by utandin_ the pots in shallow
Crave filled w•itl' Pebbles, gravel, or
those and keeping their, moist. Nor-
mal ±uojsgern, also dependent on
good drainage, •This can best be
arranged by using soil in the pot
that will allow both air and water
to pass through easily. A mixture of
two parts gond garden loam soil, one
part rotted manure, and one part
sand will generally fulfil the soil re-
quirements of potted plants. To
prevent the surface of the soil from
caking and thus prevent the access
o fair, stir the surface .gently from
time to time. Further drainage may
be obtained by placing pebbles or
small stories or broken parts of an
old pot at the bottom of the pot, so
as to heelp draw off excess water.
The placing of the plants to their
best advantage calls for some con-
sideration. All plants will not flour-
ish anywhere, and care should be
taken to put the plant where it will
not stand in a draft. Concerning
sunlight, different plants apparently
have different preferences. For ex-
ample, ferns should not he placed
in direct sunlight but where there
is an abundance of light all round,
On the other hand, flowering plants
es a rule require all the sunlight
they can get, particularly in winter
time. Foliage plants can thrive all
right in dim light but in winter time
they should be placed in direct 81.1n -
light.
I-Iowever. the great secret of hav-
ing fresh -looking plants in the home
in the winter is to avoid the over-
heating of rooms. It is a good plan
to commence the winter care ofthe
plants as soon as the heat is turned•
on in the fall. More house plants
have been killed by heat than by
cold. Plants should never be placed
to near radiators. The ideal tem-
perature • for house plants is about
05 degrees, or better still from 00
to f5 degrees F., three degrees iess
than the recommended hone tem-
1lratln'e from the: ,health point of
view. if one desires to have the
plants in the living rooms, the hest
thine' to do is to keen the rooms as

.. R and someday, WE'LL take a trap ! "
SOMEWHERE in the back of your
mind, there's that urge to . go
places. Right now it must be filed
under "Future's but it's part of us as
Canadians to want to discover for
ourselves what the rest of the world
is like—to plan for that "sone day,')
when we'll take a trip! That's why
it must be part of our planning now,
to make sure such pleasant things as
-trips are possible in the post-war
world. And they'll be possible only
if we fight against inflation—fight
now to keep Canada's dollar worth a
full dollar!
Why is NOW so important? Be-
cause NOW civilian goods are scarce,
money is plentiful: NOWis the time
we must guard against paying more
than things are worth—against black
markets—against buying more than
we need, or goods we, don't need!
NOW' is the time we must support
rationing and price controls!
Up to the present, we've kept our
dollar sound. And we can continue
to do so if we keep up a strong,
steady fight against inflation!
If we fail in this fight, prices will
rise. Wages will never quite catch
up. - Soon you'll pay, perhaps a
dollar for a quarter's worth of goods!
And that means your dollar is worth
only a quarter! That's inflation.
And after inflation, comes de-
pression. Depression means neither
you nor anyone else in Canada will
have trips. You'll be lucky if you
have a job! So, for our own sakes,
for the sake of returned men, for our
children, let's never relax our struggle
to keep Canada's dollar worth a full
dollar!

in fighting inflation
By observing rotioning and avoiding
black markets in any shape or
form,
By respecting price controls and other
anti-insation measures, and re-

By buying Victory Bonds and War

by all such measures
which will lower the
cost of living and
help keep prices ata
