„treats the elected rePresentative of
the people with contempt,, he suggests
the punishment of the people them-
selves. The disfranchisement of the
constituency is the type of thing a
-dictator resorts to. It is a tyrannical
igtioring of a fundamental democratic
principle.
The refusal to ,grant Mr. Haines the
-opportunity to test the mind of his
••Constitnency, sets Mr. Hepburn in the
light of a very poor sport. Mr. Haines,
representing as he believes the views
of the majority of his constituents on
a matter about which many of them
are much concerned, has made his
protest and now backs it up by risk-
ing his political life. It is his only re-
sort. It is an honourable and courag-
eous thing to do. Mr. Hepburn in har-
mony with his autocratic and dictat-
orial mind, suggests that he may dis-
regard the democratic principle, and
void the members right of appeal.
Mr. Hepburn has the power to do it,
but that power is an accident, and if
it is exercised, it will be used in con-
tradiction to the direct mandate of
The Ontario Legislature. Some years
-tego, the law of Ontario was amend-
ed by, the Legislature, so that it now
provides that when a vacancy in the
assem ly has existed for three
month , a writ for a bye -election shall
• issue "orthwith. That is the law' of
• Onbario.
The Legis ature, however, neglected
close all he avenues ,for the evas-
ion , will. Returning officers who
set up and control the machinery for
elections, are in the -provincial field,
non -permanent unlike their parallel
in the Federal Constituency. They
are appointed by' the. cabinet,. when
-en election is in view. The Legislat-
ures, possibly trusting in the honor
of governments, failed to make it
mandatory within three months. So
long as there is 11'n returning officer
named, there is no one to whom the
• chief election officer can issue the
writ, and no election can take place.
- By simply ignoring the situation,
and failing to appoint a returning
•officer, the. cabinet negatives the will
of the Legislature, denies the people
• their right and causes a violation of
• the law of Ontario. In a case like the
present, it is obviously to the govern-
ment's advantage that the people
should not give judgment speedily. If
it' can be delayed until interest has
subsided, 'the issue can be crowded
out of view by other matters, and. the
governnient is the gainer.
In view of the preponderant liberal
majority in the Legislature and the
impossibility of any • bye -elections
seriously effecting the status •of the
parties in the house, there is, we be-
lieve, some sort Of inter -party agree-
ment to ignore vacancies during the
war period. This agreement, no
doubt, had in view vacancies through
death, promotions or other ordinary
causes. It could scarcely have con-
templated- a vacancy resulting 'from a
direct challenge to government action.
• That is a Vacancy of an altogether
distinct character. It involves import-
ant democrati,erights. It calls for
action.
• There used to exist 'among gentle-
men. what was called "A Court of
Honor." By its usage when challeng-
ed to a 'duel issued, the fkilure to
accept 'on fair terms, marked) tbe chal-
lenged as a coward and a paltreon.
Th b right of appeal • to his constit-
uents is in the political world "A
Court of Honor" though it is much
more. If Mr. Hepburn refuses the
challenge within reasonible time, and

Planning A
PerennialBorder
In a small garden perennials are.
grown in borders with the different
species, and 'varieties in mixture in
order to have a display of flowers
over as long a season -as possible,
says Miss Isabella Freston, Division
of Horticulture, Central Experimental
Farm, Ottawa.. The position of the
border depends on the available space
but as a general rule?it should - be
along the' boundary of the garden or
on each side of a walk.- A heavily
shaded place or ground full of the
roots of trees or shrubs, is not suit-
able as the roots take up the food'
and moisture from the soil. Still an-
other 'position to be avoided fe one
where the water lies in spring. Good
drainage is necessary for most plants.
Any good garden soil Will grow
perennials, but, as the border will be
a permanent thing, thorough prepara-
tion of the soil is advisable. This is
done by trenching in the following
manner. Mark off a strip across the
bed, about one and one-half feet wide,
dig out the soil about the same depth
and remove this soil to the far end
of the bed. Break up the soil at the
bottom of the trench and then put in
a thick layer of well rotted manure.
ktark off the next strip of ground and
fill up the trench with the soil. Con-
tinue this process until the end of
the bed is reached when the soil that
was removed from the first trench is
used to fill up the last one. If mane..
ure is not available then leaf mould.
or some other form of 'humus should
be used. The surface should be left
rough so that the frost can penetrate
aa deeply as possible into the soil. If
the ,trenching is done in fall and the
bed left over winter it should be In
good condition for planting in spring.
If no maure was used a complete
chemical fertilizer should be scatter-
ed over the soil before it is dug over.
If the place where the bad has to
go is covered with grass the sods
should be taken off and placed in the
bottom of the trench grass side down.
These Will decay 'and Isupply the
humus that is needed. If the natural
soil is very heavy clay- sand or coal
ashes will help to lighten it and make
it easier "to work. As soon as the
ground is dry enough in spring it
should be dug over and raked level
ready for planting, which can be
started in April or 14ay according to
the, district. 11' it Is desired to plant
the border in fall then it should be
prepared in Augpst or a Month be-
fore 'planting time. The size of the
bed will depend On the size of the
garden. • Six to eight feet is a suit-
able Width for a small border of mix-
ed plants.•
As a general rule the tallest grow -
1n plants are planted at the back of
the border, the medium tall in the
centre and the dwarf in front. To
• prevent a stiff appearance some of
the tall plants are planted towards
the centre and medium sized Mies

• 'Busy Grading Cucumbers
Tons of cucumbers are being grad-
ed at Clinton for an Ontario canning
and pickling company. Upwards of 100
acres were planted to cucumbers in
this vicinity and the crop is now be-
ing harvested. Some of the farmers,
have five or more acres each planted
and say they are receiving satisfac-
tory returns from their land, and la-
bor. The grading mill at the north'
section of Albert Street is sorting
many tons of cucumbers daily. This

FARM IMPLEMENTS
The name of agricultural iinple-
menta maivulactured in Canada is
legion. There ,are many 'kinds of
ploughs, including thorse and tractor
mould board, single furrow and two
or more furrow walkhig, single fur-
row sulky, two furrow or larger gafi'g,
horse and tractor -drawn discs of all
types, breakers and others. Other
tillage implements made in Canada
are corn and other "cultivators, spike -
tooth, spring -tooth, and disc harrows,
harrow parts' and attachments, horse-
drawn hoes, land, rollers, packers and
soil, pulverizers, one-way discs, har-
row ploughs, tiller combines, serif. -
tiers and weeders.
Of planting and tharvesting ma-
chines, there are fertilizer sowers,
press and wheel seed drills, corn
planters, grain binders horse and
tractor drawn, corn and cotton, bind-
ers, threshers and - reaper -thresher
combines, thresher parts, pickups,,
harvester stalkers, swathers and push
harvesters, while fo'r haying the im-
plements are abundant. These in-
clude hay loaders, dump, side, com-
bination side rakes and tedders, horse
and tractor -drawn mowers, hay car-
riers,, hay forks, hay tedders and
pressers.
However, that is only part. of the'
story, for there are fanning mills and
grain cleaners, 'grain grinders, ham-
mer mills, bare and stable equipment,
corn shelters, cream . separators, en-
silage and straw and stalk cutters, ev-
eners, manure spreaders, potato dig-
gers, pulpers and elicers, eleighs,
hanid and power sprays, wagons, wa-
gon boxes, gear, wheelbarrows and
many ether implements used on the
farm.

Far frombeing elemental and
spontaneous, guerrilla warfare is the
work of small but organized groups
operating at the rear of the enemy.
They are required to attack the foe
continuously, according to the plans
of a General staff that uses the
guerrilla as an auxiliary to large scale
operations of the regular army units.
Regardless of the outcofne of the
present Nazi drives towards Lenin-
grad, Moscow and Kiev, the final re-
sult of the Nazi -'Soviet war may be
decided in great part by the struggle
behind enemy lines of countless de-
isans who are already engaged in
bitter guerrilla warfare.
The Soviet High Command recent-
ly issued a special decalogue for guer-
rilla fighters.
1. In combat, watch for your cam -
the ?tie* at all spatsif yO4,wt
remain' fTee. '
Russian territory, already pagatile
by the Germans, offers an ,exemllatit,
terrai for guerrilla Warfare- The vnnt
Pripet marshes, the weeded territories
ois eat eaP• Palau& Latvia and
of the lower Dniester and Ore Danube
make it possible for even large bodies
of men to hide out M daylight hours,
emerging at night to attack the
enemy in every conceivable way. -
The organization of guerrilla troops
is relatively simple. When the regular
army Is forced to retreat freer any
given area, it leaves behind a numb-
er of hey men, preferably men who
are natives of the region in which -
they thave been fighting. To these
men are entrusted caches of arms
and ammunition. The Communist
Party cell and leaders of the local
Soviet determine .the work to be un -
the guerrilla troops which generally
rade. He will watch for you.
2. Do not bother about the wounded,
during action. Watch the enemy. The
wounded will be adequately attended
to after the battle.
3. The sooner you destroy the en-
emy, the less danger there will be
of him destroying yeu.
4. If you attack the 'enemy once
and he does not succumb, try again, i
and keep trying. The 4riemy is a hum-
an being; be will eventually give in.
5. If you cannot destroy the enemy
by ordinary means, ' think of other
ways. You ale bound to succeed soon-
er
or later.
•6. Retire if necessary, let the en-
emy adrvance, but stay in the rear
and harass him until yo -u have res-
troyed him.
• 7. If the enemy is superior, retire
but destroy everything as you retreat.
Do not give the enemy the use of our
food, shelters, water, etc.
8. If your enemy has superior forces
as well as armament, use your own
inguenuity to make up for this short-
coming. Make the enemy pay for ev-
ery inch of 'ground.
