On the other' hand, ,::•Jinziy, didn't have the many control either. With so many easily ap- lied chemical mixtures on the market, there is little if • any ex- cuse or, having our flowers and vegetables damaged let alone ruin- ed. •It is no lohger necessary to prepare various concoctions. All that one has to do is to go to le nearest peed• store, tell them our troubles and get some handy pre- paration which is simply dusted or sprayed on.. For every bug or die ease there is a specific cure or 'con- trol. The main thing is to start control measures just as soon as the first injury appears. Treat- ment is not expensive." One other point.. A healthy, clean and growing garden is the best insurance against injury... Well spaced,. well cultivated plants are far less susceptible to trouble than neglected Plots overrun with weeds. .Prompt clean -tip measures, after tharvest or ; blqeming, and in the Spring and Fall will also help greatly, Many bugs and , disease live over in the ground, or in weeds along the edge of the garden. Cleaning these up regularly will help substanti,Ily in keeping a garden healthy' No Hurry At the risk of repetition it should be stressed that there is no neces- sity for rushing gardening opera- tions. Far more plants are injur- ed or lost through too hurried and early planting than in taking things slowly. In virtually every area in Canada it is possible to go on planting right up to the first of July. Aside from very early bhings like grass seed, nursery stock, sweet peas and a few ethers, which .(Continued from Page 2) en after an outbreak has been stop- ped, to look in on the flock a little more frequently in order to prevent further outbreaks from getting started. * * Mixed Grazing Improves Pasture It is often said- that sheep ruin a pasture for cattle because of their close grazing ability. Often the,..faqlt lies with the poorness Of the pasture rather than the sheep, or that ton many sheep are grazed are all epecially mentioned in any • od. seed catalogue, there is lit- tle to be gained from rushing the season. As a matter of fact here is not a great deal of growth until both the weather and soil are real- ly warm. This means at least May in most parts of Canada, though of course in the warmer parts of British Colurabia. Southern Ontario and the lower tip of Nova Scotia it is usually possible to beat that schedule tby perhaps a week Ev- en, in these areas, however, there is lots of opportunity for gardening in May and June. One very common mistake of the beginner is to plant all seed on a single afternoon and jut as soon .as the first finedays start. This is risky and fciolish. It is risky because a later sharp frost may ruin all tender. growth. It is fool- ish because if it escapes frost all the flowers will come out early or the vegetables will all be ready at the sanie time. With the latter es- pecially it is advisable to spread sowings, so that the harvest may be spread out also. Experienced. gardeners melte a regular practice' of planting such things as carrots, beets, 'lettuce, beans, spinach, rad- ish,'etc., at least three times, about two to three weeks apart. To fur- ther spread the harvest, they will also use early, medium and late varieties. In Canada as in Europe, there is no good reason why the vegetable garden should not yield continually from early Summer un- til late Fall. And. the same goes for most 'annual 110WeM, too. • in proportion to the number of cat- tle. Pasture areas improved by re- seeding and fertilizing can be kept in good condition and better, re- turns secured from them by graz- ing with mixed sheep and cattle than by sheep or cattle alone, judg- ing by the average of seven years' results at the Central Experimen- tal Farm in Ottawa. This seven - year experiment showed that avasture treated with 10 tone of manure per ,acre every 'four years, and grazed with both sheep and cattle, had a carrying capacity 23 per cent greater than an adjoining field given a similar application of manure but grazed with sheep alone. Compared with another adjoining field of perman- ent pasture, receiving no manure and grazed by sheep alone, the in- crease was 50 per 'cent. On a. fourth adjacent field, not manured but fertilized with 1.00 pounds of sulphate of ammonia per acre each year. plus. 300 pounds of superphosphate and 75 pounds of muriate of potash applied every 'four, year's, mixed grazing gave an increase of 43 per cent over the matured field grazed with sheep alone; 6.6 per cent over a similarly fertilized field, grazed with steets alone, and 74 dper cent ,more than the untreated field. , Each of these fields consisted of four acres. In terms of actual meat produced, the untreated held showed 159 pounds average yearly gain in weight by the sheep grazed The manured field grazed by sheep alone produced a gain of 192 pounds. The manured field grazed by sheep and cattle pro- duced a gain of 126 poUnds .for the sheep. and 145 pounds for the steers. The fertilized field produc- ed a gain of 152 pounds for the sheep and 165 pounds for the steers A field given the same fer- tilizer treatment and greed by steers alone produced a gain of 248 potinds,for the steers, still below either 'of the mixed -grazed fields In total meat production. All gains are based on 150 days of grazing. P, E. Sylvestre and S. B. Wil- liams, of the Animal Husbandry Division at the Farm, state: !'Graz- ing with cattle and sheep resulted in a definite increase over grazing with sheep alone. This was not only due to the greater number of stock carried on that pasture but ',also to the higher daily gains of ;to ' the lambs in the mixed - grazed fields.

Most Canadian seed catalogues these separ- ately and they are decidedly worth noting 'by those who wish to add variety and interest to their gar dening. In this category this year is the brand new Royal Carpet Alyssum. a blue or purple in this Usually white little edging flower. There is also a new calendula. sev- eral new zinnias, some of giant size and a new and more brilliantly col- ored marigold, a lavender salvia and several others. A few of these will certainly add variety to any flower garden and will impress the neighbors, too. Among the vegetablesthere are many improvements. That is, earlier corn, tenderer beans, high- er yielding peas, and finer, crisper carrots. To those who are unfam- iliar with the recent developmeht of vegetables, the improvement in quality, hardiness and earliness in the lase decade is simply Unbeliev- able.

To look eeftee a piece of soil all cluttered up -111 fruit trees, grapevines, rows of asparagus, rhubarb, cur - for yearg, is like trying to paint a room without taking out the furni- ture or pictures. Even In the flower gardens, it will make things easier where annuals and peren- nials are kept fairly well apart. When the space 'is free one can. cultivate or dig thoroughly' in fall or spring and also in the vegetable garden particularly sow special green manure drops like oats, fall rye or clover which' is later dug under and thus enriches the soil. Usually with a little planning. we can place the permanent things, at one side of the vege- table garden, or along an end or corner.
