it is really amazing the number
of people who seem to think that
a lawn will look after itself, that it
its not necessary to feed grass, or
help it fight weeds. Not even a
they field will thrive without some
care and for a really good lawn,
soft and thick like a tilrkish rug,
-0.he same attention must be given
as with a flower bed or a prize
patch of vegetables.
Good seed is of vital importance.

as putting on bowling greens, mix-
tures of several fine grasses are
used. Sbme of these grasses come
quickly, some do best late in the
season, some have richer color and
so on. These are blended together
to produce uniformity of texture
and color throughout the season
and for various regions of Canada.
Seeding should be done, early, be-
fore the hot weather, or after it in
the fall.
Before sowing, of course, the_
ground must be made level and
fine. If possible, it is best to cul-
tivate several times at intervals of
a week or 10 days so that any fill-
ed in portions of the ground will
get a chance to settle. This pre -
seeding cultivation will also encour-
age any weeds to sprout and the
more of these destroyed before the
grass goes in the easier the care
afterwards. Grass seed prefers, a
fine rich, well -drained, soil. Sowing
is best done on a day without wind

In a month to six weeks the new
lawn Is usually ready for its first
mowing. This should be done with
a sharp machine which will cut
clean and not pull out the tender
grass. An annual application of
commercial fertilizer, rich in nitro-
gen, will usually keep a Lawn
healthy and able to crowd out most
weeds. The rest can be removed.
with a spudder or by spraying with
one of the chemical weed killers
applied carefully according to di-
rections.
To build and maintain a good
lawn requires some care, but it is
mere than worth any effort and
the moderate expense. Without a
centre -piece of fine lawn as fore-
ground for shrubbery, ,flower gar
dens, trees, and the home itself,
no garden layout, no matter how
costly, will be a real success.
Spread It Out
It is foolish and risky to plant
all the garden on a single after-
noon
fternoon and just as soon as the first
warm weather comes. It is risky
because a late frost may ruin all
tender growth. It is foolish be-
cause it it escapes . frost, all the
flowers will conte out early or all
the vegetables will be ready at the
same time.
With the vegetables especially,
it is advisable to spread sowings,
so that the harvest may be spread
out also. •Experienced; gardeners
stake a regular practice of plant-
ing such things as carrots, beets,
lettuce, beans, spinach, radish, etc.,
at least three times, about two to
three weeks apart. To further
4spread the harvest, they will also
use early, medium and late varie-
ties. There is no good reason why
the vegetable garden should not
yield continually from early sum-
mer until late fail. And the same
goes for most annual flowers, too

The Ontario Legislature ...
(By Thomas Pryde, M.P.P.)
Before this article appears in the
press, the fourth Session of the
24th Legislature will be prorogued.
The current session has been of
normal length, about eight weeks,
and a total of 141 Bills have Ibeert
dealt with. A great many of these
Bilis were amendments to existing
legislation which, experience ha.s
Proved were not workable in prac-
tice, or new conditions had arisen
hi- the meantime. Some of these
amendments were of a trivial na-
ture and needed only a change in
the wording of the Act. However,
they are all required to go through
the same routine as a new Bill.
It should be mentioned that
when a measure is introduced into
the Legislature it is, known as a
Bill. It remains so until it has
gone through all the stages and re-
ceives Royal Assent. It then be-
comes an Act.
The second last section usually
states that the Bill will come into
force the day it receives Royal As-
sent, or on proclamation by the
Lieutenant -Governor in Council.
The latter indicates that regula-
tions have to be drawn to properly
administer the Act and until that
is done it would not. be possible to
enforce it. In this case a Procla-
mation Is issued on the authority
of the Cabinet. and the matter is
then the law of the Province.
This Session has been notable
for the unusual amount of commit-
tee work. Every morning, every
day of the present. session. Com-
mittees have met and studied a
variety of subjects. It-ys'safe to
say that the average member has
received more information about
the working of the different branch-
es of the government than ever be-
fore.
The estimates of expenditures of
every department for the current
year are most important. Each
Minister introduces his estimates
by a lengthy report on the work
of his Departm..ent, and this is fol-
lowed by a detailed check of each
item- All members are free to ask
questions on every item, and., of
course, the Opposition has this op-
portunity to question the Minister
regarding how the money to be
approved will be spent. This has
occupied the time of the House for
more than a week and will continue
until about the last day.
Many temporary emlployeea are
engaged for work in connection
with the Session. There are prob-
ably 34) in all. They act'as attend-
ants
ttendants in the galleries and cloak-
room's and perform a variety of
duties only neceslary while the
House is in session.
These are mostly elderly men
who have retired from Their busi-
ness or calling and are still able to
perform light duties. There are al-
so 11 page boys, who are briptht stu-
dents at school and are In Grades
6, 7 or 8. Their duty is to carry
messages and get papers and books
required by the Members.
It should be pointed out, none
but Members of the Legislature and
Certain officials are permitted on
the floor of the house, For this
reason, the `page boys run all the
errands which may be required.,
.They are usually smart, intelli-
gent and active little tads and are
dressed in Oxford suits, with white
collars and black ties. A super-
visor is in charge and sees that
they are always Well groomed and
attentive to their duties. • During
the session they receive special in-
struction on Saturdays and at oth-
er times, but now they return to
their studies at school.
During the Session many groups
of school children visit the build-
ings and sit in the gallery to lis-
ten to the prg
oceedin s. Other vis-
iting groups are on hand from day
to day and it is customary- for the
attendant or ,guide to inform the
Members from the constituency to
which they belong. so that he will
have an opportunity to meet them.
As our County is quite some dis-•
tance from Toronto. more of our
people visit Toronto later in the
year when the weather is more fav-
orable. It is always i privilege for
a Member to he informed nhen a
group intends to visit the buildings.
He can then make arrangements
for a guide. etc., well in advance.
Your Member is alway t the ser-
vice of his constitute[ t in this re-
spect and sincerely hopes that
school groups and Young People's
will visit the Parliament Buildings
and learn more of how our laws
are made and how Government
functions.
The final act of a Session is
when the Lieutenant -Governor en-
ters the Chamber as the representa-
tive of Her Majesty the Queen and
given Royal Ascent. to the Bills
which have been passed and which
are rend ,hy the Clerk of the House.
When 1 commenced this series of
letters it was my thought that your
Member should try to keep his con-
stituents informed of at least part
of what is taking place in the Leg-
islature. Obviously, many other
subjects have been dealt with up-
on which I could comment, but I
also have in mind that our news-
papers do not have unlimited space.
My sincere thanks is hereby ex-
tended to the Editor for the court-
esy extended in publishing these
rather unrelated articles, and I do
hope they hay have been of some
interest to the readers.

Mr. and Mrs. John Campbell and
Johnny moved recently from the
apartment which they have oc-
cupied atthe home place, to the
farm farther south on the Bronson
Lone, which they purchased about
a year ago. Thus, the property has
come into the possession of the
great-grandson of the man who
pioneered it.
Robert Delgaty, a Scottish immi-
grant, settled on Lot 15 East, Bron-
son Line, about 100 years ago. In
1862 he built the fine brick resi-
dence which still stands today. Af-
ter his death„it came into the pos-
session of his son, James Delgaty
who in turn sold it to Sem Hohner.
Clarence Hohner acquired the pro-
perty from his father and it was
owned for a short time by Roy
Scotchaner before John Campbell
bought it.
