their green thumbs by enrolling "Interested people can begin
in the, home gardening course the home gardening course
offered by the University of
Guelph.
This home study program is
directed to all types of home
gardeners, says Professor
Harold Crawford of the Office of
Continuing Education.
"The course covers a wide
variety of topics including soils,
fertilizers, plant propagation,
vegetable culture, herbs, fruits,
house plants, trees, shrubs,
lawns, lanscape design and pest
control. It is designed to take
about one year, with an average
of one assignment per month.
However, there is no time-limit,"
says Professor Crawford.
Home gardening first offered in
1960 through the continuing
education program at the
University of Guelph, is one of
the most popular courses. After
successful completion of this non-
credit course, students receive a
The 'whole'

Everyone wants to make an
economical food buy. Choosing
chicken for a favorite recipe may
be the first step to saving a few
pennies. Food specialists at the
Ontario Food Council, Ministry of
Agriculture and Food, suggest
you compare the price of whole
chicken to that of chicken parts
before deciding which one to buy.
It seems easier to pick up a
package of chicken parts.
However, chicken parts usually
cost more per pound than whole
chicken. To save money buy the
whole chicken and cut it into

Kids say the darndest things.
A five-year-old boy listened to
his father trying to sell their
house to a young couple. The
prospective buyers decided they
should think it over,
The father was prepared to
wait, but his son piped up,
"You'll have to make up your
minds, you know!"
How much would you like to
bet that in 15 or 20 years that kid
is a first-rate salesman?
Another man put his car up for
sale, and a neighbour came to
talk about a deal. When he left,
the car owner went into the
house to tell his wife how much
the neighbour had offered for it.
His young son obviously wanted
to get rid of the car and wasn't at
all interested in the price.
He pointed out, "The question
is, Dad, 'Is he going to buy it?' "
My four-year-old nephew has
an obsession for Corvettes,
mainly due to his father's
coaching. Every time he spots
one on the street, Brian ex-
claims, "Wow! Look at that cool
Corvette."
He urges his Dad to catch up to
it, but that's difficult to do in a
'67 Ambassador.
Anyone, who takes him for a
drive around the neighbourhood,
has to pass a certain driveway in
a certain crescent because that's
where a certain green Corvette
lives.
One day last summer my sister
pulled up beside a sporty
Corvette at a stop light. The win-
dows were down in both cars.
Brian leaned out his side and
shouted to the driver, "Cool car,
man!"
The driver grinned, straighten-
ed his shoulders and raised his
chin. A little boy with a passion
for Corvettes had just made his
day!
The older the kids grow,
though, the less innocent their
remarks become.
For example, my twelve-year-
old niece, Janice, has become
calorie conscious; that is, she's
conscious of the calories I eat.
When I reach for a piece of pie
or cake, she tut-tuts, "You'll get
fat, Elaine."
Nevertheless I have no worries
about my future, thanks to
Janice and her cat Corky. You
see, Corky is going to become a
movie star and will be even more
successful than Morris. When he
becomes rich and famous, he and
his mistress are 'going to move
ELECT SLATE
Another Hurondale 4-H project
is underway with Mrs. Mathers
and Mrs. Taylor teaching
"Clothes For Leisure." Twelve
girls from Hurondale 8 met at the
home of Mrs. Mathers.
Brenda Brunzlow was elected
president, the secretary is
Suzanne Mathers, the treasurer
Mary Ann Hogan. The press
reporters are Miriam Wright and
Tammy Robinson.
After the election of officers,
Mrs. Mathers •and Mrs. Taylor
proceeded to show different types
of fabrics. They also told which
material would be most suitable
for different articles of clothing.
into a mansion in Beverly Hills.
I convinced Jan that an estate
would be too large for she and
Corky to live in alone. Then I
added that surely she could make
some arrangements for her poor
old Aunt Elaine.
"Sure," she answered, "you
can have the maid's room."
Her fourteen-year-old brother,
Dave, seems to have only one
description of his sister: "She's
crazy!"
One evening my sister,
mother, and I were discussing
my plans to move into an apart-
ment and live alone.
Suddenly, from his chair in a
corner, Dave bolstered my cause
with this reasoning: "Why
shouldn't she be on her own?
She's almost forty."
Some teen-agers tend to ex-
aggerate,and that stretch of
Dave's imagination brought him
a dirty look—among other
threats.

things!
parts yourself. It's easily done
with shears and a little practice.
It cutting your own chicken be
sure you have a use for all the
pieces, to make the savings
worthwhile.
When fresh whole chickens are
featured at the grocery store, buy
several and cut them up at home.
Separate the parts into packages
to suit a recipe or meal, then
freeze the packages. Legs,
breasts and wings can be used in
main dishes and casseroles. Use
backs, necks and giblets in soups
and stews.
Remember to compare the
price of whole chicken with
chicken parts. Occasionally
chicken pieces will be a good buy,
but cutting your own chicken is
usually more economical.
