The cold frame is a very valu- able assistant for the amateur gardener during the winter months as well as in the spring. Many small vegetables such as lettuce, spinach and radishes may be growff without artificial heat and if flowers are among your winter wants, and who does not want flowers during the win- ter months, a few violets and pansies as well as the winter !lowering azaleas may be planted in the cold frame. It is not necessary to make a large cold frame for the small city garden unless of course you wish to grow a plentiful supply of vegetables and flowers for the house. For the first year or un- til you have fully mastered the art of growing things out of sea- son we would suggest the build- ing of a frame approximately four by six feet. A visit to 0 house wrecker's yard will likely provide you with a suitable sec- ond hand sash in exchange for a dollar or two. Incidently if you buy a second hand sash it is ad- visable to purchase it before building your frame as the size the sash you can secure will haps be dii?ercnt from those ied in stock by dealers hand- ling new sash. If the cold frame is to be only temporary. say for 0 couple of years, it may Jje better to build the frame of one inch lumber. If it is to iyb of 0 more or less permanent, nature we suggest the use o 'two inch cedar boards. Howeve, if you own your home and cx ected to live in it for a numb of years, cement will) ~ provide the most suitgblc side walls for the cold frame, provid- ed of course that the location chosen is also permanent. A wooden frame can be easily moved but a concrete one will likely crack during the process of moving, Whether or not you usc the offe or the two inch boards wc have found that either one will last much longer if they are treated with several applications of motor oil which you drain from your car several times 3 year. Lct each application of oil soak in for a couple of days before ap- plying another coat. When building the frame it is advisable to make it about an inch smaller each way than your sash so that the edges of the sash will project over the edges of the frame and prevent the raiir from driving into the frame.

Ambi»I!du Tm Rnnmg.j Correspondence FOR THE BEST SLABS gud Iugldg Fif phone Wast 280Editor, West Van Newfh Dear Sir,-- In the interests of West Van- couver, I would like to know if the proposed dain on the Capil- ano River will give the higher level lands--say up to 750 eleva- tion--sufficient pressure for domestic purposes I have been informed that the new development proposed on Capilano River will not give ud in West Vancouver any better pressure than we gct today. It will doubtless bcnefit all portions of Greater Vancouver south of Burrard Inlet, but as the muni- cipaltty of West Vancouver is a partner of the Greater Vancou- ver IVatcr Board, they should without question be fully pro- tected under any new advanced projects on the Capilano Rive.", respecting water. The Capilano runs through our territory and I contend that no large under- taking should be made on that stream unless our higher level lands are taken into the picture. The best residential property in the municipality is above the SOO foot level, but these municipal- owned lands will not be valuable to anyone without ample water for all household purposes. Pumpirg to tanks was 8ug- gested by the writer during ne- gotiations in a recent land deaL That was not favored either by the engineers or the prospective buyer, and to the disappointment of many the deal was turned down, largely on account of no water on the north end of the property. I suggest that our position warrants immediate ac- tion. We want WATER in the mains not AIR. IVc must have abundant water direct from large mains, or reservoirs. We do not like the expense of pump- ing into tanks. and it is not in the interests of health to draw water for domestic uses from tanks. I believe in the Greater Van- couver Water Board but I do noi think the Board is looking 0- head, if their plans on the Cap- ikno River do not take into ac- count all lands in our district suitable for residence purposes above the SOO foot level. I tl ercfore, suggest that the mat- tfr ofWest Vancouver's water requirements and the Capilsno source of supply be fully investi- gated. Yours truly WM. BLAIR. FOR PAINTING. KALSOMINING- Apply C.
