*Use care with flower plants

With the sudden onset of cold
weather, gardeners should take
time soon to cater to those plants
which are susceptible to frost,
say Ministry of Agiculture and
Food horticulturists,
"By bringing geraniums,
impatiens and marigolds indoors
before they are hit by frost, you
can get several additional
months of enjoyment from their
colorful blooms," says
Hughes.
The plants should be dug up
carefully to avoid damaging root
systems, and potted with fertile
garden soil followed by a
thorough watering.
Many of those plants are very
vegetative and wide-spreading
when grown outdoors. Pinching
back carefully to a node, where a
strong bud can break away and
start will provide you
with compact, bushy plants Allis Chalmers
better suited for the ,windowsill.
"Far a supply of inexpensive
and colorful blooms next spring,
take your geranium cuttings
before frost," advises R, F.
Gamine.
Cut healthy, four-inch-long
shoots or cuttings and root them
in sand, water, or a prepared
rooting medium, leaving most of
the leaves on. The cuttings should
be taken from the plant cleanly
with a sharp knife. Prevent them
from wilting by covering with
glass jars or plastic to create a
moist atmosphere, When the
cuttings begin to root, remove the
covers gradually. Although they
need plenty of light, they should
be shaded from the sun.
When they are well rooted;
plant the cuttings in small pots,
using a mixture of seven parts
soil, three parts organic matter,
and two parts sand, Repot the

plants when they become root-
bound.
Dig up your gladiolus corms for
storage just before the first
severe frost," preferably on a
warm, sunny day," says D. B.
McNeill.
Gladiolus leaves should be left
on the plants as long as possible,
Either cut and clear away the
foliage before digging to prevent
thrips migrating to the corms, or
cut the stems and foliage off
about an inch from the corm after
digging.
"Cure corms at 00 degrees F
(27 degrees C) for two to three
weeks to stall fungus diseases,"
advises the specialist. To control
thrips, shake the corms in a
paper bag with five percent
carbaryl (Sevin) dust or dusts
containing methoxychlor or
chlordane.
Nylon stockings, paper bags or
flats make excellent storage
containers. They should not be
piled more than two or three deep
in storage and they should be
right side up, so that if young
shoots sproM before planting,
they will grow in the normal
direction.
The storage room should be a
cool 40 to 50 degrees F (4 to 10
degrees C), well-ventilated, and
neither too damp or too dry.
Dahlia lovers should wait until
after the first killing frost to cut
down the stems to within a few
inches of the ground, and dig the
roots out carefully to prevent
damage. Then turn them upside
down to air-dry for a day. The
roots will store quite successfully
in the cool temperature of the
basement, provided it has some
humidity and is frost-free.
Covering the roots with dried
peat moss or sawdust will
prevent them from drying out.

planted in Huron in recent years.
Pullen commented, "There will
still be more wheat planting. Lots
of years we have known of later
plantings than this. Higher prices
in recent years is the cause of the
increase."
Earl Reichert at Cook's agreed
with Pullen saying, "our wheat
sales have been up considerably
and the supply is getting tight,
We will get more plantings yet if
the beans get off quickly. Most
farmers put wheat back on the
cleared beanfields. Horse show

Despite continuous wet
weather during the past month
the quality of 'white beans being
harvested is exceptionally good.
Huron's Agricultural
representative Don Pullen told
the T-A Wednesday morning
"Although there has been some
discothuring in some fields the
overall quality is very good,
especially in the later sown
beans."
With improved weather
Saturday, Sunday and Monday,
Pullen estimated that about 70
percent of Huron's estimated
acreage of 50,000 acres was
harvested.

Earl Reichert, manager of
Cook's division of Gerbro plant at
Centralia said he thought the
percentage of harvested acreage
was at about 50 percent.
Pullen was confident that the
balance of the crop could be
harvested without too much
trouble, He added "the farmers
have to be poised with their
combines ready to go when the
weather clears. They were in
high gear over the past
weekend,Some worked right
through the night Monday until
the rains came again."
The Ag Rep said a fair amount
of grain corn in Huron was
already harvested with ex-
ceptional yields. He listed an
instance of more than 100 bushels
of dried corn per acre. He said
moisture was about 30 percent
but added, "that's not ex-
cessively high,"

Check variety
of white beans
By PAT LYNCH
Soils and Crops Specialist
OMAF
Last spring a certain per-
centage of Kentwoodbeans were
planted. This new variety had
been extensively tested prior to
its licencing. One of the
characteristics of this bean is
that it is a larger size than either
Sanilac or Seafarer.
Any grower delivering Kent-
wood beans would be well ad-
vised to check with his local
elevator operator before
delivering this variety. Since the
Kentwood bean is larger than
Seafarer or Sanilac a different
size of screen is required for
handling this bean.
If Kentwood beans are handled
on the same size of screen as
Seafarer and Sanilac a certain
percentage of Kentwood beans
will be screened out.
Therefore in order to minimize
the amount of cleanout from
these beans Kentwood beans
should only be cleaned through
the correct size of screen. One
way to check, is to look at a
sample of the beans that are
screened out.

The Ausable-Bayfield Con-
servation Authority is holding its
second Bannockburn hike Sunday
afternoon. The hike through the

popular last year, and it is ex-
pected that there will be an ex-
cellent turnout again.
There will be guided hikes
leaving the parking lot on the
half hour, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m.
Naturalists will enjoy
viewing the wide variety of
wildlife, trees, plants, and the
beautiful scenery. October is an
ideal month to take part in such
an outing since the crisp autumn
air and fall colours add to the
hiker's enjoyment, The general
public is invited to spend an af-
ternoon close to nature.
The Bannockburn Wildlife
Management Area is located 11 4
miles east of Varna, on the scenic
Bannockburn River. Varna is on

ween Highways No. 4 and 21.
