Early or late fall has given better im- mediate results than mid-fall sow- ilngs for seeding grass on the prair- es. ~ I-‘ali seeding requires some cover on the surface soil in the form of annual weeds or stubble. Depth is best defined as merely enough to cover the seed. Seeding on fallow has too oficn resulted in loss of plants by the action of the wind. The great disadvantage is weeds present during the first year and fall seeding of grasses is best o.- dsipted for extensive areas in the drier parts of the prairies. These results apply best to crest- ed wheat and reasonably satisfac- torv with broma grass. However. peculiar a; it may seem. fall seed- ng is not so sattsfscory with le- gumes.

And thous- ands of people see the outside of that house to every one who sees the‘ inside. But here let me inject this: One reason why I am writing like ithis is just because there are a consi“ able number of beautifully painted and well kept houses-and even some barns-throughout the rural districts of this Province. which are things "of beauty and n joy forever", and these served to quake more noticeable those other buildings (in the majority) which are so down-at-heei and shy of paint. I wish there was some wav of showing the owners of the iat- tcr themselves "as others see thcm"-perhaps in a movie. But immediately after “your place as it now looks". another picture show- ing "your place after painting and reconstructing out-buildings." only we had some sort of a dictator ‘or a week or so who would compel people to paint up their houses and barns and tear down useless and derelict buildings, and fairs on their property into one neat, painted compact unit! About the only likely way I can think of accomplishing this “consumatlon dcvoutly to be desired" is-get the Government to promise a reduc-| tion of taxes to those who make these improvements. And now, at last, at the close of another eleven hours of almost continuous motoring over some hundreds of miles of P. E. I. coun- try. I actually came upon a man, in a small hamlet. painting a neat looking smallish house situated on a little elevation overlooking the village. It's now a gleaming white, and shows up like a diamond amid a heap of nondescript ordinary gray stories-for neariy_ all the houses and buildings thereabouts are devoid of‘ paint. "What kind of paint are you using?" I asked the man doing the‘ painting. “Jap-a-Lac", (This isn't an advertisement for any special kind of paint). "I find it's as good as any.” “And the roof?" "It's asphalt shingles — fire- proof." The roof was of a lovely light- lsh green shade and as there was a fancy window or two to the house and a modern veranda, theyhoie effect was simply grand and seem- ed the only building in that com- rnunltv to fit ln with its natural surrounciings—at all suitable to the God-given setting of nearby water, verdant hills, of those winding roads and shore-lines all in that soft reddish- brown, cocoa color, so peculiar to P. E. I.. and which seems to make green fields greener and blue sky bluer and shining waters have more of a. sheen. than anywhere Islander. Then I got the biggest shock of ‘ And n delight- ful shock at that. For the man ap- plying the paint tells me, with a wonderful light ln his eyes: "We're painting up to welcome our boy home from overseas-he's been in the war for three years. He's seen so much since he left and bringing home a young wife with him that-well. we thought he might be ashamed lf our place looked so shabby." "Oh! But he might be disa - pointed not to see it just as e left it!" "Not on your life! He'll be tickled to death to see the im- provement-hes seen so much since he left, ‘been about the world so. Anyhow, he's been sending some of his pay to us ever since he left, and we thought if we did this with some of that money it would be sort of investing it for him-the place will be his, any- how when we're gone. Most of the young wives and mothers here- i abouts spend all the war cheques- on gaudy clothes. hair ermanents and that, or foiderais or the in- side of the house, but my wife and I didn't believe in that-for one thing, it's been earned too hard. And this will last longer, and- and be sort of for him and his family, if he comes back." “Do ou think most of the boys, en they come back. will want to settle down right here at home?" l "I don't know about that. Though our boy says he will. And that's another reason why we want to try and make the place look as at- tractive as possible —— it will help induce him to stay.
