PERENNIAL BORDER Don't neglect your peren- nial border now if you want it .to be beautiful next year, says D.M. Sangster, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food horticulturist. Get out of that lawn chair, put on your gardening gloves, and cut off all faded perennial blooms. This will not only make your border look better, but will prevent seed setting. Remove all withered and dried foliage, too. July and August are ideal months for dividing iris plants, but you should wait until October before dividing your peonies.

Use seat belts to be safe The correct use of seat belts is the best way to avoid serious injury or death after a vehicle collides with another obstacle and plunges into water, the Ministry of Trans- portation and Communicat- ions has announced. A study conducted in the Netherlands by the Institute for Road Safety Research indicated that in more than half of all traffic accidents involving water, vehicles involved had collided with another obstacle before going into the water. Since occupants must be able to react quickly, escape depends on remaining consc- ious and free from serioujs injury. And properly fasten- ed seat belts prevent further injury during the severe jolt that occurs even at low speeds when a vehicle coll- ides with water. The doors of a submerged vehicle, in nearly all cases tested, were impossible to open because of outside water pressure. Thus windows offer the best escape route, the study concluded. Ontario statistics in 1974 show that of 28 people drown- ed following a collision, none wore seat belts.
