This .means, in- stead of single plants or straight ow weset out a groupof one rows, variety and possibly color. Where space is limited this will mean on.- ly two or three asters, zinnias, marigolds, balsam, and so on, in one clump or group, then some- thing else, and so on until the whole bed is planted. Generally the taller things go at the back, the medium in the centre, and the lit- tle edging things like lobelia, alys- sum, dwarf zinnias, marigolds and so on, in the front. But it is well not to be too particular. Here and there we bring some of the taller things forward. This all makes for informality and if we plan a little for continuous 'bloom, a variety of color. For the Large Garden Now in the larger garden where we have yards instead of feet to play with, we can carry this clump planting a step -farther and with most interesting and satisfactory results. Here we can have whole flower beds and borders of one sin- gle flower, or possibly two or three. More and more people are going in for this sort of thing. Of course, we will need a lot of plants but these can be purchased quite mod- erately by the flat rather than the basket, or we can start our own in a hot bed, or still more cheaply just sow the seed as soon as safe directly in the bed outdoors. This takes a little longer to get bloom. but it is really amazing what re- sults can be achieved over a great part of 'Canada. For big solid beds there is quite a variety from which to choose. Some of these new type zinnias make a wonderful show and they Buchanan Cleaners Mount Forest Successors to TONE CLEANERS We Pick Up and Deliver Monday and Thursday Phone 230 - Seaforth ANDY CALDER AGENT Ladies' and Gents' 2 -piece Suits, 61; Plain Dresses, $1; Plain Skirts, 60c; Gents' Trousers, 50c.

We can use small types along the front or in smaller beds and anything up to three feet for larger beds and farther back. One is advised to get packets of special varieties. The aster is another plant that lends itself to clump planting and here too the range in color and size is wide in the new varieties. And of course there is the petunia, a natural for solid beds and borders. These and others ranging all the way from the inch high alyssum to tall cleomes and cosmos are all suitable, either to plant in solid beds or to arrange together in big clumps. First Plantings Very conveniently most flowers and vegetables arrange themselves into three main planting groups so far as the Canadian climate is con- cerned. In the seed catalogue the usual description is hardy, semi - hardy and tender. The first of these can go in just as soon as the soil is ready. These things love the cool wet weather and thrive best and longest when planted early. In this class are the sweet peas, cosmos, alyssum and, other flowers which normally seed them- selves. In' the vegetables, lettuce, radish, spinach and garden peas are all hardy. All ,these will stand quite a bit of frost. The semi - hardy group will usually survive a touch of frost, but they don't like it and it will certainly set them back. These include beets, carrots, beans and corn in the vegetable line, and petunias, asters, balsam and so on among the flowers. 'Then there is the really tender group, the plants like cucumbers, melons, dahlias, geraniums and such, that will kill almost instantly if the mer- cury falls below 32 degrees. There is no use risking any of these out- doors before both the air and soil are really warm and all danger of frost is over. "That's the third time I've seen that civil servant at the buffet to- night." "Oh well, he's probably filling his form in triplicate." "Joe comes from a very poor family." "But I understand they'd put him through medical school." "Yes; that's why they became very poor." Pure wood fibre is cellulose.

"Give your women a chance at meetings," she said, "even if they have to use notes. Keep your meet- ings eetings interesting, and you will hold your members." "Women's Institutes were formed in the first place so that rural wo- men would have a chance .to learn." She asked that "money -making" not be put ,first, but rather educa- tional, ducetional, practical, cultural and social values first. r +. 28,. 1 Pupils of S.S.
