Garden- Graph | Trees suffer from lack of sufficient water and frequently die of thirst. The drought experienced in many parts of the country this year will cause seri­ ous damage unless tree owners water their trees frequently and intelligently. CIRCLE DETERMINED Outsi de drip of leaves // V^ATEWNG / HOLE'S Treatment of trees dying of. drought As illustrated in the Garden-Graph the feeding roots of a tree are located as far out from the trunk as the spread of the branches.

Born in New York 58 years ago, he is half-Spanis'h. His mother'1 was an Irish schoolteacher who married a sculptor-musician, De Valera was two years old when his father died. His mother remarried and young “Dev” was sent back to Guide Ireland to be cared for by his Uncle. He was brought up to be a Ca­ tholic priest but became, instead, a tea­ cher of mathematics and a revolution­ ary. * * * LIFE SPARED BY BRITAIN. His American origin saved his life when he was captured by the British after the Easter Week rebellion in Dublin in 1916. Most of the revolu­ tionary leaders were executed, but de Valera’s life was spared because he was American-born. He is said to eat, sleep and live for his ideal of “a united Ireland,” but may yet see the day when he will be ‘passionately grateful that the six coun­ ties of Ulster are not yet part of Eire. For some of Britain’s crack troops are stationed in Ulster, and if Hitler in­ vades Eire, these British troops will be vitally necessary to save Ireland-— and de Valera. 1 1'1 " i ' , * • * * * GERMAN PILOTS. In the recent wrecking of a hotel at Istanbul, when the British Ambassador No Bulgaria, George Rendel,' nearly lost his life,'it was revealed that the bomb had been made to look like a radio and'placed in the baggage of the British party. This isn’t the first time things of this kind have happened." During the last war, thermos bottles were used as bombs, and a railway bridge in Canada was blown up by a bomb of this type, placed by a German plotter. The idea was, naturally, that a ther­ mos bottle would never be suspected, even if it were discovered. This is using guile to kill. But lives have been saved by utilising familiar things in unfamiliar ways. * * * SAVED BY A LEG OF MUT­ TON! Some years ago, the Atlantic flyer, Stanley Hauser, fell into the sea. His plane floated and he managed to keep alive, until rescued, for day by— -of all things—catching fish by means of his compass needle, bent into a hook. * When a girl living in the North of Scotland was assaulted by a man, she managed to grab a fire extinguisher and squirted the chemical contents in her attacker’s face, causing him to plunge away in anguish. And, prosaically enough, there is the case of an English butcher who de­ feated an armed thief by knocking him unconscious with a leg of mutton!

TESTED RECIPES CONSERVE FOR VICTORY Help Britain; eat 50% less pork, ba­ con and ham. Fortunate, indeed, is the housewife- w.ho is ready for every occasion with a variety of home-made jams, con­ serves, and relishes on her pantry shelf. . , This year it is particularly important that every scrap of fruit and vegetable be stored for later use. The question of containers is often a factor to be considered but for pick­ les and jams air-tight jars are not ne­ cessary. Any" glass or pottery recep-' taeles can be used. Sealing is done" with paraffin wax or the new'cello­ phane seals. In Jams, conserves and jellies sugar, vinegar, salt and spices act as preserv- stives. Long boiling also aids in keep­ ing as it concentrates the product. There is no end to the variety of “preserves”. New mixtures give new colours and new 'taste, new thrills. The experienced cook should experi­ ment for herself, but the following re­ cipes developed by the Consumer Sec­ tion, Marketing Service, Dominion De­ partment of Agriculture, are unusual and interesting in flavour and texture; Cherry-Apple Conserve cups cups 'Cups pups 4 cup water Mix cherries, apple and water.
