PUBLIC SCHOOL REPORTS c1w3 c1w3 Moses gave some useful direc- tions to his people on the culture of fruit trees.

But when this was first noticed, and how grafting came to be us- ed for the amelioration of fruits, will probably ever remain a sec- ret All the writers of antiquity ag- ree in putting the fig at the head of the fruit trees that were first cultivated. The vine is the next in order, the fruit of which serves not only for food, like that of the fig, but, also for drink. The almond and pomegranate were early cultivated in Canaan (Gene- sis xliii 5-111 and Numbers xx 5), and it appears by the complaints of the Israelites in the wilder- ness. that the fig. grape, and pom- egranate. were known in Egypt from time immemorial. It is said that the browsing of a goat gave the first idea of prun- ing the vine, as ,chance, which had set fire to a rose tree, gave the first idea of pruning the rose. That fire was applied to the rose trees in Greece to enrich them, and without that precaution they would bear no flowers, by Gladys McLatchy Gardening. what is it? It is a thing of beauty and a joy forever. But while we are relaxing from the perpetual weed-pulling, etc” let’s look back into history a few years, and see what it’s all about. Gardening, we find is the culti- vation of a limited space by man- ual labour, for culinary and or- namental products. Thus gar- -dening, like most other arts, has had its origin in the supply of a primitive want; and as wants be- came desires, and desires increas- ed, and became luxurious and re- fined, its objects and its provinces became extended. To add to the value and extend the variety of garden produuc- tions, new vegetables, etc., have been introduced from time to time; to diffuse instruction on the subject, numerous books have been written. societies like the Richmond Hill Horticultural, have been established, and prizes held out for rewarding individual merit; and where professorships on rural economy exists, garden- ing may be said to form a part of public instruction The products if the kitchen garden form important articles of human food fow all ranks of society; and flourish the chief lu- xuries of the table: of the rich, and the main sumarc of the fam- ilies of the poor. 09: of the first objects of a person on a new set- tlement is to plant a garden, as proof of possession and a pledge of immediate enjoyment. Horticultural Highlights NORTH YORK : June building perfnit values totalled $8,205,- 355, this year while the figure for the first six months of this year is 9% million over last year. On Monday evening final plans were made for the vacation school which gets under way on Monday, July 19, at nine o‘clock. All children on the charge are welcomed from 3 years up. As last year cookies for the refresh- ment period will be donated on Monday and Thursday by the la- dies of Victoria Square, Tuesday and Friday by BroWn's Corners and on Wednesday by Headford. Mr. Percy Briggs will have charge of the crafts for the sen- ior boys. The service. August 1, will be in charge of the Gideons, who will hold services at the regular times at allthree churches. Aug- ust 8 will be church holiday, with no services anywhere on the cir- cuit. The next three Sundays will have one service each at 11 o'clock â€" on the 15th at Brown’s Corners, 22nd at Headford and August 29 at Victoria Square. On Sunday we heard a resume of what took place at the Ashram held at Ladies College. Whitby last week. This was the third Canadian Ashram conducted by Rev. Stanley Jones, and attended by our minister who shared his experiences with us. We were further reminded of the plans for services on the charge for the vacation month of August. We of Headford are especially fortunate. Let there be a flower show at Richmond Hill, and the next day our Church will be graced by one or several of the prize winning entries. This past Sunday it was delphiniums and shasta daisies, brought by Mrs. Geo. Barker. We hear that Mrs. Elmer Leek carried off top hon- ords in the novice class .and in one other class at the show. Danny Jones is visiting his grandfather, Mr. Fred Lee, hav- ing come alone from Ottawa on the bus last Tuesday. Belated birthday greetings to Mrs. William Wellman who cele- brated her birthday last Friday and to her granddaughter Bren- da, who will be a year old on Thursday. Mr. George McConnell and Judy, Carol and Lynn were vis- itors with Hal and Mrs. Acreman last Sunday. Mr. and 'Mrs. Charlie James and Davey were guests last Sun- day of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Leek. Mr. and Mrs. Bert Leek of Gorm- ley were also there. Having touched the productive side of gardening to the point of a terrific desire to taste some of the vegetables aforementioned, I will refrain from going knee-deep into the flower beds of antiquity. but will leave you with this thought and belief; that the plea- sure attending the pursuit of gar- dening is conducive to health and repose of mind; and a taste for the enjoyment of gardens is so natural to man, as almost to be universal. Our most endearing and sacred associations are con- nected with gardens; our most simple and most refined percep- tions of beauty are combined with them; and the very condition of our being compels us to the cares. and rewards us with the pleasures attached to them. The love of gardens is the only passion which augments with age. the Israelites (Numbers xi 5) HEADFORD NEWS Correspondent: Mrs. H. Acreman R. R. 2 Gormley, Ont.
