Mill Pond By far the most interesting in point of scenic beauty and with the greatest possibility of development is the Mill Pond area. Considerable work has al- ready been done around the pond and in the small area south of Mill Street. Utilizing the winter works programme it was possible to do a great deal with the $500. donated by the Rotary Club. While the natural contours and water resources make it a very attractive spot. It was neccessary to clean the creek and pond of debris. to make paths and to remove un- desirable trees. Mr. Tilt suggested that the water could be adapted to rap- ids. a fountain and ponds for fish and water lilies. The small park has some very pretty flow- er beds and benches and it is planned that memorial trees shall be planted there. This area has great beauty and is 3 fav- ourite haunt of the naturalists. Town Park The other large area is the town park which requires im- proved facilities and change rooms to make it more userful for outdoor sports. Parkettes Parks Bd.

The committee reporting on senior citizen’s housing at Oran‘geville was very enthusiasâ€" tic about the comfort and conâ€" venience â€" stating only that they would like to see pro- vision for recreation. A very humorous letter was received from MT. A. E. Plew~ man, past president, whc is visiting a daughter in England. A request from the senior citizens regarding prices on prescriptions for the elderly. was well received, and the local druggists will co-operate in cases of need. Mrs. C.

C. T. Crisp stated that there was lots of water in Markham Township but that during periods of peak de- mand, residents of the high ar- eas in the township. Langstafi and Highland Park. did not have sufficient water pressure. He noted that the township had been approached earlier by a group of ratepayers from High- land Park suggesting such a lawn watering restriction: The township is presently un- dertaking the construction of a water tower on Bayview Avenue just south of No. 7 Highway and this is expected to relieve the situation. Township engin- ‘eers say that this is the only ‘teasible way to cope with the :problem. Mr. Crisp stated they “hope to have the tower com- pleted within two or three months. Vaughan Twp.

Do not fill in completely at the time of planting, barely cover the tuber, as the plants grow the soil is gradually drawn around the stems until the hole is filled. Water the plants when the soil is very dry. and do a thorough job of soaking the ground to a depth of eight in- ches. This may mean running the hose two hours in one place. A light sprinkling does more harm than good as it draws the roots to the surface. A mulch of peat moss. sawdust or lawn clippings will conserve moisture. eliminate cultivation and protect the roots from ex- treme heart. To produce the best growth and beauty. feeding is necessary. Each plant should be fed one rounded tablespoon- ful of fertillzer when about 12 stems with three buds coming on each stem. Leave only the centre bud. pinch out the other two on each stem. When exhib- iting ‘speclm-‘en dahlla blooms they should be free of side buds. Show day is a blt late for disbuddi'ng as the judge can see where they were taken out. If done earlier no scar shows. Dahlias should be sprayed regularly every week with Mala- thion or dusted with a dust such as is used on roses. A green colored dust does not mar the (foliage and can hardly be not- iced. It is important that spray or dust covers the under side of the leaves. After frost has killed the ;plant, cut off the top about two to three inches above the ground and dig carefully. Two spades are better than one for this job. Leave soil attached and store in cellar in a temperature of 40 to 50 degrees. GROWING DAHLIAS FOR FUN AND PRIZES The dathlia, a colorful flower that originated in Mexico is reaching new heights of popu- larity. It comes in a wide var- ieity of forms ranging from dwarf tyupes growing a_foot and At the council meeting on Tuesday, May 22nd, Mark- ham Township passed a by-léw restricting the water- ing of lawns to the hours between 10 pm. and 7 am. and providing for a fine of $20.00 for any infraction. The by-Iaw applies during the months of May. June, July, August and September. a halcf high to giants that grow six to eight feet tall. The flow- ers vary greatly in size too, from the small bwtton types to the large decorative varieties with blooms ten indhes in diam- eter. The best location for dah- lias is one that gives full sun- shine all day long. A planting at the south side of our house will escape frost damage later in the fall than plantings in an open location. Any well drained garden soil will grow dahlias. Either light or heavy soil will be improved by addition of moistened peat moss, material from the com- post heap, or well rotted man- ure to enrich and loosen the soil, improve drainage and let \oxygen down to the roots. A letter advising ratepayers of the by-law was}? sent out last week and was termed by one resident of 5 the Grandview Estates Subdivision as “dictatorial”. j Mrs. Florrie Galt pointed out that the homes in the 4 area were only 11/3 years old and the residents had i spent hundreds of dollars on shrubs, trees and lawns, 5 all of which would be lost without watering. }{ Planting is done from May 15 to June 1 when the soil has war- med up. Too early planting causes the stems to become hard and woody and lose their properties to expand and grow. Plants should be three feet apart each way. In clay soil dig a hole eight inches deep. In lighter soil ten inches deep, place the tuber firmly in the soil with the eye facing up- ward. A tuber must have a piece of the old stalk attached as the eyes grow on the stalk not on the tuber.

Although Vaughan has not found it necessary to place any restrictions on Lawn watering. at the peak demand period, be- tween 5 pm. and dusk, they have cut the pressure gust a little to avoid any possibilty of lack of pressure in any particu- lar area. Farm Situation Serious Farms in York County are suffering from a general wa’er shortage. according to informa- tion supplied by Agricultural Representative Allan Wall. A lot of farm wells are very low and a few farmers have started to draw water for cattle. The situation has been aggravated because the cattle were late getting out onto pasture. Fanm crops, too. are suffering reports Mr. Wall. especially Ivay and ‘pa-sture crops. Much of the spring grain is making no pro- gress and the, situation is crit- ical. If the drought continues for a couple of weeks, many crops may have to be re-seeded. There has been some rain in the cenrtral part of the county - Newmarket had half an inch last Saturday - but drought conditions exist in both north- ern and southern sections. When the plant has develop- ed four sets of leaves, pinch out the top centre of the plant. For each set of leaves left you will obtain four large flowers. Four laterals will develop when these have grown four to five inches in length pinch off the four or- iginal leaves. As well as conser- ving nourishment this prevents soil-borne organisms bein‘g pic- ked up by the plant; Feeding should 'be made at this rate every six Weeks until bud-s appear. and thereafter feed every three weeks. A soil test would determine what for- mula should be used. In my garâ€" den phosphate is needed most and is supplied in the form of superphosphate. Wood ashes are used to provide potash. In or- der to obtain large exhibition blooms pruning is important. When the four laterals be- come two feet high tie them with twine or rafiia to the stake. As the plant grows tie again several times. Sublaterals or suckers will begin to develop as with tomatoes. These must be pinched out when half an inch long. If they are allowed to grow they will take the nourishment out of the plants and you will have more but smaller flowers. This is alright in case the plant is a pompam or other small type. For the large exhibition tynpes when the plant is fully grown you should have four straight stems with three buds coming on eadh stem. Leave only the centre bud. pinch out bhe other two on each stem. When exhvi-b- irting ‘speclmen da‘hlla blooms they should be free of side buds. S‘h-ow day is a bit late for disbuddin‘g as the judge can see where they were taken out.

Do not allow plant food to touch the stem. After frost has killed the plant, cut off the top about two to three inches above the ground and dig carefully. Two spades are better than one for this job.
