As climbing t es bloom on last year's wood the cines must he kept in good health or there will be very few if any flowers When the weather turns cop! the mtc ho'uld be taken down from their sii p,,rt and tied together. The und,e of canes shoo,'( be laid on the ground and earth mounded up around the root: to the height of twelve or eighteen inches. In some varieties the canes are stiff and should be hent over as far as possible and tied to a stake that has been driven into the ground. After the ground is frozen the canes ;honld e covered with dry leaves or straw and these covered with boards, nlacrl together to form an inverted V so that water will drain off. It is i!nportant that the canes should be kept dry es moisture may freeze on the hark and damage it. ,Building naoer is sometimes used, In spring the covering should be removed grad- ually, In places where mice are troublesome some wheat soaked in lnison should be placed under the envering as they frequently damage 'he ,hark of the rose. Bush roses such as .Hybrid ;Perpet is atod Hybrid Teas bloom on, the wood, so that it is not necessary keep the whole of the stems alive es the plant will grow and flower if cut back to three or four eyes, The earth should be mounded up around the stems as recommended for climb- and after it is frozen, strawy man - 're. straw or leaves: placed over the. serfs and covered with pine :boughs, rnrnstatks or chicken wire to keep it nal CP, ;As the amount of prateotion re - nuked for plants varies according to lot climate it is advisable to Sind out chat method ha,e proved successful e•ith other gardeners in the district. —Experimental !Farms ,Note.

EGG DISHES tBy using a 'little ingenuity the housewife, can often make a number df sunp.risingly appetising dishes from simple ingredients, Eggs offer a s wide a range as any- thing and provide, at very little cps(,. a -meal suitable 101- any part of the day. With Cream Eggs and cream served in cups stake a delightful 'light 'dis'h, One of the best ways to peepare it is to separate the whites • from the yolks, add a teaspoonful of cream for the white of each egg and a dessert- spoonful of fresh or tinned corn maize. Mix this well and half -fill each cup, then adding the yolk. Cover with creast and .place in a medium oven un- til firm, yet gtti'te soft. These can be served either hot or cold, and in place of corn any puree of a favorite vegetable or fish may be .added. At the :beginning of a hot 'luncheon cold soft boiled eggs served in a mix- ture ,af .pimento and -'cream cheese nate an excellent appetiser, while hot soft-boiled eggs, carefully peeled and 'placed on 'chopped spring greens or spinach and edged with mashed pot- atoes, snake a good simple meal. iEggs and .•vegetables can form the basis for many ;tasty meals, of which the ,following is typical:— Take ypical:(Take any number. :of vegetables in season and .steam until tender. Boil enough barley to make •a paste, place the vegetables into it and allow them to become cold, :Curt sonte hard-boiled eggs in half and turn out the yolk 'Mash witheither a little. soft butter; 'cream or noayona'i.sse dressing, acicl a little fresh tomato juice and refill. Place the stuffed eggs round the ,bar- ley paste and 'vegetables and serve with parsley :garniture. 'Eggs and IfisIt offer even grealter vpr- iety cif meals than eggs and'veget- ahles. For a 'holt mid-day (ileal try tuna fish in tins', shredded and mixed into an omelette, scrambled or placed under soft poached eggs and edged with s'olt, hot cream rice.
