ary manufacturing industries of the regions through which it runs, Recent surveys indicate that food processing plants could be established in the areas, with the assurance of a plentiful and continuous water supply essen- tial to their operation. Also, development of potash assurance. A plentiful supply. of water is essential to these oper- ations. Already a Toronto company has leased 4,000 acres in the area to test the potential of the deposits. It is hoped that if tests in the dry southwestern corner of Manitoba prove it feasible, wa- ter from the underground source can be combined with surface water to provide sorely ded irrigation to the area.

WILSON LTD, REALTOR OSHAWA SHOPPING CENTRE RA $-6588 16 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, April 14, 1962 HOME OF THE WEEK YOUR GARDEN Tree's Purpose Decides Choice | By SIMON HAMMERSMA Parkhill Nursery, Peterboro. When choosing a tree for the home it must be remembered that some trees need much more room than others and that all trees are not lawn trees. Shade is needed in the garden and a suitable tree in the right nlace may become the centre of outdoor living. The larger trees such as elm, maple and linden are more suitable for the larger properties. The elm is admired for its sheltering branches and the Norway, sugar and red maples for their colsr and ability to grow into well formed trees but they are also rather slow growing. One of the fastest growing maples is the silver maple but it should be given lots of space and should be well away from sew- ers or disposal beds. If space is available, more lindens or basswoods should be planted as they are symmetri- cal and handsome in flower and foliage. The pin oak may be used for its graceful drooping habit and bright red fall leaves. Other large growing trees are: north- ern catalpa and Carolina poplar, the first one medium fast grow- ing and'a beautiful tree both for its leaves and bloom. Th2 Caro- lina poplar is fast growing and beomes ca good shade tree jwhere space is available. Shade trees for a medium size lawn can be selected from the follow- ing varieties.
