The time to cut garden blooms so that they will last a long time de- pends on the kind of flower; dahlias, when quite open, gladioli, when the first bud opens; roses, when the buds are as soft as one's fingers. 2. One inch of water is sufficient for most flowers though carnations need deep water. 3. Store flowers in a constant cold at- mosphere near the freezing unit L MIXING BOWL armed and low the trunk. It should" have numerous strong branches. As depicted in the Garden-Graph, when planting is done in the fall the tree shoultrnot be pruned hack as with spring planting. The only pruning which should be attempted is of brok- en or scraped branches, This fre- quently happens during digging, mov- ing or replanting. Cut any injured branch just below the injury but not close to the tree's trunk for the object is to allow the tree to winter over withput any wounds or as small wounds as pos- sible. lv ANSI Af,t,A$ .0.200 14000424.4. PACK.TO-SCHOOL CLOTHES Hello Homemakers? Now is the time mothers will be busy getting the children's clothes ready for school- mending, letting out, and making over to make things do. And the young- sters always seem to "stretch up" so during the summer! This year more mothers than ever will be sewing the children's clothes --a.m1 their own. It is economical and choice of ready-to-wear styles is limit- ed, Since government orders have eliminated "frills," simple, smart, streamlined styles will be the fashion in future, A study of 'government regulations regarding clothing will re, pay the homemaker whb would be "fashion-wise." For example, did you know that regulations forbid more than nine but- tons on a dress and allow only seven or nine-inch 'tippers limited in colour to black? There is a ban on redin- gotes; jacket dresses are out, and separate jackets (worn with skirts which must be on a band, not a bid- ice) may not he longer than twenty- six inches; capes, scarves, matching bats or purses are taboo. Hems may vaary from one-half inch' on a -flared skirt to two inches on a straight cut. Blouses have no double back yokes, no pocket cuffs or French cuffs; pleats in skirts are shallower but flares may sweep 80 inches. Nearly every child is eager to help and now while mother is busy young daughter may take over in the kitchen. `-With the encouragement of mother's pride and enthusiasm, she will go a long way towards becoming an excel- lent cook. Simple dishes and guidance in the use of electrical appliances will make meal-getting easy for her. * * * * NUTRI-THRIFT MENU Wheat Porridge, Toast and Butter 'Honey, Coffeemilk.

Changing water and cutting stems have comparatively little value in prolonging the life of a flower. * * * * THE QUESTION BOX Mrs, M. C. asks: "How can I re- pair leaking faucet?" Answer: Turn off the water lead- ing to the tap, Using a monkey wrench with a soft cloth between the jaws, unscrew the large nut around the faucet, Remove the screw that holds the washer in place with a screw-driver, applying a few drops of oil if necessary, Replace the worn liasher and screw. But back the parts. We have forwarded more details on fixing faucets that leak around the handle, too. Mrs. D, McT, asks: 'What causes pickles to turn black?" Answer: The hard water in the dis- trict contains a great deal of lime which prevents proper curing. Add a tablespoon of vinegar to a gallon of water to help overcome this. * * * Anne Allan invites you to write to her c/o the Advance-Times.
