CORRECTION
In last week's Signal -Star it

took over as chief of the
,Goderich Fire Department
from John Huggers. The
name should have read John -
Hoggarth. 4
The Signal -Star wishes to
apologize for the error.
• MAKE SURE
YOUR PLANTS
GET ENOUGH WATER '
• Unless you're' an ex-
perienced gardener, you may
wonder at times if you've
• been a little overgenerous or
perhaps stingy with water
for your houseplants. Quite
often, someone' will recOm-
• -merid that houseplants be
given a ‘"good" watering, but
the question still remains,
'"How much is reallYa 'good'
watering?"
"Start with • the
measurement of the pot,"
says J.K. Hughes, .hor-.
ticultural specialist with the
Ontario . Ministry of
Agriculture and Food.
' "Generally, one ounce of
water should be applied for
every inch of pot diameter. A
6 -inch pot • would require
about 6 ounces ^f water for a
good watering."
• The horticulturist points
. out that there are Tome ex-
• ceptions to this general rule.
If the soil mix is very porbus
and open (as many of the new
soilless mixes now are), he
suggests that the plant ,be
watered again about • one .,
• minute after the first ap-
plication. If your soitless
media beeeves, bone dry, the
only effecti've way to wet it is.
by getting the pot in a saucer
• of Water for about 15 minutes. '
