Seed Catogue is Big Help In. plann g a garen, a seed catalogue wi .e indispensable. Newspaper columnists who are usually hard up for something new to write about at this sea- son, like to pdke fun at the seed catalogues. Invariably they pretend that the pictures are exaggerated. Actually, as any gardener with- a year's experi- ence will confirin, the pictures never do justice to the real col- or of the flowers and, 'no photo, or even painting, can depict the freshness of peas or corn as they come right from the garden at ' the door. In the catalogue, there are two or three points which one should note and remember. These are heights of plants when full grown, colors, and titti of blooming, if it is a flower garden we are planning, or with vegetables, maturity, which is just another way of saying "when ready to eat". We should have a good idea of—how .is or tomato plant will' be - grown before we pia the ed er row in which to p it. we don't we may find tiny things like alyssum, portulaca and ver- benas, completely hidden by giant marigolds or dahlias,, or lettuce crowded° out by corn. And we may have a jungle on' our hands instead of tidy and beautiful garden. Time of blooming and ma- turity are important points be- cause when we know these, then we canlan to have some- thing always in bloom and a succession of, the freshest vege- tables coming along for the table. It is ,also a good thing to know whether a certain flow- er or vegetable we would like to try is hardy enough for our particular corner of Canada, or whether it will like our kind of soil, or slope. It is well, too, to take into consideration the color of the -flowers we plan to grow. Nature does not permit much clashing of color but we, ,can get more interesting and more beautiful blending if we help by planning. * * * But You Can't Buy This Kind "Why should I bother to grow vegetables when I can buy them as cheap,, or cheaper in the stores?" How often do you hear that from the man who has never growneany vegetables and certainly ha'W never eaten any just out of the garden. Maybe he is right about cheap- ness, that depends how much he values his time out in the sunshine and fresh air - getting a little exercise. But one thing is certain, the vegetables one buys are not at all the same as the vegetables one grows. There is nothing quite so per- ishable as garden freshness, and especially when it comes to things like garden corn, peas, lettuee, baby carrots, and so on. Actually, corn and peas lose their really fresh flavor in a matter of hours. For the very best quality they should be picked just when they are at their tender best, cooked lightly and eaten immediately. That's impossible, of course, when they have to be trans- ported hundreds of miles. That's why experienced garden- ers, even in the suburbs of the big Cities, grow a few rows of vegetables for really fresh summer eating. * * * Timely Tips Now is the time for starting African violets from cuttings. Ontario Department of Agricul- ture horticulturists advise mak- ing leaf cuttings from firm heal- thy mature leaves. Plant the leaf cuttings in either sand or perlite. Do not set them too deep because the young plant is formed at the bottom of the petiole and grows up through the rooting medium. * * * Home gardeners who have allowed ,them to dry out should pot them up without delay. Horticulturists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture sug- gest cutting back the stems to encourage bushy plants. Move the 'plants to a sunny window and increase watering. When the warm weather arrives the plants will be ready for trans- planting in the garden. Good garden seeds cost but a few cents per packet, but of, all the factors that go to pro- duce a successful garden it is the most essential. Soil, fer- tilizer, weather apd -care may be perfect, but without good seed, true to variety and spe- cially selected for Canada,- fail- ure is certain.. Beginners in gardening (the others don't need to be reminded) . are strongly advised to let the plant breeders save the seed and get theirs from a Canadian seed house. * * x Nursery stock, that is bush- es, shrubs,. trees and vines , are best planted as early in the spring as the ground_ can be dug. If this is impossible when they arrive, store in some cool, moist place and if possible cov- er the roots with damp earth or sand. OBITUARIES ' MRS. B.

COLUMBAN HONOR MRO, MRS. M. MELADY ON 25th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY On Saturday evening, neigh- bors and friends gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Melady to congratulate them on their 25th year of mar- riage, and to extend good -wish- es to them in their new home. They were married October 30, 1937, in St. Joseph's Church, Clinton, by Rev. Father Sulli- van. Mrs. Melady, the former Mary Flynn, is the daughter of the late .Mr. and Mrs. Owen Flynn, Hallett Township, and Mr. Melady is the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Melady, Hibbert Township. They have a family of three sons and one daughter: Jack, on the teaching staff of Trenton High School; Theo, on the home farm in Hip- bert; Jim, at home; and Mary, Mrs. Glen Butters, London. During the evening cards were played, with prizes going to Mrs. Jack Murphy, Albert Cronin, Mrs. Jack Nigh and Jack Nigh. An address was read by Mich- ael Williams and a presenta- tion of a silver tea service was made by Emmett Malone. A delicious lunch was served. The following is the address: "Dear Mary and Maurice: Your silver anniversary we did not forget; it was the time and place that was so hard 'to get. As you know, this party is four months late, but it's never too late to extend to you annivers- ary wishes, and now a new housewarming, too. Congratula- tions and our best wishes are going your way; it has been 25 years since your wedding day. Let's turn back the page to 25 years ago, when Maurice deckl- ed batching must go; alone all night, it is no life, 'I'll have to go out and find myself a wife.' "With a sharp eye for the girls, and that sly Iittle grin, off he went in the old Ford to the home of Owen Flynn. To their only daughter, Mary, he turned on the charm, and it wasn't so long until he had her right'on his farm:. October 30th they were married and then set- tled down, Mary, though a stranger -in Hibbert, fitted in like a crown. A year passed by, and oh, what joy, Jack arrived, a bouncing baby boy. Then came Theo, .then Mary; another girl would even the score, but Jimmie was sent to make it the four. Now who could ask for more," three boys and a girl; a great joy to have, but it means more toil, more farms to buy, more machinery to get. "All this accomplished, and then by heck, just as fast as they came, they, started to go; until now the farm belongs to son Theo. Around the corner there began more work and more plans; a new house had to be built on the Old McCann's. Now, with a job well done, you can sit back and relax, figuring out a way to beat the income tax. You have been wonderful neighbors, they 'don't come bet- ter, always willing and ready to help, regardless of the wea- ther. Be it sickness or sadness, or a good night of fun, we could always Count on • you, Mary and Maurice, to help cheer everyone. "Now, as you gaze out that bay window and ponder back over the years, just see that Jimmie keeps the fat going on all the big steers. We will not bore you now with any more of this, but kindly accept this silver anniversary gift. Every- one agrees that this party has been fun, so let's all come back and celebrate the golden. one."
