He said five people have died in the past two months as a re- sult of carbon monoxide fumes believed to have been caused by blocked flues from propane gas-fired refrigerators. Mr. Bales said that these ref- rigerators, used extensively' in summer cottages, campers and mobile homes, must be properly cleaned and maintained at least once a year. Otherwise, he said there was a chance that people might become victims of carbon monoxide poisoning. He said the Department of Labour through its Energy Branch, transferred to his department from the Department of Energy and Resources earlier this month, will supply information on servicing of these refrigerators, Correspondent: Mn.

According to hort- iculturists with the Ontario Dep- artment of Agriculture and Food, perennial flower seeds can be sown in flats or cold frames or in beds in the garden. The soil should be well prepar- ed as many of the seeds are quite small, The addition of sand and peat to a clay soil or of peat to a sandy soil will be beneficial. The soil should be well raked and worked up to provide a good seed- bed. About 2 ounces of super- phosphate fertilizer per bushel of mixture will increase plant growth The seeds should be sown is rows and lightly covered with soil. The depth of sowing will vary but a good rule of thumb is to cover the seed to twice its thickness with soil. • When the seedlings are large enough to handle they should be transplanted to other flats or beds so that they have sufficient room to develop satisfactorily. They can be overwintered in beds prov- ided good protection is available, or they may be overwintered in cold frames covered with wood. The following spring, these plants can be set in the perennial border. ,7? -14 BEAN ° IN ZURICH 5AT. AUGUST12' ACTIVITIES BEGIN AT NOON HOME COOKED BEANS —.

Prepare Soil Now for Lawns Right now, is the best time to prepare the lawn area for fall seeding, •according to horticult- urists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food. This will allow sufficient time for in- itial preparation which, if well done, will reduce the work and cost of maintenance, The lawn area should be coverer with topsoil to a depth of 5 or 6 inches. If the topsoil has been removed during construction it must be replaced, If the soil is heavy it can be made more pli- able by the addition of organic matter such as manure, leafinold, compost or peat. . Late summer or early fall is the safest time to start the new lawn. By then the hottest and driest part of the summer has passed -and most weeds have stop- ped growing.

Citizens News—August 13 Cases of Rcth'ies Reported High (continued from page 1) care may be taken to eliminate further sperad of the disease. Rabies is a virus disease which affects the central nervous system of animals and humans. The sym- ptoms produced by the disease vary from incident to incident, but, by and large, all animals behave in a peculiar manner and attempt to attack other animals and thus propagate the disease, as live virus is frequently found in the saliva of infected animals, The disease is usually fatal if proper PAGE E1 EVEN. avasive action is not taken prior to the beginning of symptoms of the disease, It would appear that rabies will continue to pose a potential hazard to dogs and cats in Huron County. In order to alleviate, at least in part, this hazard it has been decided that the Canada Department of Agriculture, Health of Animals Branch, in co-operat- ion with the Huron County Health Unit, will again conduct free anti -rabies vaccination clinics for dogs and cats in this county. The clinics will commence on August 24 in the northern area, and end on September 16 in the southern area. AUGUST SPECIALS!
