USEFUL HINTS ON
CARE HOUSE PLANTS
In the care of house plants in the
winter time, the thief points to• con-
sider are atmosphere, heat, drainage,
drafts and the varying effects of sun,
light on the different plants. A dry
atmosphere is to be avoided because
it not only stunts the plants but helps
to increase certain insect pests, such
as red spider and thrips. Moisture in
the air around the plants may be in-
creased by standing the pots in shal-
low trays filled with pebbles, gravel or
moss and keeping them moist. Normal
moisture is also dependent on good
drainage, This can best be arranged
by using soil in the pot that will allow
both air and water to pass through
A mixture of two parts good garden
loam soil, one part rotted manure, and
one part sand will generally fulfil the
soil requirements of potted plants, To
prevent the surface of the soil from
caking and thus prevent the access of
air, stir the surface gently from time
to time. Further drainage may be ob-
tained by placing pebbles or small
stones or broken parts of 'an old pot
at the bottom of the pot, so as to help
draw off excess water.
• The placing of the plants to their
best advantage calls for some consid-
eration. Alb plants will not flourish
anywhere, and care should be taken
to put the plant where it will not stand
in a draft. Concerning sunlight, dif-
ferent plants apparently have different
preferences. For example, ferns should
not be paced in ,direct sunlight but
where there is an abundance of light
all round. On the other hand, flower-
ing plants as a rule require all the sun-
light they can get, particularly in win-
ter time. Foliage plants can thrive all
right in dim light but in winter they
should be placed in direct sunlight..
However, the great secret of having
fresh-looking plants in the home in
winter is to avoid the over-heating of
rooms. It is a good plan to commence
the winter care of the' plants as soon
as the heat is turned on in the fall.
More house plants have been killed by
heat than by cold. Plants' should
never be placed to near radiators. The
ideal temperature for house plants is
about 65 degrees, or better still from
60 to 65 degrees F., three degrees less
than the recommended house temper-
ature from the health point of view. If
one desires to have the plants in the
living rooms, the best thing to do is
to keep the rooms as cool as possible,
consistent with personal comfort.
Many, or large plants should not be
kept in bedrooms,' particularly at night,
or for preference none at all in winter
when all the windows are closed.

CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE
AIDS SANATORIUM
Campaign Now :Under Way Through-
out Western Ontario
Mr. Thomas F. Walker, Chairman of
the Christmas Seal Campaign, inform-
ed The Advance-Times that Queen
Alexandria Sanatorium launched its
eighteenth annual campaign on Mon-
day, November the 19th., 'when thous-
ands of appeal letters were sent to the
offices and homes of the cities, towns
and rural communities of the seven
Western Ontario Counties of the Sana-
torium district.
The letter irnaprted the \good news
that the Sanatoria of the Dominion are
gradually winning the war against
Tuberculosis, the death rate having
been reduced from 51.7 in 1943 to 48
last year, a most gratifying compari-
son with the rate of 200 per 100,000 of
our population the year the Sanator-
ium was founded in 1909.
But with Tuberculosis still taking an
annual toll of almost 6000 Canadian
lives, the majority being young people
between 'the ages of 18 and 30, the
Canadian Tuberculosis Association of
Ottawa warns against any complac-
ency, and asks that preventive measur-
es be intensified if possible.
.The still high death toll has so stir:
red the Provincial and Municipal au-
thorities, that active steps are being
taken to assist in the control and final
elimination of the disease by the dis-
covery of new cases through - mass
X-rays, and already many thousands
of unsuspected cases have home to
light.
As the Sanatorium's preventive pro-
gramme - research, education and the
travelling clinics, which have done
such outstanding work in the finding
of new cases, is supported entirely by
the sale of Christmas Seals and the

conclusion that rationing was still ne-
cessary, except for meat and butter.

ucts was also the opinion. Regarding

Lewis Cook the leader of the recrea-
tional period.
