destroys
barn
Fire early Thursday morning
destroyed a Walton -arca barn and
nearly spread to nearby buildings
before Blyth and District Depart.
ment was able to bring it under
control.
Larry Walsh, Blyth village clerk,
wasdriving past thefarm of Harold
McCallum, east of Walton on
County Road 25 shortly after
midnight When he noticed smoke
coming out of the side of the barn.
He drove into the McCallum lane,
woke the family and the Blyth
brigade was called.
Flames threatened tosprcad to a
nearby driving shed from which
they could have spread throughout
asericsofbuildings. "1t was pretty
scary," Mrs. McCallum said. She
estimated another two to five
minutes and the driving shed
night have caught fire. As it was
the beam over the door was
charred.
Lost in the barn was a large truck
and a grain dryer as well as many
other smaller items. The deep well
and pressure system for the farm
was located in the barn, so one of
the first tasks in the days after the
fire was to drill a new well.
The McCailums had no ready
estimateofloss but said it would be
higher than the insurance cover-
age on the building and contents.
Morris
taxpayers
get break
Despite higher levies for Huron
County and the Huron County
Board of Education, taxpayers in
Morris township will see no
incrcasein their mill rate this year.
Clerk -Treasurer Nancy Michie
explained there were two reasons
the township was able to absorb the
higher costs without raising the
mill rate. This past year the
township recorded a $16,000 sur-
plus compared toaS26,000deficita
year ago. in addition, in order to
payoff the new township complex
last year the mill rate had been
raised. With the building paid for
by the time it opened, this money
became available for other uses.
Total residential and farm still
rate will be202.78 exactly the same
as last year. Of that 38.45 mills will
go to the county, 51.51 to township
uses, 64.35 to public elementary
and 48.47 to secondary school.
Roman Catholic Separate School
supporters will pay an elementary
mill rate of 66.74. (The mill rate for
separate school supporters will
actually decrease .14 stills).
The commercial mill rate will be
238.53 made up of 45.23 mills to the
county, 60.57 to municipal uses,
75.71 to elementary public, and
57.02 to secondary schools.
The mill rate means that if a
residential house is assessed at
$3,000, the tax will be S608.34 for
the public school supporter and
5615.51 for the separate school
supporter. A commercial esta-
blishment valued at $8,000 will
have a tax of 51,622,24 for public
school supporter or 51,641.36 for a
separate school supporter.
in the budget, adopted by the
council April 15, the township will
spend a total of 51,170,336. Aside
from the 5515,000 that goes to
senior levels of government, the
township will spend 5306,300 in
general road costs. In addition
590,000 will be spent on road
construction and equipment and
545,000 on the Concession 9
bridge.
Fire protection will cost 520,500,
not counting 57,000 in capital costs
to the Wingham Area Fire Board.
Waste disposal costs will be
520,000 (60 per cent of which will
be paid by Brussels).
Recreation will cost 512,000 and
drainage maintenance 513,000. A
working capital reserve of 545,000
will be set aside.

Public schools a priority, board says
BY RHEA HAMILTON SEEGER
The Huron Board of Education
reaffirmed its position that public
schools be given full support and
that independent schools be offer-
ed co-operation in using facilities
already available in the public
sector, at its April meeting.
This motion was in response to
the Report of the Commission on
Private Schools in Ontario by
Bernard J. Shapiro, released Inst
October. Board members were
given a 46 -page extract of the
report. Robert Alien, Director of
Education, brought out four of the
report's 61 recommendations
which include: that private schools
be renamed independent and that
after meeting specific conditions,
McKillop taxpayers face
5% tax increase for 1986
McKillop township ratepayers
face a five per cent increase In the
millrate as a result of the budget
approved by township council at its
April meeting.
Total mill rate for the public
school supporters for farm and
residential taxes will be 258.437
and 259.477 for Roman Cathlic
Separate School supporters. The
township millrate will make up
85.527 mills of that while the
county levy will be 43.698; Huron
Board of Education elementary
levy, 55.432 and secondary school
levy will be 55.432 mills. The
Huron -Perth Roman Catholic Sep-
arate School Board's elementary
levy will cost 74.82 mills.
The township's rate for commer-
cial and business will be 100.62
mills. The county rate will be
51.409 mills, elementary public
school 86.8 and secondary 65.214

elementary rate is 88,024 for a total
mill rate for separate school

ters of 305,267.
in other business at the April
meeting council did not consent to
the land severence requested by
John DcKroon on Conc. 6, south
half of lot 6. The severance would
have divided off a 3.5 acre parcel

operation. Council recommended
that a distance of1100 feet be
required between the barn and the

can enter into associations with
local school boards to share In
funding; teachers in independent
schools be required to hold specific
qualifications; and that all schools
meet certain curriculum require-
ments.
The first motion on the floor was
to accept the spirit of the Shapiro
report as published. It was defeat-
ed with a majority, The second
motion was to reaffirm the board's
original submission to the commis-
sion.
MaryAnnc Dempsy was con-
cerned that not enough board
members had read tho report to
fully understand the intent of the
report's recommendations.
Tony McQuall requested Mr.
Allen to comment on the matter.
"When everything is said and
done i am squarely behind the
public school system", said Mr.
Allen. He continued to emphasize
his original belief that the public
school system should not be
further fragmented,
In the board's submission to the
commission last ycaritwaspointcd.
out that the public schooling has
been one of the major positive
factors in culturally unifying an
arca where so many different
cultures have come to settle.
The report went on to say that the
board feared that any changc'from
the present system would weaken
the community bonds.
But the bottom line is dollars.
There arc already loo many vacant
pupil places in the secondary
school level. Since funding is on a
per student basis this places a
further drain on the ratepayers to
make up the loss.
In August 1983 the Huron
County Board of Education ap-
peared before the Ontario Munici-
pal Board to oppose a land
severance for a private school. The
argument used then was a practical
one based on lost revenues due to
student reduction,

The Huron County levy will see

figured In. The actual amount of
the levy over last year is 14.78 per
cent.
Reeve Albert Wasson said the
county's decision to go ahead with
both the museum and Huronview
expansion project this year jacked
up the county rate. The county had
already committed itself to the
museum and many felt that with
senior level grants available this
year, the Huronvicw project
should also be undertaken this
year.
The increase could have been
worse, hesaid, ifthecouncil hadn't
voted not to put money into reserve
funds for hospital construction,
etc. this year.
Meanwhile the education levy
ended up looking small by compar-
ison. The amount of the increase is
9.76 percent but with the increased
assessment in the village it works
out to an increase of only 5,55 per
cent:

Alternatives
for peace
There was once a great Canadian with agreat dream for
peace. Looking at the actions internationally in the last few
weeks one could only wish his dream had come true.
Lester B. Pearson won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in
getting a United Nations force to police the peace in the Suez
Crisis in 1956, a force that became a model for later United •
Nations forces in the Congo and Cypress. But Pearson had a
bigger dream. He wanted to see a permanent United Nations
force put in place to act in the world the way a police force acts in
our national lite.
The world needs some kind of international force to stop the
kind of vigilante justice the United States has taken to try to
impose its idea of justice.
Imagine living in a town where some people, angered
because some local youths were breaking the law and getting
tywaywith it, felt they had the right to take the law into their own
hands and mete out punishment to the alleged culprits!
If American reaction to Col. Khadafy were just the
overreaction of President Ronald Reagan taking his old cowboy
motion picture parts to heart, it would be frightening enough
but Americans love their president for his "damn the
torpedoes" approach. In a sampling of U.S. editorial opinion to
the bombing ofTripoli only two newspapers in 14 were negative
to the American action. Most of theeditorials took the approach
of the Wall Street Journal that indicated the United States must
be the policeman of the world: "Making those kinds of
decisions is part of an American president's job. When they arc
shirked, the world becomes more dangerous, not less."
Listening to the American media, one would think the U.S.
was the sole target of international terrorism. But as
international columnist Gwynne Dyer documents, of the 928
people killed by terrorist acts in the world last year, only 23 were
U.S. citizens. Not one of the 800 terrorists incidents took place
on American soil. Americans are bit players in terrorism.
Imagine if everyone affected took law into their own hands.
Canada, for instance, in one incident, the bombing of the Air
India flight, lost far more citizens than the U.S. did. Imagine if
our government decided it must strike out militarily to bomb
some centre of rebellion in the Punjab. Imagine if the Italians,
Greeks, Turks, and all the other victims of terrorists acts,
decided they had to take their own action and sent bombers and
gunboatscrisscrossing the world to mete out their own brand of
justice.
The tragedy of the situation is that by taking the law into their
own hands, by justifying the killing of innocent Libyans
because innocent Americans have been killed, the Americans
may feel proud of themselves but they have lowered their
moral standing for the rest of the world. They have legitimized
the terrorists claims that the U.S. knows no bounds but the
limits of its own military might.
But until we come up with some sort of international body to
take on issues like terrorism, the major powers are going to
exercise the right of might and try to do it themselves.
Oh to have a Lester Pearson here to day to put Canada in the
forefront of trying to find a peaceful, international solution.
Fairness for all
Many a government has gotten itself into trouble over the
issue of "fairness" and the Ontario Liberal government of
David Pearson may be the next one.
The government is trying to be fair to all people in the
province by opposing the right of doctors to bill patients for
more than the Ontario Health Insurance fee because it worries
that there will be two systems of health care, one for the people
who can't afford to pay extra and one for those who can pay
doctors whatever they want. The dispute has brewed for
months and is slowly erroding the confidence and goodwill
people have in the government as they tire of the bickering.
Agriculture Minister Jaek Riddell is taking needed action to
save farmland from being paved over near the big cities of the
province but in the namcof fairness the same rules will be
imposed in Huron Countywhcre a ban on rural severenees may
see our rural population continue to drop, endangering the
economic structure of our entire community.
The ministry of the Environment has brought in strict
regulations about the operation of waste disposal sites. Local
councillors feel that with the small amounts ()I' garbage to be
disposed of locally, burning may be the way of disposal least
harmful mntul environmentally. But provincial laws must be applied
equally across the province and the laws that apply in
\lississougaor Windsor are also applied to Morris township or
Blyth.
Ontario isa huge province, full ofdi''etseproblems. Trying to
apply one seta rules toe%erybody eau rause a government real
headaches.

otherwise known as the Round

can partake of these deliberations
we will report the activities from

MONDAY: With the Stanley Cup

hockey manages to keep popping
up in the topic of discussion at
Mabel's. People weren't discuss-

though. They were too numb with
surprise.
Julia Flint was disgusted with a
hockey fight she saw the other
night while she was flipping
channels trying to bring in Falcon
Crest or one of those educational
shows like that.
"it's a funny thing that if people
did that kind of thing out on the
street, we'd arrest them, but when
they do it in a hockey arena we pay
them hundreds of thousands of
dollars and televise it coast to

should apply the same laws on the

pays the biggest shot. Also Maria,
if you thought that Mr. Workman
should resign why didyou not say it
to his face. You were at the
meeting.
You can be very popular as a
council member or recreation ifyou
say yes to everything people want
but just question anyone's project
and oh boy,are you a son of a gun.
Mr. Workman and Mr. Lowe
before him spent a lot of time on
Recreation, so I would like to thank
them and the council members who
are trying toget money coming into
the town instead of paying out all
the time.
Keep up the good work and we
will be sure to go ahead.

Blyth to review building permit regulations
Regulations regarding what
building. projects should and
shouldn't require purchase of a
building permit will be revamped
in the coming month, Blyth village
council decided April 8.
Following questions over the
building permit issue at the March
meeting of council, EugeneMc-
Adam, building inspector for the
village appeared at council.
Councillor Tom Cronin asked
how the value of the building
permit is determined, Mr. Mc-
Adam said that the value is put on
the permit by the person making
out the application and that at
times he docs question the a-
mount. There was one house
constructed in the village last year
that he wasn't happy with the value
stated but when he questioned it,
he was told that the labour was
being donatcd, he said.
Going to a .fee based on the
square footage of the building
would be one way to control the
vaiuestatcdon the permit, he said.
Then if labour was donated there
wouldn't be any difference than if
labour was paid for.
Clerk Larry Walsh asked what
required a permit and what didn't.
Mr. McAdam said he couldn't sec
requiring a permit for roofing
repairs. If there is no structural
change in the building a permit
shouldn't be needed, he felt.
Asked if he felt recreation rooms
should be included, he said that
they should but someone else
pointed out that redoing a kitchen
can also be an expensive project.
Some municipalities put a dollar
value on the need for permits, he
said, with projects under 51500 or
52000 not requiring permits. It was
pointed out that carpeting could be
over that figure easily. Mr.
McAdam didn't feel carpeting or
siding should be included except
for brick siding which requires a
footing to be poured to hold the
brick.
Someone else asked about
demolition controls without a
property standards by-law, If there
is a by-law council can refuse to
grant a demolition permit for a
building that is habitable, Blyth
does not have such a by-law.
Council agreed to have Mr.
McAdam and Clerk Larry Walsh
work on draft revisions of the
building by-law and have them for
council's consideration at the May
13 meeting.
Council will look again at
developing a parking lot on land
owned by the Blyth Festival behind
the stores on the cast side of Queen
between Dinsley and King. The
Festival, which is holding the land
for future expansion of its rehear-
sal facility (the former Doherty
garage), had agreed last year to
such a use until such time as It was

Special visitors to Belgrave on the weekend were these Junior choir members from Northlea United

Young Toronto choir
visits Belgrave church
Knox United Church Belgrave,
was privileged to have 16 junior
choir members with their director,
Professor William Andrews, gui-
tarists: Harold Bratten Rod Fuller-
ton and Neill McRae of Northlea
United Church, Leaside (Toronto)
as guests at the Children's Service
on Sunday morning, April 20,
Professor Andrews, organist,
Mrs. George Procter, pianist and
the guitarists presented a prelude
of sacred music. The service was
opened with the Call to Worship
Psalm 100: A Hymn of Praise and
Choral Opening: Praise to the
Lord.
Mark Coultes gave the Prayer of
Invocation.
Following a hymn, Spirituals:
"Jacob's Ladder" and "Peace
Like a River" were sung with piano
accompaniment. Erin Morris ex-
plained the spirituals were sung by
the slaves as they worked. These
songs reflected the faith of the
slaves.
The Scipture reading, Luke 10:
verses 25.37, "You go, then and do
the same" was read by Tim
Coultes, and "The Good Samari-
tan" was told by the choir in song.
Neill McRae led in prayer.
"God is a Surprise" was the
anthem rendered by the combined
Belgrave and Northlea junior
choirs.
Rev. John G. Roberts welcomed
the many guests. He then spoke
briefly on the theme, "Reading the
Bible". Words are meaningless if
the reader doesn't grasp their
meaning. ,.
He showed a luggage label with
details of the Roberts' emigration
from Wales to Canada in 1967; a
1956 theatre ticket to a London
Paladium and a 1934 newspaper
with the record of a death and
funeral. All three articles were
preserved for sentimental reasons.
sons.
Of all possessions one's Bible
takes preference in value. The
valueof the theatre tickets given in
shillings and the newspaper report
printed in Welsh language, had no
meaningful value to the choir
, 4-H club learns
skills for job hunt
members.
Each person must interpret in
order to understand; each must
have a true translation. The
Hebrew Bible was translated to the
English language. The Bible re-
lates readings of another country
and another culture. It must be
read with understanding to give
value. All Christians need the
Bible.
Preceding the singing of "l'lI Be
a Sunbeam", "Amazing Grace"
and "Alleluia", Frances Curry,
Ben Barnes and Pauline Dekker
gave short stories of each song
respectively: each verse of "l'lI Be
a Sunbeam" is followed by a
chorus of prayer. A seventeen year
old sailor gave himself to Jesus
during a storm at sea in the song
"Amazing Grace"; praise, love,
redemption and scrvice arc sup-
ported in "Alleluia
Following the singing of "A
Prayer of Blessing", by the choir
and the Postlude, refreshments
and a social period were enjoyed In
the church schoolroom.
The large congregation was a
token of the appreciation of the
work undertaken by all involved in
the inspirational service.

Hot times at West Wawanosh council
While all municipal councils
have their hot times at meetings
from time to time, few were as liot
as the April meeting of West
Wawanosh council held April 1 at
the township garage.
The council was about an hour
into its meeting when smoke was
seen from the nearby mobile home
ofAlexTilbrook. Road Superin-
tendent George Humphrey went to
investigate and discovered the
trailerwas in flames, The Lucknow
Fire Department was called but in
the meantime the strong winds
caused sparks to ignite the old
township hall beside the trailer.
Mr. Tilbrook had to be rescued
from Ills trailer.
The Lucknow Fire Department
had trouble getting enough pres-
sure in its fire hoses and before it
could get into action, the old hall
had been burned to the ground.
Recovered from the ashes was
the old steel safe that contained

From the Minister's Study
Dealing with the hard times
BY PASTORDOUGZEIIR
BRUSSELS MENNONITE
FELLOWSHIP
We do not have to look very far
today to see men and women and
young people who have lost their
sense of self-esteem and personal
worth.. The signs and statistics of
alienation used to be far away in the
concrete jungles of the big cities.
They were rarely found or experi-
enced in the serene countryside of
the rural community. It was far
enough away at least, or so
occasional, that we could hide our
heads and say it docs not affect me
and so it docs not matter.
A daily newspaper some time
ago cited the plight of the
unemployed during the past few
years. When the unemployment
rate goes up one per cent the
attempted suicides rise by five per
cent, the admissions to mental
institutions rise six per cent, child
and spouse abuse increase by three
tofivcpercent and crime increases
by four to six per cent.
The unemployed feel lonely and
misunderstood, They feel alienat-
ed because in our society our sense
of worth is lied very closely to our
work. Without a job, unable to
contribute, individuals lose their
self esteem and sense of value.
But we know that it is not just the
unemployed. Others, too, have
some of those same feelings of
worthlessness and poor self-
esteem. i would venture that we all
experience those feelings at some-
time or another, if not regularly.
The chronic symptoms of de-
pression, constant anxiety, and
e•pression,constantanxiety,and
exhaustion usually come upon us
gradually. Rarely does it happen
overnight. Individuals who are
emotional powder kcgs, a bundle
of nerves or seem to have
smoldering fuses, all suffer from a
progressive disorder. We seldom
'blowup' just out of the blue. There
is a history behind the moment of
outrage that is evident in a temper
tantrum, abusive assault or self-
destruction. Deadlines, criticism
and minor irritations are usually
built one upon the other until the
individual threads of annoyance
become a cord of emotional
strangulation. It is a chronic
condition,
Will we stick our heads in the
sand? Will we sit Idly by and wait
for the next explosion? Is the only
thing we can do is to try to pick up
the shattered pieces? A mess of
questions, yes, and the answers
arc not easy. How many messed up
lives will it take before we get angry
enough with the waste of all that
human potential and do some-
thing?
Perhaps you have heard of the
twin boys raised by an alcoholic
father. Years later a psychologist
studying,thc effect of alcoholic

Knowing peace of God a great life preserver
Continued from page 18
parents on children, found one boy
to be a sharp successful individual
who never took a drink. The other
was a helpless drunk like his
father. What made the difference?
The answer they gave was identi-
cal: 'What else could you expect
when you had a father like mine?'
Two sets of circumstances that
are alike and yet two very different
results. Most of us arc good at
rationalizing our problems by
blaming them on our circumstan-
ces. But it is not necessarily or only
circumstances that arc the deter-
mining factor. How we respond to
circumstances makes a big differ-
ence. It is like the half empty glass
or tank that could also be viewed as
half full. An individual's perspec-
tive or attitude can make a very
significant impact.
One person's anger results in a
loss of life while another person's
anger motivates them to put into
action steps that might help to
diffuse the pressure, bring some
relief or release of the building up
internal tension.
One Old Testament put it this
way, 'When my life was ebbing
away 1 remembered you, Lord'.
The answer to burnout is a right
response to circumstances. And
knowing that God is the controller
of every circumstance is a great
help.
We know that pearls come from
oysters. Each pearl, like chronic
stress, got there as the result of a
petty irritation, a grain of sand.
The pearl does not develop over
night. It is a long slow process of
consistent and constant response
to the petty irritation. The deter-
mining factor is that the oyster
docs something constructive about
the irritation.
Every circumstance is an oppor-
tunity. To seize the opportunity in a
constructive way is the challenge
that is always before us. Of course
we will not always make wise
choices or the best choices, but we
can consistently seta pattern or
general direction in the way that we
respond to the irritations of our •

Bright and Beautiful" was sung
followed by prayerby Evelyn Mair.
Business was presided over by
Kathleen Semple and several
dinners were discussed including
the Maytime Supper on May 28.

tary's report was read by Elunid

had been donated to the group for
the knitting of pneumonia vests for

Theatre Review
Exciting discovery of oil told on stage
BYKEITHROULSTON each other after the oil boom. c
There's a fascinating story to be There's a touchingly tragic
told about the discovery of oil in
Canada and Oil! Oil I OW which
appeared at Blyth Memorial Hall
Friday night manages to capture
part of the excitement.
The play with music was per-
formed by Victoria Playhouse
Petrolia, the new company found-
ed by Uwe Meyer who spent four
summers at the Blyth Sumpter
Festival as production manager.
Like many young companies it
means the founder has a lot of work
to do and Meyer wrote the play,
built the set and designed the
ighting as well as assembling the
et for this touring production.
And, as often happens when too
few people have todo too much, the
csults can sometimes show.
But the play has many high
moments, particularly in the se-
ond act when telling history gives
vv to having fun, Martin Julien,
orinstancc, has a hilarious turn as
he butler who knows everything
hen Meyer lampoons the preten-
ions that the newly rich people of
Pctrolla tookon in an effort to outdo
s

w
w
moment when death strikes a
young husband just after he has
-struck it rich in the oil patch.
Few of us In Ontario know that
the discovery ofoil at Oil Springs in
the 1860's was the first oil well In
the world. The first discovery was
when someone trying to dig a water
well found the well filled with
oil. (Good water became more
valuable than oil in Lambton
county during the oil boom).
The difficulty with telling such
stories on stage is the limitations of
the stage. It's a huge story that
almost demands a film treatment if
the Canadian film industry ever
gets itsact together. There was thc
day in 1867 for instance, when fire
started inoncofthe oil refineries in
Petrolia and quickly spread
through the entire oil field. Ten
acres of ground, ditches, rigs and
oil tanks finally were ablaze in an
inferno that lasted for two weeks.
When it was over, the ground was
charred two feet deep. It's a story
that would make a wide-screen
spectacular but can hardly be
Festival wants old farming photos
Arc there any old photos of your
family farm hidden in your attic?
The Visual Arts Committee of the
Blyth Festival is sponsoring a
special exhibition of old photo-
graphs ofarca farms, taken prior to
1930.
These old photos will be treated
with great cart. A reproduction
blow-up will be made, 8" x 10", for
each of the photos selected by the
Committee, and these rcproduc-
ions will be hung at the Blyth
Festival Gallery over the summer.
This special exhibition is designed
to complement the production of
Another Season's Promise by
Anne Chislett and Keith Roulston
which opens the Blyth Festival on
June 20, and the exhibition of
the
Blyth
photographs and artifacts showing

The play was perforated by a
talented cast of four taking on
many different parts in an effort to
tell the history of the oil boom, Ian
MacDonald not only perforated
well but provided lively music to
add spark to the story. Norah
Kennedy and Wendy Pawson
played both female and stale roles
well. All have both the conic touch
and strong singing voices.

Home show set to go
Everything is set to go for Seaforth's
Second Annual Home and Garden Show,
which will get underway Friday, April 25 and
run through Sunday, April 27 at the
Community Centres. It is sponsored by the
Seaforth Minor Ball Association and has
come together through the efforts of a
number of local people, including recreation
director Marty Bedard, and minor ball
representatives Marg Dale and John
Lansink,
The show, which came together last year as
the result of the effort between Bryan Peters,
the town's former recreation director, Bob
Fisher, head of Seaforth's Business Improve-
ment Association (BIA) and Marg Dale, has
already fostered more enthusiasm this year.
Deemed a success in its first year, with 27
displays from area merchants, as well as an
opportunity for visitors to purchase arts and
crafts made by various community groups,
this year's show promises to be even a bigger
and better event, with over30 exhibits in the
offing.
Exhibits are varied and encompass such
things as decorating and landscaping,
farming, automotives, renovations and
sports, so there is truly something for
everyone.
The Seaforth Health Care Facility (Manor)
and Flan Breen will have a number of booths
set up in the Lobby and will offer visitors the
chance to buya variety of local arts and crafts,
In addition to the displays the show will
offer a number of special attractions for
children and adults alike.
On Saturday afternoon Aces High, a bike
duo from London, will perform a number of
mmp jumps, stunts, quick turns and fancy
riding on their BMX bikes. That show will be
held in the community hall adjacent to the
rink surface and will cost 50 cents to view. All
monies raised will be donated toward the
local boyscouting operation, which is spon-
soring the show. Show times are 1:30, 3:30
and 5:30 p.m. Each show will last a half hour.

Slow-growing shrubs useful
Remember the large mock -orange and
forsythia grandmother used to plant.
Link homes and back splits have changed
that.
Today many city lots are much too small
for such large shrubs to be used effectively,
says borticulurist Glen Lumis of the Univer-
sity of Guelph's horticultural science
department. •
Small shrubs often grow more slowly than
large ones. This is an asset since slower -
growing shrubs don't overgrow their intend-
ed space so quickly.
Don't be fooled by a plant's size when you
buy it. That small potted shrub may soon
become too large for the space you allotted.
When planning your landscape, use
shrubs to provide balance, continuity, tex-
tural contrast and flower color display.
Shrubs, like trees, can provide interest
throughout the year.
It's a good idea to discuss your plans with
your local garden centre. They will be able
to recommend additional or alternative
shrubs to fit your needs. Also inquire about
the hardiness of the plant you intend to use.
The following list includes a selection of
shrubs divided into two size categories:
Shrubs one to two metres tall: Abelialeaf;
Alpine Current; Boxwood (evergreen);
Chokeberry; Cinquefoil; Deutzia;
Euonymous (evergreen); Flowering-
Quince;

Lawn furniture may need repair
With springtime just around the corner,
now is the time to get backyard equipment
In shape. After the long winter, It would be
wise to see how well lawn and patio furniture
weathered the storm and to make any
necessary repairs
One of the best ways to repair furniture
made from wood or metal is with epoxy.
However, up until now, most epoxies have
been difficult to work with and messy to use.
New from the Devcon Corporation this
season is an epoxy in putty form that makes
backyard furniture repairs a snap.
Easy to use
Un -Reel, a fast -curing epoxy putty on a
handy pocket sized spool, features Devcon's
5 -Minute Epoxy Putty in a new easy-to-use
form. Simply tear or cut the needed amount
from the spoof, blend together between
fingertips and apply to a clean dry surface.
I3oth resin and hardener are layered
together on the spool to make application
easy, quick and clean.
Devcon 5 -Minute Epoxy Putty is extreme-
ly effective for filling gaps, plugging holes
and making durable repairs to lawn fur-
niture made from wood, metal and other
materials. The fast -bonding putty sets In
five minutes and reaches full strength in two
hours. Cured material can then be drilled,
tapped, sanded or painted.
The lightweight, compact Un -Reel spool
can easily fit into a shirt pocket or tool box to
be readily on hand for other quick, emergen-
cy repairs. Devcon's Un -Reel is available at
most hardware and home center stores.

CONSTRUCTION UNDERWAY — Thls spring marked the start of a
slight surge In construction activity In Seaforth, as at ,east four new
homes will be constructed this year, and possibly as many as a
dozen may go up, Construction on some, like thls house on Church
Street, Is already underway, Raft's photo
New home construction on rise
While it hardly constitutes a building
boom, the number of new homes going up in
the tgwn of Seaforth Is on the rise from all
indications.
With four confirmed new homes, two of
which are under construction, and a possi-
bility of eight or 10 more this year, it looks like
19H6 will be "a pretty good year," for home
construction in town, said PUC Manager Tom
Phillips.
Signs of construction will be evident on
Church Street, Chalk Street, Ord Street and
Railway Street for sure, with a number of
other projects In the works, said Mr. Phillips.
"If we get 10 or 12 (new homes), that's
good, Last year we had three or four •• and
that was even good. The previous couple of
years, there was nothing going on at all,"
said Mr. Phillips.
New home construction in E mondvilte has
also been on an upswing, said Mr. Phillips,
noting the Doig Subdivision "really took
off," last year.
The increased construction activity in the
area is a good indicator the economy is
picking up locally, Mr. Phillips suggested,
"That's nice to sec," he said.
Despite the low level of construction
activity in recent years, Mr. Phillips said
there is not a large number of unutilized
building lots in town.
"We don't really have that many Tots
available In town, but it's surprising to see
how many there are," he said.
Cleaning may save refinishing
Furniture may not need refinishing when
it looks dull and dingy.
First try a thorough cleaning with a
household solvent such as mineral spirits or
naphtha. Use plenty of dry, clean cloths to
rub in the solvent and wipe off loosened soil..
When no more soil appears, the surface is
ready for an application of a good furniture
polish.
This treatment is often successful, and
saves expensive refinishing.

Small trees fit small lots
If a Targe tree won't (it your lot, lake heart.
There are a number of smaller trees which
can fulfill functional and aesthetic roles, says
Ilorticulturist Glen Lands at the University o'
Guelph's department of horticultural
science.
First of all, a small tree may be more In
scale with your house design.
And a smaller tree will be loss intrusive to
neighbors as it grows.
A small tree may also fit In better with your
family's needs.
For exmnple, Jim want to plant a garden

When deciding which small tree fits your

Air-conditioning tips
Modern room air conditioners are more
energy-efficient with higher G.G.R. ratings
than ever before. But even if your air condi-
tioner is an older model, there are still some
ways that you can help it to operate more
energy -efficiently.
dere are some air conditioner energy-
saving tips from home economists that can
help you get the most from your air condi-
tioner dollar:
__ Improve your home's insulation (seal
doors, windows, and close fireplace flue).
_ Clean or replace filters frequently.
Draw drapes or blinds on the sunny side
of the house, and don't block the air condi-
, dotter with drapes or an object in front of the
unit.
Try to schedule laundering and cooking
for the cooler hours, and remember to use
your range and bathroom exhaust fan to
draw heat and moisture outside. Be sure to
turn the exhaust fans off after they've done,
the job.
Avoid frequent opening of doors and
keep windows closed while the air condi-
tioner is operating.

Building permits often
required for minor projects
Planning some changes around the house?
A new porch, a shed to hold all that stuff
you don't have room for in the basement, or
maybe just putting in some new windows?
Better call Herman VanWieren first.
Mr, VanWieren is the building inspector
for Seaforth, Ifensall, Bayfield, and the
townships of Osborne, Tuckersmith and
Stanley. According to Mr. VanWieren,
building permits are often required not just
for new buildings or major external renova-
tions, but for smaller additions as well.
The addition of any rooms or porches to a
home automatically requires a -permit, as
does the construction of a storage shed over
100 square feet.
Enlargement of windows or doors also falls
under the building code, however doors and
windows can be made smaller without need of
a permit.
Surprisingly enough, a permit is not
needed to build a swimming pool, even an
inground model, but the accompanying
fence, required by law cannot be constructed
without a permit.
Even indoor changes, particularly those
involving the moving of interior partitions,
require n permit
"A lot of things fall under the zoning
bylaw, rather than the building code," said
Mr. VanWieren. Changes that could other-
wise be made under the buildin(+, code, may
not be allowed because they would result in a
zoning violation, he explained. For instance,
if a porch or garage addition were to make the
homeowners yard too small to comply with
area zoning, it would not be allowed,
"What I advise people to do, is to call us if
they are doing anything, All it takes is a
phone call and we can often tell them right
away 'Yes, you need a permit, or no, you
don't need one," he said.
The number to call for people within the
above-mentioned munici ralities is 235.2317,
or contact the clerk's office.
Designation of historical homes
must be instigated by homeowner
More and more people are becoming
interested in preserving the past. And
homeowners are no acception,
Seaforth, with its older and unique homes,
has already had approximately 20 homes
designated as historically significant. And
while interest in designating has died off
somewhat now, the town, according to
Deputy -clerk Luanne Phair, is hoping more
people will take the option of designating.
in order to have a home or property
designated the owner must first fill out an
application from the Town Hall. In that
application they must detail the history of the
home as well as the features that make it
unique.
"The ministry wants a very detailed
statement for designation," said Miss Phair.
Once that is completed the application form is
reviewed by the Local Architectural Conser-
vation Advisory Committee (IACAC), who
decide whether or not the home is worthy of
designation. "In the past they've had people
tell them a farmhouse was designated
Container gardening
The essence of gardening can be captured
in containers, Container gardening opens the
opportunityof creating gardens where plants
don't ordinarily flourish. With containers,
balconies and patios of apartments, condo-
miniums, or townhomes sparkle with colorful
blooms and usable, edible produce. Even
homes with yards are enhanced by the beauty
of filled containers on patios, at the front door
or on the deck. Containers offer gardeners a
range of new possibilities.
Conventional gardens are at the mercy of
the weather. But most containers can be
moved to shelter whenever adverse weather
threatens susceptible plants. Wheels under
large containers allow for easy movement. If
shade from buildings or trees is a problem,
containers can be shifted to sunnier locations.
The fun of gardening should be available to
everyone and containers make it possible. No
heavy digging and little or no weeding is
required. light, soilless planting mixes keep
container weights manageable. Container
gardens can be brought within easy reach of a
tired back, a wheelchair, or a landless
ganlener. if you've never gardened in
containers before, you'll be pleased with the
results and delighted with how easy it is,
The National Garden Bureau suggests
using containers in the following ways:
Plant a window box with annuals
.Add herbs to a kitchen window box
.Decorate a balcony or deck - from simple to
ornate
Create a small-scale vegetable garden
.Place containers of scented flowers on each
side of an entrance
because it was the first one in the county.
They want to know that, and that it had six
windows..."
When a building is deemed worthy, notice
of designation is placed in the paper for three
consecutive wees, there is then an appeal
period and finally a notification prepared on
the owner and historical significance of the
building.
From there a by-law is drafted, and
hopefully passed by council, Finally a plaque
staling designation is given to the home-
owner to display on the home.
Once the house has been designated then
the owner is eligible for brick grants from the
provincial government's Building Rehabilita-
tion and Improvement campaign.
"So, if a homeowner is fixing up or
painting in the documented historical colors
or restoring the original wood siding - or
whatever, then they're eligible for up to 50
percent of the cost to a maximum of $2,000,"
said Miss Phair,

Variegated plants add color to 'all -green scene'
Lush green houseplants are a delight to
the eye, but sometimes they can become
monotonous. One way to add a touch of color
to the "all-greon scene" is with variegated
plants. Their leaves can be just as vibrant
and colorful as flowering plants.
Variegated plants such as the silver table
fern (species Pteris) and the multicolored
croton are particularly decorative during
fall and winter, when many flowering
houseplants are dormant.
These and other colorful bushes, trees and
vines are also easier to grow and maintain
than their flowering counterparts. They
need less light and will tolerate lower room
temperatures.
Consider the pin stripe plant (Calathea or-
nata). Its bright -green oval leaves are vein-
ed with pink and white stripes. For added in-
terest, the undersides of the leaves are
maroon or burgundy.

Itis an elegant focal point in a display of
dark -green philodendrons and scheffleras.
The surrounding foliage helps create the
high humidity it needs. The plant seldom
grows more than 18 inches tall.
Croton is another eye catcher when tuck-
ed in among a mass of greenery. Its
leathery leaves are dappled with splotches
of yellow, copper, pink, red, orange, brown
or ivory. In fact, no two leaves are alike on
the same plant.
Crotons grow fast, often as much as 12 in-
ches a year. Top leaves should be pruned to
keep the plant a manageable size.
Colorful plants for table tops and
bookshelves include the pilea "Slyer Tree"
and the coleus, a member of the mint
family.
"Silver Tree" has lightly -quilted leaves
marked with a central band of silver, and
bronze -green edges. Coleus varieties pre-
sent an amazing range of color combina-
tions and leaf shapes, including some with
ruffled edges. Top leaves should be pinched
off frequently to encourage dense growth.
The dwarf silver table fern (Pteris "Vic-
toriae") is another choice candidate for
table -top display. Each slender frond has a
silver stripe running down the center. It
thrives in low light.
Variegated Swedish Ivy is neither Swedish
nor ivy. It originated in Australia and is
another member of the mint family. Its
light -green leaves are streaked with cream.
This plant is excellent for hanging baskets.
Most people are familiar with the dark -
green, broad -leafed dieffenbachia,
sometimes call "dumb cane." The leaves of
some species are veined and mottled with
white.
One variety, "Rudolph Roehrs," has pale
gold -green leaves with white splotches and
dark -green edges and ribs. Dleffenbachias
are tolerant of low light.
These variegated plants are all relatively
problemfree. Cool room temperatures (65
degrees - 70 degree F.) will help bring out
the best of variegated colorations.
It's important to fertilize variegated
plants cautiously; too much feeding can
cause the color -splashed leaves to turn com-
pletely green.
To promote steady leaf growth without
sacrificing colour, fertilize once every two
months with a mild, nitrogen -based nutrient
such as Knox Unflavored Gelatine. Univer-
sity research has concluded that unflavored
gelatine, commonly used in recipes, helps
variegated plants become fuller.
To apply, dissolve an envelope of gelatine
with one cup of hot tap water in a pitcher or
large mixing bowl. Add three cups of cold
water to make a quart. Water the plants
every two months with this mixture.
Decorating with variegated plants is a lit-
tle like decorating with fabrics. Too many
patterns clash. But a few multi -colored
plants interspersed with all -green varieties
can achieve a harmonious balance.
Outdoor furniture
•
requires care
Outdoor furniture is carefully designed to
withstand five ormore years of rugged use:
welded frames, baked -on plastic finish,
vinyl with mildew inhibitors and ultraviolet
stabilizers, tough acrylic tabletops that
withstand up to 20 times the impact of glass.
A little care will ensure that your outdoor
furniture lasts longer and looks better, ad-
vise the experts at a casual furniture
manufacturer,
The No. 1 rule is to avoid abrasive
cleansers on all parts of your furniture. In-
stead, use a mild soap or detergent on a
regular basis to avoid buildup and remove
grease and stains. Periodic waxing of fur-
niture frames, or use of commercially
prepared protectants, will help prevent
stains from sun -tan lotions, etc., and will

Home upgrading an inexpensive alternative
Because of difficult economic times more
and more people are upgrading existing
homes instead of moving to more expensive
ones.
More popular improvements include
patios, upper decks, cantilevered decks
over sloping terrain, water fountains,
garden furniture and all the other outdoor
amenities that make for gracious outdoor
living.
Decks and patios are great for outdoor
eating events, dancing and parties,
Randy Bates, owner of a landscape firm,
says "business is the best it's ever been for
us in the older home field. People can't af-
ford the bucks for a new home."
Money is definitely tight.
Which means the home owner is more
likely to build his own patio or deck with pro-
fessional plans and a little advice.
The cost of outdoor improvements
depends on how grandiose the project,
whether a contractor does it all or the home
owner helps or the home owner does the
complete job.
Plans for wood deck or concrete -based
patio arrangements can be purchased from
landscape designers and materials purchas-
ed from lumber -yards and retail outlets.
And it is not impossible for the home
owner to complete a modest outdoor living
design over a period of several weekends
with diligent, sustained effort, providing he
or she has a sensible plan.
The cost of such an effort might be kept
under $1,000,
But an ornate development with features
including lattice roofs, redwood decking,
furniture, water fountain, shrubbery, trees,
fencing requiring substantial materials and
the talent and labor of professional land-
scape architects and craftsmen could cost in
the range of $35,000.
Concrete patios also vary in price, depen-
ding on materials used and the size of the
project.
Total cost rests on several factors. Will it
Include landscaping, lights and other
special features? Price depends, too, on
materials used, redwood being more expen-
sive than some other woods.
Do-it-yourselfers can bring those costs
down considerably, as much as 40 per cent
of what a landscaping firm must charge for
labor and expertise, says Charlie Turner,
manager of a landscape firm.
Residents who are thinking about deck
projects on their own would do well to pur-
chase plans from an architect or landscap-
ing firm, says landscape firm manager Vi-

Of course, the home owner with an artistic
eye, a knowledge of plants and a knack for
building might produce an outdoor living ar-
rangement with a charming effect at a
trememdous savings.
There are two reasons home owners think
about creating outdoor living space — to
make life more comfortable and to enhance
the value of the home, "a real asset when
the time comes to sell," says Akers.
Water is an increasingly popular accomn-
paniment to decks and patios, with the trend
toward Jacuzzis and self-contained water-
falls and fountains.
For those desiring elaborate decks, they
may choose to have them contoured, rather
than square, and built on several levels with
step approaches rather than rising only a
few inches off the ground. For home owners
who want to use water sparingly and grass
sparsely, rock -scoping is the answer.
Tom Cullhngton, a landscape architect,
says the creation of outdoor living en-
vironments is an art, each project to be
tailored to the particular physical re-
quirements of tine residence for the best
effect.
"Much depends, too," he said, "on the
home owner's personal taste, whether he
wants a closed roof, one with a skylight, a
glass -enclosed patio, lattice roof, fenced
deck and so forth..
"In any case, the deck should be designed
to fit the back. We just don't build a square
deck unless that's what the home owner
wants."
Hide problems
under covers
When planning your landscape, consider
using ground covers in those areas where
grass is difficult to grow — areas that are
heavily shaded or steeply sloped.
"Ground covers are available in a variety
of colors and textures and many bear
flowers and fruit," says Horticulturist Anna
Ballantyne of the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food's Consumer Informa-
tion Centre in Toronto.
When choosing a ground cover, keep in
mind the fact that many ground covers re-
quire at least a season -and -a -half before
they become established,
During this initial period, it is important
to keep the area free of weeds by hoeing or
hand weeding.
For banks or sloping areas, choose plants
that grow close to the ground and root easi-
ly; the mat of roots that forms helps control
erosion along banks and sloping areas.
Ground covers perform best in fertile,
well -drained soil.
And since ground covers are permanent
plantings, it is advisable to prepare the soil
before planting.
Ground covers generally fall into three
categories: herbaceous perennials, annuals
and woody ground covers.
Examples of perennial ground covers
are: Bugleweed (Ajuga reptans), Crown
vetch (Coronilla veru), Candytuft (Iberis
sempervirens) and Mosspink Phlox (Phlox
subulata ).
Annual ground covers include: begonia,
impatiens, petunia, portulaca and sweet
alyssum.
Some woody ground covers are:
Bea rberry (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi),
Skogholm Cotoneaster (Cotoneaster dam-
mer( "skogholm"), Bigleaf Wintercreeper
(Euonymus fortune( vegetus), English and
Baltic Ivy (Hedera helix and H. Helix
baltica), Juniper Glauca (Juniperus
horizontalis-var. "Glauca") and Periwinkle
(Vince minor). -
This is only a partial list of the wide range
of ground covers that are available to the
homeowner. Check with your garden centre
for more information.

make cleaning your furniture even easier.
Despite the baked -on plastic finishes on
aluminum furniture, scratches and chips
are unavoidable. Most casual fur-
nituremakers have touch-up paint available
for perfect match -up in handy spray cans.
If you decide to touchup your furniture,
be sure to thoroughly wash and dry any
areas to be painted (use mild detergent).
Then lightly sand the furniture with a fine
grade of sandpaper, until it feels smooth to
the touch. Brush off any particles of sand
and spray according to the directions on the
can of paint
Straps and webbing will stay more supple
if you use a vinyl cleaner regularly. But oc-
casionally , a strap will be burned or cut and
will require replacement. Most manufac-
turers recommend having a professional
replace the type of straps that are made
with continuous lacing. Other styles are
easy to re -wrap, however, and straps are
usually available from the dealer or
manufacturer. Instruction pamphlets are
generally Included with replacement
materials. If not, ask your salesperson for a
copy.
The only tool needed to replace webbing
and straps Is a small hammer. You will also
need a pail of hot water. Dunk each strap in-
to the hot water to heat it, then stretch and
weave it into place. The small rivets which
attach the straps can be lightly tapped into
the holes in the frame.
Tabletops should be cleaned just as other
parts of your outdoor furniture. A regular
cleaning with mild soap or detergent will
prevent buildup of grease and stains.

Cold frame advantageous
A cold frame is really nothing more than a
simple, low, unheated greenhouse.
"But a cold frame can be used to advan-
tage for quite a number of gardening pur-
poses," says Horticulturist Bob Hamersmh
of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and
Food's Horticultural Research Institute of
Ontario, Vineland.
In its simplest form a cold frame is a glass
or plastic -covered frame which traps the
sun's warmth and shelters plants from
winds and other weather extremes.
Using a cold frame, the beginning and the
end of the growing season may be extended
by several weeks; tender plants stored in-
side a cold frame have a better chance to
survive the winter too.
Seedlings started indoors may be
"hardened off" or gradually conditioned to
outdoor temperatures by placing the seedl-
ings in the cold frame for a few weeks.
The frame gives sufficient protection
against cool spring temperatures from
about three weeks before planting.
Moving plants outside early, also
alleviates space problems inside the home
or greenhouse.
When sown directly in a cold frame, early
crops such as lettuce, spinach, radishes and
hardy annual flowers rely only on the sun as
a source of heat.
The frame retains some of the heat
through the night — thus preventing frost
damage.
Throughout the spring and early sumer,
many crops may be started in the cold
frame, giving them a considerable head
start over similar crops sown directly to the
garden.
Dull blades
Before that first spring mowing, make
sure your lawn mower is in good repair and
that the blades are sharp and adjusted to the
recommended spring mowing height of four
cm. to five cm., says Turf Researcher Nan-
cy Pierce of the University of Guelph's hor-
ticultural science department.
You can easily check the mowing height of
your mower by measuring on a flat solid
surface the distance to the edge of the
bedknlfe on reel -type mowers, or to the cut-
ting edge of the blades on rotary -type
In autumn, half-hardy perennials,
chrysanthemums, and other plants that do
not overwinter well, may be stored in the
cold frame and covered with leaf mulch.
A properly -constructed cold frame should
be no more than two metres wide for easy
access from both sides, Flamersma says.
Slope the top and position the cold frame
toward the south for maximum sun
exposure.
Standard height for frame boxes is 30 cm.
to 40 cm. at the back sloping down to 15 on.
to 20 cm. high at the front of the frame.
Various materials may be used on the top
of the cold frame.
Glass storm windows may be used. Or try

The frame is usually made of wood for

Storm windows, hinged at the back may
be easily lifted from the front to ventilate

By attaching hooks and eyes to the front of
the frame, the storm window sashes may be

You may set up the cold fraine on top of
the soil (for portability) or you may sink the
frame about 20cm. to 25 cm. into the ground.
Plants may be grown in containers and
then set in the frame, or sown directly into
prepared soil inside the cold frame
"But remember that a cold frame is not a
true greenhouse; there is still a danger of
frost on very cold spring nights unless a
piece of cardboard or an old rug is placed
over the frame," he says.

mowers.
You can sharpen the blades on rotary -type
mowers yourself; the blades on reel -type
mowers should be sharpened at a shop.
In the spring when the soil is generally
wet, dull blades can actually pull entire
grass plants out of the ground, creating bare
patches that could be invaded by weeds.,
Dull blades also tear and bruise grass
blades, giving the whole lawn a brownish
hue and creating better opportunities for
disease organisms to attack.
Helpful garden tips
IIOLDING POWER
Light, sandy soils need watering more than
twice as often as clay soils. Increase the
water -holding capacity in lighter soils by
adding organic material, says Horticulturist
Anna Ballantyne of the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food's Consumer Informa-
tion Centre, Toronto. Organic materials help
soil overcome the need for such frequent
watering.
g
BOOST FERTILITY
increase soil fertility by adding commercial
fertilizers as well as manure, says Horti-
culturist Anna Ballantyne of the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and Food's Con-
sumer Information Centre, Toronto. Each
spring, use a complete fertilizer such' as
5.10.10 at a rate of 10 kilograms per 100
square metres on Tight, sandy soils or 4-12-8
at a rate of five kg per 100 square metres on
heavier soils.
TURF TIPS
Apply lawn seed in calm weather. Divide
seed and sow half in one direction and the
other half at right angles to it. After seeding,
rake the soil lightly to just cover the seed.
Rake in one direction only, says Horticulturist
Anna Ballantyne of the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food's Consumer Infor-
mation Centre, Toronto. This prevents
pulling the seed into channels or ridges.
BE PREPARED
To prepare a Magnolia tree seed for
planting, remove the fleshy seed coat and
cover the seeds with moist peat moss for 90
days at five degrees Celsius (41 degrees
Fahrenheit) and then they can be directly
planted outside.

Bugs could kill lawns but are hard to detect
Bugs could be at the root of your lawn's
problems, says pest Management Specialist
Kevin Ker of the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food's plant industry bran-
ch, Vineland Station, Ont.
'Insects and diseases can rapidly
transform an attractive lawn into an
eyesore, producing large areas of dead and
dying grass. Worst of all, Insects can be dif-
• ficult to detect in a lawn; he said.
The most common insects are the grubs of
June beetles and European chafers can
appear from early May through late June.
Grubs are root feeders that cause leaves
and stems of grasses to first wilt, then turn
yellow and die in patches,

Best control is achieved by applying an in-
secticide after heavy adult flights are
observed. Treatments can be applied after
yellowing and wilting of the turf has oc-
curred
Damage by the sod webworm first ap-
pears as scattered irregular patches of
brown turf.
The dead grass pulls away easily in
clumps, revealing masses of silk with soil
particles and excrement from the cater-
pillar embedded in the silk web.
Often, webworm damage does not appear
until lute summer — yet early- season con-
trol Is the best tactic.
The presence of the small tan moths dur-
ing mowing in late May to early June can in-
dicate infestation.
Insecticides applied during heavy adult
flights on warm evenings in May to Joe can
be very effective.
The hairy chinch bug has been the
primary pest of home lawns and cul be con-
' trolled easily if insecticides are applied pro-
perly and at the correct time.
Overwintering adults congregate in pro-
tected areas such as [lower beds, hedgerows
and near foundations.
Peak egg -laying occurs in early June with
hatching shortly thereafter.
Apply insecticides after most of the eggs
have hatched because at this stage, the
grubs are most vulnerable.
'An easy method of detecting chinch bugs
is to remove the top and bottom of a large
container, such as a coffee tin, and force this
into the turf in the arca where early damage
has occurred.
Fill the can with water and rake the turf
with your fingers and watch for nymphs and
adults to float to the surface. •
Before applying any pesticides for control
of lawn pests, be sure to read the label;
pesticides work efficiently when applied
safely and at the proper time.
Pruning is a science and an art
Proper pruning can be the best thing for
your trees and shrubs; improper pruning
can be the worst thing for them.
"Pruning is both an art and a science,"
says Horticulturist Ruth Friendship of the
Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food's
rural organizations and services branch. ._
The "artist" In you will prune to retain or
restore the natural form of the plant.
The "scientist" In you will prune to
remove dead and/or diseased branches,
stimulate Bower and fruit development,
control the plant's overall size, and to im-
prove the plant's structural strength, health
and vigor.
There is no ideal time to prune all plants.
"The correct time to prune depends on the
flowering season of the species, its growth
habit and your specific reason for pruning,"
she says.
Generally, late winter or early spring Is
the best time to prune deciduous trees, some

vines, roses and certain shrubs; at these
tunes of the year the plants have no leaves
and that makes it easier to decide where to
prune.
At these times, there is also less danger of
damaging the bark.
Fruit -bearing trees should be pruned just
after they have leafed out.
On the other hand, spring flowering trees
and shrubs such as forsythia should be prun-
ed after flowering. (This is because these
plants produce their flower buds on the
growth of the previous season).
By pruning at this time, you won't destroy
prospective blooms and it allows the plant
sufficient time and space to grow and pro-
duce flower buds for next year.
Shrubs that flower on the current year's
wood, such as hydrangea, should be pruned
before they flower.
Late fall to early winter is the poorest
time to prune because the wounds may not
close during the winter months.
Winter pruning is also uncomfortable for
you — so you are less likely to take the time
to prune with care.
Trees that "bleed" profusely such as
maple, birch, walnut, and yellow -woods
should only be pruned when they are in full
leaf because the leaves will be using the sap
—thereby reducing the "bleeding" and pro-
moting rapid healing.
Pruning while the trees are in leaf also
makes it easier to see which branches are
dead or lacking vigor.
But avoid pruning in late summer
because this could stimulate growth which
won't be able to "harden off" before the cold
winter temperatures strike.
As with any gardening task, it is impor-
tant to use suitable tools and equipment.
Special equipment and expertise are
needed to prune large trees so you might be
wise to hire a professional for these large
jobs.
But small trees can easily be pruned.
A sharp, properly set saw is required for
the larger cuts and will do a better job for
any size of cut than even the best pruning
shears.
A pruning saw should be used wherever
possible.
Hand pruners should be light, sharp, pro-
perly set and of good quality.
Long -handled pruners can speed a prun-
ing job but they tend to leave stubs so use
these selectively.
"The choice of tool is a matter of personal
preference, but remember to keep your
tools sharp and properly adjusted to make
clean, flush cuts," she says.
Pruning paint, which was once a common
recommendation, has been found to be of no
benefit to the process of wound closure.
Therefore it is not necessary to use prun-
ing paint — except for cosmetic reasons. If
you do decide to paint the wound, use a thin
coat of some commercial material prepared
for this purpose.
Do not use house paints.
Apply the wound paint only to the wound;
painting the bark all around the trunk can
kill the tree.
All pruning cuts must be made so natural
processes will heal the cut surfaces com-
pletely and not contribute to the death of the
bud immediately below the cut.
"There is a slightly -raised ridge of bark
on a branch called the branch collar which
is the tissue separating the branch from the
main stem. This can be used as your jauide
to proper pruning," she says.
Place your saw or shears in front of the
ridge and cut downward and slightly
outward,
This results in removal of the branch
without injury to the main stem.
By leaving the "collar", there Is less
chance of infection.
"Flush cutting" or cutting through the
branch collar makes a larger wound than
neccessary and slows down wound closure.
This type of cut often results when chain
saws are used for pruning.
Prune deciduous trees to have a more or
less "open" centre.
Branches that grow inwards and those
that are in contact — rubbing and wearing
each other — should be removed.
This allows the tree to grow to the outside
and upwards, where it will be exposed to the
maximum amount of light.
Remove watersprouts and suckers to en-
courage the growth outward and upwards. '
Always consider the manner of growth
and climatic conditions for best pruning
results.
Because few evergreens produce new
buds on wood more than two years old,
prune evergreens mainly on new wood or on
the previous year's wood, early in the grow-
ing season up to midsummer.
Allow enough time for the new growth to
"harden off" before winter sets in.
Spruce, pine and' fir should be pruned
shortly after the new growth has begun in
the spring. And restrict your pruning to the
new growth only.
Prune junipers by cutting back the branch
to a healthy lateral branch.
Pyramidal or central trunk evergreen
trees should be pruned only to remove dead
or overlapping branches.
'frees with double leader branches should
be pruned to one terminal leader, while the
tree is young.
Do not prune the terminal leader of an
evergreen tree unless the leader has been
damaged.
' (If it roust be removed, it should be
replaced by a lateral trained to grow
upwards).

Weed out your lawn problems
In established lawns, most weeds can be
controlled by following good lawn care
practices such as fertilizing, top -dressing,
mowing, watering, aerifying and reseeding
sparse areas,
That's because a dense, healthy turf
competes so strongly for water, light and
nutrients that weed seedlings can't survive.
But if your lawn is not yet well established,
a little advance planning can help you keep
most lawn weeds under control, says Pest
Management Specialist Kevin Ker of the
Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food's
plant industry branch, Vineland Station, Ont.
Lawn weeds can be divided into two major
groups: the broad-leaved weeds such as
dandlions, plantain, chickweed and clover;
and the grassy weeds like crabgrass,
quackgrass and creeping bent grass.
For broad-leaved weeds, the most com-
monly used herbicide for lawns is 2,4-D.
Recycle the
Discover the ultimate bargain in blooms
this spring. Select a flower pot dahlia for
indoors, and when summer comes, plant
outside for blooms all summer.
Greenhouse growers have recently turned
to dahlias for new interest in spring -flowering
- houseplants that can be transplanted to the
garden. The carefully selected varieties
feature compactness in the container, as well
as the home garden setting.
Notable among new dahlia introductions is
Dahl Face', available as blooming plants this
spring across the country. This outstanding
new dahlia sports vividly colored blooms from
its container debut through the end of its
summer outdoor season. No staking is
necessary for 'Dahl Face' in the garden.
The dahlia is a carefree garden plant.
Cultural requirements consist of full day sun
and well drained but fertile garden soilM1
dahlias prosper when they are fertilized,
particularly at planting time, and specifically
with food rich in organic material, such as
well -rotted cow manure.
The adaptable dahlia makes even a better
investment if its tubers are dug up in the fall
before a frost. The new seed -grown varieties
have spent the summer making tubers, which
can be rested throughout the winter months,
then replanted in the spring.
Since the advent of the flowering gift plant,
gardeners have been making regular treks
with their purchase to the garden. The
problems have been the selection of what to
recycle for success. Today's dahlias are the
best choice yet.
It works well on dandelions and plantain
but less effectively on chickweed and ground
ivy..
The best general weed killer for turf is a
three-way mixture of 2,4-D, mecoprop and
dicaniba.
For best results, follow directions on the
label and be aware of othe lawn plants when
treating; some susceptible woody plants may
absorb the herbicides.
Reduce the potential of spray drift and
damage to susceptible plants nearby by
applying pesticides with a low-pressure
sprayer.

Plants should complement
There's more to selecting houseplants
than picking out one you like, paying for it
and taking it home. A plant should comple-
ment the space it fills.
Before shopping for houseplants, study
the total room environment, expecially
natural Tight conditions, and measure the
spaces where the plants will be positioned.
The amount of sunlight a plant receives
will determine its success or failure in your
home. That's why it's important to evaluate
the available light.
If the sun shines directly through a south -
facing window for at least four hours a day,
you have bright light. Cactuses, scheffleras,
and most flowering plants need bright Tight.
Medium light is the indirect sun that
filters through windows that face east or
west. Plants suitable for medium light in-
clude rubber trees, weeping figs and
Swedish ivy.
[.ow light comes from a north window and
is just bright enough to cast a shadow.
Parlor palms, Chinese evergreens and
many species of ferns thrive in low light.
Other factors to consider in plant selection
are the size of the plant at maturity, its
shape, foliage texture and color.
A six-foot Kentia palm would overwhelm
a small room, while a shorter lacy -leaved
false aralia would be perfect.
Once you've measured your space and
determined the light intensity, you've also
.narrowed your houseplant choices. The next
step is to select those that are suitable for
your room.
Inspect each plant carefully for pests and
diseases. Don't hesitate to question the plant
dealer about anything that looks suspicious.
Never purchase a plant that has limp, off-
color leaves; it will be a constant problem.
Look for firm foliage and new growth.
Flowering plants should have plenty of
buds. Don't buy'a plant in full flower. It's at
its peak and won't blossom much longer.
When you get your new plants home,
water them thoroughly to flush out any salts
in the soil.
Isolate the newcomers from other
houseplants for two weeks and continue
checking for tell-tale signs of pests and
diseases. If the plants look clean after two
weeks, move them to their new locations.
Fertilizing too soon can cause root burn.
Wait until the plants have acclimated
themselves to their new environment, usual-
ly in about two months.
Alt houseplants need nitrogen for vigorous
green growth. A convenient source of this
vital nutrient is as near as the pantry shelf:
Knox Unflavored Gelatine. University
research has concluded that unflavored
gelatine, commonly used in recipes, helps
promote fuller, greener plants.
To apply, dissolve an envelope of gelatine
with one cup of hot tap water in a pitcher or
Targe mixing bowl; then add three cups of
cold water to make a quart. Water the
plants with this mixture once a month.
When you repot actively growing plants
into larger containers, fresh potting soil will
provide phosphorous and potassium.
One last tip; new houseplants can lose up
to one third of their lower leaves; Don't be
alarmed; it indicates that the plant is mak-
ing a normal adjustment.
Vinyl windows are efficient
You don't have to build a solar home to
have a house that is energy- efficient.
There are a variety of building products
on the market today that can make your
ii 'ie less expensive to heat and cool.
As an energy -conscious homeowner,
you're likely to have already invested in in-
sulation and storm doors. But, 'you may not
realize that windows can be the single
largest cause of energy loss in the American
home!
if your windows are, indeed, the culprit,
you should consider replacing thein with
nes• thermally efficient solid vinyl windows.

Sturdy and virtually maintenance -free.
solid vinyl replacement windows offer many
advantages that simply aren't available
with other types of windows.
Take, for example, the chambered profile
design engineered into each Certain (weed
window lineal. This special design creates
dead air pockets that result in reduced heat
and/or cold transfer between a home's in-
terior and exterior.
'these chambers also add structural
strength to the window. They virtually
eliminate condensation around the frame at
normal humidity levels.
Another feature of the Certain Teed win-
dow is the double -pane sealed insulated
glass with a 7 -inch dead air space. In com-
bination with the chambered frame, the
double -pane configuration provides greater
thermal efficiency for better comfort year
round.
In effect, the double -pane design serves as
a prime and storm window combination.
But, in contrast to traditional systems, vinyl
replacement windows have virtually
eliminated the need for storm windows.
To cushion the window glass for o
weather -tight [it, the manufacturer uses
wraparound, flexible vinyl, marine -type
glazing. This means no more dry, cracking
putty around the glass that periodically has
to be repaired or replaced.
And to complete the package. Cer•
W herecd's window has double weather-
stripping on every window, which creates a
virtually airtight seal and provides, added
protection against air infiltration and an-
noying drafts.
Regardless of the type of vinyl replace-
ment window you choose, however,
remember to keep your sales receipts. The
CertainTeed product will not only help make
life more comforable in yourhome, but it
may also qualify for a tax credit of up to $300
on your federal taxes, And, CertainTeed
windows never have to be painted because
the color is molded clear through the
frames.
