Making Most of Space
Where vegetable garden space is
limited it is best to stick to smaller
and heavy -cropping things like beets,.
carrots, spinach, beans, etc, All of
these can be grown, if necessary, in
rows no more than 12 inches apart,
and a 10 -foot row will supply many
delicious meals. Slightly more room
between the rows will make cultiva-
tion easier and also give a better
chance to keep down weeds.
Space can be saved with larger
growing vegetables by following a few
tricks of the experienced gardeners.
Take tomatoes, for example. If .left
alone to grow the natural way these

PLAN
To Make Ontario Stronger and a
Better Place to Live
•
Here is a Far -Sighted Liberal Program that can be put into action
immediately after the coming election . .. A program designed •
on broad thinking lines, for the betterment of all :
WELFARE
(a) Increase old age pension benefits from
$30.00 to $40.00 per month.
(b) Reduce age limit for pensions to 65,
with Federal co-operation.
Grant necessary aid to hospitals with-
out imposing Provincial amusement
tax.
(c)
2. TAXATION
Eliminate 3c gasoline tax imposed by Drew,
no re -imposition of amusement tax. No
Provincial income tax.
3.
LABOUR
(a) Increase workmen's compensation bene-
fits to 75 per cent and shorten waiting
period from 7 days to 3 days.
(b) Compulsory two weeks' vacation with
pay for industrial workers after two
years' employment.
(c) Assist in formation of National Labour
Code.
4. 'AGRICULTURE
Introduce the Oliver Plan for improvement
of rural living:
(a) Underwrite farmers 30 years of age
and under up to and including 80 per
cent of the amount necessary to estab-
lish them on a self-sustaining basis.
(b) Enlarge and extend the facilities of the
Agricultural Colleges to a point where
they become of more practical value to
the farming communities of Ontario,
and to provide facilities for research
necessary to bring to Huron farmers
the latest developments in agricultural
science.
Establish means whereby all farmers
may have available facilities for soil
testing and conservation, to make pos-
sible increased production from their
existing farms.
(c)
5. LIQUOR. POLICY
(a) Devote portion of Provincial liquor rev-
enues to educational campaign against
improper use of 'alcohol.
(b) Re -affirm our stand for local option ,in
all municipalities and strictly enforce
. all existing liquor laws.
6. HOUSING
Encourage housing by assuming municipal
taxes for five years, in the case of Veterans,
and four years in the case of civilians, on all
homes costing $8,000.00 or less built within
next two years.
7. HYDRO
(a) Take Hydro out 'of politics.
(b) Hydro municipalities to name one of
three commissioners.
(c) Speed Hydro development to avoid ne-
• cessity for Drew -imposed Hydro ration-
ing.
(d) Remove present restriction of two con-
sumers to a mile.
8. HIGHWAYS
The Liberal Party is determined that first
consideration will be given to the proper
maintenance and, if necessary, replacement,
of existing highways, rather than the con-
structio:'- of super four -lane highways, de-
signed primarily as subsidies to the metro-
politan centres in the Province, such as To-
ronto. This will be done without the con-
tinued imposition of an unnecessary 3c gaso-
line tax.
9. FEDERAL CO-OPERATION
Will negotiate agreement with Federal Gov-
ernment to avoid duplicate taxation and to
make available to Ontario residents the
Health Insurance and Social Security pro-
gramme of the Liberal Government at
Ottawa. This means greater social secur-
ity for the common man.
10. VETERANS' PREFERENCE
Will give preference'to Veterans of the two
world wars in the Civil Service and other
fields.

plants will need a full 24 inches at
least each way and, 'better still, 30
inches or a yard, However, if they
are staked, they can be grown about
15 to 18 inches apart and better,
earlier and cleaner fruit will be pro-
duced. Stakes should be about six
feet long and firmly driven at least a
foot in the soi close to the plant.
All side 'shoots are • nipped off and
growth confined to a single shoot.
Care must be 'taken not to pinch off
flowers which will come at every joint.
in the main` stem- The latter should
be tied loosely to the stake with soft
twine or raffia about every foot. •
Melons, squash and other climbing
or trailing vegetables, or perhaps we
should say fruits, will take up less
valuable space if planted around the
outside of the main garden, They can
trail over ,paths or even fences. Most
of these things, however, require as
much sun as possible, as well as good,
rich, open soil. Incidentally, around
the outside of the garden and espec-
ially the• north and west side, is the
place for the fruit trees. Here they
are out of the way and they will not
shade the garden.
Spread Out Annual Flowers
With bedding plants like petunias,
asters, cosmos, marigolds, etc., most
amateurs make the same mistake as
they make with shrubs and trees -
they plant them too close together.
This is not only expensive but it re-
sults in less bloom and poor, spindly-
growth.
pindlygrowth.
It is really surprising how much
space a well -grown petunia, nastur-
tium or any other of these plants will
cover. Instead of putting the larger
sorts six or eight inches apart, trLe
e•xperts•advocate a foot or even tvfo.
This will allow easier cultivation
which, of. course, is vital, and encour-
age ' the plant to' spread and grow
sturdily. In a few weeks these an-
nuals will have occupied all the space
between. For very long bed's such as
those along driveways. petunias, zin-
nias, cosmos, big marigolds, etc., are
often planted in wavy rows far en-
ough apart to permit tractor cultiva-
tion for the first week or two; By
mid-July they will be making a won-
derful show:
Keep Planting Vegetables
Too much stress cannot be laid an
continuous planting- of the standard
vegetables like lettuce, radish, beans,
carrots, beets, corn, etc. These taste
much better when they just begin to
reach proper maturity. • Beans, let-
tuce, corn and such things begin to
get tough if left too long. In most
parts of 'Canada it is quite possible to
keep planting many vegetables right
up to mid-July.
Transplanting
Boxes of bedding plants and nurs-
ery stock should be kept moist and
newly set out plants watered frequent-
ly for the first. week. Setting out, if
Possible, should be done in the eve-
nings or on a cloudy dray. A little
protection from the hot soil for a day
or two will help -

With the budget debate showing
little fire in the House of Commons,
or in political circles generally, in-
tense interest centres on the three
federal •by-elections and three pro-
vincial elections in pi -ogress. Before
this column appears the result in one
federal by -election -Yale, B.C.-will
be known.
In the 1945 general election the
Progressive Conservative Patty with
9,625 votes, won Yale with a substan-
tial majority- The C.C.F. Party came
second with 7,713, and the Liberal
Party third with 4,705. The result in
Yale will be taken as some indication
of the political trend in Canada. The
by-elections in Ontario constituency
in the Province of Ontario, and in
Vancouver Centre, B.C.. come on June
8. The Ontario provincial election is
called on the King's Birthday, June 7
-.obviously to affect the vote in the
federal by-elections.
Ontario
:1 perusal of editorial comment
across Canada shows that interest is
strong In the Ontario Provincial elec-
tion because of a general reeling that
a substantial victory for the Drew
Government would mean guarantee
that. Hon, George L1rew would be,
moved by the Progressive Conserva-
tive Party into its federal leadership
replacing John Bracken.
This victory which was taken for
granted two weeks ago is now pues-
tioned strongly in all but the most
rabid partisan editors. There is a
great deal of evidence that rural On-
tario is rallying behind. Farquhar

versities.
New Brunewick and Saskatchewan
Cross - country editorial comment
accepts, as a foregone conclusion, a
heavy, Liberal victory in New, Bruns-
wick. Now holding 24 seats in a
house of 36, it is freely predicted
that they will win 30 seats in the
next provincial parliament which will
have 40 members.
Keen interest is shown in the Sas-
katchewan campaign where the elec-
tion is on June 24. This will be the
first test of Socialist government in
Canada and everywhere the political-
ly minded want to know whether this
imported ideology is waxing or wan-
ing in our free democracy. Both the
Liberal and C.C.F. Parties are well
organized and have •aggressive dyna-
mic leaders. The Conservatives, who
have not elected a provincial mem-
ber since 19:9 and the Social Credi-
tors, who have never elected a mem-
ber in Saskatchewan, are in the field
in a number of constituencies. Ili the
three largest cities and in a few rural
constituencies there is a measure of
co-operation between Liberals and
Conservatives to overthrow Social-
ism. •
• Saskatchewan has a long history of
'Liberal governments with two de-
feats. In 1924 the Progressive Con-
servatives won and lasted one term,
On seeking re-election on their re-
cord they failed to elect a single sup-
porter and have not elected one since.
The C.C.F. were elected in 1944 and
face their first test on a record.
Clothes Moths
In most hones the annual onslaught
against the clothes moths will .have
been done along with the spring
cleaning. Winter garments and sur-
plus bedding will have been thorough
ly .brushed and packed away with
naphthalene flakes or paradichloro-
benzene crystals. and c,othes cup-
boards treated with a suitable spray
But only too often one o1' the worst
breeding places of moths is overlook,
ed. If there is a hot air
there are probably whole colonies el
moths ready to feed on the lint and
dust which accumulate§ in the c -col
air pipes. The gratings are easily re-
moved and a vacuum cleaner with a
suction attachment will remove the
lint and dust easily, otherwise, a long
handled broom or brush will serve.
The inside of the pipe should then be
sprayed 'as far down and as thorough-
ly as possible. • •
Actually the war against moths is
seldom won by only a spring cam-
paign; it should be kept up through-
out the summer. Clothes, chair cov-
ers, upholstery and bedding will be
subject to attack unless the moths
still at large are killed. There is no
real safety for any woollen garments
or articles until the last moth has
been destroyed or. driven from the
home.
