Hardware have red carpets in front of their stores to mark their Red Carpet Treatment Sale GUELP1 The price paid to producers of fluid milk should be raised to per cwt to help the loss of income these farmers suffer ed when the Federal Govern ment excluded from the sub sidy the portion of their milk used for manufacturing pur poses Walter Miller Chairman of Ontario Farmers Union Mar keting Committee said that the financial loss to most fluid shippers could run or mare this year There are very few in other sectors of our society who will experience such a drop in income nor should they be expected to Mr Milter said but neither should farmers be expected to take less nor is it likely they will accept the cut With the economy of On tario literally booming it is inconceivable that consum ers will object paying more for the milk they use as food than for the soft drink and alcoholic beverages being consumed at an increasing rate However Mr Miller said while it is vitally ne cessary that the consumer receives the end product at the most reasonable price possible He said the Ontario Milk Marketing Board should take steps immediately to in crease the price paid to the producer to at least per but at the same time regulate the markup between the time It leaves the produc er and the time It reaches the consumer IMPORTANT NOTICE Effective Immediately VICTORIA GREY TRUST GO ARE NOW PAYING for 12 for 345 on GUARANTEED INVESTMENT C Gehl to i TI Time To Replant Peonies Early in September peon- barnyard manure discarded are practically dormant and thats the time to divide and replant or set new varie ties in the garden The ear lier that you can do this in September the better Its true that the peony is one of the hardiest perennials in the garden once its established but newly planted ones can be damaged by cold if they dont have a chance to form new roots before the soil freezes solidly In choosing plants for the garden the kind to buy are those whose roots have three to five buds or eyes on each Planting locations for peo nies must be prepared well as a peony can remain in that same spot for as long as fifty years The soil in which peonies are planted should in one third humus Well rotted mushroom manure peat moss materials processed from sewage and well decayed compost are all ecellent forms of humus to use Be sure to avoid fresh manures or vegetable waste as these are breeding places for the surface If you have some older plants that have failed to bloom carefully dig down and see if the uppermost pink bud is within an inch or two of the surface If deeper than this now is the time to lift such plant and reset them at a fungus called which the right level Large plants causes the buds to blast and turn brown just before flow ering time At the same time as you add the humus thor oughly work into the soil a complete fertlizher at the rale of a large handful per plant One of the main causes of peonies failing to bloom is planting too deep You set the plants with the uppermost pink eyes or bud not more than two Inches under the surface As you plant be sure to firm the soil otherwise as the loose soil settles it may carry the roots too far under can be split into several di visions each of which should contain three to live buds The first winter after plant ing Is the only time a peony needs mulching We cover them with two or three inch mulch of a light ma terial This will keep the soil from freezing a few days longer so the roots will have more chance to become well anchored It will also help to prevent them being heav ed out of the ground by the alternate thawing and freez ing In late winter and early spring To anyone who likes peonies would suggest that they try the truly spectacular tree peo nies which are not really trees but are woody shrubs that grow to a height of four feet or more and may carry as many as a blossoms on a single bush However these are not quite as rugged as other peonies and are best moved in the spring with a ball of earth Tudor producing double flowers a lovely shade of sal mon and Elizabeth with large double rose red flowers are two of the better varieties For gardens that have room for several peonies there are other types which should be considered such as the ex cellent Japanese varieties the giant singles and the types CIAG INSURANCE pill the MIMVM t Cooperators
