SEEDING TIME
(Experimental Farms News) .
The importance of starting plants
early enough in the spring by sowing
seed indoors in window boxes or in
hotbeds cannot be over emphhsized if
the best results are to be obtained
from the plants of those crops that
should be produced by that means,
stales T. F. Ritchie, Division of I-Iorti- I.
culture, Central Experimental Farm,
Ottawa.
As a rule, from six to eight weeks
prior to the time when such plants
can be set out in the field will be
about the right time for sowing the
seed. When seed is sown earlier than
this it is difficult to produce stocky,
vigorous plants without giving many
extra., transplantings or subjecting the
plants to severe checking in a effort
to prevent excessive growth,
Experiments have shoWn that plants
that have made continuous, unchecked
growth from the time the seed was
sown until the plants were set out in
the ;field gave the best returns. The
popular, old theory was that to get
early maturity it was necessary to
sow seed early and transplant a num-
ber of times, as well as to subject the
plants to severe hardening off before
planting out time. This old method
resulted in doing much unnecessary
work and in many cases produced dis-
appointing returns. It can safely be
gaid the best financial returns result
where well grown stocky plants are
ney got on 'fire. It also did some
damage in a bedroom upstairs. Luck-
ily it was put under control before *it
did any further damage.

your new home may it recall many
happy memories. We pray that the

head,
But never reach the heart. .

Mrs. Win. Curie.

JUVENILES LOST TWO
GAMES LAST WEEK
Kincardine Won. Both Games By A
4-3 Score
The Juveniles lost two decisions to
Kincardine last week by the close
margin of one goal. Both games end,
ed with the Lakeshore boys on the
long end of a 4.3 score,
The game here on Wednesday night
drew over 400 fans and they were
treated to a good exhibition of Juvenile
hockey, As one -old player remarked,
these kids made a game real interest-
ing,
Both games were lost in the final
minute of play. In the last period
here the local boys, were having the
best of the play and it looked as
though they would 'come through with
a win,' Time passed on and the game
was just about -to go into overtime
when Kincardine broke away and
were on McLeod like a flash and he
had no chance to
It was almost a similar play that put
the game on the right side of the
ledger for Kincardine in the Lake-
shore town, It was tough to lose both
these games by such a narrow margin
and so close to the end of sixty min-
utes of play. .
Alf. Lockridge has confidence that
these young Indians will come through
and give a good account of them-
selves yet.
In the game here Reily of Brussels
was used and he got a good hand

POTATO BANK FOR
WESTERN ONTARIO
Half Larger Stocks Now Frozen
The Prices Board "froze" half of
all the larger 'stocks of potatoes in
Western Ontario warehouses, and
created with ,them a "bank" designed
to prevent shortages due to inequit-
able distribution,
Wherever lots of 600 bags of po-
tatoes or more are held in district
warehouses, the distributors are ord-
ered to keep half their supply on hand,
for distribution, according to instruc-
tions from the regional foods officer.
The remaining half may be sold as
usual.
Plans are being made so that if a
centre develops a serious shortage of
supply, a report may be made, and
potatoes will be released from the
"bank" to that locality.
Every distributor who has 600 bags
of potatoes or more in a Western On-
tario warehouse, roughly a carload,
must register his holdings to the reg-
ional foods officer at London.
EXTRA PRESERVES IN

which carry with them real responsi-

Youth should be a happy time and "
its responsibilities should not be a

healthy child and a carefree child is
one whose nerves are'steady.
Well planned meals can help a.
great deal in making children's lives
happy and carefree, according to Dr-
L. B. Pett of Nutrition Services, for
they will contain the foods necessary
to build strong bodies and steady
nerves. Milk, whole grain cereals,
vegetables, fruit, meat and eggs . .
in these every day foods are found
those food elements which both build
