Smith` - Plenty of Fertility Scientists assure 'us that long before this'world runs oat of any raw material usually there is substitute ready. That good for- tune has followed us in the past and it will probably keep with us in the future. Even for the old stand-by, barnyard manure, which is still the best plant food, science has a replacement ready in humus,l green manure, chemicals and soil conditioners. Today, and especially in urban areas, it is becoming more and more difficult to buy manure. And even if we are lucky enough to locate a supply, often it is so filled witch weeds, that there is •a good deal of trouble. More and more the gardener is forced to use a substitute. Commonest of all, is chemical fertilizer, which comes In bags or boxes with a formula attached showing the percentage of nitro- gen, phorsphoric acid and potash, the major ingredients necessary. This fertilizer should be used care- fully and according to directions. It. is best dissolved in water and applied that Way or sprinkled or mixed with the soil just before a rain or a thorough watering with a hose. This prevents it burning tender foliage and. roots. Wjtere watering is not •feasible, one is adivsed to sprinkle lightly over the soil near but not actually touching roots or plants, and work in with a cultivator. Humus and -Green Manure Where one uses chemical fertiliz- er regularly one should also work in humus or dig or plow under green manure. Humus is simply well rotted vegetable- refuse, such as leaves, weeds, grass clippings or even clean garbage mixed with fine soil. Every good gardener has -a pile of this stuff hidden be- hind some shrubbery where the rotting process goes on. That pro- cess can be greatly hastened by some .of the commercial bacteria preparations now on the market. and by frequent turning and watering.

GODERICH PHONE 98 e Green manure is the technical name for crops of Clover, fall rye, buckwheat, oats and similar things that are sown in vacant places in, the garden, allowed to grow well and then dug or plowed under lightly. This sort of thing and humus adds fibre to the soil, loos- ening clay and improving sandy soils and making them more open and friable and therefore more able to retain valuable moisture. Soil Conditioners Where the land is very heavy, or barren, such as we usually find in the brand new city garden where the original soil has keen covered with that taken out' of -the basement excavation, one is well advised to experiment with some of the new soil conditioners now on the Canadian market. These, like chemical fertilizers must be used carefully and according to directions. When this is done the results are amazing, with heavy impervious clay opened up and made into first class garden soil almost over night. These condi- tioners, of course, ,are not to be regarded as fertilizers. Some of the latter should be incorporated too. Supports Sweet peas and the taller regular garden sorts and also other climb- ers will need support: ' Some people use chicken wire or old tennis nets or strings, but a better material is brush if a supply can be obtained. This is pushed firmly in the ground along the rows and before the plants are more than .a few inches high. Depending upon the locality brush from three to six feet high is suitable and the Cemetery Memorials T.

J. Swanson, executive secretary -treasurer of the Ontario Hospital Association, which assist- ed in the formation of the various regions. Included in Region No. 2 are the following 17 hospitals in this dis- trict. Clinton, Clinton Public Hospital;. Exeter, South Huron Hospital; Goderich, Alexandra Marine and General Hospital; Listowel, Lis- towel Memorial Hospital; London,.

Better Co -Operation 'In addition to exchanging local hospital suggestions on maintain- ing the most efficient and econom- ical care of the patient, the various bushier the better. Most of the taller annual flowers will also benefit from some support especially where winds or heavy rains are liable to do some damage. Often stakes a little shorter .than the plant is high and driven in- close will be sufficient. The plants are tied to these loosely with soft twine, raffia or any of the special twisting materials sold by seed stores. With low bushy plants like peonies, sometimes a hoop of wire or wood is placed about them and a foot or so above the ground. In. England arpund del- phiniums they stick bits of brush in the ground. Gradually th'e plant grows about "this and hiding it but being firmly supported just the same. Most people nowadays stake tomatoes. 'Usually a six to seven foot stake is driven firmly in the ground when the tomato planta,., set- out. About every foot of growth the stem is tied Loosely but securely. All side shoots are nip- ped nd a summer to ha t ndmaturitythedto fruit the main stem is also nipped rPPe Regional Councils, which will meet periodically; will concentrate on informing the general public con- cerning overall hospital. activities, and their place in the' community. Mr. Swanson stated that Regional Council meetings will provide a greater opportunity to co-operate with all agencies interested in com- munity health' and social "needs and in addition, it will establish the best possible relationship with the various municipal authorities. "And above all," continued Mr. Swanson, "It will enable all con- cerned to have a better under- standing of hospital and patient problems." Although the subjects discussed are planned by each individual council, . it is expected that the following topics will be included - Uniform accounting, personnel pol- icies, cost studies, public relations, and local hospital'problems.
