We’re gettin’ so we need again To see the sproutin’ seed again. We’ve been shut up all winter ong Within our narrow rooms; We’re sort 0’ shrivelled up and dry- Ma’s cranky like and quick to cry; We need the blue skies overhead, The garden with its blooms. I’m findin’ fault with this and that! I threw my bootij at the cat Because he rubbed against my leg-â€" I guess I’m all on edge; I’m fidgety and fussy too, An’ Ma finds fault with all I do;‘ It seems we need to see again The green upon the hedge. grass; Our souls will break their narrow cells, I An’ swell with love once more. And with the blue skies overhead, The harsh and hasty words we’ve vsaid Will vanish with the snow an’ ice, When spring unlocks the door. But soon our petulance will passâ€" Our feet will tread the dewâ€"kissed The sun will make us sweet again With blossoms at our feet again; We’ll wander, arm in arm, the ways Where beauty reigns supreme. An’ Ma an’ I shall smile again, An’ be ourselves a. while again, An’ claim like prisoners set free, The charm of every dream. The executive of the Horticultural Society are desirous that the mem- bers for 1934 enroll as soon as pos- sible so that plans may be completed for the present year. “The best yet” is the aim. Owing to existing con~ ditions at the time of the annual meeting it was not deemed advisable to have the annual membership can- vas, and as a result there have been several inquiries as to whether Un- ionville would have a Society this year. The answer is emphatically “YES.” Those in attendance at the annual meeting, volunteered to secure at least five members each before April 1st. This is a gentle reminder of those members responsibility. However, it is not necessary to subâ€" mit your membership in this manner. The secretary, Mr. Alex. Bell, will be pleased to add your name to the list on receipt of $1.00, the membership fee. An attractive list of programs will be offered. Make it a banner year for your local society!

Fleshy leaved plants will require airing early, but the mulch should! come off gradually, re- moving a layer a week, while bulbs should remain covered a little longer. Spring Worfifiehfien! Way Bamn‘tiléfilibegl‘ File Clean all dead leaves and stalks from around Hollyhocks, Delphiniums. and Paeonies when they are uncover- ed, and spray new growth with Borâ€" deaux Mixture. Roses, perennials and Rock Garden plants which have been heaved by frost, shoum be pressed dbwn into the soil. Culleys in the rockery should be filled, preferably with stone chips. Cut away all rotting leaves of fleshy or woollyâ€"leaved plants and sprinkle stone chips about the crown. As soon as the ground is free from frost, many perennials may be divid- ed, especially Trollius; but few flow- ers should be expected from these new divisions. Tuberous Begonias may be started about the end of Feb-‘ ruary planted in flats filled with leaf mould and coarse sand. The tubers should be planted very shallow and not be permitted to dry out. If Dahlias are to be grown from cuttings, the tubers should now be excited into growth. Start the seeds of slow growing annual flowers in boxes - or frames. These flowers include Lobelias‘, Zinnias, Pot Mari- golds, Petunias, Asters, Ageratum and Salvia. Within the next week or two Snapdragons for summer may be grown from seed sown in cold frames or indoors. Cuttings are also readily made from indoor plants, but with these there is always the danger of carrying over antirrhinum rust. Air the hotbeds‘ and cold frames on warm sunny days to prevent moisture from collecting and causing damping- off. When dividing clumps of perennial Phlox, the centres of the clumps should be discarded. To overcome the effect of mildew on the lower leaves of Phlox, Roses and other plants, spray with Bordeaux Mixture or dust with powdered sulphur when the dew is upon the leaves. The sul- phur may be shaken from cheese- cloth bags or an ordinary salt shaker. Gladiolus corms should be treated :in spring to prevent the spread of thrips, an insect that is doing great damage to this beautiful floWer. Dissolve 1 ounce of Corrosive Sub- limate in 6 gallons of water, using a‘ glass or wooden vessel. Remove the husks from the corms and immerse them for a period of 3 hours. During this time the liquid should be kept at about 70 degrees F. The corms may then be removed and planted, or thor- oughly dried. It is important to re- member that this material is deadly poison and care should be exercised in the use of the same. A light dressing of Hydrated Lime may be sprinkled over the Irises at this time. This sweetens the soil and helps to prevent rot. Avoid deep planting of the Iris. They should be divided or moved about three weeks after flowering, and this is advisable about every three years. Many Lilies can be planted as safe- ly in spring as in autumn. The list includes Lilium Henryi, Regale, Aur- atum and the speciosum Lilies. Or- ders for these should be placed im- mediately. In planting Lilies give them good drainage, by surrounding the bulb with coarse sand. Do not permit the Into come into contac. with manure. Using a taxi may cost more, butl it’s fun not to give a darn when a{ 'fender crumples. All shrubs including hedges and in particular those which are weak and straggly will show their appreciation of a good mulch of manure which .rhould be left on the year round‘. The ground should also be well spaded around them. To kill weeds and d-andclicns'vin the lawn, put a few drops of Sulphuric acid on an ice pick or sharp nail and‘ stick into the heart of the plant. This proves fatal and they will not come up again. As soon as the Paeony bud‘s deve10p the small lateral buds should be re-‘ moved in order to throw all the strength of the stem into the large terminal bud. This has a tendency to develop large flowers. Continue to cultivate your Paeonies all season as the flower buds of next year will be made this summer. Roses should be planted as early as possible. Avoid crowding and shallow planting. Plant in full sunlight and provide good drainage. As roses are strong feeders it is well to spade into the soil some well-rotted manure. Prune the Hybrid Teas and Hybrid Perpetuals in spring, removing all dead.l parts. A Wise policy is to prune severely those of weak growth, and )nly lightly those of more vigorous growth. Climbing roses are prunned after the;- flower, by cutting out the lldest wood and forcing new young miles from below, which will bloom the following year. (By John F.
