In most areast of Southern Ontario thisil would probably be the last.“ week in April or the first two ‘ weeks of May. Naturally. thiSj‘ will vary with the season and where you live.

If you have it sloping towards the house‘ you will discover to your disâ€" may that at certain times of. the year. a small lake will de-f velop right next to the foundaj tion wall. and no power on earth will be able to prevent it from flowing through the foun- dation walls.

Such ‘terraces. particularly in small tgardens. substantially reduce the size of the lawn and re- quire much more maintenance. In cases where considerablef levelling is needed. you will need to push the existing top soil to one side and level the subsoil first. Then the good top soil is put back into place. Fertilizer Important For soils that are poor you would need to apply 10 bush- els of the humus and four pounds of a complete fertilizer per 100 square feet of lawn area. If your soil was originally farm land or used for a mark- et garden. you Would probably only need to apply six bushels of the humus per 100 square feet. Fo‘r small lawn areas the {cr- tilizer and the humus can be scattered over the soil and thoroughly mixed with it by lse of a spade or shovel.

If1 infection does occur. only part: of the turf in a mixed lawn‘ will go down. leaving othert varieties to keep out weeds. Mixtures Preferable These are the reasons most turf specialists now recom- mend using a mixture instead of pure stands of any one vari- ety. no matter how good that variety may be. Fortunately. ‘during the past decade. several finiproved varieties of blue- .grasses have been introduced. each selected because it was outstanding in one or more qualities. Balance all these qualities against those in which Merionl might be weak. An oustanding‘ mixture might include 40 to 45‘ percent Merion. with smallerl percentages of Delta and New- port. plus Pennlawn Fescue. the latter added to take care of any thin spots of soil or shad- ed areas. The addition of small amounts of Redtop will give even quicker greening soon after sowing than will the other graSSes in the mixture. yet not compete vigorously with them. as ryegrass would certainly do. While both Newport and! Delta are somewhat suscep’tible‘l to leaf spot. when combined with other 40 percent Merion‘ they are not hard hit enough. to seriously impair lawn‘ quality, One of the beauties of using a mixture which is mainly Me- rion Kentucky Bluegrass is the fact that you don‘t need to ap- ply any more than three pounds per 1.000 square feet of lawn area. This means that although the price per pound of such a grass mixture is more expen- sive than the so-called "bar- gain mixtures”, it is because you only need to apply three pounds per 1.000 square feet as against five pounds for the “bargain mixtures". The cost of seeding the lawn is actually less for the quality mixture than for the bargain variety. Richmond Hill Cub & Scout Richmond Hill Taxes Go Up 3,3 Mills§ (Continued From Page 1) objection to the library esti- mates was Councillor Alex Campbell who felt that the li- brary estimates were not out of line particularly the bud- getted increaSe in salaries. Following considerable dis- cussion the library estimates were reduced from $33,890 to $32,000. Also coming in for consider- able criticism were the esti- mates for park maintenance. The point at issue in this re- spect was an amount of $11.- 278.52 carried over from last1 year's estimates and which. at‘ the time, had been included in the estimates for the construc- tion of a changehouse. Coun- cillor Walter Scudds felt that the amount should be allowed to stand but was strongly opâ€", posed by Mayor Neal who em- ‘phasized the real necessity of keeping costs to a minimum“ [and thereby reducing taxes as ta measure of Inducing more in-, ‘dustry to settle in the town. jln the course of this discussion tMayor Neal remarked that he ‘rhad had personal representa- ltions from businessmen who t\\'el'e interested in locating in ‘Richmond Hill but who were ialso interested in knowing .where their taxes would he go- ling. The issue which became somewhat contentious was fin- ally resolved by a vote of the Icommittee. By a vote of four tto three the park maintenance {estimates of 327.000 were re- {duced to $20.000. Another municipal depart~ ment subjected to significant‘ cuts was the police department.l From a submitted estimate oil $114,225 council. during study of the estimates managed to; reduce the figure by 53.225. This economy was achieved; by reducing salary estimates1 of $89,600 by an amount of $1M 900 a move made possible by the shifting status of police ca- dets.

At any rate Mayor Neal comment- ed there ls nothing that can he done about it. Inso- far as public school costs were concerned the mayor felt that they had done a pretty fair job. Following special meet- ings held last Friday and Tuesday the local separate school board set the ‘mill rate {or home owners in Richmond Hill at 19.68 mills which is unchanged from last year. The board last year reduced the charge on its supporters by two mills. The separ- ate school are: is owned jointly by Richmond Hill 80‘}, Vaughan Township 12.3% and Markham Town- ship 7.7%. The 1963 mill rate for separate school supporters in the two townships is yet to be set. BAYVIEW & MARKHAM RD.

Before passing the motion some discussion centred around how much hardship such an action would impose on the owners of smaller properties but an analysis of the problem revealed that it would have in~ consequential effect upon such persons. It was also debated‘ whether the penalty should be ‘raised from six to eight per lcent or whether a middle fig- ure should be decided upon. It iwas the consensus of the com- lmittee however. that if there [was to be any increase in the ‘penalty rate it should be eight per cent or nothing at all.
