J. “(-11 JUVENILE GENERAL LIST Leafy Spurge produces a great quantity of seed and’ therefore should] never be allowed to go to seed. The extensive root system stores enormous quantities of food and this makes it difficult to de- stroy either by cultivation or chem- icals. Do not cultivate through small patches for fear of spreading pieces of the underground! root- 5130ka over the rest of the field. Small patches should; be heavily sprayed with weed1 killer, while large infested areas should‘ be taken out of crop production at once and given a bare, black summer fallow for at least two years. This should be followedI by a smother crop or by grain .heavil‘y seedyedi to clover. Weed of the Week Leafy Spurge is undoubtedly the hardlest of all weeds to control, states John. D. MacLeod, Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch, Ont. Dept. of Agriculture, Toronto. This is because the root system goes deep into the soilâ€"sometimes ten feet. In addition to the deep, vertical roots, there are numerous later root- stocks with budls from which new plants may grow. Patches of this weed are now found im practically every county in Ontario. It is con- sidered so dangerous to Canadian Agriculture that no seed of any kind may be sold! f0r seeding purposes that contains even a ,single seed! of Leafy Spurge. In Ontario, Leafy Spurge grows so vigonously that it soon crowds out all other vegetation. The stems are from one to three feet high. The leaves are long, narrow, and smooth to the touch, bluishugreen in color and turning meddlish in. the fall. The flowers are greenish yellow in flat-topped clusn ters with a ring of leafâ€"like bracts at the base of each cluster. The {Feds are borne in threeâ€"lobed fruits or capsules. They are smooth, light_ gray in color with brownish spots. THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL.

Its greater popularity dur- ing the past few years, evidenced by the large increase in consump- tion of tomato products, is due in part: to an awakened appreciation of the food‘ value of the tomato, as wzl‘l as to the fact that its uses have become more varied. The tomato season is now at its height, and while the hot Weather continues tomatoes will be served for the most part in salads, and a Little later hot tomato dishes will grace the supper table. ALTERATIONS and INSULATING The spicy aroma of tomato relish from the kitchen is one of the first signs of early fall, and with the many recipes available housewives will [be busy putting away. the garâ€" den vegetables in the form of pickles and relishes for winter use. Here are some of the favourite tomato recipes of the Consumer Section, Marketing Service, Domin~ ion Department of Agriculture. Oven Canned Tomatoes Select firm tomatoes of medium: or small size. Wash. Using- Wire basket or cheesecloth bag, immerse in boiling water 1 to 3 minutes or umtil skins» will slip off easily. Plunge at once into coldl water. Pack carefully in hot sterilized jars.

Run sterilized knife down side of jar several times to allow air bubbles to escape. Place new sterilized’ rubber in position and screw top on tightly, thenr 100s- eru Lack one-half turn. Put on rack in oven having jars about 1% inches apart. Process at 275 degrees F. for 35 minutes for pint jars and 4-5 minutes for quart jars. When cool enough to handle remov‘e from oven and complete seal. Invert jars.

Arrange on a bak- invg pan andl broil about 10 minutes, or until the tomatoes are tender. They may be baked at 375 degrees F. for 20 minutes if desired. Chutney 1% dozen tomatoes 11/2 dozen apples 2 red peppers Tested Recipes THE LUSCIOUS TOMATO RE-ROOFING C. Riddell Thvornhill I “We fully appreciate that many :farm homes are extra busy this year because of lack of help and we knew lthat many women who had; a great deal of free time a year ago are ‘now devoting many hours to war 'wovk; yet we do feel that there are 'a great many homes in the country, 'at summer resorts, or in the subâ€" ‘urbs of Toronto where one or two ichild’ren would be welcome for two [weeksY vacation if the womenfolk only knew how urgent the need is” ‘Miss Colllver stated. More Homes Needed By Neighborhaud Workers Licensed A~uctioneer for the counties of York and Ontario Successor for Corporal Ken Prentice of C.A..Q F. and of the late J. H. Prentxce, formerly (Prentice & Prentice) Farm and F'n'm Stock Sales a spe- cialty at fair and reasonable rates. Milliken Phone Agincourt 52w3. Three hundred less invitations than this time last summer and five hundred children yet on the wait- ing-list! These facts are causing grave concern to the Country Homes Department of the Neighborhood Workers Association in Toronto. Ac- cording to Miss Mildred; Collver, director of the scheme whereby needy city children are sent for free vacations to the homes of country folk, only 6412 children have been sent away to date as against 921 a year ago. Unfortunately the need for holidays for many children is greater than ever this year, espeâ€" cially in srold-iers’ homes where the father is overseas and the mother is tired and‘ worried from the strain of having to carry on alone. Send- ing the children to the country means a holiday for them and a rest for her and eases thevtension all round, Miss Collver points out.

Walkington AUCTIONEER INSURANCE An especially urgent need at pre- sent is vacation spots for boys be- ‘tween the ages of six and‘ thirteen. There are scores of lads who would have a much better chance of a healthy winter if they could get tWO weeks in the country before going back to school. The majority of the five hundlred. children on the wait- ing list have not been away all sum- mer from the hot streets on which they live. All of the children come from homels where holi‘days under any other scheme are impossible for financial or other reasons, Miss Collver points out. Hostess'es, she pointed out, are asked! to provide sleeping quarters for the children, plenty of good wholesome food‘, and! as much oppor- tunity as possible for play in the open air. The Neighborhood Work- ers Association arranges transpor- tation and has the children medi- call'y examined before they leave the city. Wherever possible the Neigh- borhoodl Workers Association prefers to send two children to the same home and they do not send‘ children a greater distance than 150 miles from Toronto. With vacation time fast drawing to a close, invitations must come in thick andl fast, otherwise a great number of little children are due for a bitter disappointment. They- have been waiting all summer for “a kind lady in the country” to invite them to her home. Invitations should be addressed to the Country Homes Department, Neighborhood Workem Association, '22 Welles-ley Street, Toronto. They should‘ enclose a brief note from the ’loc‘al‘ clergyman, and shOuld state clearly whether boys or girls are preferred, how mamr children can be accommodated and what age. Complete details should‘ also be given as to when and where the children will be met. The Neigh- borhoodw Workens Association makes all arrangements for the trip. Write now before it is too late.
