the horticultural lecture given by a h moore in ratcliffs hall on friday evening was greatly appre ciated by all those who were for tunate enough to be present the lecture was brimful of useful infor mation put in such a way that all could understand the delivery was excellent and the great variety of colored views were all that could be desired the following are a few of the points gathered from mr moores comprehensive treatment of his sub ject 1 roses require a cool moist soil from 50 to 75 of clay dark colored soils are too warm and sandy soils are short on moisture content 2 soil should be prepared in sept or oct previous to planting and should have fresh cowmanure dug in deeply only well rotted manure should be used in case of spring fertilizing horse stable manure should be avoided as it generates heat in the soil 3 the surface should be kept cultivated to admit air and moisture and encourage the work of nitrify ing bacteria 4 hybrid teas and hybrid per- petuals are most desirable for our purposes being hardy profuse and perpetual 5 the roots of nursery stock should always be placed in water for a few hours before planting and plants that appear shrivelled and be yond recovery can be fully restored by being entirely buried in moist soil for a week or more 6 in planting the roots should be given ample space and spread to radiate in all directions the moist soil particles should be brought into close contact with every rootlet 7 the point of junction of stock and scion shouldbe two inches be low the surface of the soil s thoroughly saturate the soil after planting s hybrid teas should be spaced with the churches presbyterian church rev george extence is expected to preach next sunday at usual hour 230 pm christian church edgar morton pastor sunday oct 3rd a great

centering around the local grain market which is commencing to move now the harvest season is about over alslke is causing the greatest sensqtion and any farmer with a good crop is able to make a real scoop with this grain local market price is 15 to 1550 per bushel which is the highest point reacned since war days ambroselewls of markham township hadn splendid crop and his pay check when he brought in the gralnvns 1700 from the local buyer alfalfa which earlier in the sea son promised to return from ten to twelve bushels to the acrels thresh ing out at eight bushels to the aero the price of 10 per bushel is so high however that any farmer with this seed for sale is being com- pensated for any shortage through po6r weather by a good stiff price wheat is bringing 120 to 125 bushel and sweet clover 5 these prices on the local grain market arc extra high and will help compen sate the farmer against some of his other losses this past season 2 apart each way and climbers at a minimum of 8 10 failure to prune severely is the outstanding fault of amateur rose growers 11 the weakest bushes require the severest pruning as his encour ages greater vigor in the plant 12 pruning should be done to within 2 or 3 inches of the point of grafting 13 the hybrid teas reqire more drastic pruning than the hybrid perpetuals x 14 in the case of climbers the third year canes should be cut out immediately after blooming also the weaker growth of this year should be cut out in the early spring leaving about six strong canes 15 never hollow the surface of the soil about the bush as damage in
