To speak distinctly, and directly into the mouthpiece — A N eminent telephone man of 30 years' ex - tit perience says that this is the great need in telephoning. Over half the service difficulties would disappear if distinct and direct speak- ing were practised. To speak towards your telephone from a yard or so away, or to speak across it means bad transmission—often wrong numbers, mis- understanding and annoyance. q You'can help the service, avoid wrong numbers, misun- derstanding and annoyance, by speaking distinctly and directly into the mouthpiece, with the lips about half an inch from its rim.

THEIR OULTURE Let me say hero that it is innch better aot to buy cheap colleetions of bulbs, bolter .ney a little more and get named yeti, Yen usuall have a higher percentage of in- ferior bulbs in n collection. Never put gladioli near a• house, a wall, in a shaded eorner.or under eliade trees if you withthe beet rasulte. Out in the opeu stinshiue is its best situation. Good garden soil is just what is needed with well rotted manure Tho rows or trenches should be about nine inches deep and as long as re- quired, Then put in your trenches good fer- tilizer to the depth of three inches then three Indies of good Roil. With a fork or narrow rake, thoroughly mix the manure and soil Now put in the bulbs two rows in each trench alluut six inches apart press them well into the eoil and cover about one and a half inches deep. The next tronoh should be twenty inohes away, Tbis gives plenty of room for the soil from the trench. After the theme come up about six M(1685E01 the trench with the soil, water freely, after watering or rain rake in more of the soil until by the time the stalks are fifteen inithee high you have the ground level again. A [muffling among them particuleely after a rain is of great benefit. When outt- ing the flowers do not ant all the leavee leave some to support the growing bull, Always out the flowers when the Becloud bud is just opened. Renew the water each day witting off a email piece of the stern to rise freely. Treat ed in this way they will lest a week. Take up the bulba before the frosty weather sets in, atit otr thostallinbont three inches fron the bulb and store in a dry wed place free from frost. Bee that the bulbs do not got damp and sprout. With these direotions the bulbs ebould winter safely. 4 Good Idea A young calf with a Moo white faoe and a ribbon around its neck brings $161. At a aide of sows held at the farm of Mr Ira Marshall near Kidder' last Saturday, Mar. 24th, a calf, o week old, donated to the Patriotic Society by Mr Alfred Paul of Kirkton, brought the above sum, Pickett' were aohl for a draw on the calf and this, together with the priee brought in the ring, netted 3161. Tickets to the amount of $77 were soled Mr Donald McLean proved the luokily man to get the calf Master Rosa Marshall picked the ticket out ot the but Mr D McLean on it being announced that he was the owner of the calf, immediately, with true spertemanship, again donated the oalf to the Patriotic Fund and milted Mr P F Doupe to sell it, It was knocked clown to Mr Byron flicks of Centralia at 381 Mr Hicks at onoe asked the auctioneer to sell it Again, the prime& to go to the same fund as before.
