In the Garden T Little Co-operation Will Help Nature is pretty generous, and it is surprising how she will make things grow even if the soil is poor, the lo- cation not the best and the climate discouraging. But nature expects and appreciates a little co-operation. This means, first of all, that the proper seed or suitable nursery stock should be chosen. • There are certain things that will grow well in ,the united States or Great Britain, but that will not do well in Canada. And there are great degrees of hardiness and special likes in the things that e e can grow in Canada too. A little study of these special requirements' will pay the gar- dener rich dividends. Use Best Seed In seed, for instance, it is import- ant to use only those recommended for Canadian eonditinns, Those listed in any reputable Canadian seed cata- logue will be suitable because they have all been tested for Canadian conditions. The best seed costs only a few cents per packet. but without the best it does not make much dif- ference how well we prepare the soil or look after the resulting growth. But cultural directions should be fol- lowed. ' If there is still danger of frost, then only the very hardy types of vegetables and flowers should be sown. These are listed as hardy, e hardy ; . d tender in the ca.ta- 'cgue. Nothing is to be gained by rushing the season. With tender things like tomatoes, melons, squash, peppers. petunias, begonias, dahlias, gladiolus, etc., experts caution against planting until soil and air are warm. Guard Against Pests With certain things, ton, it ie ad- visable to treat the seed against rots and other diseases that niay be lurk - big in the soil. This is especially true of gladiolus and. potatoes and come other things that may be '8pehiallp Yer#i e>tt bUl of hire nt tieh en thu ax et PeAVI Rbr lilirpoae 'r'hesei protect fre0 +;lisease: and 01MOU ,age that iiu..i,~k grow: that _ aQ ngces4ax it w«3 are gab g. to gel; early, 1indenlaged blef n ,anti; tender: vegetables.

But it is amazing how easily. these' can be controlled if measures . are taken promptly.' The careful garden- er will be ready with sprays or dusts and get started with ,these before any damage gains headway. There is No Hurry There is plenty of time yet in any part of Canada to have a real garden. Practically all sorts of hardy flowers and vegetables can still be sown and they should continue to be sown at intervals of ten days to two weeks until well into summer. Spreading ottt the garden in this way makes the work easier and more pleasant, but it also spreads the harvest of blooms or vegetables aver weeks and months instead of days. In these times of high-priced, sea.rcevegetables there is a real dollars-and-centssaving in having a plentiful supply of vege- tables coming en right lintel': fall. A Lot For a Little In the town garden where space is at a premium the wise gardener will concentrate. on those space -saving vegetables • like beets, carrots, spin- ach, lettuce, onions, beans and simi- lar large -yielding things that can be grown in rows or from 12 to 15 inch- es apart. Tall or sprawny vegetables like corn, potatoes, peas, tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, etc., create a spe- cial problem. These require rows or hills at least 18 inches apart. 'Where the plot is restricted, most people will give up growing their own potatoes, and possibly some of the others. Peas, COM and lomat lesr; however, though they do eopupy a good deal of roosts, are so Mulch tag tier yvjien freshly picked from the garden at the door, that special•..ao - sideration is often given 'them. A good deal of space can be saved where the tomatoes are trimmed and staked, and the cucumbers and squash too, if grown around the edge of the plot and allowed to run•. over the paths, perhaps can be crowded in. The little acorn type of squash will yield a lot for the space occupied.

That is democracy. European countries would be glad to have the right to hold free elections. By-Elections--- The y-Electiens The people of each riding have a right to have a representative in the Legislature at each session. The Liberals could. have refrained from nominating a candidate last February, then there would have been no by-election. Scores of people in the riding can testify that Tom Pryde has been of service to them as their representative in the Legislature. Let him carry on the work. The Hydro Change -Over TOM PRYDE Progressive -Conservative Candidate from 25 to 60 cycle will not cost the domestic (home) consumer one cent. That is definite. After the change -over, motorized appliances will cost much less—up to 33 per cent.- The ent. The Amusement Tax The continuance of the amusement tax will enable the government to increase the maintenance grants to hospitals from $2,200,000 a year to $5,400,000 a year. The Gasoline Tax The continuance of the gasol ine tax will enable the government to give larger grants to the counties and municipalities so that we can have our county and muni- cipal roads kept in better shape both Summer and Winter. Then, again, why shouldn't the man who drives 10,000 miles pay more than the man who drives 2,000 miles? And why shouldn't the American tourist pay something toward the upkeep of our roads? The Embargo which prevents the shipment of cattle and certain other products to the United States is purely a Dominion Government affair—and the Provincial Government has nothing whatever to do with it The Airforce Voter If he'and his wife are living OFF the station he has the same voting privileges as the civilian.

RE-ELECT Tom PRYDE and keep the highway improvement up, help the hospitals provide services to the sick, advance . and improve the Hydro system, and keep. Ontario strong.
