Federated-Woman

GREETING from _ Lldfrs. D. Watt, President To the Members.

stltutos throughout Canada. Our Federation is destined to create a strong and powerful dmpstus to- wards national unity, It brings us logclther to study our separate problems and to 11nd a solution. for them. incidentally it is binding us together in a bond oftriendshlp and sisterhood extending from coast to coast.

This bond of sympathy ls more than evsr necessary in days when public speakers are openly stating that Confederation is toppling nnd are actually contemplating thepos- slblllty of a divided Canada. We have only to look at Europe, torn by intrigue and jealousy and scalli- lug with discontent nnd suspicirn. to realize what s divided Cnnudu would mean.

As s solid basis for this loynlly we have our own progzamme with its emphasis on love of home and country, and on its attempt to bring together in good-will nnd friendship,

This good-will between individu- als is the foundation of nntinnui and international good-will and it is only by its exercise that we can banter conditions. Let then, tho women -of our Federals Women's institutes of Canada stand together in undivided loynltyeao Confedera- tion .'l"hls should not be difficult for those whose programme is founded on love of Home and Coun- try.

. Federation of Women's Institut- es, however, does not necessnrily spell unity. This can only be mudo a reality through the loyalty to the Federation of every Women's ln~ stltute member in every province throughout. Canada.

OUR PROGRESS

IN GARDENING

Although dependent. upon plants for food‘nnr1 clothing, there is no nrblect upon which humanity in general is in such ignorance and of which it isso heedless as plant lilo. Knowledge of plants which rm.- passed by every dsy ~ls stran- gely lacking. People will 111163 under the some trees every day who couldlt for the life of them zell what kind of trees they were. The apathy towards grow-lug things, however, ls being dispers- ed by a remarkable grolvth of gar- dening during the last few years. particulsry in ornamental garden- ng, which seems 1c -be outstrip- Dill: vegetable growing in cities.

However. when n hlomo-owmer starts planting flower-s, a vege- table garden is very likely lo be prided before he is done. The growth of gardening interest has Ilcvfflfilled a knowledge of plants winch is constantly growing and will continue to grow as the value at lboth vegetable growing and ornamental planting secures recog- nition. Nenrly every su-burb now has its garden club. which ls, in grunt meaure, responsible for an ‘ncreasied. interest in growing things.

This increase in interest "a re- flected in the trade lists of seeds and plants, the glowing demand

proving. nn incentive lo growers to enlarge their stools: or varieties. In the vegetable garden we will now find scores oi’ varieties from which to select where, n few years igo. half n dozon would be the limit. The improvement in vege- Llbles and flowers has been rs- markuble, so now it is a matter of considerable study to determllno which varieties to grow, as each your brings in new ones.

Each garden now lbecomr-i a test plot, the gardener, with grow- ing knowledlzs and texpenlence, being more exacting -ln his dem- ands for the best quality seeds and plants of the most up-to-dnte 1m- p.cvml vnrletlm. in this connect. ion, a notnbook hung in a handy corner will prove n useful adjunct l0 the home garden. making notes in it of varieties of vegetables which have been the most reliable producers in your own igarden or that of your neighbors. It will serve as» a good guide to making out the seed order.

PROGRESS REPORT January 1st to A.prll 30th, 1925

{This is IIO let you know whut has been happening for the past four months. Some report shouldnnve gone oul ut the end 0f March, but Airs. Whit thought Ill better .10 whit until there was something dellnilu to lull yun about the coming Bien- nlul Convention.

1. Financial Statement.

As the ivhole programme for the your (ICIIBIIIIB on our income, the r0 port of the Treasurer should,_come first. This will be found aiéaohod at the end of this Progress sport. From this you will see that we had a balance in hand ol"$1091.0-l on March 1st, 1925; that $795.20 hus been received since; and that the total amounts to $1896.24, with- out any deductions for the cur- rent expanses of March und April. 1925. With this sum in hand, $1886.24, (loss certain current ex- penses), it would seem very, risky to assume the expenses of n nation- nl Convention meeting at the wes- tern extreme of this wide Domin- ion, but we have decided to go for wnrd with arrangements. The stric. test economy, however, will have to be observed. Further we are on- ly taking this big stop in the inter- ests of nationality unity, because we have every confidence in the good fnlth nnd support of the pro- vlnbes.

This is just a brletmesssje of sgement and good wishes to_ the members of our Women's ln-

rnn cnammrrnrowu cusnnm:

‘arrangements it has been consider- ed bost to hold this convention in Victoria, {BYIUBII Columbia. from June flrd to 27, 1925. The Provin- dlul Convention o! British Colum- bia is to meet during the some weak-the two programmes bolus mad, to dovetail, as far as possi- ble.

Without going into details which have notqet been worked out, lit u probable um the bnliness s»

ducted during the morning and that s combined prosrflmme "I" b" arranged for the llflernoono. P05‘ slbly the whole of Friday in that week will be given over to IIle F- W. 1.--C. programme. A final busin- ess session on Qaturdaysnorning. June 27th ,wlll‘brlng the Biennial to a close.

(b) Representation.

1n has ban: thought m be in the best interests of-the ‘F. W. I. C.‘ to have every province represented and to pay the travelling expenses of one from each of the nine ‘pro- vinces. This is going one step tur- ther than that of paying the ox pauses of the officers only. lt on- tuils the expenses of the officer! and In addition those of one per- son lrom each of those provinces which are not represented by an offlicfir. cg. Manitoba will b9 represented by the Presldot nnd Corresponding Secretary. Alberta will he repres- ented by the Recording Secretary. New Brunswick will be represent- ed by the Treasurer, Novn Scotin will be represented by the First Vice-President, Ontario will be represented by the Second Vice- Presldem and in addition: Prince Edward island will be represented by one delegate, Quebec, will be represented by one delegate, Sask~ mchewan will be represented by one delegate, British Columbia will be represented by one delegate.

in this way we ought to get the full ilmtlonnl viewpoint because oi’ having someone present from each province, This is n fsr better plan than thnt of paying the expanses of the officers only, us we feared might be the case a short time ago. With regard to the delegates from Prince Edward island, Sas kntchewnn nnd Quebec, will the Superintendents of these provinces kindly let ma‘ know st their ear- liest convenience who is to repre- sent. their respective provinces? l shnll then be able to arrange for the payment of their travelling ex- penses. Each of these represents- tives will make her own choice ns to route etc, the only stipulation being that she should be in Victor- ia nt the lnlsst by Mlonday night. June 23rd, and reudy for business on ‘Tuesday morning at 9,n.m. Be- sides the railway fare and sleeper your delegate will be allowed $3.00 a day for meals on the train, iravellng by the most direct route (without stopovers), and $4.50 a day during the tlve days stay in Victoria. lf aftrr your F. W. d. C. allot- ment has been met, your provinc- ial funds can stand tile expense of sending n second delogntq (in ud- dltlon to the one being taken at the expense c! the F .W. 1. C.) by nil msnns send on gxtra-dslegate. In any case, whether you send ono or two delegates, your province

will have two votes. This is to en- sure equal voting power for pro- vinces, large and small alike.

3. C .-N. E. Exhibit 1925.

IIJEIJIOTI have been sent to each of the provinces, pointing out to them tho publicity nnd settlement- vslue of u thoroughly representat- ive F. W. l .0. exhibit. The pro- ject is being favorably considered by all. Ono huge difficulty has been removed through the generos- ity of Sir ‘I1 W. Thornton who has generously offered to convey, free of charge ,ths provincial exhibits to and from Toronto.

it is sincerely hoped llint every province will have an exhibit at the 1925 Canadian National Exhibi- tion which will be held from Au- gust 29th to September 12th. Your prompt attonton to correspondence received from the Management of the iExhlbltlon will be gremtly ap- precluted.
