0001 1$ , 154 444 A, al I azd ~ AHg Ni at THE WEST VAN NEWS GARDENING CORRESPONDENCEDear Sir)--By the grace of God--the untiring energy of our Reeve and Councillor Elgar com- bined with unfaltering loyalty of 8 bunch of conscientious bus drivers, residents of West Van- couver, living west of Ambleside are enabled to still travel in relics of former motor buses. Were we not the unconscious victims of two or three obstruc- tionlsts, who apparently will a- gree to rothing that will assist the populace living in the most beautiful part of this municipal- ity to reach the ferries in com- fort or even with assurance- the situation would be ridiculous and would give us cause for mirth, perhaps accentuated by the pathos exhibited by some of our summer visitors and the sar- casm that veils their daily re- marks--and who is there that can blame them? Now Mr. Editor; we know the ferries can be run at 8 proiit and we are convinced that the pres- ent ferry manager -- with the support of our Transportation Councillor--will leave no stone unturned to show 8 surplus on his boats, therefore, why should the ratepayers be held up for the cost of operation--to ssy nothing about maintenance--of a trio of derelict buses with mot- ors that date back 15 years or more and which have become the laughing stock of every self-re- specting man, woman and child in West Vancouver. The remedy is at hand for im- mediate acceptance--we sre led to believe--at a fractional in- crease in fares. which, with the release of liability on the part of the municipality, should shortly enable us to receive a re- duction in ferry cost of trans- portation. But if this remedy cannot be accepted because of the obstructionist tactics of some of our councillors, then Sir let us insist upon an immediate plebiscite to determine whether we walk 10 to 15 blocks in all weathers, or secondly still climb into the groaning and creeking devices that are propelled only because of the faithfulness of a few boys who literally caress or curse the motors to make them go, or thirdly, accept the cheer- ful alternative of B. C. transpor- tation buses handled by our own drivers and thereby guarantee us transportation in comfort and security although at a fraction extra. We elected certain officials to municipal honors at the begin- ning of the year--some of them are big enough to try and do something--let us get in and help them i If some older resi- dents will commence this effort I will give every assistance cheerfully. Let's go! Yours very truly, H. B. STEVENS. July 18, 1930. CLASSIFIED ADSGARDENS and FOR SIOVING cmi BUILDIVG SUP- PLIES. Phone Wcca 17 or RccMcsce Phccs West ZTZR.

During warm weather the gar- den should be cultivated fre- quently to conserve moisture. We have mentioned this before, but it is so important that we take the liberty of doing so a- gain. See that the sweet peas are ' 'en plenty of water. A little nitrate of soda worked into the soil around the roots will im- prove the bloom. Keep the old flowers picked oif the annuals. They will bloom more profusely if you do. There is still time to sow the seeds of carrots, winter radishes, turnips and peas for 8 fall crop. The rhubarb plants will be bet- ter next spring, if given a supply of fertilizer now. If your early beans and peas have finished producing, 8 late crop of celery may be planted in their place, Mrs. J. B, R. writes to ask if bone meal supplies plants with0 necessary element, namelyphosphorus. It is entirely harm- less and will not burn. If used too freely it remains in the soil until used by the plants. Mrd. LOST Pcrcics Kitics arcssd 1)lib ssd 19th on Bciicowc. Apply IS88 Bcllcvcc. FOR BALE--18 fcca rowboat, S.fcca beam, $ 15.00.

The white growth on your plants ls un- doubtedly what is called mildew. It is usually caused by too much shade or lack of sufficient sir circulation around the plants. It is more prevalent after a num- ber of hot days followed by cool nights. Dust with dusting sul- phur in the early morning while the plants are still damp with dew. The sun will vaporize the sulphur and kill the spores. I.OST--Grdce Parrot, Rc»CNL Pbccc West 528R.

I suppose some people think there would be too much noise on it. Well, if they don't find the seats on the pier they will eit down on the pier anyway. Also if there had been seats on the pier the drowning acci- dent might not have happened for the man would have run into them. Let's have more police control on the pier and there will be less smoking and swearing. Let's have the seats for the visitors and the tired l)usiness man and permanent residents.
