Roast turkeY, dressing, cran- berries and pumpkin pie will surely be the circler of the day in many homes nest Mpidty In the past when turkey din. tier in most homes were likely to be Thanksgiving and Christmas fare only, you probably bought a dressed turkey and cleaned it yourself, NeWadays, however, ' housewives -are apt to find little difference in the cost per pound of the de -it -yourself variety and a ready -to -cook turkey which haS been thoroughly cleaned, inside and out. Many large stores offer half a turkey for small family use or even a five or six pound bird. Plan at least a pound of turkey per person in order to have plen- ty left over for sliced cold turkey or one of the many delicious hot turkey dishes. Turkeys from $ to 18 pounds in weight are best, roasted at 325 degrees and those over 18 at 300 degrees, Allow about 3 hours for 8 pounds to 6-1/2 hours for 25 pounds. Sale realizes over $500 The rummage sale in the Exe- ter Legion Hall on Saturday sponsored by the Ladies Auxiliary to South Huron Hospital was a success. Buyers were eager and selling was brisk.

Cochrane are co -conveners of the ways and means commit- tee in charge of the sale and Mrs. E. D. Bell is president of the Auxiliary.

In doing this be sure the turkey is wrapped properly without puncturing. the foil, Wrap carefully in heavy duty foil, 18 -inch wide foil will wrap turkeys up to 16 pounds, For larger turkey splice two 18 -inch strips. , Place a few stalks of celery and onion slices for flavor in. centre of a long sheet of foil and place turkey breast on them, Brush all over with shortening. Plaee small folds of foil over the ends of legs, wingtips and tail to prevent puncturing, Bring long ends of foil up over the breast of the turkey' and over, lap three inches or more. Press this top foil down close to ,the turkey and bring the foil from underneath up over the top piece, Let it extend up 2 to 4 inches so drippings will not run into pan.

NOW'S THE TIME TO PLANT SPRING FLOWERS Plant hardy bulbs now for spring color show Planting bulbs about "twice the depth of their diameter"is not always the best garden rule, And what about the distance apart? A rule for this can be misleading, Here are some recommenda- tions from the Ontario Depart- ment for five favorite bulbs. Main St. group studies Angola At the October meeting of Main Street Evening Auxiliary held on Monday evening Mrs. Clara Wellington presented the study on Angola, Africa. The devotional was taken by Mrs. Gerald Skinner assisted by Mrs. Murray Neil and Mrs. Al- bert Bowen. Mrs. Anson Hansen favored with a solo.

Distance Bulb Depth Apart Narcissus '7" 6-12" Hyacinth Tulip 5,, 4" Snowdrop, 4" 2" Crocus 3-4" 2" In the case of heavy soils, plant from 1" to 11/2" closer to the surface. Nearly all bulbs do better on sandy loam, which drains bet- ter. That is why it is a good idea in a poorly drained soil to place sand in the bottom of the plant- ing hole. , This helps the soil drain better and also keeps the bulbs from decaying. What about food for bulbs? Use bonemeal. Spread it over the soil and work it in so that the basal roots can reach it. Planting times during Sept- ember vary with the area. How- ever, local distributors usually make a point of advertising the most suitable time. Protective mulches are only necessary in very cold sections and where open beds and bor- ders are used: Straw applied to a depth of 3-4 inches is the best material to use. Remove before plants are much more' than 1" high, Tulips are most easily 'winter -injured. Modern Beauty Salon 429 MAIN ST, PHONE 349 Monday to Friday 9-6 Tues. & Thurs.
