2.
duced Dr. W. R. Beattie, Senior
Horticulturist of the Agricultural
Department, who gave a talk
of great interest and information
on the storing of vegetables and
fruits for winter.

Fall is the best time to move
Evergreens, and also the best
time to buy trees and shrubs as
the nurseries are usually over stocked.

The use of "Compost" is very
helpful to both vegetable and flower
gardens, especially when good
barnyard manure is not avail-
able. Use bone meal with
organic matter. Plant Rye (or wheat)
and Vetch in the fall & place
under in the spring for Green
manure. This combination is
equal to 10 Tons of barnyard
manure per acre.

Use Lime only when the soil
is known to be acid.

Dr. Beattie could give no
concrete rule for getting rid
of moles. There was a "Round
Table" discussion on the subject.
