Useful Hints on Care of House Plants
In the care of house plants in the
winter time, the chief points to
consider are atmosphere, heat, drain-
age, drafts and the varying effects of
sunlight on the different plants. A
dry atmosphere is to be avoided
because it not only stunts the plants
but helps to ,increase certain insect
pests, such as red spider and thrips.
Moisture in the air around the plants
may be increased by standing the
pots in shallow trays filled with pelb-
bles,gravel, or moss and keeping
them moist. ° Normal moisture,, is al-
so dependent on good drainage. This
can best be arranged by using soil
in the pot that will allow both air
and water to pass through easily. A
mixture of two parts good garden

Baking
loam soil, )ane part rotted` manure and
one part sand will generally fulfil the
soil requirements of potted plants.
To prevent the surface of the soil
from •caking and thus prevent the
access of air, stir the surface gently
from time to time. Further drainage
may be obtained by placing pebbles
or small stones or broken parts of
an old pot at the bottom of the pot,
so as to kelp draw off excess water.
The placing of the plants bo their
best advantage calls ..for some con-
sideration. All plants will not flour-
ish anywhere, and care' should be
taken to put the plant where it will
not stand in a draught. Concerning
sunlight, different plants apparently
have different preferences. For ex-
ample, ferns should not be placed in
direct sunlight but -where there is an
abundance of light all round. On the
other hand, flowering plants 'as a rule
require all the sunlight theycan get,
particularly in winter time. Foliage
plants can thrive • all right in dim
light but in winter time they should
be placed in direct sunlight.,
However, the great secret of hav-
ing fresh -looking plants in the home
in winter is to avoid the over -heating
of rooms. It is a good plan to com-
mence the winter care of the plants.
as soon as the heat is turned on in
the fall: More house plants have
been killed by heat than by cold.
Plants should never lad placed too
near radiators._ The ideal tempera-
ture for house plants is about 65 de-
grees, or better still from 60 to 65
degrees F., three degrees less than
the recommended house temperature
from the health point of view. If
one desires to have the plants in the
living rooms, the 'best thing to do is
to keep the rooms as cool as possible
consistent with personal comfort.
Many, or large plants, should not be
kept in bedrooms, particularly at
night, or for preference none at all
in winter when all the windows are
closed.

Por those who, any day now, will
be bringing in beets from the garden
to store for winter use, here are a
few reminders. Beets keep best at a
temperature between 33 degrees F.
ud 38 degrees F. To keep them
crisp in storage, evaporation, should
be precented, ep a covering of, sand
is called for. Twisting, rather than
cutting the tops off reduces bleeding
and this. helps not only to preserve
the color but also to prevent decay.

HE trail has been a long dark Way.
At times it seethed we might got see the day;
But now at last the rising sunis ours
And with it comes new challenge to our powers.
Was war naught but a game to win by score
/And, having won, to cheer, and strive no more?
If that be all for which our men have died
Then we have lied.
O Canada, most favoured of the lands,
Review whereon our right to victory stands;
Our vow to free and succour those oppressed—
Provide for those who fought and are distressed,
Who risked without reserve all they could give
To break our foes that we might freely live.
If we now stop to haggle at the cost
Then we'll have lost.
If we play square with those who fought our fight,
And work with them to shape our world aright;
Postpone our buying things we little need—
Prevent inflation growing through our greed;
Co-operate in peace as well as war
By loaning to our cause a little more .. .
If we keep faith until the job is done
Then we'll have won.
