Small houses, like small gardens, polsdbl charm. I lllll-lltv which leans to evade larger and more pretentious creations. And nothing will enhance the charm of a small modern home so much as a door- md gﬂden, gay with flowers.

While all flowers ere beautiful, gnd any constants-tiers of nature's colon will be harmonious, really gﬂmnlllﬂ effects can be developed by planting colors which harmon- ise with the house and its trim. For a house of buff or cream color, go; example, blue and white flow- s“ will provide a. delightful fore-

l'.n harvesting operations the manner in which equipment is used has an effect on the quality of the forage obtained. When each harvesting operation is performed consideration should be given to its effect on the crop and also on the subsequent harvesting or storage operations. says Wm. Kalb- fleisch, Field Husbandry Division, Emmi Experimental Farm. Ottawa.

It the crop is particularly heavy it would -be preferable to cut a narrow swath with the mower so that the windrow will slot be too large for uniform curing of the crop. On alight crop a wider swath would save time in cutting hay.

The raking or windrowlng of the rrop is an important operation which should be given proper con- sideration. If a windrow is of moderate size, straight and even. the crop cures more uniformily then in a large irregular windrow. Where the wtndrow has thick and thin sections the crop remains green in the bunches and over- rures in the thinner strips. More- over, large bunches in the wind- row may clog the hay loader and damage the machine.

When bsler or forage harvesters are used in gathering the crop. the vfwer foﬂnation of a wmdrovw is wen more important. Large bunches of uncured green material In s windrow, when baled, will louse spoilage in some of the bales F! hly- Where windrows are too imlll. time is lost in baler or Yvflee harvester operations. if the windrow is too large the machines u-e overloaded and valuable time i lost cleaning out the machines H" in repairing the equipment. irregular or bunched wlndrows re- mit in some overloading of the "lillilment and also variations in

small by ennusl shearing. Of the mowers suggested, petuniss should be started in a seed box. in the house, or in a hot-bed or cold frame. since ninety to one hundred days are required to produce flow- erlng plants.

-to move them to the garden. They

can be sow-n outdoors, however. and will flower in sixty daays. Sweet alyssum is easily grown from seed sown direct in the garden. A ccm- pact, dwarf variety should be used, and the plan-ts will do better if thinned out to stand at least six inches apart. When plants begin to grow "leggy" and flower; to be fewer. they can be sheared like a hedse.

Pasture Improvement

The principle of pasture improve-- ment has long been accepted. Yet the fact remains that out of the 1,891,087, odd acres of pasture lands in the Maritimes, the scre- age of highly improved pasture land is small compared with the over-all possibilities. These lands have a deﬁnite potential value more emecially is this true, when they are properly managed. Good grazing lands lend themselves to the p. ductlon of dairy. beef sheep and swine products at low feed unit cost.

At the Dominion Experimental Farm, Nappan, N. S., says W W. Baird, over a period of tvienty- four years, 1924.41, the average feed cost to produse a hundred- weight ‘of milk on grssa — June to October — was 99 cents oom- pared with $1.57 in barn - Novem- ber to May. During 1946-47 the comparative costs were 87 cent: and $2.09 respectively.

The results that may be ex- pected frcm improved versus un- improved pasture lands Ire well illustrated by- the information col- lected at Nappan over a period of eleven years. A pasture field of medium clay loam, which received 000 pounds of superphcsphate and K3 pounds of muriate of potash every tluee years plus an annual application of 100 pounds of am- monium sulphate, gave an average live weight gain of 4-4-9 pounds, on Shorthom steers, as com-pared with 219 pounds from an adioining field which was untreated. These figures indicate two important factors: (ll the low unit cost obtained on grass‘. (2) the possibilities offered by pasture improvement.

The general procedure in pasture improvement is by surface appli- cation of fertilizer or manure plus limestone. . . However. there are areas and conditions where the ploughing and reseeding of pasture land may he found expedient or necessary. Nevertheless, the major portion of the general run of pasture land may be greatly im- proved by surface application of fertilizer or manure plus limestone.

Where limestone is to be applied to the socl land, ‘light and frequent applications are best. At Nappan, heavy applications of limestone to the sod have depressed the yield for the first two to three years. No hard and fast rule can be laid down thae will serve all conditions. Therefore, it is better to discuss pasture problems with officials at the nearest Experimental Farm or Agricultural College. Give as much detail as possible regarding the soil. In doing so, state whether it ls wet or well drained, sandy, gravelly, clay or clay loam. It will also help to have something on previous treatments and its pre- sent productivity. ,
