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 larger contributions of individuals and NOTICE TO CREDITORS All persons having claims against the estate of Adain Knox late `of the Township of Howick, in the County of Huron, Farmer, -who died on or about the twenty-fifth day of Septem- ber, A.
