The good root growth and moist con- ditions help them become es- tablished quickly. A site well chosen now may save considerable trouble later on; evergreens over eight feet tall cannot be moved easily. G. A. WILLIAMS, O.D. Optometrist 9 PATRICK STREET W.

Odd Lots — Good Selection Study mature specimens of the species you like to find out the eventual height and spread. Your local nurseryman will be glad to inform you which ever- greens are suitable for your lo- cation. When digging the hole, save only the topsoil for use around the plant roots. If poorer sub- soil is used, mix with peat moss or leaf mold. Use a layer of soil on the top that will remain porous and resistant to sunbake and hardening. Always dig the hole wide and deep enough so the roots can be readily spread out. In areas where drainage is poor and soil heavy, a very large hole may be required for suitable drainage material to be placed a foot or so below the plant. PORTABLE BASEBOARD HEATERS Luedlin Westinghouse lisoahordHeating AWW211c-One•Dial Thonnostalic Control FOR HOME OR I COTTAGE Ideal for that chilly room Do not plant the evergreens too deep. Roots should be at the same depth in the soil as when the plant was dug. Before placing the soil back in the hole, put in some peat moss and a lit- tle bone meal; fill the hole with water until it is about three- quarters full of earth. Let the water soak in before adding ex- tra earth. Do not pound the soil down when wet. A good prac- tice is to put a mulch around the base of the transplant. Most commercial nurseries wrap evergreens in a ball of soil covered with burlap. It is not necessary to remove burlap; it will eventually rot and disap- pear. Always check for strings or metal tags attached to the stem; these may cause, difficul- ty later on.

A simple suet feeder may be made by boring a number of holes, .an inch in diameter, in a cedar log; filling the holes with suet, and then suspending the log from a tree or patio roof. A window bird-feeder will bring wild birds within inches of your face. Placed at the kit- chen window, the bird-feeder enables the family at breakfast to watch birds flocking just be- yond the pane for their morning feeding. Later in the morning, the housewife can watch birds from a few inches distance while washing dishes or doing her morning cleanup of the kit- chen. Among the birds that can be expected at a window feeder -- particularly if the feed mixture contains a high percentage of sunflower seeds or if sunflower seeds only are used -- are chick- adees, blue jays, white-breast- ed nuthatches, evening gros- beaks and purple finches. If the feeder contains a suet rack, downy woodpeckers will regu- larly visit it. Birds will take a variety of food -- sunflower seeds is one of the most popular. Most mix- tures available include millet, hemp, cracked corn, wheat and sunflower seeds. Avoid mix- tures which contain weed seeds. Among Ontario winter birds there are several species that don on Wednesday. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Fort- ney (Nettie Searson) left Satur- day to reside at Halifax. Mrs. Melvin Finlay is a pa- tient in Wingham and District Hospital, Ed Gilmor and W. J. Brown arrived home Tuesday from a two weeks' visit in Prince Ed- ward Island. Mr. and Mrs. Harold Robin- son, Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Gibson and Mr. and Mrs. Mel. Allan spent a few days at Expo. Are you insured with only half an agent? If you are not insured by an Independent Agent, chances are you are receiving only half the benefits you might expect when placing insurance on your dwelling, car or business, An independent insurance agent represents several com- panies. His job doesn't end with selling you insurance. That's the big difference in insurance — the continuing, personal atten- tion of an independent agent. He keeps prefer to feed on the ground. Some of them will feed only on the ground and will not fly up to a feeder, Thus, the seeds spilled by the sloppy feeding habits of other birds at the feed- er are utilized by the ground feeders. Among those that pre- fer feeding on the ground are slate-colored juncos, tree spar- rows, mourning doves and ring- necked pheasants. Plans for bird feeding sta- tions are available from the Federation of Ontario Natural- ists. Simply send a large self- addressed and stamped enve- lope to the Federation of On- tario Naturalists, 1262 Don Mills Road, Don Mills, Ontario, Once you begin feeding win- ter birds you should continue through the winter. The birds become dependent on you, es- pecially when their natural food in the woods and fields is covered with snow and ice.
