Geranium . Care
Winter, Summer
The geranium has been for
many years* a very popular
house plant. These are some
suggestions from r:ticulturi.1-
ists with the Ontario Depart -
inert of Agriculture on its
care.
To grow geraniums ,success-
fully in the • house, start new
cuttings each year. Depe'niding
on: when you make the cuttings,
you can have geranium in
flower in the winter or summer.
For winter figwering, roast
the cuttings in the spring, place
in 21/2 inch pats, and repot as
they grow until they are in sik
-inch pods. In swmm.er, the pods
may be .set outdoors and kept
well watered.
To prevent straggly growth,
start to pinch, When the plant
is about five inches high, and
continue until at least six
branches have formed near the
base.
hithe fall. before frost, bring
the plant indoors to a tempera-
ture of 65 to 75 degrees F. In
winter, keep the plant slightly
pot-bound and feed just enough
to keep the foliage a bright
green coIar. '
For spring flowering, root
cuttings in the early fall in
sand. When they are nicely
rooted, place the cuttings in
21/2 inch pats and repot the
plants into larger pots as they
become root -bound.
A good patting mixture is
seven pants soil, three parts or-
ganic matter, and 'two parts
sand.
Old geraniums may be stored
in a cool cellar for the winter.
Leave. as much soil as possible
on the roots to keep the plants
almost dry. Towards spring re-
pot the planets, cut them back
part way, and give full light
and plenty of water. •
It' is important to remember
that the geranium is a sung -lov-
ing plant and will flower only
if it receives good light.

One very stoney wild morning, :Lucy and her sister
Jean Were bundled up and' ready for Scheel. Just as they
stePrecl out the fent dbor, ;Bob l`lclVf'uzit+ay was passing,,
hares' Put to Make a gopd Patti. "Fellow me," he said, "I'm
going to the 'school." He went across Main Street and
' .'>iollowed the road • to the school.
Lucy and . Jean held hands and tramped through snow
up to their levees. Tt was such a b114.ard latah toe' couldn'rt
see Mr. 'McMurray 'ahead of them, butthey mold hew him
talking to his hoese. And whiffle . they turned theta' backs
to get their breath, the snow filled the. cut made by the
wooden plough--momafter it had passed.
At last they got 'to the school on time! Mas. James
Ferguson (teacher in the primary moan) was there. She
hadn't expected airy pupils and was warmly' clad in a skim
and what was known in those .days . as a dti jacket.
And she was thawing herself out at the hot air register.
(Strange thing about that odd runviet*. It was often so
holt skirts would enxoke if ane stood on the ragister so long,
while 15 feet away' from it one perished with cold;)
By the time we were'divested of all the extra wrappings
like long' black over staekings, rubbers, mufflers, mints,
stocking caps, etc., sone other little folk had arrived.
Lucy cannot recall whether there.,were six ar nine.
One of the pleasures that day was eating our • lunch
at school. Motiher, sent it 'across to us with a gean of hot
cocoa packed in nenvspa'pers. In the afternoon three more
pupil's arrived.
'Cowrie four o'clock, John Guilford who worked for the
'doctor was sent to bring Lucy and Jean. One or ,two parents
came to take their offspring hone The stone had not
abated, if anything it had grown in fury. So Mrs. Ferguson
'arranged with the teacher upstairs iia have senior pupils
see little ones right to their homes uptown', and she took
those going 'downtown to theiir homes.
Yes, it was a wild and woolly month! It was a whale
winter crammed int() one Month. And the drifts were just
as high, the piton; holes just as deep, and the roads pied so
high in spots that fences had to be taken down and tacks
made through the fields, just as if we'd had snow for four
anon'tihs.
The roads then were not ploughed out. They were brok-
en with
rork-
enwith teams of heavy 'horses and sleighs. The snow packed
down and the tracks 'built up, and; in some .particularly bad
spots there was only a single track. One which Lucy recalls
was past Porter's (naw Mrs. 5. Hohner's on the Blue Water
Highway) and another on the Clinton road froth, Kennedjy's
corners 'to the GTR. Station.
It is 'to be hoped that the March winds aregentle this
year, for if a had snow storm came and filed in between
the high banks of snow pushed back by Ithe snowploughs,
traffic could easily be 'tiled up for days'.
Lticy rambled a bit alt the track last week when she
wrote that the plane which flew in milk in 1947 ]landed on
Clan Gregor Square.
J'. E. Hovey informed Lucy that itt happened the lash
week in March. McManus Dairy telephoned him that Keith,
Hopkinson, Goderich, would fly milk tb Bayfield and land
on the river ice, . and Mr. Hovey was made responsible
to see that it went to families with babies . only.
Mr. Hopkinson used skits on his plane and taxied up
to the fishermen's dock oit the north side. Mr. Hovey met
him with two toboggans, and they and 'the muck were hauled
over 'the snow to his car on the 'highway.
