rexall drag store stouffvillc ontario as fashions in exterior archi tecture change so do fashions in outdoor shrubs when used with good judg ment evergreens can set off the lines of a house to good advantage headaches may result in indiscriminate use small blue spruce for instance looks attractive in the middle of a small lawn but after eight or ten years growth you often find you have a white elephant evergreens popular evergreen foliage lias been popular of late because it warms up our winter scene where shrubs such as lilacs and spirea failed cedar is- about the only native tree that may be clip ped satisfactorily each year into attractive globe or colum nar forms you cant do that with native pines and spruce they grow too big anyway where pyramidal or colum nar forms are wanted the pyramid cedar burks variety of juniper or a columnar of juinperus scpulorum are most suitable for average canadian conditions in the more favor ed areas the swedish juniper is also useful if clipped lightly every second year towards the end o the season of active growth these can all be held within bounds and at maturity should fill a space four feet in diameter and eight to ten feet tall though they will- grow taller if permitted other good types for globular forms mugo pine or globe cedar are best under average circumstances some of the dwarf varieties of xorway spruce also grow in almost dome form and in more favorerd climates there are suitable varieties of chamaecy- paris the mugo pines will need to have new growths pinched in half in late june to keep them from growing straggly large rounded or loose forms are the thread leaf cypress various forms of cedar like ellwangers ver- vaen and wareana and pfit- zer juniper though this does not grow above four or five feet for low spreading mats there are several forms of juniper such as andora waukegan or the tamarisk- leaved forms of savins and several others they have diff erent foliage color and can be combined effectively the japanese yew has been left to the last because of its extreme value the evergreens previously mentioned are best grown on the sunny side yews will grow in shade as well the others have characteristic forms the yew can be grown in any form desired because it stands clipping as well erect forms can be allowed to grow into tall graceful masses or clipped into set columns spreading ones can be allowed to sprawl inform ally over a large area or clip ped to form globes or mounds yews can even be trained effectively as a flat fan against a stone wall they can be used to good advantage for many purposes except under very hot dry conditions where jun ipers are more at home fight for light in farm use the setting out of an evergreen windbreak often adds to the landscaping effect there is a tendency here to plant the young trees closer than recommended spacing or as stated in the planting manual goodwood thursday april a very good number attend ed the merry mixers bowling party held

last monday in the -school- house was a great success groups of the younger child ren gathered to dip elbow high in finger paint and spread their wierd and wonderful designs over the sheets of paper with fingers fists and hands they produced some very colourful and interesting patterns at a long table the older youngsters got well underway in the construction of animals and most had one ready for painting by the end of the afternoon finger painting and paper mache make engrossing rainyday occupations for children of all ages and even adults can get a lot of fun from experiment ing with shape and design it may be a good idea to give the parents an idea of the requirements for these two hobbies in case you are called upon to help some rainy after noon the paper sculpture materials are newspaper light wire paper towelling flour paste cooked or raw and bright paint bits of wool material cardboard buttons or any bits and pieces around the house will make perfect accessories for putting the finishing touches on the ani mals finger paint is very inexpensive and easy to make but make plenty they go through it very fast mix a cup of cornstarch with 3 cups of cold water and cook until thick and clear to this beat in two tablespoons of real soap flakes this helps it to spread easily and makes it washable if any gets on cloth ing and one drop of oil of cloves this is a preservative to keep the paint from sour ing add dry tempera colour which you can get by the pound from the hardware store or poster paint a water paint which is a little more expensive it is only necessary to get red blue and yellow the children can get all the colours they can think of from these three good luck we are sorry to report that mr arthur reesor is quite ill this week alrefd perry

they become older the folly of close- spacing is seen they become long and spind ly and if not thinned out will stagnate they assume a coarse wiry look with small tops and as such serve no real
