Generally speaking, ferns should be kept separate from other fiowers as the treatment necessary for their successful culture is entirely different from most fiowerlng plants. They re. quire a moist acid soil either naturally or artiiicially so, par tial shade and plenty of leaf mould. The soil should not be too spongy as would be the case if too much leaf mould is work- ed into the soil at too great a depth. The leaf mould should only be worked into the soil to s depth of about three inches with a good layer of it on the top to retain the moisture in the soiL Some few varieties will grow in full sunshine even in dry places. Next week we will give a list of ferns suited to the garden.

Many of these are 0 distinct addition to the garden. A few of them,among which are the pam- pas grass and giant reed, are really too large for the ordinary city garden. A few of those which are suit- able for the average garden are the Japanese Eulalia (miscan- thus sinenses) with green leaves; the Striped Eulalia (hL sinensis variegatus) with leaves striped with yellow running lengthwise of the leaves, the zebra grass (M. slnensis zeb- rina) with yellow stripes run- ning crosswise of the leaves, the Maiden Grass (M. sinesis grscil- lima) with narrow leaves with a silvery midrib; the hardy foun- tain grass (pennisetum japoni- cum Trin.), the purple fountain grass (P. ruppeli Stand.). the white fountain grass (P. Iongi- stylum) and the bamboo (Bab- busa).

DEFAULT PAYMENT ON BRIDGE BONDS City and District of North Vancouver are in trouble over their guarantee of Second Nar- rows Bridge bonds. Default is threatening, and a temporary default has already taken place. Under the guarantee, the North Vancouver district is ob- ligated to the extent of 812,500 in respect of bridge bond inter- est payments as at March 10, and the City of North Vancou- ver is similarly obligated to the extent of 88,750. This is the first time that these municipalities have been called on to meet their bridge bond guarantees. When it became evident early in March that some dIIIIculty might be experienced in secur- ing the bond payments, the Montreal Trust, on behalf of the bondholders, made representa- tions to the two municipalities with regard to the obligations. Meantime the bond interest has not been paid. Meetings of rate- payers are being held to canvass the entire situation. The District of North Vancou- ver has met all its municipal bond obligations, but the North Vancouver City is in temporary default in the half-year's inter- est on ferry bonds, the principal of which amounts to 6128,000. It is believed by bondholders, however, that ferry bond inter- est may be paid in course of time. The municipality is in a quandary over the indecisive policy of the Provincial and Fed- eral governments with regard to unemployment relief payments. Moneys, it is stated, have not come forward. The treasury de- partment of the municipality hardly knows where it stands. They have not been able to strike their tax rate, and can not do so till they know just what money they will need. Meantime, without assurance of adequate tax collections, the banks are withholding their usual credits, and it is for lack of them, it is stated, that the City of North Vancouver has temporarily defaulted in its ferry bond interest payments. A Matter of Economy Bobby had received no promo. tion for the new term, and with the ides of breaking it gently to his father said: "You'e 0 lucky man, dsd.» »How is that?" "Well, you won't have to buy me any new books this term, I'e been left in the same class."
