have them commence to grow

OOP for Anglican women Is
being held again this year at
#.1.4011, College in London the
last weekend , in May. ThIs
worshop does not deal with the
Activities of any special organ-
ization, but rather with. study
of the Christian faith gel?,
era' and the application of it
in daily living. Women of all
ages.from throughout t e
'Deese have been attending
each year, also a number from
other Canadian Dioceses. It is
open to all Anglian women.
"The Bible Speaks in An
Anxious Age" is the subject
for study this year, and the
director will again be the Rev.
Donald E. Bodley, Ph.D., who
organized this very successful
educational •project 6 years ago.
The Right Rev. G. N. Luxton,
Bishop of Huron, and Mrs. Lux-
ton will be special guests at
the dinner on the Friday eve-
ning, and the Bishop will speak
ease called "damping off". The
easiest way of preventing it is
to use sphagnum most, vermi-
culate, sand or a special •and
thoroughly sterilized soil. The
first two are the easiest to se-
cure being available at -,any seed
store. Actually neither the seed
nor the plant slips need any
great amount of nourishment
to germinate and start growth.
Just keeping the planting med-
ium moist but not wet is suf-
ficient for the first two to three
weeks. Later when well rooted
and the time comes for first
transplanting, nourishment is
provided in the shape of rich
potting soil, with some drain-
age in the bottom of the flower
pot or flat. Sphagnum or peat
moss, too, is an ideal condition-
er for heavy or very light soil.
A two-inch layer dug into .a
flower bed thoroughly will
change the whole structure of
the soil in a few weeks making
it loose or friable as the experts
say and far- more retentive of
moisture. .
Helpful Information
To build a house, one should
know something about the size,
shape, color and special use of
the materials to be used in con-
struction, and what goes with
what and when. To create, de-
velop' or build a good garden
we need sithilar detailed infor-
mation, and the seed catalogue
is where we will find it.
When we plant, how deep to
plant- and how far apart -how
big the plant will grow, when
it will bloom or be fit to use -
how to protect it from insect
and disease -what sort of a lo-
cation, sunny or shady -rich or
poor soil, etc.,) etc. Answers to
all these questions will be found
-in the catalogue, and the infor-
mation will be . specially tuned
to Canadian cliniste and other
conditions. There are lots, of
beautiful flowers, and some
vegetables that may d.o well in
Florida or Italy, but will be a
failure here. These, however,
will never be listed in a Cana-
dian seed catalogue, or offer-
ed by a reputable Canadian
seed merchant. Only something
field tested and found suited to
our vigorous climate will be
listed and recommended.
• Lawn Work Early
One pla6 the impatient gar-
dener can start once the snow
goes and the ground is fairly
dry is, on the lawn. Grass is a
cool weather plant and can be
sown as early as possible. Lat-
er snows and frost will not hurt
it at all. As a matter of fact,
it is well in most 'Ports Of Can=
ada to do all grass seeding
before or after the. summer
heat, that is upto mid-June or
after the end of August.
Too many people seem to
forget that grass is a plant,
and like other plants it needs
food and moisture regularly for
the best results. An applica-
tion of commercial fertilizer,
high in itrogen every, spring
or fall and thorough watering
during very dry weather, will
ensure a smooth luxuriant
growth and rich dnepco1or,
and this willalso- ten to
crowd out weeds. Of course,
even more important is good
seed, because without it, it
will be impossible to prodUce a
first class -lawn. Any good seed
for the average home owner
will be a high ' class blended
mikture of several varieties of
early, medium and late matur-
ity, specially balanced to pro-
duce even, line and deep green
color throughout the entire sea-

ber 31, 1963.

Debenture 'debt charges in the amount of $591.84 were
paid for by the Township, but not shown as additions on -•
the Tax Collector's roll in' 1963. . '
Taxes were not charged to the Bell Telephone.Oompany
for Public School tax rates on lines that the Clerk -Treasurer
did not know what schools. to which they were applicable.
' Fidelity, Bonds have been examined for only those
Treasurers of the School Boards' that are listed on Sche-
dule, #20, and therefore it is presumed that the remaining
Treasurers are not bonded.
The Bank Loan appears to be in excess of 'the amount
allowed by the Municipal Act.
The 1962 deficit was not included in the 1963 Budget
as required by the Municipal Act.
•
There are many sundry accounts receivable for grader
charges and materials sold by the Township, some .accounts
dating' back to 1961 that have not been collected. Where
possible, these accounts should be added to the Collector's
Roll; and if this is not possible, then an effort should be
made to collect them directly.
