Income Tax Accounting Telephone 227-4851 Hanging basket a good bet Evet,, in the smallest apartment there is usually a well -lighted corner that could hold a hanging basket filled with plants. Foliage plants, vegetables, and herbs as well as flowers can be grown in hanging baskets, say Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food horticulturist, R. A. Fleming. "Given the same care as that required by most houseplants, those in a hanging basket can add a lively touch of color to sunrooms, kitchens and living rooms." Many garden centers now stock a wide variety of ready -planted hanging baskets. as well as con- tainers, soil, fertilizer and plants suitable for baskets. While the range of such plants is wide, the gardener should not choose those - that will be too large for their setting at maturity. The Columnea, Asparagus Fern, Boston Fern, Spider Plant and any tradescantia are among the easy -to -grow plants, while the Episcias, the Scindapsus, the trailing Geranium and the Aphrodite Rieger Begonia need a little more care. Edible plants that growwellin hanging baskets include several varieties of lettuce, " spinach, parsley and strawberries. "Hanging baskets are best kept in a moderately warm, bright, airy location," says Mr. Fleming. "Hung to one side of a _bright window, they usally thrive." When planting hanging baskets, keep the soil mixture loose. Provide the plants with a houseplant slow-release fer- tilizer, according to package instructions. and use houseplants pesticides if'' needed." Hanging baskets on patios, or at other outdoor locations, may dry out more quickly than houseplants and should be watered more frequently. due? go da Frank Triebner, of Exeter, will celebrate his With birthday on Saturday, March 15.

Beef best buy? A good quantity of ground beef is featured at attractive prices in supermarkets these days. Asked whether or not this beef is a good buy. or if it is cheaper because it is "all fat", food specialists at the Ontario Food Council. Ministry of Agriculture and Food assure that it cannot contain more fat than it did before. According to regulations ad- ministered by the Department of Consumer and Corporate Affairs. fat levels in ground beef are set at the 30 percent and 15 percent marks, so that ground beef of any type (be it called hamburger, ground chuck. or ground round) should not consist of more than 30 percent fat. 1f it is specified on the label as "lean" ground beef, it must not contain more than 15 percent fat. Therefore, ground chuck. and ground round could legally contain any amount of fat up to 30 percent unless the word "lean" appears, in which case it cannot exceed 15 percent. Le.?
