The dimensions of this desirable house are 30' x 35" and the approxi- . mate cost slightly over ten thousand dollars. The entrance front faces toward the side of the lot and in the space be- ' tween the house and the next property, is to be laid out a somewhat formal terrace garden. Here, the flagstone pavement, bordered by flower beds and enclosed with a balustrade, will be a distinctive and dignified approach. While planned for a fifty foot, in- side lot, on the north side of the strect, much depends on the type and proxi- mity of the building on the next lot "at the right. For this reason a north- east corner property would be parti- cularly advantageous. and convenience are con- added to by having the gar- embodied in the house. In addi- to providing for it being heated L {ea by prairie stockmen, principally Fl wn v Adie: VAUX CHADWICK, 4 ORYAN CHADWICK, REOISTERLD ARCHITECTS Togo by the same unit, it eliminates what is very often an unsightly driveway and enables the owner to utilise this space for lawn and garden. Quite an unusual feature of the floor plans is that the den or sunroom is on the same level as the stair landing and | is therefore afforded the privacy of an upstairs room, but not being actual- ly on the bedroom floor, provides an ideal second living room.

NEWS OF T The West Is Smiling--Spraying More Effective on Pota- toes Than Dusting--Poultry in Britain. Warm weather has at last arriv- | ed, haying is well under way in most parts of Western Ontario, and crops In general are doing well. Corn, which has been .very backward, is showing the effect of the heat and is growing rapidly. Hay is a much better crop in West- ern Ontario than it was last year, al- though it is not extremely heavy. In the east it is turning out well, but is not equal to last years. On the aver- age the hay yield of the province should be equal to requirements, Live stock conditions remain uni- formly good. The West is Smiling. Western farmers generally consid- er crop prospects better this year than for several years past, says a report from Winnipeg. There has been little insect damage, rains have been fairly generdl and well spaced in time, growth has been healthy and rapid, and wheat is already heading out in early flelds. With strong growth and early ripening, the dan- ger from rust damage is consider- ably reduced. _ High winds, heat, and some hail arg reported to have done injury to crops in isolated districts, but the general condition continues excellent. Inquiries are already being receiv- from Ontario, for feeder cattle for late summer and early fall delivery. ed at the N.Y. State experimental station. Lime-copper dust, -of prac- tically the same chemical composi- tion as the regular Bordeaux spray, 'Was not as effective, even when ap- plied twice as often as the spray, Sprayed vines gave higher yields per acre, and a larger percentage of mar- ketable potatoes. Sprays gave much better protection against blight, and was effective against leaf hoppers, which were practically unaffected by the dust. a Poultry in Britain. As the British poultry breeder has |. much more confidence in the official records made at laying contests than in home records under periodic in- spection, and as, further, it is com- paratively easy in a smal} country to enter birds in a laying contest quite neaf home. Great Britain is not adopting the Canadian plan of R. O. P, and registration, as Was reported early in the year. Such a plan was submitted to the National Poultry Parliament by the Ministry of Agri- culture, but was referred back for Justher consideration, and will be opted only in Somewhat modified form. °F ' The Seediess Fameuse.
