The Goderich Signal-Star, 1972-10-19, Page 31Two of the four candidates in
'the Huron riding in ,the up-
coming federal' election were on
the hot seat at South Duron
District High School last week.
• ; Huron M.P. Conservative sit-
ting member Robert McKinley
and Liberal candidate 'Charles
Thomas ' answered question's
°
from five students during, the
one hour session. Shirley Weary
of the NDP and Socialist Ed
Bain were unable to attend.
The first question was fired at
McKinley by Phyllis Taylor.
The student from Usborne
asked McKinley what he has
done for Huron, what, the Con-
servatives plan to dp better than
want. We•ve been toad Trudeau
doesn't listen, 1 find hint a man
who listens very well and likes
to listen to people w,ho know
what they're talking about. He's
a very receptive listener.`"
In his reply McKinley said,
"What's. wrong with the
economy? There's plenty wrong
when university graduates cant
find jobs. I've had persons with
BA's and graduate engineers -
come to me looking for em-
ployment • help."
In reply to a question from
Larry Hess concerning the
Canadian Radio Television
Comr}mission McKinley said he
was responsible for getting cable
- the—Libera s -ancwhy_Ontaris - to G'dderrefi
TV Fat l`'ellrfton.
Thomas •said he would like to
see radio, TV and cable under
one jurisdiction but could see
problems with cabl-ecasts
liecause of 'control of education
by the provinces.
He continued, "Enforcement
of the Canadian content law has
provided many more jobs for
Canadian talent."
Thomas said the question
regarding capital punishment
posed by John Cyeses was a dif-
ficult one. "I was against it at
one time, still am in some
degree. I think bank tellers

and I think he would rather see McKinley replied, "I voted
Stanfield as' Prime Minister." against the abolition of =capital
punishment. The law has not
been upheld as there has been
no hangings since 1963. I would
be in favour of something that
could be adhered to."
The final question from Tony

brought the following reply from
McKinley. "Our party would

Bulbs have always held a
unique place in the heart of gar-
deners, for out of the most inert -
looking unpromising structures,
in a comparatively short time
arise some of the world's most
beautiful flowers.
When we think of spring -
flowering bulbs our thoughts
first turn, naturally, to the flam=
boyant bedding type tulips, the
crisp ' cool daffodils, and the
crocuses, and hyacinths that are
imported by the million each
yeAr from Holland. Let us, this
week, look at some equally
beautiful but much lesser-
known t ulbs imported in .min"or
quantities from the same coun-
try - species that will give us
complete satisfaction even
though grown in a, clump of not
more than three or four bulbs.
There are a number of,tulips
that are unusually attractive
and interesting for their in-
dividual blooms and leaves.
Many of these are in the so-
called 'species tulip' class, In-
cluded among these are the hor-
ned tulip (Tulipa acuminata)
with wavy leaves and narrow
twisted petals; Red Riding
Hood, a Tulipa greigii ,hybrid
tulip with.vividr'ed flowers and
striking mottled foliage; and the
new fringed types which have
fringed edges to the petals and
flower very early "in the season.
Two low -growing species suited
to the rock garden--arethe vivid
purple Tulipa pulchella
violacea, and tie showy, shining
red , T,ulipa maximowiczii.
The long list of narcissus
cultivars contain many unusual
kinds that should be grown
more. This year try some bulbs
of • February Gold . and Peeping
Tom, hybrids of the
`cyclamineus' group that are not
more than a. foot high and yet
bear perfectly -formed miniature
trumpets. You may extend your
pleasure, by growing Thalia and
Tresemble, both cultivars in the'
`triandus' class _ noted par-
ticularly for their drooping
snow-white flowers. ' -
A clump of jonquils (Nar-
cissus jonquila) will also bring a
new joy to your garden. These
will bear many sweet -scented
single butter -yellow blooms on
single stems; Baby Moon is a
new cultivar with softer yellow
flowers.
For a plant that is bound to
excite discussion, get a few bulbs
of the Turkestan onion (Allium
karataviense). Its broad
metallic red -bordered leaves
form a cup in which nestles huge
globes of rosy -white flowers.
One of the most imposing
groups of bulbous plants is the
Foxtail lily (Eremurus.) This
groupinclude some very striking
tuberous plants that will grow
up . to six feet high with enor-
mous spikes of light pink bloom.
Of/these Eremurus robusta and
its hybrids are the easiest to
grow if given good drainage and
a covering of straw or leaves in
late ,November or early Decem-
ber t3 keep them from sprouting
too early in the spring. •
Equally imposing and much
more arresting is the crown im-
perial lily (Fritillaria im-
perialis) a bulbous plant that
bursts through the ground in
early spring and produces a
plant two or three feet tall with
very glossy green foliage, from
which arise thick stems with
clusters of flowers terminated by
a tuft of"green leaves. There are
four cultivars available, ranging
from golden -yellow to red and
orange -brown. Grow these in the
shade of shrubs and near the
home where they et sun from
thest side, e sma er
fritillaries such as the Snake's
head fritillary "(Fritillaria
meleagris$ are not commonly
grown and are now available in
many cultivars with distinctive
and charming flowers with
various shades of brown, yellow
and white.
Quite different in appearance
'to all the other bulbs mentioned
are the little winter aconites
with ' their tiny buttercup like
flowers above deeply -cut leaves.
These bulbs must not be
allowed to dry . out in' Storage.
Rather, the littlo-bulbs, which
look like pieces of putty, should
be slaked overnight if dry and
planted, 'right away the next
morning.

Bethlehem, Ornithogalurn Um-
bellatum) which has white stars
held six inches above the ar-
ching grassy leaves. Plant as few
as .5 half-dozen and in a few
years they will expand to a very
large colony.
As for all. garden plants,
prepare, the soil well by spading
it deeply and mixing in some
fine peat or similar humus along
with fertilizer such as 6-9-6 at
. the rate of five pounds per 100
square feet. Then plant the.
bulbs in clumps in various parts
of the• garden and around the
house.' Remember to,plant the
small ' ones that blom early
near the front or back door so
you will be able to see them
without walking through snow
or mud. Most of those men-
tioned are 'ideal near walks,
steps, next to stone walls or fen-
ces, in rock gardens and in
larger groups between and in
front of shrubs.
Premier Bill Davis is cam-
paigning for Robert Stanfield.
The Huron MP listed his ac-
complishments during his seven
years in Ottawa particularly his
position as chairman of the
agriculture caucus committee.
He said his committee made
the federal marketing bill much
better and he was very much
responsible for the continuation
of six day rural mail delivery.
In answer to the question of
Bill Davis campaigning for
Stanfield, McKinley said,
"that's his business, he can work
for whoever he wishes."
In. reply to what he would do
if elected, Charles Thomas
listed ' local development
programs as one of his first
• projects.
' To the students he said, "We
need the kind of employment for
people who have education: I'm'
sure most of you would like, to
come back to Huron to work af-
ter graduating from university."
"Huron's economy needs
balancing. Agriculture 'is impor-
tant, but° I believe a strong
federal voice would help
develoument growth," he added.

Thomas, said there should be

percent unemployment two per-
cent are ,heads of families, the
. others ore second and third
wage earners in the family. •
They can be more selective in

He continued, "This is a corn-
