He bought a .strock of gum one day at the corner grocery alert he discovered that by sending away so many w'rapp'ers 'he coned ob- taio a package of stamps—absolutely 'free. Like ,any (other ten -year-old youngster .the idea of getting .somee thing for ,nothing appealed to him So (Clifford .began saving gum wrappers wed it wasn't larany days before he gent away for his 'first ,batch of stamps. There were .ao other stamp fanciers in Delta at the time rand the .business of coilreeting them was not 'the easiest thing in the world that you tan imag- ine. It simply simmered down to this: if Clifford was go ng to get anywhere with his -collection he Would have to chew more gum. So phew more gum he did. Sometimes, be oonfesses, even while be sat in church listening to 'his father preach. .13.1.11 young Carmichael did not stop' there. Not a bit of it. He got his !bro- thel', Howard, to chew gum too and the iiair of them formed a partner- ship. They not only had most of the older folk in the viilage saving stamps for them, but they had nearly all the other youngsters in the .neighborhood ehewing this particular brand of gum.

P1COBAC. , PIPE TOBACCO FORA MILD:COOL SMOKE re: In discussing the fact of parasite,. on sheep and methods for their con- trol. a Canadian .authority gives four good reasons as to •why it pays to dip sheep. These are: G. Sheep that are free from ticks and lice grow more a:nd better wool. 2. A quilt flock requires less feed and is more insily kept 1>4 good condi- tion. 3. The latob crop is stronger, ewes milk 'better, and Iambs grow more rapidly. 4. Paeasites are a source of serious discomfort to sheep. The good shep- herd should be mindful of the comfort of his flock. also points out that as s result of ,dipping the saving in feed and in- creased 'weight of tenths and wool may easily amount to (from 5.0c to $11.50 per 'ewe.

Number of Trees per Acre In (forest planting in 'Ontario the trees are rgenerally set out six feet apart in rows and the rows six feet apart. Such close Planting is neces- sary because the ground will soon be- come shaded by foliage, which will conserve moisture in the soil, kill out grass and weeds, and assist in forming a mulch. .Also, if the soil is poor or wet, or .grassy and weedy, close planting must be .drone in 'antici- pation of failures. As a guide in determining the num- ber of trees to order for a given area. 4,7142 trees are required to plant an acre when the spacing is 5 feet iby 6 feet, rand 1,110 trees are required if the spacing is 6 feet by 6 feet. When plooting a windbreak either the isengle or .douible TOW may be used. In a .single TOW the trees may be pleated 6 to 110 feet apart, the average being 8 feet. Pf two rows are -desired the trees should ,be 6 to eel Feet apart in the row .and the two rows 8 feet apart. When using the Iwo row olan it is recommended that the trees la.• planted alternately so as to provide the maximum protection from the wind.

Many will associate it with the age-old festival of .Cancelemas. To others it is the month of hope •because each .day is getting visibly longer and brings .with it those superb sunrises and sunsets—one of the signs that , speing is, on its way. The igroemelhog wakes, stretches, peobahly yawns and has a good scratch; then peeps at 'the 'world, Another harbinger of spring. In the middle of the month comes the festival of Saint Valentine, which has, for ages, been associated with the mating of young 'things. !Geoffrey Chaucer Wrote in 'his quaint olei 'Eng- lish (five centuties ago: "Saint -Valentynel to you i renovele (renew) My wolui lyf, as I can, compley- nine: Upon your day doth ech foul ohese his make." (doth each bird choose his mate) Yet another kind of mating (and, doubtless infinitely mare interesting!) is 'suggested in Shakespeare's "Ham- let": "Tornorrove is St. Valentine's Day All in the morning- lbetinee, And I a maid at Your 'window, To be your Valentine." • The plant kingdom too is aware of the approach of .spring. The tree -sap is again p,erforming the miracle of rising against the force of gravity.
