In 1942 there were 122,000 acres grown which was the second lowest potato acreage for Ontario that has ever been recorded during the past sixty years.' In 1941., the acreage was 120,000, but the annual acreages for 1932-1941 period were 147,844, while in the period of 1922-1931 the annual acreage was 164,084 acres. Potato yields per acre were also lower last year, and there were heavy losses from leafhopper and blight injury. One of the principal reasons given for. reduction in acreage this year is the difference in price between certified seed and ordinary table stock. While both are difficult to obtain, growers feel that -ceiling prices should have been established for certified seed, Shortages of labour on farms and dif- ficulty in obtaining labour-saving mac- hinery are also factors affecting max- imum production. Very few crops produce as much food ,nutriments per acre as do potat- oes, and owing to transportation dif- ficulties, it is logical that every effort be made to produce maximum amounts of food close to consuming centres. While demands for potatoes may be expected to reach a maximum high next winter and spying, a reduction in the Ontario potato crop will tend to complicate food and transportation difficulties at that time Therefore it is important that in- creased production per acre be secured this year. Best care possible should be given the Ontario potato crop in 1943 by way _of using sufficient amounts and proper kinds of fertilizers giving proper cultivation arid protect- ing the growing plants against insects and disease. - To avoid loss from the destructive disease known as Bacterial Ring Rot, it is important to disinfect all second-hand bags arid machinery before using for seed potatoes.

To prevent rhubarb pies from boil- ing over, use strips of wet cheese- cloth or butter-wrapping cut in. 2- inch widths. Press the one edge to rim of pie and let other side fall over fluted pie crust. Overlap ends well. 2. Other variations of rhubarb des- serts; Upside-down Cake, Rhubarb Betty, Rhubarb Steamed Pudding, Deep. Rhubarb - pie, Rhtibarb Sponge, *. THE QUESTION BQx Mrs, C. N. asks: My sealers are not air tight although I have Used new • rubber and metal rings. They leak when turned upside down. Answer; Testing sealers by filling - them with water is not always a true test, If your fruit has kept in these jars before and they are not chipped or cracked, we believe they should be satisfactory if you use new rings, Some jars are off level and it has been suggested that two ;gibber rings might help, It is important to use force to seal the jars, * * Anne Allan invites you to write to her c/o The Advance-Times.

I didn't want to get out of bed, The bawling of the old red cow made me come to the realization how- ever that the cows were waiting to be fed, watered and milked, The toys and the books on the sofa seemed al- most as oppressive as the dirty dishes on the table., It was warm outside but the house seemed dead and life- less 'and cold, I made myself a bit of tea that seemed weak ,and weedy and a few irregularly hacked-off slices of bread filled out my meal. I could riot help but think of Mrs. Phil mak,: ing nice, warm porridge and Patricia Ann after dallying with the dish, sud- denly spurting to a finish and triumph- antly holding up the bowl and saying, "See Daddy, I finished it all up nice." At noon there was no Mrs. Phil busy with the dinner dishes. There was no golden haired youngster at the window, nose smudged against the glass and waving frantically to at- tract attention as soon as I started up the laneway. Patricia Ann wasn't there to beg to be allowed to feed Collie. No one wanted me to take time out to go out and inspect the' baby chickens in the florooder house. The radio sounded that night as if it were booming out in an empty house. There was no one crawling up 'on my knee to get_ her head in the road of the most interesting story in the paper. No one wanted me to tell her what the pictures mean't._ • There was no one to crow over the comics and no one to he wrapped into a pair of pyjamas and tucked into bed. And so it went until the night they came home. Mrs. Phil was tired of travelling and glad to get home. Patricia Ann walk- ed in with a little purse in hand and solemnly made an inspection of her books and toys, Then she came back to where I was sitting in the chair and like a grown-up young woman in place of a three and a half year old said, "Gosh, Daddy but I'm certainly glad to see you again." I was dumbfounded . , and yes quite happy. PET OR PEST? Now that spring house cleaning has been completed, housewives will' be par'ticularily conscious of new cob- webs which appear. Cob-webs in houses are made by two species of spiders according to T. 13, Kurata, the spider expert of the Royal Ont- ario Museum. Although "both kinds make an irregular tangled silken web in corners and crevices of buildings, one species is usually much more plentiful indoors and can well claim to be the Domestic Spider. Its body, which is slightly less than g inch long, varies in coloration from a dirty white, with a few dark spots, to almost black. It wraps' its eggs in a dense silken case and hangs it from the There are so many varieties of onions that is possible to have an early, medium and a late crop in the Victory garden. There are also white, yellow and red varieties of onions available, Onions are also recom- mended for the . Victory garden be- cause they do not take up much space. Onions are grown from seeds, sets and transplants, also -called seedlings. Onions require a fine, fertile soil which is well drained. They must be kept from from the encroachment of weeds by frequent but shallow cultivation. The weeds between the plants should he pulled by hand. Unless onion seeds are planted ant early in April in northerly latitudes it is advisable to grow, onions from, sets or transplants. Seeds should be planted out as early as the soil can LA .1•01110.11. PLANT SEE,DLINS INCHES DEEP be worked. They are planted in drills- 1/ inch deep, and three to four seeds per inch, as illustrated in the accomp- anying Garden-Graph. The drills are usually from 12 to 18 inches apart, de- pending upon the type of cultivation used. The young plants are thinned to stand three to four inches apart. The first thinnings may be used as green onions for the table and the second thinnings can be,hoiled. Onion sets are planted three tcigfour inches apart, as illustrated, then cover- ed with one inch of soil, The sets will mature earlier, than plants grown from .seed. In the,early' spring your onion plants can be purchased from seed stores. In replanting, as illustrated, they are set four inches apart and two inches deep in the soil.

This sudden realization can come in various ways. Mine hap- pened this week, — Mrs. Phil went away, for a few days to see her folks and she took Patricia Ann with her. The first day it didn't matter very much because I was so busy with seeing that they got away alright and that our ewes were looked after with their Tate lambs that I went into the house got myself a bite of supper and tumbled into bed in an exhausted sort of sleep.

My first impluse was to chide Mrs. Phil a bit about not setting the clock but then the silence of the house made me nalice that I was all alone.
