Chances are you've seen those castings all over your garden and. lawn in the early morning. And chances are you may even have cursed their donor, the earth- worm, for leaving them there, Don't. There are good intentions behind the earthworm's seemingly sloppy habits. Every time it bur- rows, it's doing the soil a good turn. Zoologists of the Ontario De- partment of Agriculture say there may be as many as 50,000 earth- worms in a single acre of soil! They are capable of carrying more than 15 tons of earthy castings to the surface of an acre in one year! And in twenty years, these castings could reach a depth of three inches. With this in mind, it's not hard to imagine the tremendous chur- ning that goes on in the soil when the lowly earthworm sets to work. The soil is made more porous, gi- ving air and water a better chance to penetrate. This constant mixing action promotes good fertility. Tlie earthworm is one of our most useful garden tools.

Born in Hay Township on May 21, 1861, he was a son of the for- mer Mr, and Mrs. Simon Bedour. His parents were among the first settlers to come to the Bluewater highway from Quebec. Surviving besides his wife, the former Mary Louise Mireau, are one son, Joseph Hamel, Niagara Falls; one brother, William Bed - our, Detroit; and one sister, Mrs. John Gravelle, Goderich. There are also 10 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren. The body rested at the West- lake funeral home, Zurich, until Tuesday morning, when removal was made to St. Peter's R.C. Ch- urch, St. Joseph, where mass was sung at 9.30 a.m. Burial was made in. the adjoining cemetery. Rev. Father I. J- Poisson officiated. GINGERICH'S SALES & SERVICE LTD. ZURICH — SEAFORTH PICIMENNIMMINEEM Pruning May Help New Evergreens It irks a gardener to see his new evergreen looking more dead than alive — especially when he thinks of the price he paid for the thing. What's wrong? Horticulturists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture say that evergreens in such a state may be revived with a slight trim. In pines, the wilting "candles" may be shortened; in spruce and firs, the new growth may be trimmed back, except the leader, which should be left alone. Evergreens with feathery growth (Chinese cy- press) may be sheared lightly. Shipping damage usually shows up about three weeks after plant- ing. Most typical are broken ends that turn brown. Remove thein with a sharp knife or prunning shears. Spreading junipers have their troubles as well. If they are pack- ed too closely by the shipper, the main branches may split. Binding them right away with adhesive tape will give them a chance to heal. Growth should continue as usual. tl'coals FOR DEPENDABLE HEAT All Winter Long Coll LORNE E.
