This describes an expedition after the "big fellows" in Newfoundland. For the fisherman there ate two other stories. "Falling Froin Grace" and "The Heart Cum" in this issue of Canada's outdoor magazine. "heating the Black Duck" and "The 1 Parson Goes hunting" as the titles indicate, are hunting stories that will appeal to the devotee of rifle and shot gun.

Me last week In April. If these plants are then properly hardened on, they should bo ready to transplant intd the field by the 8Ut to 10th of May. The atilt for oaily cabbage should be a warm, sandy loam in a good state of cultivation. The plants are generally set 30 inches between the rows and 18 inches in the row,. They are given careful cultivation during the grow- ing season. The late crop 1s generally started about the 15th of May in an open seed -bed or cold frame. The rows in the seed=bed are 4-6 inehee apart, tato seed being scattered quite thickly in the row. Where the cabbage mag- got is troublesome 1t. will be neces- sary to grow the plants under cheese- cloth frames. These plants should be ready to set in the field from June 15t11 to July 1st. When WO are set- ting plants which have little soil on their roots, as often happens in the late crop, we carry the plants to be set out in a pail which is partly filled with a batter made of cow manure, loam and water, This gives some moisture to the plant and a cer- tain amount of readily available food.. The plants are set 24 inches in the row and 30 inches between the row. As this crop does best under cool conditions, it should, if possible, be put In the moister part of the gar- den. Both crops must have sufficient moisture 10 they are to grow gtticklY. Nitrate of soda may be used to ad- vantage around the plants at the rate of 160-200 pounds per acre, or what could be put on a ten -cent pione I:o each plant. On account oN the solu- bility of nitrate of sola in water, bet- ter results are obtained by malting two applications of 75-100 pounds, first when the plants aro beginning to grow after transplanting, and, seeondiy, when the head is beginning to forst. Cabbages are generally eta off so as to leave 3 or 4 or the outer -leaves to protect the head. This should be done before too severe freezing wea- ther Injures the cabbage. They will not keep s0 well if they have been severely frozen. Late cabbage may be stored in col- lars, pits, or any like place. The tem- perature should he held at about 34 deg. F. and provision made for air circulation so that no moisture col- lect on walls or ceilings. Where one is storing in cellars, the cabbages are best placed on slatted shelves made one above the other about 2 feet apart. The cabbage may be laid on these, one or two layers deep. Where there is no good cellar storage, a pit may be made outside in a place which is well drained. The ground is covered with •a layer of straw and the cab- bage placed on this face down in lay- ers -of first five cabbages side by side, four on top of this, then three, then two, and finally one, thus forming an "A" shape. Tuck in the outer leaves of the first layer under the heads. The outer leaves 01 each layer are allowed to hang over the layer below to form a roof. The pile is then cov- ered with six inches of straw and about six inches of sell. livery 10 or 15 feet a tile should be placed in the pile to conte up through the soil and straw, thus forming a ventilator. 4.11 plants give off moisture,. and unless we had an opening for 11 to escape the cabbage would soon begin to rot. If severe weather comes, these can be stuffed with straw and opened again when tete weather moderates, The covering of the pit should also be increased by using strawy manure as the weather becomes more severe. Cabbage can be taken from the pit on warm days. Cabbages which are not quite folly grown may be dug with the roots attached. These can then make a certain amount of growth. Cauliflower is handled in the same wary as cabbage. If cauliflower gets a severe setback in transplanting to the field, 11 will tend to cause it to go to seed instead of to form a good head, More especially is this so with the early crop in the warm summer weather. In many small gardens it is generally grown as a fall crop. The plants are slower growers than cab- bage and will do better if started. about two weeks earlier if we wish a maximum• number of good hoad3. When the cauliflower shows a head about two inches at diameter the out- er leaves should be drawn together and tied so as to exclude the light, thus giving a pure white head. Cauli- flowers that have not fully developed may be dug tip, roots and all, and bung tna cool cellar. There they will • continue to grow, giving a delicious head after the ordinary season of cauliflower is over, Fully developed heads may be out off, wrapped in oil paper and stored in a cold room at 32 deg. F. to 34 deg, F. Here thdy will keep well till Christmas time.— Pe. 11. MacLennan, Vegetable Special- ist, Toronto.

It is possible, by a study of your long distance requirements, to effect savings in your long distance bills that are well worth while. 'Station -to -Station Service Station -to -Station service should be wised when you are willing to talk to ANYONE at a distant telephone — that is, when you do not need to get a particular person on the line. Station -to -Station service is not only cheaper, but more rapid and accurate than Person -to -Person service. On Sta- tion -to -Station service the call can be completed as soon as the distant tele- phone is answered, while on a Person -to - Person call the particular party wanted ;must be located and summoned to the telephone. The charge for a Station -to -Station call cannot be reversed — that is, it can- not be charged to the telephone called, for in that case the telephone operator would have to locate a particular person to approve the charge, which would make it a Person -to -Person call. Person -to -Person Service When you make a call specifying that conversation is desired with a particular person at a given number, Person -to - Person service is used. As this service requires greater oper- ating labor and circuit time than a Station -to -Station call, the rate is about '25 per cent greater. Examples of Different Rates Following are' examples showing the station -to -station and person-to-person rates for distances up to sixty-four miles: Station -to- Pelson -to- ]Miles Station Rate Person (tate i 0-12 $0.10 $0.15 12--18 ,15 .20 I18-24 .20 .25 24-32, .... ..... .25 .30 32-40 .30 .40 40-48 .35 .45 48-56 .40 .50 56-64„ . „ . .45 .55 Appointment and Messenger Service Appointment calls and Messenger calls are special kinds of person-to-per- son calls. An APPOINTMENT CALL rate, which is about 50 per cent higher than the station -to -station rate, is quoted for service when an appointment is made by the calling party to talk at a particular time, When a person who does not have a telephone is called over long distance and a messenger must be sent to summon the party to the telephone, the MESSEN- GER CALL rate, which is about 50 per cent higher than the station -to -station rate, is charged, and to this is added the necessary messenger charges. The Report Charge When you place a call for a particular person or persons and for any reason they cannot be reached the salve day at the address given, or will not talk, or if you make a call and you are not ready to talk when the other person is ready with- in an hour, a REPORT CHARGE is made. The report charge is about one- fourth the station -to -station rate. It is intended to cover part of our expense of handling the uncompleted ,call. Special Evening and Night Rates The EVENING rate, between 8,30 p.m. and 12 midnight, on station -to - station calls, is about one-half the day rate. The NIGHT rate, between mid- night and 4,30 a.ln., is about one-fourth the day station -to -station rate. However, no evening or night rates are quoted on station -to -station calls where the day rate is less than 25 cents. On such short -haul calls the day rate applies, For longer distances special evening and night rates are quoted. Became it is difficult to reach particu- lar persons at night, when many are away from their homes and places of business, there are no special evening or rrt;itt rates quoted for person-to-person calls. They apply only on station -to - station calls, Every Bell Telephone Is ft long instance Station The ell Telephone Company (Ili CANADA 1
