All varieties of dahlias should be planted by the second week in June. If the tuber does not show a bud, do not include it in the regular planting. Plant it ftomewhere where should it fail to grow, the gap will not be too noticeable. EVhen staking the tall growing perennials, and now, by the way, is a good time to begin, a better appearance is gained by tying each stalk separately to the stake than by tying them in a bundle and hitching them to a stick. Place your house plants in the shade of a tree with the pots buried in the soil. Geraniums, coleus. etc., may be cut back if they have become leggy in the bouse. Something net in the garden gives an added interest. Some novel plant or shrub will repay you many times in the pleasure nf anticipating its development. The first part of June is the time to make the last sowing of the late garden peas. During the second and third weeks of June soivings of early peas may be made. provided the soil is good and is not likely to become dried out during the summer. IVith a wealth of Spring bloom appearing so rapidly, and the mild pleasant ofay sunshine, there is an irresistible call to the garden, and a keenness of joy in the necessary garden work greater than is felt at any other time. The flowers, roses, and flowering shrubs that are to fol- low the profusion of ofay's beau- ties are calling for your care and attention now. Every hour of i11ay is precious in the garden. ~Ve must be there to see each of her beauties unfold, and to work eagerly that all her promise of later beauty shall be fulfilled. Every care of the lawn is nec- essary to insure that close, thick growth so desired. Clip the lawn frequently in ofay and June. Frequent moNings during the groiving season are highly bene- ticial as they serve as a good mulch Frequent clippings do aivay with weeds of the annual sorts as they do not get a chance to seed themselves and become nuisances. Any perennial weeds that appear, such as burdock, and plantain, should be dug out Nith a knife and the holes filled with good top soil and seeded. Gladiolus may be planted at intervals of ten days to two weeks from early April until July 1st. These late plantings wil] bloom during late August and September. Annual seeds may be sown as late as July 1st, with good re- sults anticipated.

Spread with chopped meat mix- ed with gravy and well seasoned. Roll the whole thing up like a jelly roll, and bake in a moder ate oven until the centre is cook e:l and the crust is brown. It does not pay to make the roll too thick. Serve with gravy, cut- ting the roll in slices like a jelly roll. Creamed vegetables are a »ice substitute for the gravy. As a variation cut the roll be- fore baking, and place each slice nn a greased tin. Put a piece of butter on top and bake 15 minutes in a hot oven. Serve on a platter surrounded by green peas or buttered carrots. Cream sauce goes nicely with this. In- stead of making one big roll, you could cut the dough into squares, place the meat in the niiddle, and roll each up before baking. Serve like old fashion- ed sausage rolls with creamed vegetables. Naina Singh's application for a building permit, and a letter from J. Canvardine, acting on behalf of K.
