Ingersoll Br»» JpB© To-daysGarden-Gr a phBy DEAN HALLIDAYReleased Dy Central Press CanadianVictory garden sweet corn en­thusiasts frequently make, the mis­take of planting corn in one or twolong rows, along the edge or acrossthe back of the garden. When thispractice is followed there Is dangerthat the corn will not be properlypollinated.The better plan is to plant sweetcorn in blocks, as illustrated in theaccompanying Garden-Graph. Thepollen is produced on the corntassels and as the silk extends be­yond the immature corn ear, it isnecessary for the pollen of eitherthat plant or an adjoining plant tofall on the silk in order to fertilize it and to produce a kernel of corn. There is one silk for each kernelof corn and in a perfectly pollinatedsilk, the result Is a perfectly pol­linated ear.Often when the corn Is plantedin a single row, the prevailing windmay cross the row at the time th*pollen is falling and carry it awayfrom the silk. This will result ina lack of pollenization and mean,sad to say, no sweet com ears.It you wish to enjoy sweet cornall summer, make successive plant­ings. A planting every 10 days ortwo weeks is a good rule.Corn is a heavy feed and can befed rank fertilizers more safely than most garden crops.

But it is also the month when many people are thumbing over seed packages. This year' there is as great a need as in the past two years for more individual garden plots. Many of us in Ontario already have the Victory Garden habit; we like to see things growing and we like to grow our own. Hospitals are taking a tip from Victory Garden enthusiasts by using gardening as a healing means of rehabilitating disabled veterans.

Consequently, there are a good many people who are disappointed, though these people should not have expected too much, especially in view of the war against Japan being intensified rather than eased at this stage. Moreover, restrictions in Canada will have to be balanced with the needs of supply in other United Nations as well as devasta­ ted Europe. In other .words, man­ power and materials must be con­ trolled to a certain extent for a cer­ tain time in order to create such an economic balance so that officials in Ottawa stress now a need by the common man and woman for consid­ eration of these factors. Thus, re­ laxation of some degree may be ex­ pected in certain directions as con­ ditions permit, whether this will in­ volve luxury or necessity being no longer a consideration. This was shown only lately in the disclosure that sugar was in short supply now more than at any time during the war in Europe. This was shown in the hint that gasoline’ restrictions may be ’eased considerably in time. This was shown in suggestion that liquor distribution may be made more liberal soon. This was shown in the extension of some control only lately over clothing and textiles since these are needed badly in Eur-i ope. In short, relaxations will comcj in some directions ‘but controls or j powers in addition to restrictions may in others. Generally, it is expected that relaxations may be a fact more and more in efforts to" help housing, such as greater release of steel, wood, tin, hardware and . so forth, but it is not expected that much relief may be forthcoming for at least a little time in the fields of clothing, textiles and food, especial­ ly since these are in greater demand to-day than ever before both at home and in Europe. Indeed estimates of food supplies moving into civiliaji consumption in Canada during the last twelve months period, accord­ ing to the 'latest information in Ot­ tawa, do not show any material changes from the previous twelve months except in fruits and veget- ableh where better than average crops together with greater imports resulted in the substantial improve- EVIL POLITICAL PRACTICES Strongly suggestive of the heat of the coming political campaign is the stem caution in Ottawa that padding of electoral lists or wilful omission of names from these lists will be punished according to the letter of the law. This is the warn­ ing given in Ottawa to enumerators or rural and urban constituencies across Canada, with a high official pointing out that such a practice is a criminal offence and will be treated as such, recalling that in a by-elect­ ion held since the last general elect­ ion four enumerators were fined no less than 5500 each for padding lists and 80 others were forced to forfeit their fees. CANADA AND PEACE PATTERN 5 Behind the tremendous work ac- : complished by Canada’s delegation at the World Security Conference at San Francisco, there have been many deeds which -were not fully, nor properly revealed to the man-in- the-street across this country, ] though these achievements of this ' delegation composed of practically all political parties in the House of Commons are recognized along Par­ liament Hill.

Logan, Mrs.* ’ ’ Miss Eileen Ever wonder how the ‘best drew*ed girl’ in town earns her title?We put a few questions to one‘best dressed girl’ we know. First,she says, is knowing what suits yoi*and choosing your wardrobe accord­ ingly. Don’t be led astray by the cur­ rent fashion unless it becomes you. Second, make the most of your ward­ robe. Combine odd jackets and skirts cleverly, add a fetching scarf, or smart piece of costume jewelry. Third, a few colours are best, sho tolls us. Choose those that show each other off well. Fourth, when you shop for a suit or coat pay for quality—then you can afford to have a tailor remodel it later on. And do buy several pretty, inexpen­ sive blouses, the kind that can be easily washed at home in mild, safe suds. Next, choose hats that have basically good lines—and hers are often surprisingly cheap. Ever » often she buys an extravagant item, bracelet, hat or handbag, becanso it does something for her, makes her feel glamorous as she looks. And last but pot least, is good grooming, that little extra care that makes so much difference—shoes polished ahead of time—dry cleaning up to date, stockings luxed nightly, make-up fresh looking. Takes no more tim but pays in results, she tells us! Special Mother’s Day servieglwere held in Banner Church dSSunday, May 13.

Theywere married in the church, with Tony'smother and sister, as well as their manyfriends present After the ceremony.Nora Fields gave a reception at herhome. From there they left by car tospend their honeymoon at Asbury Park.Tony writes a play with the aid ot GloriaHavener and it is produced at the LittleTheater. Barbara Is angry with Tonybecause he had provided front rowseats for his mother and sisters but hadforgotten about his wife. This and manyother things which had happened latelypiqued Barbara. She is very unhappy,even though the trail of Tony's play hasmet with an ovation. When the producerwires Tony his play wlU be accepted ifit Ilves up to Act 1. he quits his Joband Barbara—now an expectant moth,er, is forced to support him. She quar­rels with him for gadding 'about In­stead of working on his play, and thentells him she is sorry. "That's all right,” InterruptedTony cheerfully. “I don’t blame youfor getting fed up, Barbara. I shouldhave got wise to myself before this.It’s natural for you to want to con­trol the purse strings when you’remaking the money. Mother saysyou have a perfect right to Insistnn it.”"You’ve been down to your moth­er’s?”"Yep,” said Tony, "and you don’t need to worry about my spending,your money from here on, Barbara.Mother let me have two hundred dol­lars. Of course I’ll pay her backwhen the play goes over,” said To­ny.Barbara was furious. "If it ever does!”-“At least Mother wasn’t afraid togamble on me.” he remarked.The next morning she had scarce­ly anything to say. Tony seemed ina good humor, but he did not offerto kiss Barbara goodby when shestarted off to work and at noon hewas not quite natural. Neither was Barbara. They were excessively po­lite to each other and very formatThings went on like that for twoweeks, with neither of them givingan inch. However, having two hun­dred dollars. Tony felt rich.

He also bought Nessaa new blouse for her fall suit and he took his mother and Lily to NewYork to see Gloria Havener's newshow. He asked Barbara to go.”1 can't get off, even' if we couldafford it.” she said shortly. "Some­ body in this family has to work.” •Tony’s lips curled. "Tod bad youdidn’t ma-ry Martin Fagg. He’sjust your style.”"At least Martin pays his own wav,” she said.Tony was white. "Money’s moreimportant to you than anything elsein the World, .isn’t it?”Barbara’s eyes stung. "Somebodyhas to keep his feet on the ground.We can’t all be would-be artists like y°"Well” said Tony, “everybody warned you.” ."Too bad," muttered Barbara,"that our foresight isn’t as good as our hindsight.”She was wretched all that after- noon and night, thinking of Tony inNew York with Gloria Havener. Shestood It just as long as she couldand then put on her coat and hatand went downtown to the pictureshow. She kept seeing Gloria’s al­ luring smile, hearing her lusqiousvoice murmuring caressing words to Tony.It was after eleven* when shecame out and a light mist had be­ gun to fall, freezing as fast as ithit the pavements.

He turned on the smalltable lamp. Their eyes met. To- an expression about his mouthwhich she had never seen before."Hello, Tony," faltered Barbara. "Is it true, Barbara?” he asked."Are you going to have a baby?"She could not get her breath."Yes, Tony."He flinched. “Hank said so.That’s where I’ve been, over atHank’s room. He told me he’d betanything you were going to have achild.”"I thought that was one reasonyou left, Tony, because you didn’twant a baby, because you’d bate being tied down with one."“Well,” said Tony with’ a twistedgrin.

"But I did try, Barbara. That’swhy I never thought anything aboutspending your money, I was sosure I could give you the earthwhen I finished the play.”Barbara was weeping again. "Iwas a rotten sport. Tony, to makeyou think I begrudged the money.I have been a rotten sport abouteverything, your friends and yourmother and sisters; everything. Ihave been jealous and possessiveand—and—” "You’ve been making the livingwhen you ought to have been stay­ing at home taking care of your­self.” said Tony in a savage voice.“If you decided never to speak tome again, I couldn’t blame you.
