cL BED RW. 8.10150 UI HOME DESIGN NO. 437 It is always very difficult to produce an attractive looking house to fit a 40 foot lot and still avoid a boxey appear- ance. However, our designer seems to have solved this problem. This small home has an excellent plan with virtual- ly no waste space. It would make an ideal home for a re- tired or childless couple. If heated electrically, the chim- ney with fireplace might be omitted if desired. Construc- tion is brick veneer but house could be built in frame. In- structions for doing so are in- cluded with the blueprints.

Although this has become the standard proce- dure for African violets, it is not generally known that a much wider range of plants may be increased in this way. Among these are the picka- the time of insertion, the same way. REX 2=GONIA Leai-Cutting Big Aid, Africa Violet Growth the leaf itself just rests on the)become overmature, they drop surface. Water the pot well at After- wards, do not allow the med- ium to dry out, and yet do not keep it too wet. Peperomias and gloxinias should be treated in to the ground and immediately take root with little outside aid. The bryophyllums or air plants produce young plantlets all around the edges of their leaves, if an old leaf is hung up in a humid place.

The Orono Figure Skating Club holds two sessions a week while there are three periods of public skating. A letter from residents of Park st. asking improvements in the condition of stfeets and back plant, some varieties of water lilies, almost all sedums, cotyledons and kalanchoes, Rex varieties of begonia, some rho- dodendrons, gloxinias, pepero- mias and the snake plants (San- seveira). Of course, there is more to this method: of propagation than just picking a leaf and placing it in a glass of water, as some people do with African violets, but the procedure is quite sim- ple. For the propagation of plants by leaves, a good rooting med- ium such as vermiculite, perlite or sand is most important. Place the medium in a pot, pan or flat jand insert the cuttings in this. |Since light is important in the development of roots, the recep- jtacles in which the cuttings are) with a fine mist every two or Propagating the Rex begonia varieties from leaves is an en- tirely different and more fas- cinating procedure. First, get a flat filled with rooting medium, tamp it down level and water it well, Then take a begonia leaf and turn it upside down. Next made several cuts across its large protruding 'veins. Now place ihe leaf right side up on top of the medium and peg it down with wire or place a few small stones on top to ensure close contact. Moisten the leaf} drop to the cuttings covering. three days. After about three weeks new plants will arise from the places where incisions were made. Allow these to de- velop lots of roots, then pot them individually. The snake plant or sanseviera has long thick leafy stems which iclothes, plantlets around the edges of their leaves while they are still on the plant. These little plants enough moisture, will start to send out roots and grow. Plants that grow from leaf usually fleshy leaves that do not suffer from exposure to sunlight and so, unlike normal soft-cuttings, they do not need any The leaf cuttings will need'no special care until they are well rooted, except for an occasional| spray with an atomizer.

"I question the engineers in de- signing the system with a six- inch main."" Mr. Woodyard also doubted the one could call the eight-inch main oversizing. "Have we the authority to tell the township assessor what he will do" said D, Simpson.. He jthen stated that the township has said it will assess the sprinkler system. To this Mr. Woodyard said: "They could have a lawsuit on their hands." Mr. Woodyard then stated that he understood the agree- ment was made with the knowl- edge of the OWRC. D. Simpson couritered that nothing to this effect had been put in writing. "Why was the water system put in? To serve the needs of the whole municipality and this it did not do with the six-inch main," said Mr. Woodyard, Mr. Simpson said costs had to be considered, "You will never serve the municipality if you are pénny wise and pound fool- ish," said Mr. Woodyara. a: Mr, Woodyard then called the discussion out of order.
