The May birthday party for the residents of Huronview, who claim May as their birthday month, will be sponsored by Brussels and Cranbrook Wo- men's Institute. Owing to the holiday week- end, the regular meeting of the auxiliary will be held May 22. Plans were finalized at this meeting for the auxiliary to participate in the TV program "Take Your Choice," on CFPL- TV Station, London, so on Sat- urday evening about 35 auxil- iary members and friends jour- neyed to London. Members of the auxiliary taking part as contestants were the president, Mrs. Fred Thompson; treasurer, Mrs. W. C. Bennett, both of Clinton; publicity convener, Mrs. Lorne Scrimgeour, Blyth. They were assisted by Superintend- ent Harvey Johnston. The group was delighted to be able to add $125.00 to the auxiliary funds, with which they will extend their work of bringing pleasure and comfort to the residents of Huronview. The participants were com- mended by CFPL for attaining the most money of any group that had participated to date. Advises Plant Roses Early If you are. planning to plant roses this spring, you should do so as early as possible, advise horticulturists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture. When preparing a rose bed, remember that the planting is of a more or less permanent na- ture, and a bit of extra care will pay dividends over the years to come. Roses like a rich, deep soil that is well drained. When pre- paring the soil, add plenty of well rooted manure, dig in well and as deeply as possible. If you cannot get manure, any or- ganic matter such as rotted leaves will do along with a fer- tilizer such as 4-12-16. Unless you have had a soil test and know your specific require- ments, a general rate of about two.pounds per 100 square feet is recommended. As soon as you get your rose bushes, unpack•them, soak them in water and plant immediate- ly. If they arrive before you have the ground ready for them, here's what to do. Soak the bushes as before, and then "heel them in" in a trench. Set the bushes close to- gether and cover them with soil at least half way up the. stems. When you have permanent beds ready, dig a hole large enough to allow the roots to be spread out in a natural man- ner. The depth of the hole should be such that the swollen area on the stem just above the roots is about one inch be- low the soil' surface. When planting, it is very important to firm the soil around the roots. If you are planting several bushes, make sure that their roots do not dry out while planting is going on. After planting, hill soil up around the bushes, and give the ground a thorough soaking. The soil should be hilled tip around the bushes for 10 days to two weeks to help them be- come established. Rose bushes that are planted in the spring should be cut back to four or five inches from the ground level after planting is completed. During the summer it is im- portant to keep down the weeds and also to prevent a hard crust forming on the surface`p£ the soil. You' can do this either. --of. two ways. Eithef' hoe occasion- ally or add a mulch to soil sur- face around the bushes. Sev- eral materials can be used, but peat is probably the best due to its good moisture conserva- tion, and neatness. Other mulches such as straw are. li- able to get blown away and become unsightly. MON. - TUES.-WED.'

Interest 1n Politics Vital Young Liberals Told Whjle an interest in politics is vital, it is particularly impor- tant that young people show an interest, William Nediger, of - the SDHS staff, told Seaforth Young Liberals meeting in the Community Centre Tuesday ev- ening. - Only through an active and informed youth could other young people• be introduced to politics and the interest main- tained, he said, and referred to the • fact that interest on the part of youth was a recent - development. Speaking about education and educational finance, the speak- er pointed out that in the per- iod from 1947-1960, the increase in enrolment in schools had been only 20 per cent, while the cost per capita had risen sharply from $12 to $45. This has created problems, mainly in unequal taxation to rural com- munities where the major por- tion of school taxes originate. In suggesting a cure to the. problem, he said that education must become the concern of the government at all' levels, and not be left to the munici- palities. Since the Federal Gov- ernment has now advanced money to set up technical schools, but not to operate them, a review leading to as- sumption of operating costs as well is desirable. Federal con- trol also would create one edu- cational system, instead of ten different ones, and this• would provide a better, cheaper and more efficient system. Returning again to govern- ment, he suggested the two ma- jor parties must fight together against extreme socialism, or we will become- a hotbed for the seeds of communism. The young people must keep inter- est alive in politics, so that they will be informed and in a When it comes to planting seeds, the three commonest mis- takes of the new gardener and some 'Who should know better are too soon, too thick and too deep. There is no advantage at all in sowing most flowers and veg- etable seed while there is still danger of hard frost. The seed will simply lie dormant or rot in cold' wet soil. Not until the sun really warms up and the soil too is there any 'growth. Far better to err on the late side than the early. In many parts of Canada Tune is a. safer and better planting month than May, and we don't need to wor- ry if we haven't got a spade in the ground in April. Planting seed too close to- gether is another common and serious mistake. Pvei};...the tin- iest things like alyssum, agera- tum, lettuce and radishes;.; all benefit from plenty of room. If possible seed of these should be spaced at least a couple of inches apart or later the tiny plants thinned to that distance. And larger things that grow say a foot or so high need at least half their mature height in be- tween. This means for medium sized petunias, asters and zin- nias at least afoot, and for car- rots, beans and beets;'"?;ix . to 'eight inches. As for depth of planting, the general rule is three times the diameter of the seed. This means merely a light patting for small seeds as of lettuce, carrots and radish among the vegetables and alyssum and poppies in the flower line. A good plan is to mix the very smallest seeds with a little sand and sow the two together. Then sprinkle with a little more sand and merely press lightly. With larger plants such as peas, beans and corn, half to an inch is about the proper depth to plant. If we sow too deeply the seed •will either rot, or the new, sprout will smother and die be- fore it reaches the surface. * * Don't Rush One gets a great kick out of having sweet peas in bloom days before one's neighbor, or to be able to offer him lettuce or radishes while his are still just growing. But rushing the season is a risky sort of busi- ness. A late frost, or a few days of cold, wet .weather can set one back so far that later sown things will actually come. along faster. In any case it is always well to make several sowings. By doing so we make sure of hav- ing something if the first is d frozen or drowned ' out. But more important is that several sowings will spread out the season. If one plants everything at once then all will bloom or be ready for the table at once and all the fun will be over too soon. Spread out the sowings and one spreads out the ..har- vest. Moreover, while we can certainly plant things too soon, especially t e n d er varieties, there is not anything like the same limit at the other end. In many parts of Canada it is amazing what a fine garden one can have even if we don't get a seed into the ground until late June. * * Secret of Good `Lawns Like any other plant, grass will do a lot better if it is giv- en an occasional feeding of fer- tilizer, preferably high in nitro- gen, as that is the element that makes green growth. Lawn grass also lines to be thoroughly soaked, not just sprinkled, with water once a week during dry, hot weather, and of course, the real foundation of a beautiful lawn, dark green, thick and fine stemmed, is the proper seed, not some special bargain, but a mixture blended by expert seedsmen, that contains only high quality grasses and in the proper. proportions. Only with such seed can one hope. to have a lawn that will stay green all summer long and will actually improve rather than deteriorate as the years go by. And a lawn, as every real gardener knows, is the ,central theme and perhaps the most important part of any garden layout.
