F. Clark Ont.

The answer is found in Htutsard, Feb, 3, in the address of John Bracken which will be quoted later. DEALS CONFIRMED T Getting away from the domestic picture to again open up the ques- tion of the British agreement: for further detailed discussion, it will be of interest to quote the main eommitmentsy in these by-lateml arrangements. The Minister of Agriculture and the Minister of Trade and Commerce for Canada arranged with Mr. Strachey. the British Minister of Food, to mpply the following quantities of Canadian food- stuffs for the periods mentioned. MAIN CONTRACTS Under the Wheat Board. a total of 600 million bushels of wheat for a tentative 4-year delivery. Under the Marketing Act, the following: 120 million lbs. of beef annually down to 1949; 10 million lbs. of muttxm and lamb to 1947; 83 million dozen eggs for the next two years: 600,000 cases of processed milk products in 1948 and 125 million lbs. of cheese down to May, 1948. Discussion on these will continue as we go along. --"'------------------=c'cLLCi", Later on the matter of parity in farm prices will be taken up for it enbered into the House debates on these British agreements. Farmers across the border have won I parity position as the above figaros indicate. That desired goal it still to be achieved in Canada. On the (iiGae/t level it will be Been, therefore, that the Canadian farmer as to both prices and costs is in an unfavorable position compared with his neighbor arms the line. MAIN FACTORS Now in regard to the situation generally and the British agreements particularly, the question is, have the constantly changing policies of our present government led to the agricultural stability and production “moan“ 0,. msn..'.-.,,"., A- .,W, _ 'tm - . . - ..._ me, VrTkNLt “a. n.ul|nllelll, can am: no Ionn, at a pure about. 30 per cent less than these cont the Canadian farmer. And the U.S.A. farmer retains his freedom in a free market. BASIC EXCHANGE _ Bringing the matter down to a concrete basis so that the position may be better understood by the bud working farmer of the back concessions, we quote from “M debates, P. 1742: "A tractor bought in Canada costs 1,225 bu. of good hard wheat; in the U.S.A. only 710 bu. The same tractor costs 11 finished, 1,000-lb. steers in Canada, only 6 in the U.S.A. For the same machine it takes 46 select, 210 lb. Canadian hogs and only 26 in the U.S.A. PARITY QUESTION . But first it would be well to present the main factors in the agree- ments as they affect Canadian farmers generally in regard to the prices arranged tor them, not by them, and the controls that now govern them. It should be comidered fair to contrast the farm position in Canada at this time with the position of farmers in the U.S.A. PRICES AND COSTS These British Agreements were later laid before parliament for rtrtificat'um. The debates that ensued have revealed the attitude taken by the parties most interested. They will be discussed as we go along. These views will include those of the parties in the House, the British Ministry of Food, the Canadign Federation of Agriculture and probably the views of outside countries. A very fair picture will thus be achieved. FAIR CONTRAST Weston Horticultural Society In planting shrubs, the roots should never he permitted to dry out, either before or after Punting.

The ornamental effect of good flower.. ing shrubs, will prove a. valuable addition to the grounds when used as a hedge. The Spiraea Van Houttei may be used in such a way with pleasing results. [ Shrubs that have a number of features should be chosen, the aim being colour, foliage berries and flowers. Those with coloured bark, such Is the Dogwoods. or with bright foliage such as Spine: Aurea. lend beauty to the garden or ltuyJse.ape. This permits of the use of many a fine shrub or tree, like Kokter Blue Spruce, as a specimen planting, Such a shrub may assume large proportions and be kept in a ‘symmetrical condition. The Mag. ‘nolia is greatly admired because of its beautiful large flowers which cover the branches before the leaves appear in spring. The shrub always causes comment and should be used as a specimen on the south side of the building, where it will receive I measure of protection. It is often advisable to entirely do away with fences and substitute u L. - - _ - TIMES AND GUIDE.,WESTON The shrubs which bloom in the spring and early Bummer, Ire bait pruned immediately after they have flowered, as spring pruning would mean the removal of hundreds of flowering buds that would open later. Simply remove the oldest wood from all sides, leaving 'the bush in A. pleasing shape, and permitting the young wood to grow into natural out- lines. This apglies to such shrubs le the Spiraea 'an Houttei (Bridal 'iWreath). l Such shrubs as the Hydrangeas. which bloom in late summer and autumn, are usually pruned in spring, as this shrub flowers on ioung' wood made the same war bum shrubs as the Hydrangeas. which bloom in late summer and autumn, are usually pruned in spring, as this shrub flowers on young wood made the same year. The Japanese Barberry may be lightly trimmed to whatever shape is desired. I pruning Lilacs remove suckers w beside the arent pl back the 'telf, atte it blooms on the to provide plenty of room between trees and shrubs, as large roots will militate against the well being of the smaller plants, while at the same time heavy shade will injure the shrubs and prevent them from doing their best. T MG, using shrubs u I. founda- tion planting, it is well to keep them out a short distance from the wall, BO that they may escape the drip from the root and the reflected heat from the bricks.
