Hospice of Huron sells bulbs
For the second year Hospice
of Huron is raising funds by
the sale of colchicum bulbs
(known as the autumn crocus
or meadow saffron).
The Hospice group hopes to
sell 1,040 bulbs.
"A lot of people buy them
and plant them in memory of
someone," says Shirley
Dinsmore.
The bulbs will be available
for sale during Homecoming
'95 on Saturday from 1-3 at
Seaforth Community Hospital.
The bulbs sell for $3 each, 2
for $5 or 5 for $10
Known as the autumn crocus
the correct name of the plant is
`colchicum.' The plant comes
up in the spring with green
foliage and in the fall the
purple flower comes up. The
autumn crocus comes up every
year.
"They are beautiful," says
volunteer Frances Teatero.
Hospice of Huron serves
Seaforth, Clinton and Goderich.
The flower bulbs are being
sold in Goderich, Clinton,
Seaforth and Bayfield.
To purchase the bulbs you
can contact Mary DeJong at
522-0474, Frances Teatero at

Consider
the Cow
l f your advertisement were in this
space as many people would read it as
are reading this. But your advertise-
ment isn't here, and people do not
worry whether you are selling real
estate, gasoline, peanuts or popcorn.'
Did you ever sit down in the pas-
ture with a pail between your knees
and waitfor a cow to back up and be
milked?
• Of course not. You know better
than that.
Well, business is somewhat like a
cow. You've got to go out after it and
round it up. The fellow with the milk
pail between his knees may get some
milk, but the odds are all in favor of
the fellow who drives up the cow and
feeds her.
Some kind of advertising must he
done if a business is to amount to any-'
thing. Either walking and talking or
writing, or printing. But the least
costly, most profitable and dignified
way is by the regular newspaper,.
which goes into.people's homes every-
where.
