Botanical Gardens HUMPTY DUMPTY 990 SIZE POTATO CHIPS 69' WE hOoRrivE THE NIGHT TO LIMIT OuANTItitS It was due to the dreams and persuasion of one man that Hamilton today has a garden empire on its doorstep. ' The Hon. Thomas Baker McQuesten was a man who conceived tranquil grandeur against an industrial backdrop. As provincial minister of highways in the 1930's he gave Ontario its modern highways system and many miles of natural beauty along the Niagara frontier. As a lawyer in the 1920's, his contagious enthusiasm flattened all civic opposition...and the Hamilton Board of Park Management bought 1,200 acres of land, including the scenic marshland of Cootes Paradise and adjacent wooded ravine land. This formed the nucleus of today's RBG. The jewel of the Gardens for most visitors in the Rock Garden created out of abandoned sand and gravel pits. After his first visit one travel writer described it as "a masterpiece of stone, trees, water and flowers; a Japanese print come to life. " He then added that "a first visit to the Rock Gardens on a sunny, summer day is about as easy to forget as opening night at La Scalar' This is the place to find such an unusual specimen as Bald Cypress—known to many as a native of Florida swamps. Floral displays begin in early April with the winter aconites and last until the chrysanthemums fade in late October.. The view of the secluded amphitheatre—completely hidden from traffic — can be enjoyed at leisure during refreshments at the stone and cedar Tea House. In contrast, the Spring Garden, on a peninsula off Highway 2, displays formal plantings in full view of passing motorists. Here can be found the finest iris collection in Canada with a display of some 250,000 blooms on any' fine day from June 5 through 15. Irises are followed in July by the Lily Show—the RBG has introduced six new hybrid lilies, Other collections in the Spring Garden include poppies, • d itkOLATE BARS 1211 JERS olLET SOAP 10i1 PANT!

Really a vegetable, but usually served as a fruit, rhubarb is often dubbed "pie plant" because of its popular use in pies, In selecting top quality rhubarb, food specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food suggest that fresh, small to medium stalks, still firm and brittle, are best, Wilted, droopy stalks will be Freezing asparagus successfully The season for fresh Ontario asparagus is short, generally lasting about one month from mid- May to mid-June, say food specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Enjoy it fresh while it lasts and freeze some for later use, Select only top quality asparagus for freezing. For tenderness, look for fresh firm stalks with close compact tips that are deep green or bluish green, Open tips indicate tough stalks or stalks held too long after cutting. Straight, medium to thick stalks are more tender than thin angular stalks or stalks with a large amount of white at the base, Use asparagus quickly, while freshness lasts. Prepare stalks for freezing in the same manner as for fresh use. Wash it well, and remove any loose scales. Break off the woody base (the stalk will snap where the tender part begins). Uniform lengths are best for even blanching and uniform cooking later. Blanch in boiling water, 3 minutes for stalks of 1/2 inch or less in diameter, and 4 minutes for larger stalks. Cool under cold running water, drain, and freeze immediately in carefully sealed moisture-proof packages. Asparagus is an excellent frozen vegetable. Thaw and use in a salad, or place frozen into a small amount of boiling salted water and cook covered for 3 to 5 minutes. This is about 1-3 the time required to cook fresh asparagus, so care is needed not to overcook. FLORIDA 36'. 66'A HOMEGROWN CANADA NO. ASPARAGUS CALIFORNIA VALENCIA 139's ORANGES stringy with poor flavor, For delicate flavor and tenderness, select young stems with immature leaves, Oversized, old stalks become tough and developa more acid flavor. Bright ruby-red color is another key to flavor. Keep rhubarb cold and humid. Store in the refrigerator in a tightly closed plastic bag to prevent wilting, and use it quickly. For rhubarb sauce, cook covered with sugar and a small amount of water or red wine for about 10 minutes, or bake covered at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Peeling the stalks is not necessary—the peel adds color and holds pieces together. Serve as a meat sauce with chicken,. turkey or pOrk, or as a fruit sauce for breakfasts and simple desserts. Layered with ice cream and strawberries, `rhubarb sauce makes a delicious parfait. For heartier appetites, bake rhubarb in traditional Pies, cobblers, and crisps, Hamilton's Royal In Hamilton, close to the Western tip of Lake Ontario, lie 2,000 acres of land, the site of the only Royal Botanical Gardens on the North and South American 'continents. The Hamilton Royal Botanical Gardens (RBG), granted the prefix "Royal" by decree of King George V in 1930, was one of the first important conservation areas in this part of Ontario. Today, whether you are a casual visitor who loves beauty but does not know an iris from a delphinium, or a dedicated gardener or botanist, there is something for you in the 200 acres under cultivation, For the wild-life enthusiast, the youngster or adult who wants to escape from civilization, there are 1800 acres of natural lands, inland lake and marsh. Here, along some parts of the 25 miles of trails through forest, ravines and meadows, a visitor might think himself a thousand miles from city life instead of just three miles (as the crow flies) from Hamilton's western entrance. I I I I I I I I I I delphinium, phlox and day lilies. On the Hamilton side of the Rock Garden, a side road leads to the 400-acre Arboretum, the site from mid-May to mid-June of one of the finest Mac collections in North America. Only two collections are larger—those at Rochester, NY, and Arnold Arboretum, Mass, Professional opinion, however, is that the RBG collection is the most scenic. Other special collections at the Arboretum include flowering cherries and crabapples, magnolias, rhododendrons, azalias and a group of trees with weeping form, For rose lovers there is the Centennial Rose Garden with 5,000 bushes representing some 250 varieties of hybrid tea, floribunda and grandiflora roses. Both the rose garden and trial garden for summer annuals (where 10,000 plants of 500 different varieties are grown) are reached from the Gardens' Headquarters. This building has become a focal point for visitors, A special attraction is the Floral Art Shop run by the Women's Committee where popular items for sale are the dried flower arrangements (made by members) and accessories for flower arranging and preserving. Other highlights of the Gardens are: + The Children's Garden and Children's House. During the past 25 years some 1,800 children have learned the art of gardening here. + The Nature Interpretive Centre- (near the Arboretum) where a naturalist is on duty to help visitors to the marshland bordering Cootes Paradise. + The Hedge Test Garden in the Arboretum, Here are more than 116 deciduous and evergreen hedge varieties planted so that home and professional gardeners can see for themselves which hedge is best for specific purposes. The nearby Ground Cover Collection is for use in the same way. Major highways of southern Ontario provide easy access to the Royal Botanical Gardens. Visitors from either Toronto or Niagara Falls can reach the Gardens by taking the Queen Elizabeth Way to the Highway 403 intersection at Burlington. Follow Highway 403 toward Hamilton, exiting as marked at Highway 6, Trillium signs direct visitors to the Rock Garden. Visitors using Highway 401 should leave it at Highway 6 and drive south for 18 miles, exiting for Burlington and Highway 2. (before Highway 403 is reached.) Again, watch for-the trillium signs, 04,;;IttlArkisiysi MOST BRIDES,10111010 elpfekrii..,THINK OP THAfe Ala.& *TAR, WYMAA.P Cketi SALES & SERVICE i"We SetWee What We Sell" 267 VICTORIA ST, HWY.
