Not Too .Late To Start.
If for some reason or otheiana gar-
den has been started yet it is no too
late • to put in many flower's and tceg-
etables. Of course, if possible, usa
started plants instead of seed with
those long season things like toma-
toes; cabbage, egg plants, celery and
cauliflower among the vegetate es sue
Zinnias, Cosmos. Petunias, Mari-
golds and a host of other flowers.
Then, too, it is advisable to use any
short cuts within reach, like plenty
of commercial fertilizer. and water
and cultivation. With„ later vege-
tables like corn, beanand melons,
this is very little behind schedule and
there is no reasn why three sowing;
abut a week apart cannot be made.
This continuous planting will spread
the harvesting season just that much
farther. Instead of depending upon
'leaf •lettuce, ordinary radish and spin-
ach which are among the first crops
gown and harvested it would be bet-
ter to plant Cos lettuce, a self bleach-
ing' hot weather sort, which if plant-
ed several times at” ten day intervals
will keep coming on all summt. In-
stead of the spring radish, the sum-
mer sort should be planted. and Swiss
Chard' in the place of spinach. This
latter vegetable will produce a sum-
mer supply of greens, the leaves be-
ing .used while the stems may be
cooked and prepared like asparagus.
Lima beans and Chinese cabbage are
regularly planted in' 'June.
Watch 'For Pests.
:Many a beautiful flower garden
and a highly satisfactory stand of
vegetables has been partially or to-
tally destroyed by attacks of insect
and fungus pests which might easily
have been controlled. Roughly speak-
ing, theinsect enemies are divided
into two groups, those that eat holes
in the foliage and those that suck out
the juices. For the first -named. poi=• -
on is usually applied, while the suck-
ers are attached with a burning spray
which penetrates their hides. Often
when both are present, a combination.
of poison and something that burns,
such as lime sulphur and arsenate,
glee the best results. Thedamage
from the biting insects is usually-
euite apparent, but the presence of
the other kind is only shown at ,first
by a wilting or withering of the fol-
iage. For sucking pests, chief of
which are the aphids or plant lice,
spray with whale oil soap, a quarter
pound of soap to a gallon and a half
of water; nicotine sulphate, or 'Black
Leaf 40,' ,or 'any other repellent se-
cured from a 'reliable seed .•store.
Cold water from a fine nozzle, under
high pressure, will sometimes wash
off the pests. When fungus attacks
the plants, the foliage usually turns
yellow or brown, or white spots like
mildew cover the leaves. Fungus is
usually most common in warm,
murky weather. Spraying with Bor-
deaux !Mixture, 9r dusting with spe-
cially finely ground sulphur is advis-
ed. Sulphur dust will also protect
hollyhocks and phlox from rust, if
applied when 'the disease first shows
itself. An ordinary tin can with tl-e
top. perforated like a salt stalker
makes a good duster. For .flowers,
it is well toadd a dry poison such'
as arrsenath of lead, or tobacco dust
to the sulphur, so that insects will
also be controlled. For eating in-
sects, one may spray with paris green,
arsenate of lead, hellebore or some
of the many patent poisonous pre-
parations.
Trimming.
Even annual flowers will benefit -
from a little judicious trimming or
prul?ing now and then. Many plants
like the dahlia and zinnia set a peat
quantity, of buds and if all of these
are allowed to develop the flowers
will not be very large. Some people
make a practice of removing nearly
all of these buds so as to have giant
blooms. For show , purposes, of
course, only three or four per plant
are allowed to open. With the very
tall growing -dahlias, trim the foliage
and sterns a little in order to get
the desired shape. Some people trim
to a single or main stem, like toma-
toes. With the smaller growing an-
nuals such as zinnias, cosmos, and
marigolds one •wants .just the oppos•
ite effect--bushiness—in order that
the plant may be sturdy and resist
heavy rains and winds. Removing
the top of the main stem and the
first buds will encourage side growth.
Another thing to remember at this
time is to remove all signs of fading
bloom. Once the flower is passed its
best, pick it, or if the stems are
short and the bloom numerous like
aylssum or phloit, shear it off. Oth-
theewise seed pods will start to !de-
velop and when this stage is reach-
ed the plant will stop flowering alto-
gether.
Cultivation.
With the bulk of planting over,
cultivation is the big job• in the gar-
den now. The objects are threefold,
first and probably least important to
keep dote weeds, second, to improve
the physical or mechanical condition
of the soil by letting in air and'break-
ing down lumps and thirdly, the most
important of all, to conserve moil-
ture during dry weather. Neither
vegetables or flowers will do well if
they receive a check in growth
throtl,•h lack of moisture, In sea-
sons of prolonged drouth, of course,
it is impossible to prevent a setback
unless one is fortunate enough to
have a supply of water, but cultiva-
tiers—will—help a lot as it • prevents
evaporation by creating a dust mulch
on the surface of the soil. Using a
special paper, now being generally
distributed. or vegetable refuse like
grass clippings, .bean and pea pods,
carrot tops, etc., also helps to con-
serve moisture. . The application of
commercial fertilizer is another fac-
tor in fighting dry weather as this
tends to keep growth going.
Window and Verandah Flew'er
Boxes.
Flower boxes, whether displayed at
a window sill or on a verandah, add.
charm to a home during the whop
summer. Geranium plants that have
brightened the home during the win-
ter, and have not grown too tall,
make suitable planting material, ant
if to these are added the bright -
leaved coleus and some vinee, even
nasturtiums, "'will, if kept moiet,
make a fine effect all summer long.
Annual plants, but especially- the
petunia, 'are ,eery suitable for flower
boxes. Bedding varieties of which
the Rosy Morn, a delicate beautiful
pink, is a good example, provide a
charming effect throughout the sea-
son. A mixture of purple and white
is pleasing, and these colours are us-
ually available at the growers at this
season of the year. 'Miniature zin-
nias, as well' as the dwarf double
French marigolds are very suitable
window box plants, particularly for
a sunny position where they keep up
a steady yield of bright. bloom. For
a drapery sweet alyssum. or the trail-
ing lobelia answer well. Nasturtiums
alone are particularly suitable, us-
ing the dwarf bedding varieties fer
.the main plants and the climbing
kinds to drop over the box in front.

plants, except nasturtiums, the soli
Should be made quite rich, because
the plants have to get their neces-
sary food during a long season from
a comparatively small amount of
soil. An inch or so of rotted manure
laid in the bottom of the box will
not only help the drainage but will
nourish the roots of the plants dur-
ing the summer. Ordinary garden
soil, if well enriched, is quite satis-
factory. It should be made fine by
sifting and with it incorporated a
fair amount of well -rotted fertilizef.
When planting, the box should be
about one-third filled with the en-,
riched soil. The planting should be-
gin by setting in the taller plants at
the back, establishing 'each by adding
the soil and; pressing it firmly. In
front of and between the larger
plants other plants should be set
across the boa and so distributed as
to gi'v'e a uniform appearance. The
planting of the vines should be left
to the last. A plant or two of the
old-fashioned Dusty Miller gives a
fine contrast, particularly among the
bright -leaved coleus. After the
plants have all been set the spaces
between should be carefully' filled
with soil firmly packed, •leaving a-
bout one-half an inch of space above
the soil for watering,

The second wall is the wall of po-
litical enmity. Political arguments
generate a lot of heat and very little
light, frequently make bad friend,•
and very few converts, Lionism does
not discourage its members in the
concern of matters political; on. the
contrary • it encourages a lively in-
terest and support 'of good gov2rn-
"tnent for your town, your province
and your 'nation. The difference be-
tween a politician and a statesman
is that a politician thinks of the next
election; a statesman thinks of the
next generation.• Therefore, Lionism
bids you be a statesman if you will,
but don't .be a politician. And Lion -
ism is right for there never was a
time in the history of the world when
we needed' statesmen more and poli-
ticians less. And so, Lionism with a
wisdom born of experience, forbids
controversial discussion of either
politics of religion and this brings
me to the third wall, the wall of re-
ligious intolerance.
By forbidding religious arguments
Lionism implies the right of every
man to worship according to the light
he 'has. Realizing that the only ,safe
way to ..save what is best is by the
practice of an immense tolerance, a
wide charity .and a respect for opin-
•ions that are not ours. Reminding us
that if a man does not belong to our
congregation, he does belong to our
God and the tragedy of Calvary was
for all men.
The fourth wall is the wall of so-
cial difference usually founded co

mendable pride that makes a man

I refer to that silly pride often call-
ed snobbery.

From the blossom of health to the

Lionism does not look up to the
rich .man nor down on the poor. ft
takes every man .at his face value
and asks him to live clean, work
hard, keep the Commandments of
God and respect the laws of hie coun-
try, and, in addition, to have suffici-
ent of the "milk of human kindness'
in his nature that he is willing to
give of his time and his substance
to extend a steadying arm to the
fellow who is slipping and ‘a helping
hand to incapacitated ,old age and
under -privileged youth.
The fast wall which we have time
for to -night is at once the most
unfortunate and terrible of all, the
wall of international misunderstand-
ing. Is there a Lion sitting here to-
night that would for one instant
doubt the unqualified success • of a
peace treaty or a disarmament •con-
ference if every representative pres-
ent at those conferences was a mem-
ber .of the international Lions. And
oh what a 'boon it would be to a
war -weary and tax -burdened world,
three-quarters of .whose taxes are
being spent in the payment of the
last war and the preparation for the
next. Rev. Charles Sumner, an An-
glican Bishop, said: "Give me the
money that is being spent in war
and I will clothe every man, woman
and child in the world in raiment
that a king or queen would be proud
to wear. I will put a school house
In every valley on this earth and I
will crown every hill with an edifice
of worship dedicated to the Gospel
of Peace." Lionism in its interna-
tional activities is striving to tear
down these horrible walls of interna-
tional intrigue, suspicion and hatred,
establish a monument of .peace oa

hood of pian and 'emblazon on the

in your organization and the prin-
ciples and service for wkich it stands.

growing in public knowledge arid fav-
or, and carry on in the assurance
that Lionism constructive, instructive
and destructive helps us to walk in
the footsteps of the great teacher,

in five simple words, He went about
doing good, and teaching us to live
in His counsel who gave us the great

I will tell you a little story, and I
am through. The story is of Rev.
Dr. Watson, better • known as Ian
McLaren. . He was on his way • to
church one hot, sultry Sunday morn-
ing, when he met a little girl carry-
ing a baby almost her own size. The
Reverened Doctor by way of kindly
sympathetic 2ecognition, said to the
little girl; "That baby is tou heavy
for you." The little girl set the
baby on the pavement and looking
up into the clergyman's face with
earnest wondering eyes, said: "He is -
not heavy, sir; he is my .brother."
Listen, Lions, some night when you
feel it is a little inconvenient to at-
tend a Lions meeting, some time
'When you think your last commit-
tee was a heavy job, some day when
you find Lionism is costing you a
little more than you feel you can af-
ford, stop and think of the poor
crippled child that is stretching out
its frail little hands to you as its
only hope. Think of the future
health and happiness of the chiidren
whose tonsils and adenoids you are
having removed, whose teeth -you are
having cared for, and whose eyes
you are having corrected. Think of
the ray of sunshine you are direct-
ing into the hearts of the care worn
mothers and world-weary fathers of
these children, and renew your zeal
and enthusiasm for Lionism and say
with the Little girl of my story:
"They are not heavy; they are my
brothers."
Shouts of Wolf, Wolf
From Sault Ste. Marie
That sprightly periodical Life has
been publishing ^a series of illustra-
tions about the well known wolf at
the well known door. The man of
the house instead of cowering be-
hind the door, opens, it, hauls the wolf
inside and 'lam proceeds to take hi;
skin to make clothing for the chil-
dren. He has turned his adversity
into prosperity. Mulch the same thing
has happened in 'Sault Ste. Marie.
Instead of apologizing iteseethe wolves
which are known to infest the Al-
goma wilds, it has capitalized them'.
Mr. James W. Curran, editor of the
Sault Ste. Marie Star, has made the
nation wolf -conscious, and alas even
succeeded in sending delicious a;xlrud-
ders through neighboring American
states by his wolf stories. From what
Mrr. Curran has written about. Al-
goma wolves, we understand them to
be rather more docile than cooker
spaniels and equally affectionate.
They never kill anybody; they never
bite anybody, and the odor that per-
vades their dei is such that upon
enteldmg one the stranger is seized
by the illusion that he is walking
into a conservatory. 1}f there there no
cats in the ''Soo, the reason is that
the Humane Society has painlessly
destroyed them ill order that the
waives might take. their place ' as

WIFE WAS FAT—
No Longer Attractive
Lost Husband's Love
The above headline* appeared ' in a
New York newspaper, in connection
with a divorce trial that has attracted
wide attention.
"She was a 'beautiful woman," one
witness testified, " but she got too fat
and is not attractive any more."
Thousands of women are getting
fat and losing their beauty — just
because they do not know what to do.
If you are fat, why not do what
thousands of women have done to get
rid of pounds of unwanted fat ? Take
one half a teaspoon of Kruschen Salts
in a glass of hot water every morning
before breakfast, and keep it up for
8O days. You 'tart help the action of
Kruschen by cutting out pastry and
fatty meats, and going light on potatoes,
butter, cream and sugar. Then weigh
yourself and see how many pounds you
have lost.
Now you cat' lash at the people
who pay hundreds of dollars to lose a
few pounds of fat, and you will know
that the 6 vitalizing salts of Krusehen
have presented you with glorious health.
far communicated itself to the hu-
man population of Sault Ste. Marie
that they have nicknamed their city
"The Friendliest Town in Canada."
And we gather from some printer
matter that has been sent to that
the people of the Soo are ready to
prove their claims. In any eveat,
they are holding a Wolf Week, as
a kind of Old Home Week and are
inviting all and •'sundry to attend'
from July 25th to 34th, and as long
before and after as they can toler-
ate. There will be special excursions,
barbecues, professional swimming
races, an old time singing contest,
with Sweet Adeline as the star turn.
There will also be a presentation of
'Longfellow's Hiawatha by Ojibway
Indians, and naturally the wolves
will be on display. Also, if anyone
is curious as to how a birch bark
canoe is ibuit, he 'can find out,
though we can imagine a good many
more thrilling sights ourself.
Another feature of historic inter-
est will be .the return of a British
flag which was captured by American
invaders of the Soo in 1814 on orders
of 'Governor Roosevelt. Mr. Curran
admits that the Curator of the State
Museum at Albany has not yet been
able to identify the flag which, ac-
cording to information available at
the Soo, was last seen "in a glass
case in the State 1Museum at Al-
bany," But if this particular flag
cannot be found we have no doubt
that Mr. Curran's enterprise will be
more than equal to the task of hunt-
ing out another flag, perhaps a good
deal newerand more serviceable. We
make ..this statement confidently' in
view of the fact that among those
whom he has especially invited to be
present, is Mrs,. Richard Henry Dana,
daughter of the poet Longfellow, to
see thedramatizgcion of Hiawatha.
Now Mrs. •Dana has been dead for
some fifteen years, but we expect
to see in the Sault Star toward the
end of August a vivid Pen picture of
her arriving in the Soo and being
welcomed by a pack' of wolves. In
short, nothing will be left undone to
make the Wolf Week a carnival long
to be remembered.
It is hinted that perhaps Mary
Pickford will be present. The '"per-
haps" again does insufficient justice
to the determination of Mr. Curran
who if he can produce ladies defunct
these many years can surely induce
the screen star to appear. Maybe
she 'will play -a dual role, that . of
Mrs. Richard ;Hlenry Dana on Tues-
days, Thursdays and Saturdays, and
A'merica's Sweetheart for the re-
mainder of the week. Miss Pickford
will be especially* photographed tak-
ing afternoon . tea with a wolf. An-
other attraction for harassed Ameri-
cans particularly is the published an-
nouncement that there will be no
!peevish speed cops permitted to mar
the festal occasion. The rumor that
the state of the roads adjacent to
Sault Ste, 'Marie makes the presence
of speed ceps unnecessary would be
repudiated with 'vigor by 1VPr. Curran.
In his forthcoming bill we expect
him to point out to American visitors
that those in search of liquid al-
leviation will be as free to indulge'
themselves as delegates to the Ameri-
can political conventions in Chicago.
Another part of the jamboree like-
ly to prove very attractive will be
the excursions into the surrounding
wilderness, guided by Indians and
voyageurs. Almost at the door of
the Soo are miles of rapids, but as
safe as the Soo Wolves are tame;
trout streams, bush trails, unnamed
lakes and vast forests. There is no
part, of the continent where one can
speed a pleasanter week than at
the Soo; nowhere else, perhaps, where
what they ca'l'l the great outdoors
comes so close to Main Street and
the weekly luncheons of the Rotary
'Club. It should appeal to Canadians
quite as strong as to Americans, anu
if there are not many thousands 'of
them present when the signal is given
for the pet 'lamb to chase the wolf
pack thro'u'gh the streets, thus in-
augurating the circus, there will be
a cad heart in the bosom of James'
W. Curran, who, it' is not generally
known, is the original of Truthful
James, hymned by Bret Harte.

FARM NOTES
Weekly Crop Report.
Spring crops are looking excellent
as a result of copious rains, follow-
ed by warm weather, according to
reports reeei'(ted from agricultural re-
presentatives, , Fall wheat is reported
to be making favorable progress and
all classes of hay crop are doing
well. Alfalfa and !clover are coming
along particularly well. A good 'har-
vest of berries and cherries is ex-
pected and apple orchards have re-
vealed a heavy 'bloom in most dis-
tricts.
The Flax Seed Industry. ,
:Flax is ; a "crop which is at '(pre-
sent receiving a bit of attention by'
farmers throughout the country.
There are two principal uses for the
crop, fibre and seed. Varieties giv-
ing the beet fibre are not so well suit-
ed to seed production and, at the
present time, the bulk of Canadian
production is devoted to flax seed,
which has reaefhed an average of ov-
er 3,000,000 bushels annually. Some
two and a half�n'ullion bushels of this
volume: are used! domestically in the
manufacture of Iinseed oil. The var-
ieties which are specially developed
throughout the Dominion at the pres-
ent time are those which offer great-
est value from the standpoint of
quality of seed and high percentage
of oil content.
Handicraft in Rural Ontario.
At a number of the Women's In-
stitutes conventions held in various
parts of the province during October
and November each year for several
years now, splendid exhibits of art-
icles produced in. the home have
shown that a great variety of useful
articles are made by the women of
rural Ontario. These exhibits have
consisted of quilts, blankets,. rugs,
spreads, hangings and various art-
icles of clothing made from compara-
tively inexpensive goods and such
material as flour bags, feed bags,
discarded clothing, etc.. Many wo-
men efficient in one line or another
have organized classes within the In-
stitute and' passed on valuable in-
formation and methods to the fellow
members. Lamp shades, leather work,
wax work, flowers, decoration of vas-
es, etc., have been included in the
program.
In addition to what the .members
have done for each other the Insti-
tutes Branch has provided instruc-
tors in handicraft at 26 centres dur-
ing 1931. Arrangements are bein
made to have exhibits of various
types of handicraft at the, conven-
tions to be held next fall.
Graded Seeds Increase Sales.
Ontario farmers who •grow quanti-
ties of turnips forshipment either to
domestic or -foreign markets, will do
well to select carefully the seed they
sow. Yields aridr uniformity of crop
are greatly enhanced by the euse of -
well -graded turnip seed, according to
Prof. W. J. 'Squirrell of the Ontario
Agricultural Collegd "Small iseed
should not 'be sown and may readily
be screened out by using a clover
seed screen from the fanning mall."
An experiment, carried out during the
past shipping season in marketing
better "rutabagas," or table turnips,
clearly indicated the importance of
careful selection, cleanliness, uni-
formity and distinctiveness. One
chain store system in Toronto doubl-
ed its sales by offering to •the con-
sumers a well -graded, washed and in-
dividually 'branded rutabaga. The
possibilities of extending the market
output of this type of '.product are ex-
ceedingly bright.
Feed For the Chicks. "
The feeding of chicks is the acme
of simplicity, consisting of keeping
the water and the hoppers filled with
fresh water and the hoppers filled
with grit, oyster shell and charcoal
and a good chick starter, either com-
mercial or home mixed.. The follow-
ing is a chick starter that has given
excellent results at the Cehtrai
Farm:' 1 part shorts, 1 part mid-
dlings, 1 part ground yellow corn, 1
part ground oats % part animal
feed mixture, 3 per cent. bone meal,
1 per cent. salt, 1 per cent. cod liver
oil.
The animal feed mixture used is
made up of equal parts ground beef
scrap, fish meal and milk powder.
When liquid milk can be had the
milk powder is omitted.
Weather permitting the chicks are
allowed on to 'the ground as Soon as
they get used to their quarters, say
by a week er ten days, and a little
scratch grain is then added to the
ration to keep them; busy.
Alberta Alfalfa Killed.
'Ontario alfalfa seed producers will
be affected somewhat by the fact that
Alberta will likely be out of the pic-
tpre in production of alfalfa seed
this year. A. report received by the
Ontario Marketing Board states that
all stands over two years of age in
Brooks district, which is the chief
producing area, have been killed.
The Apple Maggot.
According to a recent statement
by Charles W. Bauer, secretary On-
tario !Gro'wers' (Markets Council,
Hamilton, about half the apple or-
chards in Ontario are infected with
the apple maggot. The infestation
in the main is slight, but there are
some heavily -diseased orchards in
some 'counties. Mr. Andrew Fulton,
overfeas fruit representative, has
advised that Britain Will, place an
embargo on all early supplies of
apples if maggot is found in one
shipment. This, danger necessitates
growers taking every practical mea'i-
ure to eliminate the insect from all
commercial orchards at least. They
are urged to spray thoroughly for
control of these pests.
Suggest Filling 'in Thin. Alfalfa
Stands.
"In travelling , throughout the
greater part of Ontario during the
past few weeks, I have noticed quite
a number of bare spots in seeded
down fields," states a Huron County
observer. "This condition applies
particularly to alfalfa ,fields and has
occurred usually where the shocks of
grain stood too long last fall. These
bare spots might easily be re -seeded
at the present time and not only the
appearance of the field improved, but
the yield, would be increased and

It is suggested that one simply
go over the fields and sprinkle a
little seed over each bare spot. Then
the whole field is harrowed, this op-
eration covering the new seed and
doing no injury to the growing al-
falfa, provided it is carried cut in
the next few weeks. Indeed many
good farmers make it a regular
