VOL.2 NO.20 Brussels taxes to increase 6.2% Brussels taxbills will increase 6.2 per cent to cover the costs of all levels of government in 1986. The village budget itself, adopt- ed Thursday night by council, secs an increase of only 2.96 per cent in the mill rale for residential rate- payers (from 71.220 mills to 73.333). Commercial and Indus- trial ratepayers face an increase from 83.788 mills to 86.272 mills. The council used a surplus from last year of $17,962 to help offset the increase in local taxes. The big bite however comes in the allocation for the County of Huron which increases a whopping 15,43 per cent for residential ratepayers, Part of this increase is brought on by u larger than normal jump in the county levy due to renovations for Huronview and the new county museum and part comes because an error in setting the county levy last year meant council had to recover money this year that should have been collect- ed last year. The county levy will increase from 34,455 to 39.77 mills on residential and 40,535 to 46.788 for commercial ratepayers. Secondary school levy will in- crease from 59.466 to 59.788 mills on residential properties, an in• crease of only .5 per cent. The commercial rate will increase from 69.96 to 70.339. The elementary levy takes a 9,8 percent increase from 72.932 to 80.045 mills on residential proper- ties and 85,802 to 94.171 mills on commercial property. In its budget adopted Thursday night Brussels council calls for an increase in expenditures from $232,012 last year to 5283,140. Largest areas of growth include: • recreation and culture which includes an extra $10,000 for library repairs and 55,000 more for parks and recreation as part of the new Brussels, Morris and Grey recreation committee; • general government, where the biggest increase is an 58,000 increase in the cost of insurance and a$2,000cost in audit fees and a 52,000 increase in rental and maintenance of equipment; • protection to pcoplc and property where the firc budget calls for a 52,000 working reserve and 52,500 in costs in insulating the meeting room; • the cost of garbage collection and disposal will also increase $4,000 this year due to a new agreement with Morris township under which Brussels picks up a larger share of operating the waste disposal site the two municipalities share. The. renewed public interest in Brussels council business was in evidence as a number of spectators sat through the budget meeting, normally a fairly dry, figure -filled affair, • WEDNESDAY, MAY 14,•1986. iuN 40°CENTS The old Huron Produce birlldingon MalitStreetln Brussels Isgonenow but it had i memorable departure.

On April 17, 1946, members of the new Brussels Lion's club gathered at Melville Presbyterian Church for the club's charter night. As Bill Turnbull called the evening to order Monday night, about 200 people found their scats and enjoyed a steal of roast beef, stashed potatoes, peas and gravy, ending off with a slice of pie.

Council received the auditors statement for 1985 which showed a deficit of 518,375 due mostly to an overexpenditure on road costs of $20,539. The council, with an absent Reeve Aitchison, carried a motion to give n first, second and third rending to a by-law that will allow the West Wawanosh Township to enter into an Area Fire Protection Agreement with the Municipali- ties of Blyth, East Wawanosh, Hallett, McKillop and Morris to establish a joint fire brigade to provide protection for the six municipalities by the Blyth and District Volunteer Fire Depart- ment.

Permission was given. Mrs. Stella Tilbrook spoke brief- ly to council, expressing her gratefulness to those who rescued her husband from his burning trailer on April I. Evalena Webster Blyth's Citizen of the Year A hard-working volunteer who has given long years of service to many Blyth -area organizations has been named Citizen of the Year for the Blyth area by acommittee of local residents, Evalena Webster of Blyth was chosen by the committee for a wide range of community service activi- ties throughout the years. Mrs. Webster founded the Swinging Seniors in Blyth and through her active leadership was able to get New Horizon's grants which helped with renovations to the roof of Blyth Memorial Hall so it could eventually host the Blyth Festival. She also helped get grants for other area projects including the bowling green. Her name as been synonimous with the "country supper" pro- gram at the Blyth Festival. When the Festival wanted an opening night dinner for its second season in 1976, Mrs. Webster and her Blyth United Church caterers were called in. Later, when a tour operator asked for meals for a busload of people coming to a matinee performance at the Festi- val (there were no restaurants in , the village large enough to accom- modate the group at that time), Mrs. Webster and her group took on the job. That program swelled until today catering groups from Londesboro to Blucvale, Walton to Auburn provide Thursday matinee luncheons and Friday and Satur- day suppers. She has been a leader of many 4H homemaking clubs and helped many teenagers learn the art of sewing and altering clothes. She served two terms as presi- dent of the Huronview Ladies Auxiliary of which she was a memberformany years, She is still active in helping with bazaars, bake sales and transporting wheel chair residents and taking Blyth ladies to Huronview for activities there. Site served more than one term as president of the Blyth Women's Institute. As one of her several nominators noted: "Her kindness to all classes of Blyth's society tells it all." The Citizen of the Year award is decided by a panel of local residents from nominations sub- mitted by readers of The Citizen in Blyth and Brussels. Brussels repasses disputed motion A controversial motion allowing Brussels Lions Club to replace the old Brussels wading pool with a new wading pool was repassed by Brussels council Thursday night in open session. Council had originally passed the motion last Monday night during a comntitteeofthewhole session from which members of the public present were excluded. When the public was readmitted, no mention was made of the decision of council until the end of the meeting when a reporter asked if a motion had been passed. Deputy -clerk treasurer Ruth Sauve telephoned Ministry of Municipal Affairs officials in Lon- don on Tuesday to ask if the vote was legal because it had not been taken in public and was informed it was not. When council met Thursday night to consider the 1986 budget, the motion was repassed. PAGE 2. THE CITIZEN,WEDNESDAY, MAY 14, 1986.

Zimmerman went on to say that he hadn't been to one meeting where he met a Leo member that has become a Lion, and that if there • was such an occasion to happen in Brussels, to let him know. He stated that he was getting frustrated with clubs that complain of what is wrong with their club instead of talking about what's good about their club. Lion's clubs are organized so that members can fulfill the needs of their community. Brussels is awaiting for a pool to be built. At one point Zimmerman thought the pool was already in operation, but was soon corrected. Forty years ago their were 41 members in the Brussels Lion's Club and today there are 44.

Editorial An apology to Brussels taxpayers The Citizen ewes an apology to the taxpayers of Brussels for not having done its job properly in reporting the activities of the Brussels Village • council over the early months of the n - term of this council. Our erroor was in not giving the public a full report of the words and actions of councillors in so-called debates that degenerated into blue language and hard -fisted table smashing. There were a number of reasons for our failure to report these words and actions. First of all. we were bending over backwards to by fair to Councillors Nf alcolm Jacobs and Gordon Workman because they are men who are dedicated to doing their best for the comm unit:. i of Brussels and they take their responsibilities ' seriously. Knowing that some people are more skilled at expressing opinions and emotions than others. we overlooked the early antics of the two councillors. trying as much as possible to put across the gist of their arguments without the colourful adjectives. Being new to the community and realizing that these councillors had not hada reporter present to i record their every utterance for several years. also 1 led our reports to overlook these activities. Later. when emotions heated to the melting point. we%ere Only one solution to farm problems sensitise to not pouring gasoline on the flames already roaring. In ret:r spectwemade the wrong decisions and in doing so. we were unfair to the people of Brussels and even tothetwocouncillors inquestion. Unfair to the public because they deser. ed to know how their elected representatives beha•, ed. Unfair to the two councillors because. in letting them aw ay with their earls explosions. we gave false signals that We would overlook any action no matter how outrageous. short of phy sisal assault. %'hen w e did report a small fraction of the blue language being used. the councillors felt we had changed the rules mid -way. and charged we •.sere being unfair. What has become clear is :hat Councillors Workman and Jacobs seem to have an unclear understanding that demo•rac; is a two•w ay street, that councillors can'tjust sit in council and fire accusations without expecting the public to be able to react. The two could have written the book "Winning Through Intimidation" with their outbursts in the council chambers and their actions outside. Mr. Workman •s threat to sue the writer of a letter to the editor oyer words she used which would be judged mild in most political circumstances. shows that There is a great deal of cc+oc-ern b&2 eipress.ed these da:.s over the precious resp crc_ of farmland. Agriculture Minister Jack Riddell has opened the subject of protecting farmland from urban encroachment in his Foodland Guidelines study. There is gr r. -iz2 concern also for the loss of farmland in another way: through erosion that washes or blows irreplaceable topsoil away . The attention is all very commendable. But many years ago i heard a farmer turned real estate broker say the way to protect farmland from being turned into golf courses is to make sure there is more profit to be made from farming those acres than there is from playing golf on them. Farmers are justified in asking why the government and agricultural professionals are so worried about saving farmland when we already grow more food than we can find markets for. In many ways. government action to prevent urban encroachment on farmland simply creates a rural ghetto in which a farmer can't make a living on his land but doesn't have the ability to sell it for some purpose, whether golf -course or vacation property. where he could make a profit. It seems professionals and legislators seem to be busy doing everything but attacking the real problem to all farm problems today: poor farm prices. When the U.S. is threatening countervailing duties on Canadian fish because of the "unfair subsidy" Canadian fishermen get with unemployment insurance. why is our federal government so quiet about the devestation the U.S. is causing in Canadian agriculture with its multi -billion dollar Farm Bill? Why is Mr. Riddell busy talking about farmland protection when its farmers who are getting scarce? It's ironic that thousands of gallons of ink in newspapers and hours of precious airtime on radio and television are being devoted to the "what -ifs" of the extra billing dispute between government and doctors but the crisis in farming that's already here has become old news, and seldom mentioned by press or politicians. Give farmers a decent pricefor theirgoodsand you won't find many wanting toseveroffland for city people to build on. Make farming profitable and farmers will make sure they protect their topsoil because it is their future. Deal with the real issues and the other problems will look after themselves.

Mr. Jacobs has twice verbally attacked members nf'f he Citizen's staff and at last week's council meeting several times mumbled about the unfairness of criticism in the paper. Unhappy with the public reaction which reports of theircouncil discussionshave brought, and faced last week with a public gallery at the council meeting. the councillors moved into "committee of the whole" so they could carry on their "debate" in private. Committee of the whole is generally reserved for confidential dealings in matters of personnel. salary negotiations or land acquisition. Given the circumstances. The Citizen hereby sets the ground rules for future coverage of this, and for that matter all councils. Councillors in their debates and actions should behave as if the council chamber contained every one of the citizens of the municipality. even if there are just five spectators there or if there are none at all.

TUESDAY: Ward Black was con. plaining this morning about how the opposition parties won't let that nice man Sinclair Stevens alone. "He obeyed the rules about conflict of interest." Ward says, "so what his wife does behind his back shouldn't really matter. After all the NDP is always saying how women should be independent of their husbands." "Whatl'dliketoknow."said Billie Bean, "is where 1 can get somebody to give mea loan like Mrs. Stevens got. 1 went to the bank and they wouldn't even given mea loan fora new car, never mind at interest free." Hank Stokes says they should make Mrs. Stevens the new agriculture ministerifshecan get a 52.6 million interest free loan for a company that's in trouble, maybe she could solve the whole farm crisis. "I mean if l could get a 52.6 million interest free loan, 1 could invest it and with the interest, say 5250.000 or so. 1 just might break even on the farm this year." WEDNESDAY: Billie Bean was talking this morning about the fuss that's going on down in Washing. ton about Michael Deaver who used to work for President Reagan and then went out and started his own lobbying company and the Canadian government hired hint. Seems the U.S. politicians are all upset because they think Canada has been able to buy influence by hiring Mr. Deaver. After all, they says, Mr. Reagan did agree for the first time that acid rain is a problem. Billie says he thinks he'll become a consultant. Maybe peo. ple will pay hint 5100,000 to convince some equally backward person that the world is round, he says. Tim O'Gradysaysit's surprising the whole thing is causing such a fuss in the U.S. If there are investigations anywhere, he says. it should be in Canada to sec why we paid anybody 5100,000 to get so little in return.

Kcn Bauntan's words of welcome to the 23 students, their families and friends lent confi- dence and a relaxed atmosphere to this happy occasion, When thcaudiencc read on their programs versatile titles of 25 piano selections which they were about to hear, these titles alone were enough to tickle their sense -- titles like Haircut, March of the Terrible Trolls, Enchantment, Popcorn, Soft Descends the Snow. And when the audience listened to the expression befitting the titles that the 23 piano soloists put into their numbers, the audience's senses were further stirred. It was evident every one was "up" for this recital. The stamp of excel- lence was upon it.

Baptism is a union or fellowship with Christ. An effec- tive relationship to Christ is formed because we know each other as members in a church. Baptism signifies "forgiveness of sins. According to teaching, baptism is a restored relationship. Through death and forgiveness restoration is made. 2) Forgiveness creates a differ- ent kind of life. To be free, each must be sure of the destiny of his soul. This is signified by baptism. 3) Baptism signifies commit- ment to Christ's work. Parents commit their children to Christ by baptism. A youth commits at confirmation. The example of parents gives something of God's love, grace and power. Each must open his heart to all to be truly meaningful. The order of baptism as present - cd in the Service Book was used. Hymns related to the service were sung.

Junior Agriculturalist program puts young people to work on farms The Junior Agriculturalist pro- gram is ready to begin operation for another year. Young people between the ages of 16-18 with no previous farming experience are eligible for the program. These students must show a willingness to work and learn on a Host Fancily Farm for the length of the program (June -August). Students will be required to work and live with the family for 12 out of every fourteen days. The Host Fancily must run a full time commercial operation and have a keen interest in supervising and working with inexperienced young people. The Host Family is required to supply a training allowance of $10 per day as well as the students room and board. The Ministry of Agriculture and Food will meet that 510 per day to enable the student to receive a total training allowance of $20 per day. At this time, there is still a need for both Host Families and stu- dentsIn Huron County.

More to nursery stock than price, local expert says BYSHELLYPAULOCIK WOODWINDS NURSERY BLUEVALE When spring arrives so dies a strong urge to plant trees and shrubs. Before you buy any, consider a few details to make sure you purchase wisely. As one would expect, a portion of the price tag on nursery stock relates to the retail outlet itself. Unless you have vast horticultural and landscaping knowledge, this is likely one occasion when compe- tent staff who can provide good advice, and back their products with reasonable guarantees, will be money well spent. Shy away from stock (and any stores offering such) that isn't identified by species or variety. A Norway Spruce has very different charac- teristics and uses than a Dwarf Alberta Spruce. A 'grab-bag' shrub ata bargain price may cause you nothing but grief later on. However, even before trees and shrubs arrive at the store, many factors In the nursery affect their final price. Obviously, any given variety of nursery stock can be sold at different sizes. Each year in the nursery adds extra cost, but gives the homeowner the benefit of greater landscaping value. Usually the older, larger plants have had additional root pruning or trans- planting. This initiates more root- ing which will minimize the shock of the final move. It also adds cost, but itis often the reason why a nursery plant survives when a plant taken from the bush will not. One of the confusing aspects of plant size, akin to comparing apples and oranges, is that one type of shrub may grow very rapidly, and therefore be twice the size but half the price of another one. While it may appear to be a bargain, it would be a wise purchasconly if itsuits your needs. The method of propagation has a great impact on the ultimate price of any tree or shrub. Occasionally nursery stock can be propagated by seed. An example of this would be Paper Birch. This is the cheapest but also the slowest method of producing saleable plants. How- ever the seedlings of most woody plants show noticeable variation and a high percentage of them fail to meet the rigid expectations made of nursery stock. For this reason most varieties of woody plants must be vegetatively propa- gated to reproduce an indenticai plant, time and time again. A preferred way is to root cuttings, as is done for example with Consort black currant. This increases the plant population quickly and quite cheaply. Often this method isn't very successful, and the propagator resorts to a form of grafting. Grafting not only involves skilled and costly labour, but also the "pieces" used to create a new plant have greater cost themselves. However, this union of an upper "piece" (scion) and a lower "piece" (rootstock) also presents a unique opportunity to combine to advantage. A good example of this is the production of apple trees. A scion of, perhaps Delicious, can be grafted onto a select rootstock, for instance M.26, which imparts dwarfing, improved hardiness, and resistance to certain pests. In fruit tree production the form of grafting used is budding, where a single bud is slipped beneath the bark of the rootstock. Other methods of grafting arc used to create landscaping trees such as the weeping forms of elm or birch, or the superior strain of Colorado blue spruce known as Hoopsi. Whatever propagation method is used there is an additional cost with some of the newest varieties or cultivars. This cost results from patent royalties, payable to the plant's originator for each and every new plant created. The last, and probably the most obvious factor affecting the cost of nursery stock is the form in which it is sold. Fhe least expensive way to handle stock is barefoot. The two drawbacks with barcroot stock is that it should be moved while it is dormant, making the selling sea- son early and also very short; and it must be properly protected while in transport, or it could be damaged. Much stock that is, in essence, barcroot is popped into a bag or pot of soil just as it is shipped. Although this packaged stock is slightly more expensive, its selling period is extended by a month or more. In recent years many plants reach the customer in the pots they were planted in years earlier. These container -grown trees and shrubs can be transplanted at virtually any point in the growing season. Again, they are slightly more expensive since the individ- ual pots necessitate a special production system that pays part- icular attention to watering and fertilizing. issoldisbalicdand burinpped(B & B). This method requires time- consuming, skilled labour, and occasionally the weighty stock may require special handling equip- ment. A modern form of the traditional B & B is the wire mesh Red Cross ready. + i��r rYi �1 `•`'� • Complete Nursery Stock • Garden Centre Items 1,1‘ • ce • Beddi g Plants • Large selection of Unusual Plants • Perennials • Landscape Designer on Staff -Rte,. • Come and see our wide selection of Spring flowering plants, ever- greens, trees and shrubs and meet our helpful and friendly staff.

Because of the expense, this method is only used for very Targe stock, or the few species, such as magnolia, which will not transplant successfully if they arc moved any other way. Regardless of what you buy, where, or at what price, the ultimate test of the plant's value is whether it suits your require• men ts. The first consideration with any stock is whether it is hardy in your location. Occasionally that special plant will entice you to risk hardiness, and it may be a rewarding challenge if you have a favored location, and you are willing to provide some extra care. The location for any plant must provide the proper soil type, drainage conditions, amount of sunlight, and last, but far from least, enough room for its eventual size. There is no economy, usually little beauty, to say nothing of the labour involved, in continually chopping back a shrub to maintain a window's view or a walkway. It is far better to fill in the temporary gaps with perennials and annuals while the shrubs size up. Landscaping is a long-term investment. The time you spent determining exactly what it is you want plants todo, and which plants can do the job best for you will be the best investment you could make. The reward will bring renewed pleasure each spring for years to come. INNENTORY SAL. before we move.

For this ruler and drawing a bunch of lines reason, he asks his clients to look on paper in hopes that it will turn through magazines to get some out to be a house. This is where the perspective of what they want. clients help conies into place. Before designing, time is spent talking with clients finding out their ideas, hone habits and in some cases, their way of life. Rutledge says when he first meets hisclicnts, he finds out what rooms they want, and because it currently costs approximately $SO to $60 per square foot to build a house, he needs to know what kind of budget he'll have to work with.

He says he asks these questions so that a little extra touch will be given to the arca of the house that is used most, At times, Rutledge says the Ontario Building Code and certain building by-laws pose as problems because ifhisclientsshow hint a lot that is fairly small, he asks himself, "How am 1 going to fit this in there?" Rutledge says that many archi- tects focus on the front of the house when designing. When he de- signs, he wants it to look good at all angles. "You have to have a house that is both functional and deli lit - Wood windows can help you save energy Why would anyone replace windows in their home before they've worn out? Because they're ugly, because they're too small, or because they waste energy. One way to eliminate all three problems is with attractive, properly -sized windows that are designed to conserve energy. Well -made wood windows, says the National Wood Window & Door Association, make it possible to have the large window areas that most homeowners prefer without increasing the cost of heating and cooling a home. Available in a variety of styles, sizes and finishes at most local building supply outlets, wood windows arc ready to install either by a do-it-yourselfer or a profes- sional contractor. All come with factory -applied weatherstripping to guard against heat -robbing air infiltration and double glazing to minimize heat loss through the glass area. Many also have an exterior cladding that all but eliminates the need for periodic painting. Another thing to consider when replacing windows is the style. Select those that open to admit breezes. Good ventilating units, such as casements which open to nearly 100 per cent of their opening area, can reduce the need for air conditioning whenever there are cool breezes in warns weather. Double -hung and gliding windows open to nearly 50 percent of their sash opening area. Where the windows are placed can also have a major impact on energy conservation. Face the largest window area south to take advantage of solar hent gain in winter.

Restoration and renovation plans are also involved in his work, whether it be fixing up one part of a house or the building as n whole. He said he feels most of his clients have a hard time deciding what to keep and what to throw away, so he suggests they make a list of the pros and cons involving parts of the house and decide from there. Before he plans a design for restoration/renovation, heasks for "the grand tour" both inside and outside the house and then makes a design of the building adding both his clients and his own ideas. He trys to move as few structural walls as possible because if it's restora- tion, "you want to change as little as possible." He says there are five reasons for hiring an architect as opposed to a contractor. There are more hours spent in actual designing and planning, the client's ideas are generated to the budding, there is a greater design in the building, more questions arc asked and problcrosaresolved ahead of time, and the natter of taste is consider- ed where Rutledge can share his ideas along with the client's. If a contractor is hired to simply construct from stock plans, very little planning is done. He says he became interested in architecture when he was a boy.

Ceramic tile rated most popular Regardless of its size or style, a good kitchen is both efficient and attractive. Because so many are- n't, kitchen remodeling remains one of the most popular home improvements year after year. But efficiency in a kitchen isn't related to size so much as is good layout and use of appliances, cabinets and other materials that helpget the job done with a minimum of fuss. Take ceramic tile, for instance. Ceramic tile is attractive, durable, economical, easy to clean and will not burn. Th at's why it's so popular on floors, wails and countertops in kitchens, says the Tile Council of America, Inc. Glazed tile has a glass -like surface, which may beshiny, matte or textured. Use glazed wall tile and glazed or unglazed ceramic mosaics for walls and back• splashes. Wall tile comes in a wide range of colors, designs and glazes. For countertops, use ceramic mosaics and tilts with heavy glazes. Ceramic floor tiles are usually more rugged than wall tiles. Glazed versions are matte or textured. When used on floors, ceramic mosaics should be unglaz- ed. Since tiles conies in myriad colors, shapes, patterns and tex- tures, it's wise to choose conserva- tively for a large areas such as floors and walls. Choose a neutral color that you won't tire of. Save the bright colors and decorative designs as accents in small areas. For walls, backsplashes and countertops, consider romantic fiorals in colors ranging from cherry blossom pink to cornflower blue. These shades bring reflicf from lots of dark wood cabinets. Metallic tile finishes as well as smooth whites, beiges and grays go well with contemporary kitch• cns. For the country look, consider hand painted tiles with such motifs as weathervanes, butter molds and Pennsylvania Dutch stencils. Old- world designs, florais and classic medallions are naturals with tradi- tional kitchens. On floors, neutral needn't mean mundane colors. There's a wealth of shades within the beige palette, ranging from peachy tanto rosy taupe. Browns run from caramel to espresso. Hedge useful as fencing You might call a hedge a "living fence". Whiles "living fence" never needs painting, it docs require special care. As it grows, your hedge will need watering, pruning and fertilizing to keep it healthy and green year after year. A hedge can be made up of a closely planted row of deciduous or evergreen shrubs, small trees or even annual flowers. Some hedges grow to a height of only 15 centimetres, while others can grown to 304 em. or more in height. When selecting shrubs and small trees, consider the size of youryardand the hedge's height at maturity, says Master Gardener Andy Langis of Sarnia, Ont„ one of several gardening enthusiasts a- cross the province who has receiv- ed formal horticultural training through the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food's Master Cardcner program. 1t is also important to select a hedge that is hardy enough to survive in your area. Check with your garden centre for hardiness information. Prepare your soil about four weeks before planting. Making a trench about 60 ctn. deep and 45 cni. to 91 cm. wide (depending on the size of the plant material and its height). To ensure good drainage, add 15 cm, to 20 cm. of gravel in the bottom of the trench. If the soil is rich, add a 10.6.4 fertilizer at a rate of one kilogram per 10 square metres. lfthe soil lacks nutrients, add compost and humus plus a 10.6.4 fertilizer, and water well. Now, choose plants that arc well branched at the base and about two -to -three -years -old (for a deci- duous hedge) and three•to•five. years -old (for evergreens). Check the plants when you, return home and if some of them look dry, put them in water for about one hour and then plant immediately. Plant the shrubs or trees about two cm. deeper than in the original container. Jiggle the plants to settle the soil around the roots of the plant and conintue filling in the trench, Water well. Now, prune the newly -set plant by about one-third. Prune new conifers only by nipping new growth in half. Prune broad -leafed evergreens as you would deciduous material, but more lightly. Prune broad -leafed cvcrgrcens againin the second and in the third year until your hedge has reached the desired height. When pruning, make sure the top is narrower than the bast so that the sunlight reaches all parts of the plant. Spring Fix -Up?

This is simple: • Vacuum regularly, even if soil is not visible! • Remove spills and spots promptly. • Dry clean the stain traffic areas. VACUUMING Hard surface floors are horizon• tel, and show soil and spills quickly. They are cleaned by sweeping or mopping. Carpet fibers are vertical, upright surfalc• es which hide soil that filters down into the pile, %Vhen thousands of soil particles aCellululate, then they become visible. Regular vacuunting will remove hidden soil 110d preserve the appearance of your carpet. Vacuum doorways several tittles a week, main traffic areas once a weekend hummers and long walls, once a month. Use n vacuum with a brush and beater bar, either an upright or a tank model tvith these features. Empty and replace the bags regularly, since a half•fllled bug reduces the machine's efficiency. Many household chemicals cause permanent stains lhaf are impossible to remove. Use them carefully. Acne medicines blench out 089)0 color, sometimes in high humidity and always during wit cleanings. Lawn beautification With the arrival ofspring and the fast approach of summer, many area residents have begun another season of rolling, fertilizing, mow- ing and watering their front and back lawns. Lawns usually will benefit front about four applications of a complete fertilizer each year. The first application should be given "in early spring just before active growth begins, the second in early May, and another early in June to maintain fertility to ensure the establishment of a good stand of turf," says J. C. 'Taylor of the Department of horticulture at the University of Guelph. 'I'hefourth application should be given in late summer or early fall to supply the plant food necessary for fall growth. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are the keys to your lawn's health. Nitrogen provides rapid growth, phosphorus gives a strong root system, and potassium prevents disease and gives grass wearability. After a long hard winter, many may notice that your lawn has been through a lot of wearand tear. Fora goad lawn, a spring raking should be done, to remove leaves and twigs. "One should not attempt to rake all the dead grass out of the lawn," Taylor says, because it will rot and disappear anyway and it adds to the richness of the soil. Many people think that grass benefits by mowing, but the main reason grass is cut is to Improve the appearance. The mower blades must be sharp so that the grass is cut cleanly, If a dull blade is used, the lips of the grass are bruised and the lawn will tarn brown. Taylor suggests and advises to oil your mower regularly, for smooth oper- ation. In the Huron County arca, Kentucky Blue Grass is the most suitable, and with a five cat. plowed length, it can achieve up to 24 0111. of root lenglh.^Kentucky Bine Grass is drought tolerant, winter durable and is easily managed. Its only set back is that it is not shade tolerant. Red Fescue is shade tolerant but doesn't have the other qualities like Kentucky Blue Grass. The largest problem in this area is bent grass which is a weed that tends to grow in patches and smother blue grass. This bent grass should be raked up prior to mowing so that as much as possible can be cut off by the mower blades, Taylor says. Toilet bowl and drain cleaners cause color bleaching and fiber damage, Chlorine bleaches, mil- dew killers and swimming pool chemicals cause yellow permanent stains. Fruit drinks are especially harmful since lheyh contain syn. lhelic dyes. Prompt action is the key to removing common spills • coffee, soft drinks, food and grease. Use dry, white towels to blot a wet spill. Never use a wet towel which will dilute and spread the spill. Use n spoon to scrape up a thick spill. Cover the wet spill with paper towels ora clean, dry, white towel. Wel 111 down with books, using aluminum foil between the books and towel. Most liquid spills will dry overnight and be absorbed into the towels. If still moist the next day, repeat the process, using dry towels. If discoloration remains after the spot is dry: 1) Mix a tablespoon of liquid dishwasiting detergent in a hall' cup of warm water. Moisten with your lingers a white towel and dab the spot lightly. Alternately dab, then 1)1(11 with a dry towel. If the color of the spot transfers in to the towel, continue the process until the color transfer stops.'1'hen cover with dry towels, using the overnight steps above, 2) If color docs not Transfer, try the sane "dab and blot" tech- nique using a hall -cup white vinegar 111 180d in one-half cup warns water. If color Iransl'crs, continue the process as above, Then cover With dry towels, using the same overnight technique, 3) If neither one nor two shows color transfer, try spot removers found in many carpet, %%count, rental and selected hardware stores. Apply spot remover to the towel. Never pour directly on the carpret. Use the same dab and blot technique. If one, two and three fail, most likely you have a permanent stain, CLEANING Souter or laberyour carpet must be cleaned, Must manufacturers recommend the dry extraction cleaning method today, Wet cleaning methods curry water and detergents down the sides of the upright vertical fibers into the carpel backing, taking along dissolved soil and spots.

Fish in the home relieves stress With the arrival of spring we are enjoying the beauties of nature • blooming flowers and greening shrubs and trees. Another natural beauty that can be enjoyed within the home is ornamental fish. The fascinating movements, bright and distinctive colours and various shapes of ornamental fish area delight for the whole family. Enclosed porches (or Florida rooms) arc Ideal locations for goldfish aquariums. Goldfish, un- like tropical fish, do not need a heated aquarium and are a great addition to spring and summer living. Goldfish are fun, goldfish are beautiful and, In fact, a study conducted by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania in 1980 concluded that watching ornamen• tal fish in home aquariums was a definite benefit In relieving stress, So, if you have some extra space and would like something your whole family could enjoy, consider an aquarium with ornamental goldfish. To go about starting a goldfish aquarium, you will first want to locate a good dcalcr. If you have a friend who has an aquarium, ask for a reference; otherwise the phone book lists most tropical fish retailers. Tropical fish arc warm-blooded and requirea heated aquarium. Goldfish do fine in an aquarium with a water temperature of arou n,' 65 degrees. When visiting a tropical fish store, get an idea of diffcrc Itt sizes of aquariums and,ty a of equip- ment you will need, A goldfish aquarium should be covered with a reflector using fluorescent lights which do not throw off a significant amount of heat. In terms of a stand fot your aquarium, your dcalcr will have a selection, but you could also consider building one to match the decor of your room. This is relatively simple but be sure it's very sturdy since the weight of the aquarium and water is quite heavy. A good idea is to build an open stand out of 2 x 4's and then cover the front with decorative paneling to match your room decor and leave the back open so that the wiring and tubing from your aquarium's pump and filtercan be stored out of sight. In addition to the reflector you will also need a good filter since goldfish are rather messy. Your dealer can help with a selection. Even thoughyou don't need a heater, it's a good idea to use a thermometer to make sure the water temperature docs not rise beyond 80°F. A recent development in thermometer technology is the liquid crystal digital thermometer which affixes to the outside of the aquarium, yet measures most accurately the water temperature. If you are going to keep a lot of fish you will also want a separate air pump in addition to the filter to add more oxygen to the water. Decoratingyourgoldfishaquari• um can be great fun. There arc multi -colored gravels, highly de- corative backgrounds, hundreds of ornaments as well as plastic plants so real in reproduction it's almost impossible to distinguish then from live plants. Most good retailers will have a complete assortment, and your selection should be based on the size of your aquarium and the amount of money you decide to spend. Once you have set up your aquarium, you should add a chlorine neutralizer to the water and initially add only a few fish. These fish will help develop the proper biological conditions ne- cessary to maintain a fully stockcd aquarium. After three or four weeks, assuming everything is functioning properly, you can then go ahead and add the rest of the fish. Aquarium maintenance is much simpler than people think. Every two weeks a partial water change (not greater than 20 per cent), by Spring good time to caulk Spring is a good time to caulk outside. It's warm enough and yet not too hot, Caulk works best in moderate temperatures - front 50 degrees to 80 degrees F. If colder, you should hent the caulk togct the right consistency for good applica- tion. For the same reason, if it's over 85 degrees F. the caulk should be cooled. Most homeowners check around window and door frames, joints where siding on corners meet each other or where siding of house meets the foundation, even around the window alt. conditioners, But some trouble spots are hidden by the flower beds or bushes • the areas around plumbing and ex- haust pipes for example. Apply caulk to the arca, pushing it intothcgap. Apply enough to the area so it is level with the surrounding surface. Use a putty knife or your fingers to smooth the patch.

A device called the Hydro•Clean allows efficient siphoning by sep- arating the debris from the gravel and removing it with the water from the aquarium. On a monthly basis, your filter will require minimal maintenance. That's all there is. Following this simple routine, your goldfish will live a long and prosperous life, In fact, one of the biggest problems people have is spending too much time maintain- ing their aquarium, On a daily basis, goldfish should be fed a small quantity of a quality flake food or pellet.

Compost improves garden Composting is a way to recycle house and garden vegetable waste into a useful additive that will improve the texture and fertility of almost any soil. "Best of all, composting is easy to do, costs very little and, providing you follow certain guide- lines, the composted material will not smell," says Horticulturist Anna Ballantyne of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food's Consumer Information Centre in Toronto. Composting can be done in a pile, a homemade bin or in a commercial compostcr. A pile is an easy way to start, but it requires more work once it is established; it is difficult to construct neatly, is slow to break down, and needs to be turned at least once to ensure that the outside decomposes. A homemade bin can be made out of almost any kind of scrap wood. But if you use solid materials, be sure to place holes in the wood to allow air to circulate, make the holes about three centimetres In diameter and space them about 15 cm. to 20 cm. apart. Or you could build your compost bin out of wood and chicken wire; simply build a wooden frame and then cover with wire mesh. A container about one meter long, one metre wide and one metre high should be large enough to hold the compostable waste from an average -sized family. Choosing a good locution for your compostcr is important too. It should be situated in a semi -shaded, well - drained area that is hidden from view, but close enough to the house that it is easily accessible. Compost anything from egg shells and vegetable peelings to leaves and grass clippings. "But don't add meat and dairy products because these will emit badodors and attract rodents. And diseased plants and weeds that have gone to seed arc best disposed of in the garbage," Ballantyne says. You can start a compost pile at any time. Fill the bottom of the container with a 30 cm. layer of compostable material. Compress this layer firmly and then cover with a layer of fertile soil; the soil is a food source for the micro- organisms that are breaking down the compost. • As additional material becomes available, add it to the pile, then compact it and apply another layer of fertile soil. If the material is dry, wet it down thoroughly. "It is important to keep the compost pile moist at all times and to turn the outsides of the compost to the centre at least twice during the summer to ensure even breakdown of the material," she says. Composting of most materials should take about three to four months. If you dig down below the surface layer and discover a dark -brown black material that looks almost like soil, the compost is ready to use. Add the compost to your garden soil or use it as a mulch around shrubs and perennials. Compost can also be used as a basis for potting soil or as a soil mix for window boxes and hanging bas• kets. For more information contact your local Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food office for Factsheet No. 70.016, "Compost- ing in the home garden", or write to the Consumer Information Centre, 801 Bay Street, Toronto, M7A 2132. No demand for Huron County homes If you're planning on buying a home, now is the time to do it because interest rates are down. According to Mason Bailey, a real estate agent in Clinton, "the rates are the lowest they've been in a long time." Around Huron County, he said there isn't a high demand for houses but, "there Is a shortage of desirable homes. Not a lot of people are building their own houses like they used to." He says when people look for houses on the market, the price range is considered, but more people tend to value the location. "They want a place where it's a short distance to walk or drive to work." He adds that when he trys to sell a house with a swimming pool, it's 90 per cent harder to sell. "They debate whether it will be a luxury or time and money wasted on main- tenance." He says many people won't look fora house in a town because 60 per cent of the people in Huron County depend on agriculture. This is posing a problem because agricul- ture is heading into a "down- ward trend because it's not as profitable as it used to be. Land now is worth about 60 per cent of what it was worth three years ago." When looking at farm property, he says that barn buildings don't • add tothe valueof the property due tothebarns being fairly old and the cost of repairing them has sky- rocketed. On the commercial side, he says people aren't buying the property.

THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 14, 1986. Conservation strategy recommended for Ontario Ontariomusicomcupwithanew approach to economic develop- ment, says a major new report by The Conservation Council of On- tario. "We have 10 recognize that our economic and social security is rooted in the wise conservation of our environment and resource base," said Simon Miles, Presi- dent of the Conservation Council. The report, "Towards A Conser- vation Strategy for Ontario", was commissioned by the Ministries of Agriculture and Food, Energy, the Environment, Natural Resources and the former Secretariat for Resources Development. It uses the World Conservation Strategy as a yardstick to assess conserva- tion and development in Ontario. The 165 -page document night be considered "a report card on conservation and development in the Province," according to Mr. Miles. In general, our Province has been at the forefront of environ- mental protection in a number of 'areas, such as acid rain. However, we can see there is much room for improvement. Throughout North America, governments have been slow to respond to the growing demand for environmental protec- tion." The Council sees the answer lying in the development of a Provincial conservation strategy. In conducting the study, more than seventy people contributed to the work of six task forces. Among the problems identified by the report arc: • Agriculture: The competition of the market has pushed produc- tion up 10 40 per cent in the lust 25 years. The price has been the disappearance of wildlife habitats and the loss of soils for future generations. "Our food costs us more than we pay full," the report observes. • Forestry: For decades we have cut down more trees than we have replaced through natural regencr- • alion or by replanting. The net result is that an industry that contributes a $2 billion trade surplus is gong tobeable to deliver Tess and less in the near future. • Water Rcsourccs Manage• mcnt: Like forests, water resuuccs have been treated as if they were inexhaustible. We have billed ourselves little for using and polluting them. But the true costs arc poorer public health, poorer wildlife and recreational opportun- ities, and a growing bill for the Great Lakes clean-up - to be paid for by our children. • Wildlife and Natural Areas: Although we are beginning to recognize the value ofour heritage, itis taking us a painfully long time to establish a minimal system of protecting it. • It required 18 years of pressure from citizens' groups to win guarantees for the ecological health of the Niagara Escaprmcnt • IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE with a flare, tv ecb And Wel-Done Rarelyar you llnd • medium' ' coked home, w e wNl done 0. such a conv area 3 beams., 1 6 , baln, pen ret rm, IOM w. ell,' central elr. new cwpellnp {Sr,' WANT AD and that is just one small corner of a vast and threatened environ- ment. • Waste Management: As socie- ty hasdeveloped, we have used the environment as a sink for our wastes. The problem we created by doing that is growing worse. The new wastes from modern forms of production are often chemical compounds that do not break down as part of the normal biological process. As a result, deadly chemicals such as PCBs continue to accumulate. • Land Use Conflicts: Some 56,000 hectares of Classes One to Three agricultural land were lost to urbanization between 1966 and 1981 in Ontario. With 52 percent of Canada's Class One land, Ontario has a responsibility to other Canadians to minimize this loss. But institutional arrangements for protecting natural areas and good agricultural land from the advance of cities are still inade- yuatc. "Eachofthe task forces examin- ing these issues found itself confronting the same problem," said Mr. Miles. "The cost of cleanup and catchup is increasing astronomically. In future, we must find another, cheaper way to improving the quality of lift." The answer, according to the Conser- vation Council, Is to develop a comprehensive conservation stra- tegy to guiding the future develop- ment of Ontario. evelop.nlentofOntario. This would enable us to find the most cost-effective CO.OP lD solutions to existing problems, In the long run, It would also enable us to anticipate and prevent further problemsandthus keep the costs of environmental protection to a minimum. Tobe effective, the Council feels that such a strategy would have to be pursued throughout the govern- ment, not just in those Ministries directly involved with the environ- ment. Cliff Pilkey, President of The Ontario Federation ofLabqur• one of 32 Member Organizations of the Conservation Council - called on the Province fora strongercommit- mcnt to conservation and environ- mental protection. He also empha- sized the role of citizens in following up on the report. "We'll be striving to bring the message of the report to our 800,000 mem- bers," Ile said. Monte Hummel, President of the Canadian office of the World Wildlife Fund, welcomed the Council's report. "We're very pleased with this initiative by the Conservation Council and the Province," said Mr. Hummel, "However, a conservation stra- tegy is only a stepping stone. It's only worth anything If it leads to concrete action." Copies of "Towards A Conser- vation Strategy for Ontario" are available from The Conservation Council of Ontario, Suite 202, 74 Victoria Street, Toronto M5C 2A5 at $10.00, including postage and handling.

Pasteurization is the heat treatment given milk and cream to destroy harmful micro- organisms, including those that cause tuberculosis, brucellosis and typhoid. Pasteurization also de- stroys microorganisms that could complete with bacterial cultures used to make cultured products. All milk and creast sold in retail stores in pasteurized. The methods described all use pasteurized milk. If the milk is fresh from the farm and has not been heat treated, 11 may present risks; pasteurize if before use. To pasteurize milk and cream use a double boiler. Heat the milk and creast to 82 degrees Celsius, and hold it at that temperature for 30 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning. A skin will forst on the surface of the milk; skim this off as it causes lumpiness in fermented products. After heating, cool the milk or cream quickly 11 C0I(I wo ter 811(1 Huron women teachers hear former resident speak Huron county native Joan Wes- cott, executive director of the Federated Women Teachers Asso- ciation of Ontario, called for action topress the provincial government for more resources for Ontario schools while addressing 170 female employees (trustees, tem chers,teachers' aides, secretaries and custodians) of the Huron County board of education. Westcott was guest speaker at a dinner in the Stanley Complex sponsored by the FWTAO and organized by the Huron County Women Teachers Association to stark the second anniversary of the addition of section 15 to the Charter of Rights, guaranteeing equality of protection, rights and benefits under the law to every individual regardless of sex. After acknowledging women's long struggle to be recognized as persons, Westcott turned toher current concern, the present state and projected future of education as detailed in u brief entitled The Clouded Crystal which was prepar- ed by the 105,000 -member Ontario Teachers Federation and present- ed to the Peterson cabinet in January. The brief's arguments are built around the premise that the one constant in education from now until the year 2000 will be rapidly accelerating change. Both govern- ment and educators nccd to realize the effect of current trends and learn to be prepared beforehand, rather than reacting afterward, Westcott said. The Clouded Crystal outlines some of the increased pressures on the educational system of Ontario. Growing drug and alcohol addic- tion; young suicides; loss of deep personal relationships as families break up or change; the effect of easily obtainable pornography on unformed minds; a multicultural society with a consequently thinn- er base of shared expectations, attitudes, customs, social habits and goals; technological advances; and demographic trends toa lower birth rate, an older population and an aging teaching profession with less opportunity for new challeng- es, all directly affect Ontario schools according to the brief. A study by a Guelph professor proved that external factors such as the level of community unem• ploymentorfamily conflicts result- ed in negative attitudes and decreased interest in learning among students. Demands for increased school- ing and more credentials, French education for any Franco -Ontario pupil whose parents request It, return to the classroom of many adults, declining enrolment 811(1 other educational trends arc putt- ing more pressure on teachers, Westcott observed. Westcott stressed tate import- ance of values education, and the nccd to integrate this subject into lhcentirc curriculum. There has to be a balance between "crcatives" and the traditional basic subjects, she said. Children must also be taught to problem -solve and deve- lop the ability to think critically. Research shows young women are still choosing traditional car• errs, Westcott pointed out, and she put part of the blame on stereotyping by women teachers, noting "we do it without thinking, because we were socialized the sauna way". Westcott was interrupted by loud applause when she quoted government figures saying it costs $900 Icss to educate each elemen- tary student and added "we say more money for smaller classes". Summarizing the need for more money for textbooks, teachers and other learning resources to cope with the growing responsibilities of the school system, Westcott concluded by saying "No longer can we sit back and hope that some day the government of Ontario will wake up to the fact that to build a firm foundation for every child we need more resources ... and we can't do it without the support of the provincial government. It's 1986. Wended to act this year. 1 hope you are going to be with us." Got a beef?

THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 14, 1986. 4 TIM r Junior Farmer group keeps busy With the arrival of May, Junior Farmers are looking forward to the coming of summer and those days Farmers to take part in farm census On June 3, 1986 farm operators will be asked tocomplete a Census of Agriculture questionnaire. Farm operators will be continuing a long history of complying with the Census which was first instituted in 1871. In 1871 and in subsequent years the operator and owner were, in most cases, one and the same person. In later years as our population and technology chang- edsohas the linkage between farm operator and farm owner. Though the majority of farm operators in the 1981 Census of Agriculture also owned all their farmland, there are an increasing number of farm operators who work land that Is owned by others. Irrespective of land ownership, it is the farm operator who is asked to complete a Census of Agriculture question- naire. An operator, for the purpose of theCensus, is the person responsi- ble for the day-to-day decisions made in the operation of an agricultural holding. In some cases, the farm operator lives in an urban centre. That is why everyone will be asked if they operate an agricultural holding with sales of agricultural products of $250 or more at the drop off of the Census of Population questionnaires. The S250 figure was chosen so that the maximum number of holdings were included in the Census while household garden sales were not included. Statistics Canada recog- nizes that Census Day falls in a busy time for farm operators. Early summer enumeration was chosen In 1881 because of the difficulty encountered In reaching more Spring a stress -filled time on the farm BYLERARYAN Spring weather brings hectic schedules to most farms. Long working hours, equipment break- downs, and unco-operative weath- er make some people frustrated and irritable. Meals may be delayed; there is little time to relax; things may not "go right". Stress builds easily. Making clear decisions becomes difficult and often there is an increase in farm accidents. Stress is one of the human risks offarming. In the midst of planting season, doyou find yourself yelling at your spouse or ready to snap when your son asks you a simple question? Another person may be unable todiscuss worries and try to avoid family and friends, This anti -social behaviour is usually n reaction to the situation rather than that particular person. You may recognize stress in family members, You can help by keeping that person up to date on farm and family activities. Discuss other topics as well. Listen care- fully and show appreciation to your partner and children. You can help yourself to handle stress too. Take a few minutes each day to plan the next day. Eat regular balanced meals. If you stay in the field for meal time, take a break to cat. Try to keep in touch with your family's activities and needs. It is important to discuss your problems with your spouse, older children or a close friend. Everyone needs a support system. Learn to share your bad times as well as your good times) Other ways to relieve tension are having an early morning quiet time, complete relaxation for 10 • 15 minutes, active recreation or volunteer work. Make a commit- ment to yourself to make each day easier and more enjoyable for you and your family. FARM BY AIR BOOK NOW!

It was retained for several reasons; millions of dollars are saved by conducting the Census of Agricul- ture at the same time as the Census of Population, areas sown to crops can be determined more easily, spring calving is nearly complete, and because the summer holidays have not begun. It doesn't take a great deal of time to complete the questionnaire and all answers arc kept strictly confidential. The Census of Agri- culture is the largest survey of our country's agricultural situation.

But, until that time the increasing number of activities seems to be just enough to keep them in shape. During the past month the Clinton and District Junior Farm- ers have been busy planning and attending activities and events throughout southwestern Ontario.

At that time a total of approximately 12 new members had joined. A reminder to all that memberships will now be accepted during any month. At the meeting the Junior Farmers received a report with regard to donating their services to the Ministry of Natural Resources.

Program offers experience The Junior Agriculturalist pro- gram provides an opportunity for an urban youth to Iivc and work on a farm for the summer months. The "Jr, Ag." must be between 16and 18 years of age with absolutely no previous farm experience. The students receive valuable experi- ence and exposure to farm life. The Junior Agriculturalist is entitled to have every second weekend off from his duties. The Junior Agriculturalist lives on a host farm with a carefully selected family for the summer months. Host families must run a full time commercial operation, and have a special interest in supervising and working with inexperienced youth to help them develop the skills needed on a farm. The Junior Agriculturalist re- ceives a training allowance of 520 per day for their services. The Ministry of Agriculture and Food. supplies 510 of the total 520 for the Junior Ag. The host farmer contributes the remaining 510 per day and must supply room and board for the youth. Host families are still required for Huron County. It will prove to be a rewarding experience for not only theyouth, but also the host family.

Voice for Life group names new 1986-87 directors The twelfth annual dinner meet- ing of Wingham and Arca Voice for Life was held at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church on April 23. Mrs. Sally Campeau chaired the meeting and presented the film, "The Silent Scream". This film, narrated by Dr. Bernard Nathan- son, depicts the abortion of a twelve•weck•old fetus, visible through ultra -sound. Dr. Nathan- son, a former abortionist and one-time director of the largest abortion clinic in North America, became an ardent supporter of the pro-life cause, when he came to see the fetus as a human being, "fully indistinguishable", in his words, from other human beings.

He said that if we don't do this we are missing out on the most important relationship. of our lives. He said "to deepen that relation- ship we must spend more time in listening and praying.

PAGE 27. PASTOR, WESTFIELD CHURCH Ex -convict Ernie Hollands serv- ed 25 years of his life in various prisons .., robbery after robbery, prison escapes, living a Iifc of crime and degradation beyond the comprehension of most of us, Now however, Ernie Hollands lives a new Iifc in stark contrast, as white is from black, as day is from night. How do you even begin to explain suchadramaticabout face. Whatisit that affected this miracle ina life that was otherwise doomed to ever-increasing wickedness un- til its end? No doubt somewhere along the line when Ernie's life was trans. formed someone said "Ernie Hollands got religion". But reli. gion, to quote the late Dr. Oswald J. Smith, is "What man does for God. Salvation is what God does for man." !fit was merely religion then it is something that is within the realm of human ability. But this was a miracle, supernatural, utterly be. yond Ernie's greatest power or noblest dream. Reformation is the word someone else might use. It is a fact that some individuals make a conscious mental resolution to change and to experience an outward reformation. Their be- haviour conforms dramatically to society's acceptable standards. They seem to be "cured" as it were, but alas one circumstance or another along the way reveals that the change was not from the heart after all, it was all on the outside. What then was it that miracu- lously transformed Ernie Hol - lands' life? One day someone told Ernie that Jesus Christ loved him, that Jesus' blood was shed on Calvary's cross from his sins and that Ernie could know forgiveness and cleansing. They said he could know real peace and joy and purpose in his Iifc if he would but turn from his sin and receive Jesus Christ into this Iifc, as his personal Saviour and Lord. Ernicdid just that, and in one.' glorious moment became a new person with a new heart, bent on going God's way • a way of righteousness. Ernie has ncvcrgonc back to his former Iifc because it was not just religion, not simply resolve or reformation. It was an act of God in Ernie's control centre - his heart. You say "well, that's marvellous forsomcone like Ernie, but I've lived a good lift and tried to do my best. Isn't that all that really matters?" The Bible says "There Is a way that seemed: right unto a man, but the end thereof arc the ways of death". (Proverbs 14:12). Whether one has lived a Iifc of crimcoralife ofmoral respectabili- ty, they nccd to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour, not only bccausc He imparts abundant life here and now, but bccausc He gives eternal life without which no one can enter into Heaven when they die. The only way any individual can know forgiveness of sins and have eternal life is the way it was for Ernie Hollands. No exceptions. Jesus said "I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh until the Father but by me." (John 14:6). At this moment you may not see your need of Christ. Eternity will be too late to make your decision. Now - right now is the time. Jesus said in Revelation 3:20 'Behold 1 stand at the door, and knock: if any nein hear my voice, and open the door, 1 will conte in to him and will sup with him, and he with mc." Don't throw it out!

Trick a tree into fruiting sooner If you area fruit lover and have a new apple or pear tree in your yard, you know the frustration of waiting an average of four, Id five years before you can harvest significant amounts of fruit. "The time to harvest can be shortened to three years by "limb spreading" - forcing the limbs of trees to grow at a wider angle than they would normally," says Horli- culturistRuth Friendship ofthe Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food's rural organizations and services branch. Limb spreading can be perform- ed nn plants of any age (the earlier the better) and at any time, although spring is the best lime to do it. Limb spreading will increase the amount of light intercepted by the plant and affects the plant's growth hormones, resulting in earlier flowering. Sonic commercial producers practise this technique in order to receive faster returns on their investments. Others shy away from it because of the expense and lime involved in a large-scale operation. But hone gardeners, with only a few trees, should be able to use this concept, Friendship says. Basically, limb spreading in- volves wedging wooden spreaders between the main trunk and the limbs. This is necessary because most apple and pear varieties have an upright pattern of growth.

Depression often under -recognized, expert says Clinical depression is more than just a case of the blues. Other symptoms 'may include forgetful. ness, a persistent loss of appetite, • the inability to sleep, and constant fatigue or restlessness. There arc different kinds of depression, such requiring its own specialized type of treatment. And, according to the results of a recent nationwide survey in the U.S., many pcoplc maybesuffcrcing from depression without realizing it. "We know that clinical depres- sion is under -recognized and, therefore, under treated," cam- mcnts psychiatrist Dr. William Zung, of the Duke University Medical Centre, North Carolina. "In certain cases, depression may be associated with a chemical imbalance in the brain or a change in body chemistry. Anti•depres- santdrugs are often used success- fully but you have to identify it before you can treat it. Sleep disturbance can he a symptom but ifa hypnotic drug is prescribed the underlying depression goes un- treated." Dr. Zung was in Halifax this week to lecture fancily physicians an the diagnosis and treatment of depression. He has been participa- ting in three nationwide projects from which he is assetnbling data about depression. All three are aimed at alerting physicians as well as lay people to a common medical problem. The most recent study reports the findings of an.. earlier one at Duke University in . which hidden or masked depres- sion was diagnosed In 143 of 1,000 patients seen at the medical centre's Fancily Medicine Clinic. "Clinical depression is more than a case of the blues," points out Dr. Zung. "Many people fail to make Ihcconneclion between, say, forgetfulness or the inability to sleep and clinical depression. That is why we speak of h as hidden or masked. The patient sense that something is wrong, but doesn't know what. Most of us occasionally have insomnia or feel tired, but don't have (hese and other symp- toms of depression over a long period of time, and they don't occur in clusters." Dr. Zung reports the condition is found in children as well as adults, with the highest incidence in people between the ages of 25 and 44. He adds that twice as many women as men arc diagnosed as having depression. Dr. Zung reported on the successful use of a self -rating depression scale he developed. The scale has been used as a diagnostic aid by general practi- tioners and psychiatrists for more than 20 years, 1l has been translated into 30 lagnuagcs. He describes the scale as a tool for checking "the emotional vital signs" ofa patient. It consists of20 statements, each of which relates to a specific characteristic of clinical depression in four basic areas: physical, psychological, psychomotor and mood. The pa- tient rates them according to how applicable they are to his life during the preceding two weeks. Hecan check one of four boxes with headings ranging from "None or a little of the time" to "Most or all of the time." Examples include: I get tired' for no reason: I have crying spells or feel like it; I am restless and can't sleep. "By using a simple scoring method,"sayd Dr. Zung, "The physician can use the scale in- conjuntion with his own clinical observations to gunge the patient's emotional state, The scale is proving useful in evaluating thera- py as well as screening for depression. Those who arc treated. successfully tend to score better when given the scale to complete a second time." Adds Dr. Zung: "'this is an effort to identify the problem and let people know that they can change the way they feel about themselves and life." Dr. 'Lung was visiting Canada as n visiting professor under the Continuing Education Program of the pharmaceutical firm Rhone- Poulenc Pharma Inc. of Montreal. Prevention Just because your septic syste is out of sight does not mean I should always be out of mind Unfortunately, the millions homeowners with septic system often don't think about them unt it's too late, not realizing prcven tivc maintenance can mean th difference between costly, mess problems and a trouble-free sys tem. To maintain your septic syste properly, It is important to under stand how it works. There are tw types of septic systems: Septi tanks and cesspools. In both, wast flows from the house through a undergiown sewage line (inle pipe) into a collection arca. In a septic tank, which is a close system, the collection arca I scaled. In a cesspool, which is a open system, the collection area i a large covered hole under the ground. Your septic system requires constant bacterial action to funs - tion properly. An aerobic bacteria (in a septic tank) and aerobic bacteria (in a cesspool) feed on solid and liquid waste matter, turning solids into liquids through digestive active. These liquids are then dispersed into the surround- ing soil. Problems such as back-up begin when bacteria in the septic systemare weakened or killed clue to improper maintenance, accumula- tion of oils or grease, or excessive use of harsh household chemicals. In a back-up, inlet and outlet pipes become clogged, strong odors form and sewage can backup into the home. The only solution to this emergency is n costly, messy pumping out of the entire system. best care for septic tank m of s 11 c y m 0 c 0 n d• • s n Don't throw it out!

As of April 30, the number of groups purchasing tickets was double the figures for the same leriod in 1985. Sales of vouchers ,vert up nearly 50 per cent. Twice as many seats have been sold for each performance as at this time last year; one matinee perfor• mance of Drift by Rex Deverell is already completely sold out and most other matinees are filling up quickly! Brenda Doncr, General Mana• ger, attributes the increase to three main factors: the public enjoyed the 1985 season and want to book Shrubs nice addition to small lots Slow-growing shrubs nice for small lots. Remember the large mock - orange and forsythia grandmother used to plant. Link homes and back splits have changed that. Today many city lots are much too small for such large shrubs to be used effectively, says Horticul- turist Glen Lumis of the University of Guelph's horticultural science department. Small shrubs often grow more slowly than large ones. This is an asset since slower -growing shrubs don't overgrown their intended space so quickly. Don't be fooled by a plant's size when you buy it. That small potted shrub may soon become too large for the space you allotted. When planning your landscape, use shrubs to provide balance, continuity, textural contrast and flower color display. Shrubs, like trees, can provide interest throughout the year. It's a good idea to discuss your Brussels Past Grands meet On Monday evening Sister Marguerite Crawford opened her home to the members of the Past Noble Grands Club, with sisters Margaret McCutcheon and Mary Davidson as hostesses.
