H only one variety of grass was sown then at some season of the year it would start to mature, set seed and lose its color. For special (purposes, there are ,different mixtures. If the location is very shady it 3s useless to sow grasses that must have plenty of sunshine. So we use mixtures especially adapted to growing in shade. 'For (bowling and putting greens, for damp locations or very .,high, it is also advisable Jo get mixtures or varieties especially suitable. Suitable For Canada There may be some argument as to whether or not there is a distinct race of Canadians. But no one will deny that we 'have a distidet climate. In fact, we have several climates. For that reason the flower and vegetable seeds we saand the nursery stock we plant st be specially selected for Can- a . Something 'that may give wonderful results in England or Virginia or the South Seas could be a terrible flop here. When one selects seed from a Canadian seed catalogue, one can bei sure that that seed' its suited to Canada, that, in most cases, it has been field tested under actual Canadian con- ditions.

Later, When he came to prosecute people, he said he didn't 'believe any of these things.
