WATER PROOF GLUE FIR : ae LE" The Haileyburian Thursday, May 18, 1961 Seedling Crop Safe From Weather 'In This Portable " There's little chance those pre- cious flowers or seedling vegeta- bles can come to harm when start- { ed in this fir plywood "indoor . greenhouse." Plywood's excellent insulating qualities are utilized in this port- abie conservatory so flower lovers or commerical gardeners can surely and easily control the at- mosphere surrounding their seed- lings. Heat and the _ all-important light are provided here by fluorescent tube lighting fixtures. Heat is controlled by bleeding warm air out of the greenhouse through partially opened doors if needed. By simply turning the lights on and off the grower can give his seedlings their required 14 to 18-hour "day". You might even want to buy an automatic timer switch. Since the greenhouse has its own atmosphere and light, it can be located in any cool room or a corner of the basement. In fact, any place that is a fairly constant 55 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Temperature builds up _ inside when the lights are on, but the location should not be so cool that Greenhouse' plants will suffer when the lights are off. Since fluorescent lights are cooler than incandescent bulbs, the plants are placed six to 12 inches from the light by blocking up their trays. They are lowered as they grow. An added benefit is that fluorescent lights use less power so are cheaper. If extra heat is needed, you can hang an ordinary bulb or two inside. The greenhouse illustrated has an upper and a lower growth chamber, each completely inde- pendent of the other. This par- ticular unit is six feet long (in- side measurement) so it will ac- commodate a-standard six - foot fluorescent fixture. It can be built, of course, to employ two, four, six or eight-foot fixtures. These are standard sizes. It could also be a three or four storey af- fair. As shown, the greenhouse has two fuli-length doors on both the upper and the. lower growth chambers for easy access to the trays of seedlings. The doors are arranged so that they can be left open any amount from a crack to wide in order to control the Start planning now! Mail the coupon for free literature.

Cathcart, Minister Rix-Athabasca Proceeds with Cobalt Mining Rix-Athabasea . Uranium Mines Limited, a Rio Tinto Group com- pany, will proceed with its pro- gram of development in the Cobalt, Ontario, area, it was announced following a board meeting today. Work centres on the silver prop- erty of the United Cobalt and in- some 250 feet and driving a cross- cut approximately 1,000 feet to reach ore intersections located in a vein structure. - The previous phase of the work at United Cobalt consisted of re- activating the old 850-foot shaft sunk in 1908, and drilling for fa- ourable structure. A highgrade in- tersection.was followed-up with a crosscut for more detailed drilling, the results of which have produced the decision to proceed with devel- opment work for access. In addition to the original high- grade intersection, eleven holes have been drilled through the structure, nearly all of which pro- duced silver values. However, re- sults were erratic, as is character- istic in the silver veins of this type, and it was considered that further drilling should be suspend- ed in favour of development work. Additionally, crosseutting at the lower horizon will have some ex- ploration value. Rix-Athabasca will use, as its mining plant, equipment original- ly employed in its uranium mining operations at Beaverlodge. Annuals Ideal Annuals are ideal for filling empty spaces which have been oc- cupied by spring bulbs. They may even be pianted above bulbs, ac- cording to Ontario Department of Agriculture horticulturists. feat exactly. - As an added convenience the two two-by-fours through the centre of the greenhouse are ex- tended past the end and shaped to handles. This makes it an easy job for two people to move the unit. The corner two-by-fours ex- tend past the bottom and act as small legs so air can circulate around the box. The trays shown are designed for this six-foot model. All fir plywood used is half- inch. Structural members. are two-by-four or two-by-two as_ in- dicated.
