Window Boxes
A brown or green stained window
box overgowing with 'g!aily iblaonsing
tlawers is within the 'range of almost
every person. There lack of 'grouitd
space does not matter. Even the
lefty apartment 'dweller is 'sable to
s'at'isfy a garrdening ambition. Suc-
cess is e'ashiy.'obtained provided two
or three 'points are kept in mind.
This sort of gardening is highly in-
tensive witch many more plants to
'bhe square foot than would be grown
under ordinary con'd'itions. This
means 'that very. rich soil should be
used and .in addition a fairly fre-
quent •application of chemical fer-
tlilizer during the season. The box
must be pf' fair depth, at. least seven
inches Of •soil being available. Being
exposed on all sides to drying winds,
•a thorough watering. 'once a day is
adv'is'ed.
The box should be as long as the
window and should be arranged so
that the top of it is almost flush
with the window sill. .I£ higher, the
foli:a.ge of the plants wall soon filo up
most of the window. There must be
holes in the (botom-to provide drain-
age, and alts, a layer of gravel; cin-

Mosiquitoes, like warbles and bots
of cattle and horse's, are dealt with
most suc'eeslsfully on an organized
cioinmuniity basis. The !reaasan for
this is that •the ;breeding places of
mosquitoes are usually scattered 'over
a wide area. Indiv!idnal effort" is
worth1hide, but results from it may
be offset to some extent by. the 'mi=
. gration of mosquitoes frolrn untreat-
ed places elsewhere in the vicinity.
A number of communities in various
parts of Canada' brave taken organiz-
ed action against the mosquito nuis-
ance and have secured excellent re-
sults at very l:ow cost. It is no long-
er necessary to tolerate these annoy-
ing pests: comb/lenity action so'lve's

campaigns may be obtained by writ-

Three Late Ones
Even in the more northerly sec-
tions of Canada it will soon be time
to plant 'those rather tender flowers
swell as Dahlias, Gladiolus and Can-
nes. .None of t'hes'e with the pos-
srilble exception. of gladiolus, will
stand any frit, but because all are
bulbs or corms sand are planted sev-
eral bitches deep a light , frost after
they are set ,lout but before the
's•hoots appear will not do any
damage: Rules are sailmiple. ' Fairly
rich, but loose garden soil is pre-
ferred by all three, though •goold re-
sults from Dahlias, can be obltained
in •almost !any •kind of soil. The
bullbe or norms sahoutd' be 'planted

these as well as 'all flowers of vivid•
coloring, a. position 'which is slight-
ly shaid'ed.around noon is 'preferable
to protect. the Ibleam's . from being
'bleached out by the hot sun.. These
flowers will benefit from• a thorough
soaking during the hot, dry weather.
Tender Vegetables
. The snore tender sorts of vege-
tables are .beans, tomato plants,
squash, cucu'mb'ers, and melons„ They
will neat start to .grow until the
weather amd soil really 'beeonies
warm. In or'd'er to get a long and
steady supply .of green beans make
at least three plantings et intervals
of tem days and use several varie-
ties. To do the same thing with
tc netoes, one may use a. few well
started plants for the first crop and
hurry th'es'e along with fertilizer and
possibly mulch ipiap'er: All :garden
tomatoes should be staked . *sting
either 'wooden) or s'te'el stakes about
six feet . high. Trim off all side
s!hobts as they develop., training the:
main sltem, up along the stake and

Farm. Notes
Couch,. Grass Eradication
. After .harvest cultivation is one of
the most effective methods of II -con-
trolbing couch gna!sst This' ntbit!hod
consists of plorwingg the infe'st'ed area
imknediiately after the first cut of
hay' has been harvested, thoroughly'
working the land dur.'inlg the rem'aind-
e'r 'of the s'eaabn and replowing in .the
late fall. In the following spring this
treatnemiy mauls', be followed by an
inter -tilled crop or a smrbbherr crop
such as buckwheat.
Couch grass is a most persistent
weed and its growth neust be kept
down for at least six months in or-
der to secure complete eradication'.
This requires. treatment during two
s'eas(ons where crops are being har-
vested each year.
urrent C p Report
During the past week or two of
warn weather, fruit ]suds have de-
veloped very rapidI1 r in the 'orchard
districts and the first spray has been
applied. Fall wheat and clover 'Nave
made exceptional growth and pros-
pects for the's'e cropsappear bright
in the majority of distliet's. The warm
rains have had a very beneficial ef-
fect and the whole countryside gives
excellent 'promise. , Early seeding has,
been under way in the majority of
counties. In• 'South SH'nrlcaoe 100 bags
of eerti'fi'ed Kataihdin potatoes have
been distributed almtong 30 growlers,.
This is a new Valriety and will be
tried out this year as an experiment.
Seed -cleaning plants in many parts
of'the province have (been running to
capacity, for several weeks and..•report;
