At the May meeting of the Town-
ship Council the clerk was instruct -

alter certain roadways within the
Blue Water Beach Survey. The
council agreed to the proposed
alteration, and referred the etatter
to the township solicitor for action.
The road superintendent was in-
structed to enquire into the pos-
sibility of extra assistance in inain-
taining the 4th concession, due to
the heavy traffic caused by the
drive-in theatre.

• Keep Going.
It is no trouble at all to have a
clean, well growing garden, if one
spends a little time on the job right
now. The weeds are small and
easily destroyed. The soil is moist
and quickly cultivated. Thinning
and transplantingare done with a
minimum, of worry and effort. A
few minutes with a cultivator or
spade at this season of the year
will save hours later on.
With both flowers and vege-
tables, the •best plan is to have the
bed thoroughly cultivated or dug
before any planting is done and the
soil worked up to the finest pos-
sible tilth. In early spring this is
Soon done and particularly before
the seeds are sown and have start-
ed to sprout. After this thorough
preparation, it is a comparatively
siinple matter to run over the
whole ploteer bed once a week with
a light cultivator and this routine
will keep the garden flourishing.
Keep Planting
Another point on which.,tiOo much
emphasis cannot be laid is to Con-
tinue- planting. It is much better
to plant a little every week for a
inonth or so than to try and get
everything in at once. There is no
good reason why Most vegetable
and a lot of flowers cannot be
planted for many weeks- yet and
this gradual plenting-willproduce
far more satisfactory results than
sowing or setting out all at once.
The vegetable garden particularly,
should .be planted gradually with
only a portion of the carrots, beets,
beans, corn, etc. sown at one time.
In the flower line, experienced
gardeners will sow such things as
zinnias, petunias, asters, cosmos
and other annuals in little plots
here and therein the flower gar&
en. When these come up they
will leave only a few plants in the
original position and transplant the
surplus to other parts of the
garden. Handled carefully, these
transplants' will come along almost
as quickly as those left untouched
and thus a large flower garden can
be planted at, trivial cost:
Avoid These
The three eornmonsst mistakes
Made by amateur gardeners are
planting too soon, too thick and
too deep.. These, fundamental
warnings refer to seed planting:
The average person is inclined to
start too soon, to plant while there
is still danger of sharp frost. One

should read the directions on the
seed packet or the seed catalogue
'carefully. Little is gained and
much risked by' rushihg the season.
Seed is usually small .but the
plants produced from that seed..
may be several feet tall. Bearing -
this in mind, we should spread
seed thinly, never closer than an
inch or so, and even when so
spaced, most things will require
rigid thinning later on.
And almost every one is inclined
to plant far too deeply. With tiny
seed Such as that of lettuce, car-
rots, cosmos, zinnias, poppies, and
alyssum, which are not much larger
than the head of a pin or shingle
nail, it is not necessary to cover at
all. We sow these in the finest soil
and ,merely press in. Then, if
possible, we.' keep the soil dampen-,
ed until germination starts. With
larger seeds such as nasturtiums,
peas, beans and corn, one should:
cover lightry, say a quarter to 'hall
inch. With bulbs or corms of
gladiolus, dahlias, or potatoes, one
plants four to eight 'inches deep.
In Heavy Soil
„ Germinating seeds and roots do
not like air. Hence ,in any seed
bed one should have the soil as
fine as possible, raking several
times or eultiVating thoroughly to
break up the Whips. Then after
the seed is sown, the soil should
be pressed down firmly and if it is
not moist, it is a good plan- to
water thoroughly, but carefully, to
avoid washing out the seed or
covering it too- deeply. In moist,
fine, warm soil, germination will
start quickly.
In very heavy soil sometimes it is
hardly possible to create this situ-
ation and experts advise a little
extra effort especially where fine
seed is sown or things like carrots
and parsnips which are most di&
cult to germinate. With these it is
an excellent plan- to dig a shallow
trench and ,fill with special fine,
rich soil from the compost heap.
Where this practice is followed
carrots will germinate and grow
almost without thinning.

Everyone knows the common
dandelion. It is of European Orig-

can be found. everywhere. The
dandelion thrives on every type_of
soil .and under any conditions, says
the Crops Branch of the Ontario
Department of Agriculture.
The dandelion has some doubtful
virtue as a harbinger of spring.
Under slime circumstances it adds
beauty to the landscape: The
young growth can be used as
greens, the blossoms have question.

home-made beverage and the white
milky juice has very " doubtful
'medicinal value.
On the other side of the picture,
dandelions are a. perennial pest to.
the home owner in his lawn and
garden, to the farmer in his pas-
tures and farm yard and to the
road overseer along roadsides and
boulevards of our highways.
Dandelion seeds are carried con-
siderable distances by the wind,
consequently the fight for their.
Control is perpetual, perennial and
continuous.
The old back breaking method of
control by spudding or a 'squirt of
oil on each, plant is now outdated
by the more modern -chemical cone

lions,are one of the easiest weeds
to kill with 2,4-D. 'Control meas-
