This week we had Shrove Tuesday which in turn brings thoughts of Easter to follow How about bringing in some shrubs to force into bloom First of all dont butcher any plant cut one or two year old branches and such ones or in such manner that you do not spoil the shape of your shrub or tree Select branches from the south side of the plant as the buds are usually more advanced than buds on the north side of the plant Gather enough branches to make at least one nice arrangement The flower buds on the bran ches are usually plump and round while the leaf buds are more slim and pointed Crush the stems before plac ing in about five inches of water in container in dark room with temperature of about 55 der It twins to if NV leaves occasionally with luke warm water lctcnd you are duplicating the warm soft rains of spring As soon as buds show color bring to light and place where you want them It is fun to watch them come into bud Try to bring some birch branches along also Their cattails are very decorative as well as their later foliage For sythia Japonica flowering Quince Spirea Vanhouttci Pus sy Willows Service Berry and Bridal Wreath Spirea are all good MUSICALLY SPEAKING for

to oppose oil price hike By GEORGE McCAGUE MPP DufferinSlmcoe 0nMarclh Dennis Timbrell will lead his Ontario delegation to Ottawa for the federal pro vincial energy ministers confer ence It will be significant and momentous occasion for what is at stake affects all Canadians Living in cold and changing climate and having the need to travel long distances for either business or leisure purposes is going to cost all Canadians more money Why The cost of gasoline and heat ing oil is going up again At least that is the prospect facing Ontario from three of the majors in the business the federal gov ernment and the two producing provinces Ottawa appears to favor $2 increase per barrel for crude oil Albeita favors $350 increase Saskatchewan is looking forward to $4 barrel increase Thats dramatic 50 per cent increase over the present price Naturally as liapocncd in the past Ontario will vigorously op poe such an incrcmc Such price increases do nothing for the ovcral economic health of the Canadian economy and probably do great deal of harm in the long run to the economy of the producing provinces They will develop strong imbalance of money in these provinces and intensify regional economic dis parities in the rest of Canada The most immediate parallel is the state of the world econ omy The oilproducing countries are immensely wealthy and the developing nations are immcnsc ly povertystricken as result of money flowing from the latter to the former What Mr Timhrell and cannot fathom is that crude oil produced in 1972 at little over $2 cannot now be produced and profitably marketed at $8 per barrel in 1976 That same crude came from the same fields and wells Getting the price increased at this time does not help the Can adian economy Mr Timbrell contends that the march to higher prices ignores the spirit of the federal antiin flation program and provides no assurance that the additional money will assure long term en ergy supplies Above all it is being carried out without the development of wellreasoned national energy policy By increasing energy prices all we are doing is following the world price which ignores all the basics of ccnomics supply de mand and price The fallout effects in Ontario wiil hc vastatlng impact $2 Tirr will mean 13000 fewer jobs in Ontario than if the price remained the same The consumer price index will rise 13 per cent in the first year per cent resulting from crude oil increases and the rest to in creascs in natural gas Jud when the United States is moving to restrain crude oil increases and in some cases is working to reduce the price of new oil coming into use Canada is going in the opposite direction For the consumer the story is similar $2 hike would mean Weve Just no Your Ontario Soft Drink Association has
