Clar 'cultural Specialist of the Dept. of Agriculture, Toro Dept. of Agriculture, Toronto. In grouping always confine shrub masses to the outer edges or boun- flaries, avoiding the spotting of single shrubs throughout. the lawn. .They should be so arranged that open vistas appear from windows and» verand-ah. Varieties should be planted: in groups, and in small grounds nothing more elaborate than a planting of a few of each. Shrubs are necessary for a backâ€" ground, but where there is space; pleasing effects may be secured byl planting a perennial border in front of the shrubbery. The best expoâ€" sure would be a southern or a west- ‘ ern one. Excellent specimens may be secur- ed in the Magnolia, Weeping Mul- berry, Flowering Almond, Rose of Sharron and Lilac. When given a prominent position, standing alone, they may assume larger propor- tions, but annual pruning will keep them symmetrical. Varieties having a number of fea- tures may be chosen, the aim being colour, foliage, berries and flowers at dfilfferent seasons to prolong the blooming period. This list would in- clude Forsythia, Spiraea, Weigelia, Hydrangea and Hibiscus. The ornamenrtal effect of good flowering s’hrulbs will prove a valu- able addition to the grounds when used as a hedge. These may include Chinese Elm, Lilac, Mock Orange, Brid‘al Wreath, Caragana and Honey- suckle. , The Alpine Currant makes a satisfactory hedlge even in dense shade. Suitable shrubs for shady places, not directly under trees, are Dog- wood, Coral Berry, Sntowberfy, E1- d‘er, Philadtelphus, Hydrangea, arbor- escen-s, Lonicera and? Spiraea, pro- viding the pesition is not in dense s-hadle. 'The roots should never be per- mitted to dry out, either before or after planting. Damaged roots should be removed, and the balance spread out naturally in the soil. Giv.e firm planting. Where there are a number of shoots or branch-es they should be headed back slightly, until the roots have an opportunity to take hold and provide the top with necessary moisture and nourishment. A top dressing oat“ well-rotted cow manure, lightly cultivated into the soil, will prove Ibeneficial. Avoid crowding and give space for dxevel- 0pment. Keep shrubs a short dist- ance from walls to escape drip from the roof and the reflected heat from the bricks.

RICHMOND HILL, ONTéRIO ltural Spe- Agriculture, on varieties ffered‘ than shrubs to rubs to nto the to the , Horti- Ontario dents of this town, buried in Rip1 Van Winkle’s part of the Catskills,1 wondered as they cashed'i unemploy-l men‘t insurance cheques whether they would be driven out into a world’ they have never seen, to w0vk at trades they never have kn0wn. The Town is for sale, complete with a 97-acre wood‘ed‘ tract, a woodâ€" working factory in which $500,000 has been sunk and from which mill- ions have been taken, a church, soâ€" cial and recreation'halls, adminisâ€" tration build‘ring, general store and “all modern improvements,” includi- ing running water and a sewage- disposal plant. Thrown into the bargain is a race of wood-workers who never have committed crime, never created lab- or dris‘tunbancves, and] never objected ’to their wages, Once as low as a dollar a day. Generatiqns of Workers They have res‘idedJ here for gen- erations, grandfathers, fathers and sons turning out some of the finest office furniture in the world. But no one has worked and not one stick of furniture has been pro- duced since last November. The United States District Court in New York has declined: to accept a bid of $30,500 fior the entire propâ€" erty in reorganization proceedings. The owners, Schwarzwaeltiier & Com- pany, think it is worth many times that figure. The Court’s Special Master, Peter B. Olney, Jr., thinks it is worth “more” than a profit of $5,000 .over its $12,500 tax liens and an equal amount in mortgages. Residents of Chichester have work- ed in wood beyond the memory and records of the oldies-t inhabitants. They save stripped bark for tanning concerns, and more than 100 years ,ago someone started a sanill. The property passed) 75 years ago to Lemuel Chichesber and, in 1892, to Schwarzwaelder dynasty, which built it to its present size and establish- ed a protectorate over the people. William O. Schwarzwaedler made it pay. During his regime, the con- cern shipped fine office furniture to Europe and South America and- had on its domestic books the names of Morgan and: Vanderbilt, l'eading in- surance companies, and banks of the East. His sons, William, who is president; Carl, the Secretary, and S. B., Treasurer, who is in) charge duning‘ reorganization, have not far- ed too well. , S. B. Schwarzwaeldler said: “The ray roll had fallen from $2,000 to C’hichester, N.Y.â€"â€"â€"The 200 resiâ€" Richmond Hi“, Saturday, May 20th OPEN TO PUPILS OF ALL SCHOOLS IN RICHMOND HILL AND DISTRICT.

Raw eggs are cheaper and easier to get. One night recently Martin Steph- enson, Cecil Thompson and Bill Mor- now got to bragging about their ap- petites and, as the Easter season had just passed, the egg question Was brought to light. After relating some of their past performances along that line, the boys decided‘ to give the crowd a lit- tle dnemonstratiom' Going into the local restaurant these ambitious gents; sat down and ordered the waiter to “bring on the 'raw eggs.” So the amazed and curious Chinese lad began to “dish ’em up," and when: the Whitehandkerchief was thrown in Marl-in Stephen-s was deâ€" clared the Winner, he having con- sumed 15 eggs. Thompson and‘ MM- row followed close with 12 and 11 respectively. The following night, however, Bill ] Morrow appeared on the scene again. Finding nolbody anxiiOus to compete With him Bill set out to break the record established! the previous‘ night. To prove that he was just fooling before, Bill ate 24 drellcious first-grade “cackleberries” in the raw. IOongratuIations, Bill, and keep up the good work. It may help to put up the price of eggs and pOuItry- raisers will be 'right behind you. $6100 a week before we closed. We used to hire 1% men; at the end it was. about 35. There never has been any trouble here, crime, labor, or anything else.” He said' the Company rented houses to employees on an average monthly rental of $15. Wages ran from $16 to $25 for a 48-hour week. Chil'dtlarbour legislation drove about 60 students into the district school of two rooms and eight gradles. In the old! days, two years of education was enough for the avlerage resi- dent. Few left home. Charles S. Smith, who has worked in the factory about 50 years but is not the oldest employee, said, “I don’t know what we can do if the factory doesn’t open. We don’t know anything but Chichester and! wood- work, but there isn’t a thing we can’t d‘o'with mahogany, maple, oak, birch, and beech. Successor to J. J.
