The Succession Duty Act relates to

took nearly all of Wither day in the
House as pra,oticallr all today's i sit-
ting was IdevOted to the bill dealing
with this question..
This wase «efi,nitely a lawyer's day`
and it was interesting to hear the dif,
ferent interpretations being put on
sections of the bill by these legal gen-
tlemen. In refereuee.10 .this tax some
thought it would ass„fst in destroying
individual initiative;; as it would cre-
ate a situation whereby the individual
would feel that there is little use in
trying to make savings; which the
state will pick off as soon as death
comes, as come it will.
Another view that great wealth in
many instances accrued from the ex-
poitation directly .or indirectly of the
public domain and that really the
state in the last analysis is only com-
ing into it own. Cabinet changes are
evidently to take ,place as Mr. Gard-
iner is going back to, agriculture
alone, and is not to carry on the War
Services Department. The Prime Min-
ister admitted this in answering a
question of the leader of the opposi-
tion.
A jacket of, correspondence was
tabled today by the Prime Minister
regarding an international wheat con-
ference to be held in Washington
shortly.
The essential features of the Wash-
ington
ashington conference will be to evolve
an international formula, of controlled
production; in order to bring it into
some reasonably harmonious relation
with the world demand. While the
United States has not'fixed a price en
wheat that Canada could pay the du-
ty of 42 cents a bushel and eell same
there, the U.S. has placed a quota on
.the amount that we can Bell to that.

Big business is being done this year
in bacon. 'A total of 425 million
pounds is to go to Britain in 46 in-
stead of the 52 weeks. With the in-
crease now demanded by Britain,
Canadians will be asked not to use
more than they did last year and the
house consumption was the highest
on record last year.
The Conservatives had a caucus to-
day and Mr. Hanson has been asked
Lb lead the House for another session.
A party conference is to be held in
October, and no doubt plans will be,
laid to reorganize the whole party.

while Parliament will soon adjourn, it

There is also the waterways scheme
to be considered. There are .reports
that this scheme is going to meet stiff
opposition as there is a very strong

Before the House adjourns the
Prime Minister will make an an-

There was, as usual, a 'continual
barrage of criticism against the
amusement tax on, movie pictures and
also on sports which are commercial-

kept a continued opposition, until fin-

advise hinl how to raise the money

Tr'ansplanting Hurts
Success with transplanting carr be
assured by watering thoroughly after
plant„ shrub or tree is proved. Of
next importance will be stimulant.
Moving a plant is something ince

the larger the specimen the more nec-
essary the attention., With shrubbery
and trees often main roots are cut

of water after setting outis not too

watering should he repeated two or
three times a week, if a quick start
is wanted.
With ordinary annuals and peren-
iais liberal watering is also advisable
and shelter from hut sun for the first
few days. Some pick-up in the way
of quickly available commercial fer-
tilizer will 'help at this time, merely
a pinch for small things like tomato
plants or asters, and perhaps up to a
couple of handfuls for shrubs and
trees.
Care should be taken in, the use of
any chemical fertilizer that it does

the dry state it is liable to burn. Ex -
Layouts
If certain almost elementary rules
are followed in laying out flower gar-
dens, not only will results be en-
hanced but the maintenance of that
garden made more .simple. •
The first rule is to allow sufficient
spate between each plant for full
growth. With such things as COSMOS
or the large zinnias and marigolds
this means at least 15 Mabee. A good
rule to follow is to allow half as much
space between as the t ;ant is high
at maturity. This ,yardst'ck, indeed,
may, be applied right thrown the full
range of gardening. If thio much
space is allowed than vital cultleatieIi
and weeding can be carried Out eas-

Smaller Plants in Front
Another first rule is to place the
smaller plants at the front of the bed
otherwise their growth and blooms
will be hidden.• • Care must be exer-
cised in doing titin, however, to avoid,
