It may be lkened to a form of sport, because here we are in certain com petition with Nature, growing a pro- fusion of flowers that are not indl- genous to this gonntry while friend- 1y rivalry with neighbours in having the first corn or the largest dahlia also lends colour to the comparicon, But unlike most sport now-a-days, the fees are nominal and the mem- bership democratic, open to the owner of a vast estate or to the humble tenant of a city cottage. But gardening goes farther than provid. ing healthy sport and recreation. It allows us to round out our lives by satisfying that craving for some creative work. In planting and de- veloping a scheme of natural dec- oration for the ground about house, we are really doing some- thing for ourselves, something per- manent, and something that will take our minds away from the dally grind and give us peace away down deep Inside. We are also very ma- terially catering to our aesthetic gense, creating masterpieces in flow- ers, grass, shrubbery and (trees. during this period of unsettlement gardening offers practically all of us an opportunity of reducing the cost of living and providing us with gome definite endowment because in addition to flowers we have long list of vegetables at our com- mand. Even in the restricted area of the ordinary city backyard it is possible to grow enougn vegetables to keep an average family supplied for a couple of months, and not on ly this but supplied with the very highest quality because vegetables never taste quite the game as those taken from the garden right at the door. Should Plan Now But why bother about gardening now, with the echoes of New Year's celebrations just dying away, your average person may ask? True, here in Canada, we have a bit of winter still before us and it will be some weeks before we ean cally forth, spade in hand, But right at this point we might as well start shattering illusions by explaining that a good deal of success in gars dening, and not a little pleasure too, 1fes in planning. The more we pic- ture what we are going to do, the better the results. It is nol neces- sary to worry over lack of means or sxperience. We can spend Just as Hitle as we like and we can get fun wid watisfaction transforming a ten yy twenty lot Into some constantly shanging pleture of natural beauty, Jit what about the children? By ull means leave them a place to play, or better still, allow them to associate In the work of planning and planting. Moreover, it is not necessary nor advisable to cover the whole place with flower beds. Bet~ ter results can bg obtained hy seea- ing down the central portion in grass which makes a much more the | And finally, and not least important, | a satisfactory playground than dust Library News One of the outstanding books of last tall was "Years of Grace," by M. A. Barnes, Chicago is the set- ting of this long novel which chro- nicles the life of a family through two generations. It centers around Jane Ward who in the nineties was an alert young college girl. She is the focus of many complex relationships as she goes through life, trying to adjust herself to her own and the younger gencra- tion. : "Lives of a Bengal Lancer," by F. Yeats-Brown {8 an autobiogra- phy of an unusual kind, vigorously written and with many passages of surprising beauty. The writer went to India in 1905 at the age of nincteen as an English officer in a troop of lancers. There, in the midst of polo, pig-sticking, hard riding and fighting, he de- veloped a real desire to under- stand India, learn its languages and find a meaning in life through its oriental philosophies and re: liglons, 'The war and travel inter- vened and he later retired from the army, This fascinating ac- count of his life will attract read- ers interested in sport, India, phil- ogophy, daring adventure, ana good writing, The admirers of Lion Feuch- twanger, the author of "The Ugly Duchess," will welcome his new book "Success."

It is preferable to plot our plang on paper, roughly drawing them to a scale.

Against the house, break- ing the rigid lines and corners, will he creepers such as Boston Ivy and Virginia Creeper. In front of this | we can put shrubbery or perhaps a | {tree or two and then flowers, per | ennials or annuals or maybe some spring flowering bulbs to go in next Fall, Generally speaking, the in- formal plan ig much the best, This will mean the taller growing plants like the dahlias, cosmos, glant zin nias, delphiniums, hollyhocks, an nual larkspurs and such things at the back, gradually tapering down to the little, tiny things like dwarf nasturtiume, marigolds and finally |olyssum, lobelia and other edging plants, There will be pains to lay ont, which should curve around the corners, or if there is not a reaton I make one by settinz out a group of thrubbery and winding your path {ahout this.

Tt might be applicable to any ofher country, A great number of characters are drawn clearly and with distinction, "Mun and His Universe," hy John langdon-Davies is interest- ing and stimulating to the general reader. The history of scienco is the history of man's search for God, says Mr, Lapgdon-Davies in his Introduction. He traces the development of man's conception ef the universo from primitive ideas through Ptolemaic and Aris- totelian wcience, Copernicus, Gall- leo, Newton and Darwin to Ein- stein and modern physics. The author hopes to ald in formulating a satisfactory philosophy for the genoral reader, Roger Vardon, the dNthor of "English Bloods," is the pseudo- nym of one of Ontario's successful librarians, Mr. Dela Fosse, of Pet- erborough. The book deals with the experiences of a young English "remittance man' sent to Ontario to learn how to farm. The book is autobiographical, contains no highly coloured fiction, but deals with realities actually lived by the author. The same beautiful qualities that permeated 'Memoirs of a Fox Hunting Man," by Seigfried Sas- soon, make the sequel "Memoirs of an Infantry Officer of Import- ance." It takes up the chronicle of Sheriston and carries it into the war. Among many fine war hooks it is distinguished for its literary excellence, "Riders of the Plague," by J. A. Tobey, the story of the advance of public health, and of the ach- fevements of men and women who, from ancient days to the present, have worked to free the world from disease, is told here for the layman, Great plagues of the past and early attempts at sanitation. are described with the accounts of the work of many individuals who aided in bettering conditions. The three closing chapters aro on the new science of nutrition, the art of living sanely, and lengthening the span of life, "Claudia," by Arnold Zweig, is an earlier novel than his "Case of Sergeant Grischa." It ig made up of episodes in the courtship and marriage of a young professor and a cultured German girl, Claudia fs a sheltered, over-sensitive char acter, unable to face life squarely, whose development through emo: tional and mental adjustments is revealed with delicacy and fine perception, Other new books reccived: "Iif- ty .Games of Solitaire," by P.

STERILIZED BOTTLES BRING YOUR DAILY MILK SUPPLY FROM BEATON'S DAIRY Sterilization is an important factor in ensuring you of a daily supply of highest quality milk and cream. In Beaton's Dairy this is done by the latest and most ap- proved machinery, the new soaker type bottle washer and sterilizer, installed three months ago. After Soaking in a soda solution for ten minutes to soften or dissolve any foreign matter each bottle is subjected to four dif- ferent high pressure sprays of another scda solution, thus making sure that every particle of foreign matter is removed. Then follows a rinsing in clear water, and finally, to complete the process, each bottle is thoroughly rinsed with sterile water. From this pcint the bottles pass on a conveyor to the filling and capping machine. From the time the bot- tle is placed in the washing and sterilizing machine until after it is filled and capped, it is never touched by human hands. The process of sterilization is complete, Then, and then only, the filled and capped hottles are placed in cases and put in the cooling room, ready for delivery to the hundreds of Oshawa homes which are already showing a strong preference for the QUALITY DAIRY PRODUCTS FRESH EVERY DAY SUPPLIED BY BEATON'S DAIRY IF FOR ANY REASON YOU ARE CONSIDERING CHANGING YOUR DAIRY PHONE 700 Grease 4 custard cups and | For NEURALGIA Prompt relief from HEADACHES, LUMBAGO, COLDS, SORE THROAT, RHEUMATISM, NEURITIS, NEURALGIA, ACHES and PAINS Tablets | § Aspirin.
