out-of-doors garden, These
groupings may well be centered
around a favorite plant,
Among the dominant foliage
plants of large size, there are
several handsome ones which are
easy to grow, such'as the rubber
plant or its variegated form, the
aspidistra, wax plant or hoya,
dieffenbachia, fiddleleaf fig, and
the aralia.
A small amount of space is
required for a philodendron vine
which will thrive for months in a
bottle of water on a wall or a
window ledge. The vine may be
allowed to climb, trail or be
trained to a simple trellis '
according to the space available.
Different patterns of greenery
may be displayed by a very few
plants.
Other good vines which may
be used are the English ivy,
kangaroo vine, German ivy and
the grape ivy.
Devices and materials that
may be used for staging are
cabinets, trays, baskets, pot
covers, rocks, bamboo, hanging
devices, ornamental pots, plant
stands with or without
fluorescent fixtures, fibre-glass,
antique utensils, window shelves,
glass bricks, tiles, pebbles,
treebark and textiles.
The special plant stands,
fitted with fluorescent light
tubes, offer an excellent
opportunity to the apartment
gardener. They are sold •in many
designs or you can utilize your
own benches or furniture to
which you can attach the lights.
One of the most interesting
modules for displaying plants I
have seen was made from an old
television set.
Where humidity is a limiting
factor for plant growth, a
terrarium type of container,
such as a large fish globe,
aquarium or brandy snifter, will
provide the necessary
environment.
BY A. B. BUCKLEY
YOU don't have to be without
plants even if you don't have
private house or space for a
garden. There are many fine
plants wich will thrive under
light and temperature limitations
in many apartments.
At a garden show not long
ago I saw an exhibit of 'garden
modules', including ,a series of
texture gardens for the
apartment. This series provided
many ideas for combinations of
plants and materials other than
those recommended in some
landscape designs where modules
are now beeoming fashionable.
In module landscape.
gardening, a few simple elements
are combined to make a garden
in a small area confined by
wood, rock, metal or other
materials. A series of such units
or modules may comprise °an
over-all garden pattern or section
of a garden. Any shallow
container is suitable for the
indoor module.
There were two types of
modules exhibited in the
apartment class — . those
composed of units in which the
plants were set or planted, and
those consisting of plants in
various containers staged
together to form a balanced
picture.
In building the set or planted
type, first provide drainage by
using gravel or limestone chips
on the bottom of the container;
on top of this place a layer of
good light soil mixture. With soil
from the garden centers, mix
two parts of sand before using.
After the plants are set in the
soil, spread a thin layer of sand
over the top.
Select a few plants which are
compact — such succulents as
dwarf sansevieria, haworthia,
jade plant, peperomia, hen and
chickens, echeveria, crassula and
sonie of the many kinds of cacti.
Cacti are the easiest
apartments.
These are relatively slow-growing
and do not get out of bounds.
Try to form a complete
garden in miniature with the
plants playing a special part, The
jade plant, sansevieria, and some
of the taller sedums and cacti
will simulate trees; add some
moss for grass and smaller plants
for shrubs.
The plants should not occupy
more than one-third of the
surface area in the container so
that you will have space among
the plants to work out an
interesting color and textural
pattern with such materials as
pebbles, gravel or granite chips.
You may wish to use an accent
of rock, driftwood or some
other object as part of the
design.
is called Mulberry Heart Disease;
when the liver tissues are found
damaged, it is Hepatosis
Diaetetica, and when the skeletal
muscle is affected, the condition
is called Nutritional Muscular
Dystrophy. A fourth condition,
Iron Toxemia may also occur
after the administration of iron
to piglets, either by injection or
orally. 'Death occurs within a
few hours, and may affect some
or all piglets in a litter.
Other symptoms and
problems suggesting a deficiency
are excessive bleeding during
castration, hemorrhaging anemia
from internal bleeding, and
gastric ulcers.
There are no simple or
complete answers as to why this
nutritional deficiency should
now become a problem, says Mr.
Simmons. However, swine
management is changing rapidly,
Since most swine are now raised
under complete confinement,
nutrients found on pasture are
no longer available to correct
mistakes in the ration. More
farmers are using simplified
corn-soybean meal rations,
without including alfalfa meal or
other basic feeds. There are
important differenceS in vitamin
You may redesign your
garden whenever you are
inspired by some new materials
or plants. By the use of mirrors
you can form a lake. You can
create a Japanese garden effect
with the small figures and
bridges sold by florists for
miniature gardens.
Good examples of outdoor
modules may frequently be seen
in conjunction with larger
modern buildings where stones
and plants are used to form
module units.
Plants themselves in various
containers may be staged to
form a large one-unit or many
unit module. This staging of
plants often adds greatly to their
interest and gives an 'objet d'art'
effect or a direct reference to an
E content in these feeds and this
should be taken into
consideration when determining
the ration.
Modern methods of corn
harvesting and storing may result
in less vitamin E than was once
the case. Early harvesting,
mechanical damage to the wet
kernel with exposure of the
germ to the 'air, plus, in some
instances, the heat of drying
may result in appreciable loss of
vitamin E activity. Other factors
that destroy the germ inlcude
early freezing, grain stored for
over a year, and any grain that
has been sprouted.
A second factor relating to
the problem is the low selenium
concentration in most Ontario
soils. The amount of vitamin E
required in the diet seems to be
tlYe''§elenitini' levels
are low.
Since selenium cannot be
added to feed, 10,000 I.U. of
vitamin E per ton of feed
appears to be the most common
level recommended. Where pig
losses have occurred this is
boosted to 20,000 I.U.
Injectable preparations as well as
some that can be used in
drinking water are also available,

A few years ago, vitamin
E-selenium deficiency was not
regarded as an important
problem for Ontario swine
producers. Although many
farmers still have not seen the
, disease, it is here and can cause
pig deaths, says Paul Simmons,
Swine Specialist, Ontario
Department of Agriculture and
Food, Markdale.
Significant losses were
recorded last winter, particularly
in Southwestern Ontario. This
year, several swine producers are
reporting substantial losses of
pigs weighing between 20 and 70
pounds.
The most alarming evidence
of vitamin E-selenium
defieiencys sudden death.
Apparently healthy pigs are
found dead. Frequently they are
recently weaned pigs penned
with pigs from other litters.
Closer examination of living pigs
may reveal muscular weakness,
depression, signs of anemia,
jaundice and edema. When
forced to exercise, they move
reluctantly, gasping for air. A
similar condition caused by the
deficiency can also be observed
in calves and Iambs.

heart tissue damage, the disease
