always the result of a phosphorus and potash de ficiency once it appears it cannot be cured that sea son both of these elements can be added to the soil now in the form of a com plete garden fertilzer and will fix on the soil par ticles so that theyll be available on next years crop all flower heads of the phlox should be removed as they fade to prevent the formation of seeds these not only rob the plants of food and energy but self- sow themselves in the earth alongside the re sulting new seedlings are very vigorous growers and soon take over from the old plants unfortunately these seedlings do not re produce the true color of the variety but come in the original washed out magenta shade of the wild phlox which no one ad mires- this self seeding of the phlox leads many each year to suppose that their plants have changed color which is an impossibility at this time of the year the leaves of phlox plants start to become covered with whitish coating which we call powdery mildew a weekly dusting or spraying with an allpurpose fungi cide will keep this under strict control be constantly on the watch if your phlox plants are located near some lilac bushes which al ways seem to carry some of this widely prevalent dis ease allow chrysanthemums to grow from now on with out further pinching tall growing varieties will need staking give the plants a good feeding at this time with a complete garden fer tilizer spray or dust the foliage each week with an allpurpose fungicide to control fungus disease that causes loss of foliage many pansies and violas are getting leggy now they prefer cool weather which slows up their growth this is the time of the year to cut them back to two inch stubs to force young shoots for september and october bloom give a feeding with a liquid complete plant food containing a fish emulsion these are a very good sub stitute for the old time well rotted barnyard man ures which pansies and violas liked so much any shrubs with long drooping branches can be propagated by layering in deed many produce natur al layers when the branch tips happen to touch the soil many a time a forsy- thia bush will do this with out any help from the home gardener any lim ber branch can be bent over pinned down with a hairpin made of stiff wire and will root in a month or two be sure and keep the soil moist during this root ing period red spiders multiply in hot weather regular syr inging of evergreens and other plants with a strong stream of water from the hose usually discourages them if they do appear apply a good miticide yews are often attacked at this time of the year by the black vine weevil spray with an insecticide contain ing diazanon chlordane or heptachlor in many gardens during july the various kinds of ants start creating their nests especially in lawns a five percent chlordane dust will make short work of ants anywhere in the garden in two or three weeks they may start up their activities again a further dusting at this time will chase them quick ly away to germinate lettuce seed in hot weather mix it with damp sand and store for a week in the refresh ener pan of an electric re frigerator at the end of the week

such a field is shown here on the greenwood road near cone 5 pickering township staff photo establish new grading system for hogs by a a wall agricultural representa tive york county the new grading system for hogs has now been worked out it wont be used until next year but it is important in any swine bleeding program the new system in a way is more complex in that it rates a carcass by an index number rather than group ing it as an a b or c hog this index is used to calculate the price paid for the hog on the other hand the system is simpler in that the main measurement for quality is on the percent age of lean meat in the carcass things like length and body confirmation are not directly rated the quality index is ar rived at by measuring backfat at the shoulder and at the loin these measure ments are then used in a formula which includes the weight of the carcass to get the index number the quoted price wil be hogs with an index of 100 hogs with an index above 100 will bring a price pro portionately higher and family herald ends these under penalized the good new system price paid quality of 100 will be part of the is that the reflects the the carcass norman mathieson pub lisher of the family herald has announced that the 99- yearold weekly magazine aimed mainly at farmers will cease publication sept 26 mr mathieson says pub lication costs have risen steadily while revenue has declined in recent years until the end was inevit able the family herald is published by the mont real star co ltd mr mathieson said ar- j rangements have been made so that any sub scribers whose subscrip tions will not have expired by sept 26 will receive the free press weekly instead of the family herald the free press weekly is published in winnipeg by free press weekly ltd and like the family herald is designed mainly for farmers much more accurately than our present method the spread between good and poor carcasses will be much wider everyone in the industry has been working for this for a long time with the new grades coming in attention to quality is more important than ever a hog business next year turning out a lot of hogs with excess fat will find it very
