In. the Garden
Best Bloom
With most flowers the oftener
picked the better the bloom. This
rule certainly applies to those
planted especially for cutting, like
sweet peas, cosmos, zinnias, mari-
golds and similar long-stemmed,
blooming varieties. The surest
way to stop these from blooming
freely is to stop cutting and let
the blooms mature and go to seed.
Even if •one cannot use all the
blooms, with such thongs as sweet
peas, all flowers should be trim-
med off every day or so, and if
by chance one or two are over-
looked and starting going to seed,
remove the pods quickly.
Now this is not propaganda for
the flower seed trade but is sound
garden practice as anyone with ex-
perience will confirm. As a mat-
ter
atter of fact this saving of flower
and vegetable seeds from one's
garden is .not recommended. Pro-
duction of seed is a specialized
business for experts, with all
types, varieties and even sub -var-
ieties rigidly separated and grown
usually in straight rows. If not
kept well apart, the different
kinds and colors are certain to
get all nixed up and the result-
ing seed will be worthless.
Green Manure
As soon as one part of the vege-
table patch is used up (peas, spin-
ach. radish, etc., will soon be out
of the way and the ground clear),
experienced• gardeners make a
practice of .sowing some green
crop like rye, oats, buckwheat, etc.
This covers the ground, checks
weedy growth and when dog or
plowed in late in the Fall makes
an excellent fertilizer. In addi-
tion to enriching the soil, such
growth also adds essential humus.
EGG QUALITY
The maintenance of •high egg
quality is a problem which, every
year at this time, is forced on the
attention of producers, distribu-
tors, research workers and every-
one concerned with the poultry in-
dustry, ,Methods of retaining qual-
ity are continuously emphasized
and yet eggs of inferior quality
are sold in great numbers on the
summer markets. The high pro-
portion cf quality eggs which are
shipped by the more efficient pro-
ducers is ample evidence that the
difficulty can be solved by effici-
ent management, says A. S. John-
son, Poultry Division, Central Ex-
perimental Farm, Ottawa.
The problem of retaining the
original quality in eggs rests main-
ly with the primary producer. E;bs
should be gathered frequently, pre-
ferably three or four times a day,
and should be cooled immediately
in an egg room, cellar or ice well,
to a temperature as much below
Gil degrees as possible. An egg
cabinet with a burlap curtain soak -
e'1 in cold water will help to low-
ed the temperature. A plan of
such a cabinet is available from
the Information Service, Depart -
:n ,nt of Agriculture, Ottawa, on
request. Ask for Agricultural En-
gineering Circular No. 17. Eggs
kept under these conditions should
he marketed preferably twice a
week.
A great deal of labor may be
avoided by producing clean eggs.
Frequent changing of the •litter in
nests and its plentiful use is the
beat answer to such a problem.
Washed eggs are considered to be
ut�sa`'sfactory for storage purpos-
esd' On the other hand, eggs hav-
ing any dirt or stains are lowered
in grade resulting in smaller re-
turns.
Blood spots in eggs are another
factor which causes reduction of
profits. Information now available
inti cites that the tendency to pro-
duce .blood spots is inherited to a
cetlain degree and that strains can
be developed which are relatively
free from this character. This is
a job for the experienced breeder
or research worker. • Of similar
Importance are egg shell quality
and interior albumen' quality, beth
of which can be influenced by se-
lection.
Consumption of green feed tin
quantity by birds results in darker
colored yolks. Unless extreme,
this does not directly affect gnat-
Sty,
uatSty, but it does cause a. lowering
of grade due to a more prominent
yolk shadow in candling. There-
fore, it is advisable to restrict pas-
turing of birds to the afternoon.
The efficient producer is the one
who has these different Mali2tge-
tnent problems in hared• and knotirs

Hello Homemakers! There ought
to be a song about "Make it in, the
morning, serve' it in the evening,"
so we could enjoy the u ner af-
ternoons. Instead, many of us
dread cooking an evening meal or
worry about "the dinner" 'when
we are away for the day- What
we need to do most is plan ahead
and shop in advance as much as
possible. If there are guests for
dinner, plan a menu which will
leave you free to enjoy their com-
pany, one which can be served
simply.
For instance, if you are elected
to meet the bus and chauffeur the
Institute speaker to the meeting,
then bring her home for dinner,
leave everything ready: Chilled•
fruit juice with tiny cheesee..bis-
cuits, a casserole of chicken (pas-
try top) that reheats in 20 min-
utes, small peeled tomatoes rolled
in minced parsley and nuts, she11-
ed• peas you can cook in 12 min-
utes, fresh chilled berries and
cream with sugar cdbkiee for des -

May be the whole family are
going to the garden party where
they will have afternoon tea! With
this in mind, plan a light supper:
Cream of potato -cheese soup, to-
matoand cucumber sandwiches,
cherry up -side -down cake and tea.
There are occasions when you
drive to a meeting twenty miles or
so away and leave the _family to
put the finishing ;touches to their
own supper. For such meals, we
suggest sliced cold meat, tomato
jelly with lots of vegetables, mac-
aroni salad with minced green
onion, berry tarts and cold choco-
late milk.
You may be one of the many
homemakers who spend a good
deal of time outdoors helping with
the harvest or picking berries. If
unexpected -company arrives and
you have precooked a shank for
stew and there is not sufficient—
add a can, of =oxtail soup • or make
a few dumplings instead of pouring
in extra water. For extra dessert,
crumble graham crackers or 'rice
krispies among fresh berries. you
may have a tin of fruit loaf on the
shelf which you can serve in thin
buttered slices in :place of cake or
cookies.
For a hot summer afternoon,
prepare a tart drink in the morn-
ing by cooking rhubarb in Lots of
water. Sweeten as it cooks. Drain
and tint with red coloring. Chill
ready to serve.
Take a Tip
Food preparation to be done in
the mornings for evening meals:
1. Devil eggs.
2. Chill tin of salmon.
3. Combine meat loaf.
4, Scrub (never peel) vegetables
—store without water in the re-
frigerator.
5. Pick over fruit and spread ov-
er platter to store in refriger-
ator.
6. Make ice cream and turn con-
trol in refrigerator to normal
after it is frozen.
7. Prepare biscuits on baking
sheet ready for oven, but keep
cold until baked. Allow fifteen
minutes to bake at 425 degrees.
S. Make jelly mold of fruits.
9. Prepare soft custard for serv-
ing on steamed cake.
10. Make tart shells ready to be
filled with fresh jam.

Sensible Sunbathing
Every year about this time,thou-
sands of Canadians are soaking ,up
every available bit of sunshige iinl
the hope of acquiring "a healthy
coat of tan" a,,e soon as 1possible,
But tanning, it it is to be ,lone
safely., is a.• s1ov process. To avoid
painful and dangerous sunburn, eX
pose yourself for only a. .short time
at first, gradually lengthening the
periods as a tan is •acquired. Re-
member, sunburn, can be danger
;•
as well as painful. Do your
sunbathing sensibly.
Dangerous Recreation
Now 'that holiday time is here,
many people who spend most of
the year behind a desk will be
rlis'hing furiously about — hiking,.
golfing, swimming — crowding a
year's recreation into two weeks.
Many of them will get back to the
office .tired and worn and in need
of a week's rest. Do your vacation-
ing sensibly. Recreation, yes, but
within the limits of your body's
capacity. Every worker needs a
complete +holidiay at least once a
year. Don't fail to take time out
for a good, vacation this summer.
The Delinquency Problem
Most children at one time or an -
otter go through a period of cheat-
ing, lying or stealing. But they
throw it off soon like a mild case
of the measles, With others the
trouble seems to last and they be-
come known as "delinquents." It
is now believed that puni>j,iient
alone will not cure deli»uency.
Understanding, sympathy and a
feeling of •being loved and needed
are necessary to a child's develop-
ment. Delinquency in Canada is a
problem requiring .study and un-
derstanding. A happy home life as
often a safeguard against this trou-
ble.
Hot and Bothered
When you feel all hot and both-
ered .this summer why not try a
dish of delicious, creamy ice cream
to help you cool off. There's no-
thing much more tempting on a
hot day, and nutritionists tell us
that this milk product is loaded
with ingredients the body needs.
And ice cream won't harm the
teeth as will too mpch confection-
ery or soft drinks. Our bodies need
the right food supply winter and
summer. Make sure your hot wea-
ther diet is adequate and health-
ful. •
One Jump Ahead
Dentists tell us that the best way
to have healthy teeth is to stay
one jump ahead of tooth decay at
all times. The best way to do this
is to visit the dentist regularly—
twice a year is a good. interval.
He can attend to cavities while
they are still small and save you
a lot of grief later on. Brushing
the teeth is a good practice, but it
alone won't prevent tooth decay..
Cool, Clear Water
When the mercury climbs to the
tap of the thermometer tube the
body's intake of liquids mounts to
keep pace with fluids lost through
perspiration. Doctors agree that
it's hard to improve on pure water
as a cooling drink on hot days.
Sweetened drinks, such- as pop,
often tend to make us trotter and
stickier without doing much to re-
lieve our thirst. Make sure the
water you drink is pure. Don't take
Fhances with water from springs
or brooks. Pt is probably contamin-
ated.
Swat That Fly
Flies carry dangerous disease
germs. Protect your food' anddish-
es from flies by keeping all food
containers covered. Use screens
and nets to keep them out of the
house. Dogs, cats and other domes-
tic animals also carry dirt and dis-
ease. Keep them away from your
food supplies.
The Recreation Habit
Our pioneer ancestors spent
with an. onion, a stalk of celery,
and a sprig of .parsley. Cover.
When tender (about 50 minutes)
remove chicken and dice in small
pieces. (You should have about 31/2.
cups). Cook two ounces (three-
quarter cup) cut macaroni or wide
noodles in about 3% cups strain-
ed chicken broth until just tender.
Strain off broth. Melt 4 tablespoons
of butter in a large frying pan,
blend in 4 tablespoons. flour, stir-
ring until smooth. Gradually add
j1/2 cups of the broth., stirring un
til sauce is smooth and thick. Sea-
son with 11/2 teaspoons salt and 1/4
teaspoon pepper. If there is too
much, add canned chicken broth to
make up the difference. Open. one
"six -ounce can of muskrooms. Drain
and slice. ,Arrange chicken, maca-
roni, and mushrooms fn layers, in
eight individual casseroles. Pour
over sauce. Top with buttered
bread crumbs and a little grated
cheese. Bake in oven (300 degrees)
about 15 to 20 minutes, (Serves
eight).
Vanilla Ice Cream With Berries
Place 1 quart vanilla ice cream
in the centre of a chilled platter
or bowl, Surround With fresh rasp-
berries poached in syrup made
With. 1 cup sugar to 2 cups water.
Pour over all the juice of the chill-
ed berries and •sprinkle top with
very finely chapped Peel,

WE'VE HAD TO BUILD or enlarge 100 telephone
buildings in the last three years. We were
obliged to do this at a time when building costs
were about double pre-war costs. Yet, up to
now, despite rising costs on all sides there has
been -no increase in the basic telephone rates
established 22 years ago.
To meet unprecedented post-war demand
for more' telephones, our expansion and im-
provement of service have of necessity taken
place in a period of rapidly rising costs. Most
businesses have offset their higher costs by
higher prices for their products. We have not
yet done so.
You can be sure we will keep on doing our
