Our landlady, sent us a notice that our rent was raised to $12 a month from now on. Can she do this? A;—Your landlady cannot raise your rent unless •she had had permission from the Rentals Division of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. 0:—•I am a returned veteran and pur- chased a house in 1945 when I was discharged. I would now like to use the house, can I ask the tenant to vacate? A:—Even though you are a returned veteran you did not purchase the house until you were discharged from the services and therefore can- • not ask the tenant .to vacate unless that tenant is not a '"well behaved one", The rental regulations state 'that a' veteran who owned his house before he joined the services may then give notice to a tenant to va- cate if he wishes the house for his own use. Q:—If a tenant gives notice to "quit" on the 15th of the month what is the exact time he must leave A:—The tenant must leave on or be- fore inidnight of the fifteenth of the month on which his notice to leave takes effect. Q:—I always paid $1.75 for a cleaner to clean car seat covers. Last time a different cleaner charged me p.m. Is there a ceiling price on cleaning? A:—There is a controlled price on cleaning services. Cleaners are al- lowed to charge the same price as they charged during the basic period of September 15th to October 11th., 1942. This does not mean that all cleaners have to charge the same price. If you would send the name of the cleaners to the Wartime Pric- es and Trade Board these could be checked for you. Q:—How much should a person char- ge per week for the room and board for a college student, when I supply laundry and necessary first aid? A:—It would seem that you have never supplied room and board before. If this is the case you should charge the same price as is charged for slim- ilar accommodation in your neigh- borhood or a similar neighborhood.

SUGGESTIONS FOR THE PICKLE SHELF The unexpected and most successful windfall of extra rationed sugar this month means that many homemakers are changing their plans and will be making more jams and pickles than they had intended. The home econ- omists of the Consumer Section, Do- minion Department of Agriculture„ point out that sugar still has to be used with a careful hand and in this year's folder "Jams, Jellies and Pickles" the tested recipes which include "Corn Relish" are given with this in mind. Speaking of the folder, a copy may be obtained by writing to the Domino!' Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, Each of the three recipes which fol- low calls for tomatoes, either red or green. The Chili Sauce and Corn Re- lish should be made right away while ripe tomatoes are at their best,' but the Green Tomato Chow-Chow may be left until a little later. Chili Sauce is so good that even thouglr one batch takes almost half the extra two pounds of sugar allowed per person, it is well worth using the sugar for this purpose. The same might be said about the Green Tomato Chow-Chow, which, in- cidentally, is an 'excellent way of mak- ing good use of those tomatoes in the garden which refuse to ripen. CHILI SAUCE 1 tablespoon whole cloves 3 tablespOons whole allspice 1 gallon chopped, skinned ripe tom- atoes, (8 lbs.) 2% cups chopped, peeled onions (6 medium 2% cups chopped, seeded green or sweet red peppers, ( 6 medium) 1% cups sugar 2 tablespoons salt 4 cups blended pickling vinegar Tie' spices in cheesecloth. bag.

They are the earliest of the irises to bloom, showing colour in April. Dwarf, bear- ded irises are vigorous growers, Two of the most popular dwarf iris- es are shown in the accompanying broad, dark green leaves. It's almost stemless 'flowers are a beautiful pale lavender. The lower petals are decor- ated with an orange crest, hence' its name. A white iris of this variety is quite rare. There is an autumn-flowering iris' pumila which has two or, more normal flowering seasons• each year. It blos- soms in the spring along with other early flowering varieties and again in the autumn, beginning in September and continuing until killed by heavy frosts. Recommended are Autumn Queen, Jean Siret, Lieut. Chavagnac and Olive White. There's still time to plant dwarf iris- es. They are ideal for the rock gar- den, or to brighten crevices beside gar- den steps. They are equally well suit- ed for edging material for the hardy border, or at the edge of a small gar- den pool.

One is iris pitmila, a bearded type, and iris cristata, one of the crested varieties. Iris pumila is very dwarf, with stem- less flowers and very broad leaves. 'This iris can be used to form dense mats of bright blue, purple, crimson, yelloW' or white. The soil in which iris is , plant- ed should be enriched with organic matter. The plants are such, rapid growers that they soon deplete the soil of its fertility. Iris cristata, or crested iris, grows to a height of 5 to 6 inches and has Harold Victor Pym • _ Teacher -- PIANO, ORGAN, VOICE, THEORY Pupils Prepared for Examinations (Toronto Conservatory of Music) Classes now forming, to commence September 9th STUDIO — CENTRE STREET WINGHAM, ONTARIO WESTFIELD (Intended for last week) Misses Edna and Audrey Walsh of nensall were guests' on Sunday at the harm of Mr. and Mrs, A, E.
