Learn to know the flower and vegetable plants from the weeds and get rid of the latter quickly. All seedlings have two sets of leaves, the first are, seed leaves, simple affairs...that usually have no resemblance to the perm- anent leaves that follow. By glanc- ing down the vegetable row or at the more less regular •clumps where the flower seeds were sown,' one will notice that there is more or less a pattern of the same kind of plants and these of course are the ones from the seed sown and the ones we want to protect and grow. With larger seeds, beans for instance, which we sow evenly two to four inches apart, the plants come from them come spaced in this way and we know exactly where to look for them when we start to weed or cultivate. That is one very good reason for straight rows and careful sowing in the vegetable- garden. Healthiness is Best Protection '$eat insurance against bugs and disease is 'a thriving and healthy garden. Keep the weeds eliminat- ed as they often provide home and food for pests. Flowers and vege- tables should be cultivated regu- larly and thinned out where neces- sary to promote vigorous growth. Sometimes, however, in spite of our best efforts the garden is at- tacked. On the first sign of a wilt- ed or eaten leaf, or of cut worms, tomato worms, aphids or slugs or other enemies, one should lose no time in getting out the duster, sprayer or bait. It's a lot easier and cheaper to check one of these attacks before they really get underway. And it is not difficult with all the modern materials available. Every seed house is well stocked with sprays, dusts and other con- trols. Very often there is a corn, bination of chemicals, ready pack- aged, which will handle any bug or garden pest; those that eat holes in the foliage, those that suck the juices or those that at- tack fruit or roots. Remember that in this as in other types of war- fare the best defense is to attack, don't wait until the bugs are in complete control before starting the offensive. Keep On Planting The gardener who gets the most satisfaction never plants all the seed of any Rower or vegetable at the same time. He spreads out the plantings making at least two and sometimes three or four from 10 1111111tIIItI111tintI1111I1uII11111U11im11ii We write all lines of INSURANCE Fire Auto Wind Liability and Life Manufacturers Life Insurance John A.

In this way he is making sure that if the first planting gets frozen or wash- ed out or tramped on, he will still have one in reserve. Mgre impor- tant, he will have something com- ing on all the time, fresh corn and peas not just for a few days, but for many weeks and bouquets of beautiful flowers too. With plant- ings well spread out the garden should be blooming and producing abundantly from late in June until snow. Cure For Bareness . New homes are apt to look pret- ty bare for several years until trees and shrubbery start to grow but they needn't if one uses plen- ty of big quick growing annuals. In a few weeks these will make quite a showing. To take the place of perennial vines, we can plant scarlet runner beans, hops, morn- ing glories or other gpick growing climbers. 'For shrubbery we go through the seed catalogue and select those things that grow two to five feet tall, giant marigolds or zinnias, cosmos, tithonia, cypress, dahlias, cleomes, celosia 'and can- nas, are some of them. These big bushy annuals, planted in clumps within two or three feet of walls and fences, will change • a new house from a raw building into a real home and do it in weeks, not years. To Keep Off the Grass If there is a lot of walking across the lawn, something like flag stones, brick, cinder or gravel may have to be used for a path, as only such material will stand heavy and constant wear. But one should go easy with cinders and gravel. If they are loose there is bound to be trouble with the lawn- mower. If combined with some- thing to bind them and then roll- ed or tamped down they may be satisfactory. Brick, however, are more attractive.

A total of nearly 80 years' ex- perience is represented by the staff of the service department of Boyes Farm Supply. The staff is headed by George McGavin, who learned the machinery business nearly 40 years ago with the late J, F. Daly. Mr. McGavin is known to hundreds of area farmers who have learned to depend on his conscientious workmanship. Shown here with modern Mas- sey -Ferguson units are (from the left), John Nigh, Dave MacLean, Alex Boyes, George McGavin and John Boyes. Boyes' Farm Supply, which this year . manks its fifth anniversary, was established 'March 1, 1956. Handling the Massey -Ferguson line, the firm has continued to sup- ply equipment and service to an increasing number of customers each year. To provide an improved service the firm this year began a com- FURROW AND FALLOW By FAIRBAIRN You may have heard that sev- eral hundred thousand Canadian farmers reFently opened a kitchen —in Toronto, of all places. Why on earth would all those men of the soil, and dairymen, at that, want a kitchen in a big metropoli- tan city? On the surface it may sound odd but actually there are several very good AND sound rea- sons for it. This is the latest de- velopment in an advertising and promotion campaign undertaken by Dairy Farmers of Canada 10 years ago. The money to support it is raised by voluntary contribu- tions from milk producers from coast to coast through the June Set Aside which is being made right now. Pierre Cote, president of the Na- tional Dairy Council of Cana„da (the organization of processors, distributors and manufacturers of dairy foods) said the other day that surplusses of certain dairy products—mainly butter at pres- ent—were not caused by overpro- duction of milk as some have main- tained but by under -consumption. Members of his organization will spend more than $6 million this year to promote the sale of their products. The producers, through Dairy Farmers of Canada advertis- ing and their Dairy Foods Service Bureau will spend nearly half a million dollars so you can see that farmers are not expecting the trade to do it all for them. Inci- dentally over one-quarter of the members of Mr. Cote's organiza- tion are producer -owned co-opera- tives so it might almost be fair to say that farmers will spend about $2 million dollars. How does the new kitchen fit in- to the picture? Well, when the Dairy Foods Service Bureau was first formed a young lady from the west by the Fume of Jean Fewster, was hired to act as Marie Fraser, the home economist of the Bureau. She developed and tested new recipes for dairy foods and thought up new ways of using these nutritious and palatable foods. Did you ever wonder what kind of a diet we would have without milk... and.. all its products? When Marie had some new re- cipes ready they would he distri- buted to Canadian homemakers through all media and in phamph- let form. However, she had to do the developing and testing in bor- rowed kitchens which didn't al- ways have all the facilities she would like to have had. Now there are three Marie Frasers in the Bur- eau so Dairy Farmers decided they needed a kitchen of their own— and it's a dandy, thanks to gen- erous contributions by many Can - Monster "White Elephant” AUCTION' SALE WE Need YOUR Help !

The topic will be, "How to get more money for the Ontario Farmer." From re- marks I have been hearing with increasing frequency, it would ap- pear to be a timely subject, From Government statistics, loans for farm improvement are increasing. In 1960, they amount- ed to $101.8 million and the gov- ernment is increasing the amount available for this purpose from 300 million to 400 million. About 80 per cent of the loans for 1960 were for the purchase of farm machinery. This amounted to roughly 70 million in 1959 which is the latest -figure I have at the moment. On this basis, it was the Government that paid for the new farm equipment in 1960. However, I realize that there must have been increased sales in 1960 because undoubtedly some farmers were able to pay for the equipment they bought, but not very many. Just where are we heading? I can remember when tractors start- ed coming into this district. In those days the farmers, to a very large extent, paid for the tractor when it arrived. The rest probab- ly gave a Short term note for a smallj balance. They used their past savings to pay for this new equipment. Now the tractor is worn out and the savings have not been replac- ed. The new equipment is to be paid for not by a short term note, but by payments over four or five years. The farmer's saving disappeared with the first tractor; the second one has used up his credit. How is he going to buy the next one? It is rather amusing to hear the criticism of government subsidies to farmers in the light of the above. I wonder who got the bene- fit' of this farm improvement money? If the money had not been available the farmer `would have gotten by somehow with the old machinery. True, he wouldn't have adian manufacturers. Today's Tidbit: Did you hear about the student who, wrote on an exam paper: "She's going to be married next month. She is get- ting her torso ready." produced as much, but then he wouldn't have had to face surplus- es. What about the machinery companies? Their sales would have been cut perhaps by more than half. I wonder who is subsidizing who? How can we change this situa- tion? In an article in a recent -Chate- laine magazine, it appears that the women of India are bringing aboht a great change for the better. Per- haps we men have been running the show too long! I doubt that our tax bill would be almost three times dui food bill if the women were spending the money with the same care that they devote to their food budget. ODORLESS CLEAN BURNING FURNACE.
