PHONE AVEST 212 GARDENS and GARDENING CADET CONCERT FAVELL ATTENDED It takes about 1,500 nuts to hold an automobile together, but it only takes one to scatter it all over the landscape. The cadet concert put on by the First National Band last Fri- day evening at Inglewood School drew a large crowd who had a splendid evening's entertain- ment. The band played fourteen piec- es altogether, bandmaster Parle being in charge in most of them, while H. Sara wielded the baton during the playing of the remain- der. Considering the youthful- riess of all the members, it was an excellent performance, and the audience evidently thorough- ly appreciated the program pre- sented. The band, showed at its best in the mraches, while the concert waltz "Daughter of Love" was very well played in- deed. Ernie Anderson pleased his audience greatly with 'his xylophone solos, as did the Mis- ses Marjorie Murray and Irene Gracey in their violin duet, and all were called upon to give en- cores. It is a matter of interest that two local boys, George Cas- lor and Cyril Haworth, are both members of the band. By NINA G.

The wedding to take place on June 29th at Jubilee United Church. June is said to be the month of roses. It is also a month of pests concentrating it seems on the rose. The following are the most destructive of the dis- eases and pests which attack that most beautiful of our flow- ers. The remedy for each is also given. Plant Lice (commonly called aphis) cluster in bunches on the bud and tips of the shoots. Spray with Black Leaf No. 40 early in the morning three days in suc- cession. Repeat whenever a new lot appears. Rose bugs may best be con- trolled by hand picking. A light spraying with water heater to a temperature of 120 degrees Far- renheit is effective in some cas- es. Red Spiders are those minute red bugs which appear on the underside of the leaves and make them rusty. Control by spraying the underside of the leaves with Black Leaf No. 40. Black spot and mildew is con- trolled or checked by dusting a- bout once each week with a mix- ture of one part powdered lead arsenate and nine parts dusting sulphur. To obtain the best results in spraying, it is best to follow a definite routine, but don't let your routine interfere with corn mon sense. If it rains heavily after dusting or spraying, do it again the first fine day. Keep the rose beds clean of all rubbish. Burn the old leaves. Dahlias may still be planted as may also gladiolas for late bloom. If watering is required, soak the ground thoroughly. Do not merely sprinkle it. Tall growing perennials should be staked before they are beaten down by rain and wind. They will present a better appearance if several small stakes are used rather than a single large one. A number of shoots tied in to one stake presents a poor ap- pearance. Cut off all flowers as they me- ture. Leaving them on takes a- way considerable vitality from the plant which might better be used to produce more flowers.
