How do you get honey out of a honeycomb'' N.H. A. Commercial beekeeper, extract honey by centrifugal force in large drums that can hold 50 frames of honeycombs at once. After the honey cells are uncapped, the honey is spun out of the combs and runs down the inside of the -ex- tractor drum to a holding tank. The frames with the empty wax combs are removed and replaced in the hives for the bees to use again. The beekeeper does not sell the wax even though the price beeswax brings is quite high) because a frame with a plain foundation will yield approx- imately 30 pounds of honey while a frame with a comb in place will yield about y<l pounds This is because the bees don't have to spend time and energy building comb but can go right to uork gathering honey.

JLA", Winning Essays Advanced Academic Level Local government affects all of us as a commrurity every- day. These people are responsible for our environment. our waste disposals. local schools, police protection and roads. I think it must be a very difficult job to have to keep track of all of these things for all of these people. The Local Government is very important to us because it affects us Cult. We are closest to the government of our community. We have more power and influence on the Local government rather than on the national government. The people can go directly to the Local Government to ex- press complaints, and they probably will be taken care of. The Local government takes care of its people in a direct way and the people shouldn't be intimidated to go to them for help. Laura Sah•agna General Academic Level Dear Dir Anderson, D1y name is Bobby -Jo Heaps. I've lived in Pickering for two years. I recently lived in Scarborough. I am really impressed with local government compared with Scarborough. I really enjoy living in Pickering, I guess you can take credit for that. Just recent(• my friends and I found a racoon, we called animal control and they were very nice. They took our names just in case it had rabies. At least they cared. I was glad when you extended the dial -a -bus to Brock and Finch, in the new development. because I had no way of get- ting to work. I don't know much about local government but I learned more when I spoke at our school on career day. The only thing I don't like is the smell from the dump but there's not much you can do about that. I really enjoy living in Pickering and plan to live here for a long time. I hope you enjoy reading our letters, it also proves you're getting involved, with kids, as they say and "our future". Keep it up. Durham Bd.

July I, l". 7 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Celebrating Canada Day by Bob Watson This writer is one Canadian who believes in this country, and our way of life 100 percent and this includes celebrating our national holiday in a way that emphasizes our Canadian heritage. So it is a little disconcerting for a staunch Cana- dian to see companies closing down on Monday or Friday in order to work on Canada's national day. Wed. July 1st. We have a very voting nation in relation to other nations in the world and right now we are building this Canada of ours. Therefore, it is important to have some leadership to build a feeling of nationality. This week the Hon. David Crombie announced that there will be a holiday in February which he is proposing to be called "Multi-culturalism Day"' Terrific! But what about our national day. July 1st. Mr. Crombie. In our opinion there is over emphasis on multi-culturalism and not enough on Canadianism. which will never result in a strong na- tional spirit. We had it back in the forties and fifties. but with multi-culturalism we are destroying the chance to build a great nation called Canada. This is not an extension of Greece. Italy. Jamaica or Britain. This is a new nation called Canada. And in our opinion letting employees take a Monday off work in lieu of Canada Day is downgrading our national spirit. Surely people can get enough long weekends for their cottage and don't need to violate the celebration of being a Canadian. No Death Penalty ay Bob Watson Well, our Prime Minister has managed to persuade enough of his fellow PCs to stop the reestablishment of the death penalty for those who murder another human being. Instead we, apparently, are committed to spending hard- earned tax dollars to bousing such criminals in our jails and then sending then home after a few ynears of good behaviour (it is hard to murder in prison' 1. Our opinion about the PM's idea of voting on the death penalty was criticized by a reader named G. W. Stevens. Normally, his letter would not get into our paper because he or she gave no address. and we don't really know if he or she has another real name. However. In the interest of pro- viding roviding another viewpoint we reproduce his or her viewpoint below. Dear Watson: I just read in the Agincourt News that you did not Iike the P' ime Minister's view on capital punishment. My dear Watson, seemingly you have never read your Bible. In it you will read one of God's commandments. which is "Thou Shalt Not Kill". Isn't that enough reason without going any further? Innocent men have been hung. if one of them had been you standing there an the gallows, an innocent man. I bet you would mange your mind. If people were right in the head. they wouldn't do these things and we never know what -a* are gong to be like tomorrow, you or me. I could have pinned a medal on our Prime Minister when I heard him talk about it. God doesn't condemn people to death for wrongdoing. You can go to him at the last minute and be forgiven. Yes. insane men do kill, but doing it your way, the sane ones kill also. How horrible that there are men like you in our midst. I hope my mind never sinks that low' Signed., G. W. Stevens. We would like to question writer Stevens about how he feels about a murderer coming into his house and killing his wife and children. Or where was he or she during World War II when our men had to face the enemy and actually kill them or be killed themselves. Does he condemn this kill- ing act and would he let any enemies enter our land and do whatever they wish with no opposition because he would not kill'. This writer is very familiar with the Bible and has kept in close touch with God through constant prayer, but he knows that a person who kills another doesn't always regret the act and therefore will not get God's forgiveness - or mankind's. This writer went to World War [I and was armed with guns. but fortunately did not have to kill anyone. However. he was ready to do so. if necessary. This writer would de- fend his home and family to the death as well and not let any maniac killer win out - if possible! Ar Published every Wednesday by Watson Publishing Company Limited.

( Photo - Bob Watson) Market Value Assessment Market Value assessment has already proven of value and workable it has shown the unfairness of our present property tax assessment to the tune of $87 million. Outlying municipalities have over a period of 30 years subsidized the older assessed regmns mainly the Toronto Core area. The present prominent objectors Juane Rowlands and Councillor Kanter have been caught with too many marbles. They are running so fast they are raising a dust cloud. They hope to devise a new tax system they hope will give then new rules to hide behind. If the same discrepan- cies should show up again obviously they would not want that tax system either. "Market Value assessment is dead we are not buying it." It should be brought to the objectors all including June Rowland and Kanter the decision is not theirs alone. It is the various municipalities that have been wronged. Municipalities that are attempting to build up and expand. These municipalities carry their own burden of mortgages plus this header tax burden. Maybe the extra burden that was carred for the last 30 years to the tune of $97 million can be forgiven by these municipalities. but they certainly do not see that the additional contortion of figures should continue for the next future years. Rowland seems to be saying the market is too volatile and points to inflationary factors. She may not only be scaring herself she hopes this will have a deterrent effect on sup- porters. There is not a mathematical problem today that cannot be brought down to the lowest common denominator and averaged out to an overall fairer tax assessment on the basis of the market value assessment across the whole pro- vince of Ontario. Yours truly. Mike Boychyn 29 Calumet Crescent Scarborough .............................................................. Canada's Debt The total debt of Canadians, including federal, provin- cial, municipal, corporate and household debt is $965 billion. Interest charges on the federal debt of about $300 billion is $25 billion. Back in 1976 the government's share of total debt was 22%. Today it is 50%. Most of our debt is held by Canadians or Canadian companies, but there seems to be little drive to pay it off.

Bob's Notes .............. Energy Demand Increases Ontario customers used 9.3 billion kilowatt-hours of elec- tricity in April, down 1.4 percent from the year before. Peak demand for the month was reached April 2 at 18 million kilowatts, up 6.2 percent from the same month in 1986. Waterfront Properties Strong demand and a shortage of waterfront properties listed for sale in most major Ontario recreational arras have put upward pressure on prices in 1987. according to the latest Tom and Country Properties survey from Royal LePage Real Estate Services Ltd. Out of 18 areas surveyed, close to half reported a relative- ly low supply of vacant lots listed for sale, including the Barrie Sutton and St. Lawrence River areas. Export Revenues Ontario Hydro generated over $i million in revenues in April by selling an estimated 579 million kilowatt-hours of electricity to the United States. Last Bruce Reactor Completed The eighth and final unit at the Bruce nuclear power development was declared in-service Friday. May 22, one month ahead of schedule. The 800 -megawatt reactor brings the total capacity of the Bruce generating stations to 6400 megawatts, Smoking Ban In Schools Dear Sir: I read in your June 10 column about the public smoking being banned in the Scarborough schools. I readily agree with this decision although I am confused as to the prolonged waiting period. ( Column stating Sept. 19M0 It seems a waste to make a law and hold it until 1988 before it becomes effective. This is a necessary law and should be enforced as soon as possible. Why hurt these people by allowing them to follow this terrible habit. It seems the Boardroom President is probably puffing away on a cigarette himself to have such a law unenforced. Does he not realize we all must live with this problem until it is corrected. Unsmiling, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes.

Alderman Doug Mahood, a member of the board, says the price is still too high. Controller Frank Faubert says anything over $10 is too high for the area. But Alderman Maureen Prinsloo, who voted against the $15, says the new offer is reasonable.

The real telling of whether there will ever be a library in this area will be when the lease agreement comes to board of control and council for approval. Board chairman Susan Hunt said this is the last chance for a library for the people of this area. After almost four years of delay it is time to either approve its funding or scrap it permanently, Hunt said. It is not fair to the people of the area to keep them waiting any longer, she added.

We are astounded that you are proceeding now with this particular measure. Just six weeks ago the Standing Committee on Finance and Economic Af- fairs tabled in the House of Commons its unanimous report citing the possibility of substantial tax revenue losses to Canada and recommending recon- sideration of the IBC pro- posal. Later this week the White Paper on Tax Reform will be released. In light of these two significant developments, we believe that it would be wrong to proceed with the IBC proposal prior to the imminent review of the Canadian tax structure which has among its objec- tives greater fairness and simplicity of our tax system. In our view the IBC proposal as it stands could not meet these objec- tives. Throughout the long debate on this issue, as you know, we have always pro- moted equal treatment for all cities in Canada and urged you to let market force prevail. We are con- vinced that this is the only way Canada can compete successfully in interna- tional markets. We strongly urge you not to proceed at this time with clause 10 of this Motion, in order to allow an oppor- tunity for proper examina- tion both of its inter- provincial impact and its implications for the Cana- dian tax system. In the alternative, we urge you to amend the clause so that the legislation will apply equally across Canada. Sincerely, W.S. Campbell President Board of Trade of Metropolitan Toronto Blood Abnormalities Detected Laboratory Testing at revealed an uncommonly the Scarborough Grace high rate of hereditary General Hospital has blood abnormalities in the Mainstream Canada Wilson's tax reform makes the grade By Ann M. Smith The federal government ftrnl- ly got it right - That was the message being delivered by John Bulloch, president of the Canadian Fed- eration of Independent Business following the long-awaited release of Finance Minister Michael Wilson's tax -reform Bulloch, who is remembered around Ottawa for launching highly successful campaigns against two previous tax reform packages—Edgar Benson's in 1969 and Allan 1NacEachen's in 1961 —called Wilson's efforts a major victory for small business. And Bulloch is by no means alone in his praise of the minis- ter. More and more skeptics are stepping out of the closet to ap- plaud what has been called the "fundamental competence" dis- played by the current fiance minister and his senior officials—a dramatic turn of events from the days of Benson and MacEachen. As Butloch puts it, "Wilson used a scalpel to go after Cana- da's archaic tax laws while Benson and MacEachen used meat grinders." How, then, was Wilson able to develop this winning formu- la when just about every one of his predecessors has failed so miserably? Take, for example, the tax reform paper introduced in 1969 to the Canadian people by then Finance Minister Edgar Benson. Among other monstrous miscal- culations, Benson completely ig- nored the needs of the small business community by propos- ing a 50 per cent tax on capital gains and a 50 per cent tax on all small business corporations. As well, Benson kept capital incentives in place which gave major corporations an effective corporate tax rate of 25 per cent—half the proposed rate for small firms. The Benson pack- age was also overwhelmingly lopsided in its preferential ueat- ment towards bunks and insur- The outcome meant another easy ride for big business and disaster for small business. But the uproar caused by Berson in 1%9 was ap abed just 12 years later, by then Finance Minister Allam MacEachen, who once again outraged small busi ness with his disastrous tax reform package in 1%1. It was, in short, a fiasco and took a mere 18 months to go belly- up—as did its author's term as finance minister. There's a legendary story that goes along with the MacEachen tax reform package about a cer- tain Member of Parliament who was not only a fellow minister in the TnKkau cabinet but also considered to be a topnotch expert in the field of testi. In the fuhal weeks before the paper was released, this minister was dismayed—not to mention insulted—to discover that he wasn't even going to see the document until shortly before it was read to the Canadian people. Such bungling: were typical of the incompetence displayed by some previous finance ministers. By contrast, Wilson has relied heavily on the advice of tax experts in the private sec- tor in order to avoid the techni- cal problems which plagued the previous two disasters. Small business and taxpayers alike have reason to be optimis- tic. Wilson's tax -reform package is a clear signal that he under- stands our economy and, along with that, the vital role that small business will continue to play. And with small business' as- tounding record in job creation over the past few years, Wilson was wise in his decision not to put a cap on the single most powerful engine of growth in this Fountry. cF* re.wwe So - multiracial patient com- munity served by the hospital. Thehigh incidence levels have been turned up by in- vestigations for • thies." a group of diseases associated with the presence of abnormal hemoglobin in the blood. Audrey Whitney, Charge Hematology Technologist in the Grace's Laboratory. explained that detailed screening and testing by a labortory usually detects an incidence of less than t0 percent; but in the hemoglobinopathy pro- gram at the Grace, 6o per- cent of the blood specimens selected for further testing after an initial screening have been confirmed as henogbbirsopathies. Audrey cautioned that this does not mean that hemoglobinopathies are present in 6o percent of the Grace's entice patient cant- munity, but rather in 6o percent of those parsons whose blood samples pro- duced a telltale sign during 4 nitial screening. Still, the incidence is striking and the hemoglobinopathy pro- gram has proven to be a fascinating project with vaorthwhile benefits to pa- tients, Audrey said. Various sickle cell diseases and thalassemias are the main abnormalities being detected in high numbers at the Grace. Thalassemias are predomi- nant in Mediterranean and Southeast Asian popula- tions. while sickle cell pro- blems are usually seen in those of African descent. "These are genetic ab- normalities, nothing transmissible or con- tagious. But the advan- tages of the hemoglobinopathy pro- gram lie in the information we can provide to doctors," Audrey said. Genetic counselling is very important for affected patients and their spouses, she explained; the hematology procedure pro- vides doctors with informa- tion about the likelihood of the abnormality being passed on to children. Dr. Harry Chow, a Scar- borough family physician, said "The hemoglobinopathy reports are very useful because when we get positive results we have to delineate to the patient what the possible repercus- sions are in their Wed.

I really ap- preciate the Laboratory's comments and suggestions that corse back on the hemoglobinopathy reports.„ Hemoglobin, the protein which transports oxygen throughout the body, is con- tained in the red blood cells. it's a complex pro - tem, with one hemoglobin molecule consisting of 574 amino acids in a specific order. A change in just one of these amigo acids, in either its composition or its sequence in the chain, cats an abnormality. Sickle cell anemia is an example of an abnormality resulting f alt ram as en - tion in only one amigo acid. Alpha and Beta Thalassentia, on the other hard, do not result from a change in molecular com- position, but from a dele- twn or distribution pro- blem in the amino acids. Both may produce devastating health pro - biers. When Beta Thalassemta is present in its homozygous form, mean- ing the patient has in- herited the gene abnor- mality from both parents, it becomes apparent early in the person's life and is characterized by fatigue, pain, enlargement of bone marrow cavity, the heart and spleen, leg ulcers, an overwhelming anernia re- quiring constant blood transfusions, and a shortened life span. However, persons with the heterozygous form. in- herited from one parent on- ly, may be just carriers of Beta Thalassemia and without any of the debilitating symptoms. ".And these are the cases we are detecting in our pro- gram." said Audrey. PRIP. AVEMUTRE �p��q we= WT.

AL FRESCO: Fireworks have always fascinated and thrilled us. One can imagine then, our anticipation over Toronto's first international fireworks competition star- ting this evening at Ontario Place. Teams from Canada, U.S.A., France and Spain will be competing on the evenings of July 1st. 4th. 7th and 11th with a grand finale on July 15th. The magnitude of these displays is such that they cannot be conducted on shore but rather from two huge offshore barges. They are so big that one contains housing facilities for 23 people and has a heliport with perimeter lighting for emergency night landings. All shows are synchroniz- ed to music and are judged on presentation and scale. colours• originality pro- duction roduction values and the syn- chronization of music and fireworks. Each stow begins at 10 p.m- and must last for at least 30 minutes. We think it's a great ending to a day at Ontario Place. There are, of course, a whole host of other attrac- tions. We think of the Cana- dian Waterfall Showplace featuring the R & R stars of the Eos. Through till tomor- row it's Lou Christie and he will be followed by The Searchers. Del Shannon (yes. really!

The Kidd Sisters entertain at 8 p.m. The CHIN International Picnic is at the CNE grounds (more about it later) and how abort a visit to the Metro Zoo? As Torontanians we are somewhat inclined to take it for granted. Well, we're expecting some friends from out of province later this summer and the one place they definitely want to see is the Metro Zoo, such is its reputation. And, the zoo babies are so cute that old weepy Jack has to contain himself. AI fresco: it's wonderful! AT THE O'KEEF E: Ordinarily we don't review shows with only one performance. Every so often one comes and goes that is so good it should be mentioned in hopes of an early and welcome return engagement. Vic Damone and Diahann Carroll in their one show at The O'Keefe recently displayed abun- dantly that class still works; that good taste and honest presentation will always prevail. It was quite simply a superb show and quite superbly simple. They sang with taste and elan. Truth is we find ourself out of sorts with one reviewer who suggested it was slick. Of course it was, dammit! Our young print friend apparently hasn't Look out «orld here comes Laura Partland.

Of course there is the Summer Broadwav Show seri which started last ire t with Tommy Tune rn My One and Only. In addition• there are the Chinese Golden Dragon Acrobats with the Magicians of Taipei, Mitzi Gaynor and Tom Jones. We can promise that all of them will sound better than ever. The O.K.'s sound system is now com- pletely revamped and the sound in the theatre is all that it should be. We notic- ed that at the Vic Damone Diahan Carroll show, par- ticularly with the sound of the strings which in the past hasn't always been consistent.

We offer a salute to the Mirvishes. Fresh from its Tony accomplishments, their production of The Mikado won 7 awards at the recent Dora presenta- tions.

POST Page ' by Gay Abbate The second incident this year of unnecessary tree cutting in a Scarborough park is proof that the city needs a "Thou Shall Not Touch Trees" policy says Controller Joyce Trimmer. "We're no longer in the park business. We're now in the tree destruction business," said an angry Trimmer last week after learning that as many as 50 mature trees were somehow cut down from a yet undeveloped park on the north-east corner of Highway 2 and Sheppard Ave. E. The 30 foot trees were mainly silver birches, cedars and Manitoba maples. Residents on Calibre Ct. Report from Queen's Park Hon. Ed Fulton Mk istm of Tralmspabtio n and Conmmunkatiom , MPP Scarborough East 4 PAY EQUITY BILL GETS FINAL READING All three parties in the provincial legislature recently voted to support the Ontario government's Pay Equity Bill. The Government's goal is to respond to gender discrimina- tion in wage rates, while being fully aware of the need to maintain a competitive and vibrant economy. Attorney General Ian Scott said the bill is one of the hallmarks that "distinguishes our generation of Ontarians from those who have gone before us" and called it a law that corrects "a human and economic wrong". Bill 154 requires employers to review workers' salaries and identify any pay inequities in female -dominated job categories. Wage adjustments must then oe made to com- pensate the underpaid employees. Under the legislation job comparisons should include skill, effort, responsibility and wonting conditions. Even though jobs have been found to be of comparable value. dif- ferences in pay will be alkwied for certain reasons such as seniority. temporary training assignment -s, merit pay and skill The bille s employers in the private sector with 10 or more employees and all public sector enpk"rs, including hospitals, colleges and universities, synod boards and municipalities. It will cover more than 97 percent of work- ing women in Ontario and apply to both full-time and part- time employees. "This is an historic day... said Mr. Scott, who is also Minister Responsible for Women's Issues. "At long last women will be paid on the basis of the value of the jobs they perform. For too long many of those doing work traditional- ly performed by women have been denied the compensation to which they are entitled. Premier David Peterson joined in, saying Ontario's Pay Equity Bill is "a very significant step towards bringing true economic equality between mel and women." and a "pioneering first" in North America. SEVERANCE PAY GUARANTEES FOR ONTARIO WORKERS Ontario workers will enjoy greater protection as the result of proposed changes to the Employment Standards Act. Labour Minister William Wrye recently introduced legislation that will extend the right to severance pay for workers affected by layoffs and terminations. Under the legislation, any individual worker with five year's employment at an enterprise with an annual pay roll of at least $2.5 million will be eligible for severance pay in cases of termination of lengthy layoff. Also, the notice-of-teTmination period that employes would be required to provide to individual or groups of workers will be lengthened. The worker, community and government mast also be in- formed on why a mass layoff is taking place: what the un - pact will be, and what the employer is prepared to do to help the affected workers. Mr. Wrye said the changes "will bring a new measure of economic justice to working men and women in this pro- vince.,' Workers laid off or terminated as of June 15, 1987 are covered under the legislation. COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES Serving the people of Scarborough East at Queen's Park not only involves my legislative duties but also maintaining my contact with you, my constituents. I have had the oppor- tunity to meet with many of you over the past week at several riding events including Guildwood Day, where I saw many friends at the pancake breakfast; and the Highland Creek Community Association's annual Heritage Day where I enjoyed participating in the parade. In recognition of June being Senior Citizen's month, 1 have also visited with many of Scarborough East's finest citizens. I enjoyed having lunch with the members of the Pine Tree Senior Centre, drinking tea at the Metro Legion Village, and visiting with friends at the Drop -In for seniors at the Port Union Community Centre.

They say they saw city staff marking which trees were to be cut down. Ward Alderman Edith Montgomery says the mat- ter is being investigated and she hopes to find out exactly what happened and who is responsible for the trees being cut before the issue goes to the city's recreation and parks com- mittee meeting next week. Montgomery says there was no need to cut down any trees because the park is to be a passive one with no sport facilities. McKenna says some trees would have to have been cut anyway because of the installation of sewers to take excess rain water from the park. Trimmer and the residents say there is no drainage problem on the site.

July 1, 1987 Lifestyle Influences Fabric Choice by Catherine Jablonski a Much of the attraction and excitement of upholstered furniture comes from the colour, tex- lure, and patterns of the wonderful world of fabrics. There is an infinite varie- ty of fabrics and their characteristics significant- ly affect the cost of _ upholstered furniture. The fabric you choose to cover a sofa or chair will be influenced by your lifestyle. You will need to take into consideration the fabric's construction. where it will be placed in relation to sunlight, and the demands from children. pets or entertaining. • Basically, the harder the wear expected, the more durable the fabric should be. Natural fibres are often beautiful and long-lasting, but many of the new generation of synthetic fibres offer both outstan- ding appearance and easy - care qualities. Some fabrics blend natural and synthetic fibres together - a combination that can unite the best of both. Look for performance -tested blends with an established track - record. When checking your upholstery. look closely at the fabric label. The fibre content will be listed in descending order of con- tent. Therefore the fibre listed first is used in the greatest amount. Label in- structions are also usually Frovided for fabric care. ollow these instructions carefully for the best possi- ble appearance -retention. You might also check into the use of soil -retardant treatments to protect the fabric. The following outlines some of the most common- ly used upholstery fabric fibres and styles used to- day. Among natural fibres. cotton remains one of the world's most popular choices, favoured for its strength, ver- satility, and durability. Flax, silk and wool are also chosen for their lustre, tex- ture and "hand" or feel characteristics in addition to their ability to hold colour ex- tremely well. In the syn- thetic family. nylon is the fibre superstar known for its strength, long -wearing ability and high - abrasion resistance as well as its good cleaning characteristics. Rayon is economical and extremely ver- satile, strong. Mable and col- )urfast. When lended with fires such as icon. rayon is .iso very durable. is nCe known Acetate for its lustrous touch and its excellent dying capabilities. Similarly. acrylic dyes and cleans well and will retain shape and pleats. Acrylic is often found in velvet f and plush fabrics. LL Olefin is ex- tremely strong and durable with high /1, resistance to soil, stain and abrasion. while polyester is most like natural cotton in 11 appearance and physical proper- ties. In addition to fibre content, the type of fabric style will also be influenc- ed by the demands and the design of your home. When textural interest is desired, cut or uncut pile fabrics, cor- duroy, or brocade might be a considera- tion. Other fabrics might be chosen for their Monday 1:00 p.m. -':'00 p.m. Tuesday 9.30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. Wednesday 9:30 a.m.-7:00 P.M.

Fertilizer Recount Dear John: The numbers on the fertilizer bag do not compute. What gives? Dear Data Doubter: The numbers on the bag describe the ratio of nutrients - nitrogen (N) , phosphorus (P) and Dear J John Deere Answers Your potassium (K) . The N -P -K content is given as a percentage of the total weight of the bag. In a 35 -pound bag labeled 15-5-10, there are 5 114 pounds of N,13 / 4 pounds of P and 3 11 pounds of K.

For different lawns the numbers may vary, but the N -P -K ratio should be about 3-1-2. Some fer- tilizers might contain a greater amount of nitrogen - which is good for lawns because it promotes green grass. Does that add up? Dear John: My uncle gave me his old power tiller, but the operator's manual was lost. Do you have any tips? Dear Lucky Relation: Cultivate the acquaintance of a dealer who handles the brand and see if he can dig up a manual for you. Most can for a nominal price. You'll want a manual for maintenance information. Meanwhile, follow these tips for effective tilling: • Wear close -fitting clothes and hard, closed -toe shoes when tilling. Keep children and pets out of the yard. • Steer clear of ditches, chain link fences and con- crete slabs. The tines can send cement or metal chips flying, or a collision can throw you off balance. • Pull the depth bar at a shallow setting for the first pass. Increase the depth on the next pass and till to a depth of 6 to 7 inches. • When breaking ground crust, leave strips of untdl- ed earth between passes. That way you won't creat ditches that cause the tiller to lean off balance. Go back and till thiese strips later. • Till in a different direc- tion on each pass. Don't overtill and pulverize the soil. • Keep the tiller in good repair to prolong the life of your equipment and pro- mote safety. After it has cooled, stare the tiller in a place where kids can't get at it. FASY RIDER� This SNAPPER rider makes it easy on you and easy on your lawn, too.

In 1987 a total of 2,833 people attended the Palmer Rapids Twin Festivals. Even more peo- ple are expected this year. The facilities at the farm are capable of accom- modating any size of crowd. Lloyd Fleguel has hosted the Palmer Rapids Bluegrass Festival every year since 1980. The festival centres on an out- door stage beside the banks of the Madawaska River. The stage looks over a level area 400 feet wide and 330 feet to the back. Here the audience relaxes on lawn chairs or blankets on the ground. Llovd has arranged cam- ping facilities for the com- fort of the thousands of peo- ple who will want to stay for the entire week -end. There are three separate camping areas, using 165 acres of land, with provi- sion for a fourth camping area if needed. "We are in no danger at all of running out of camping space," he comments.

Two of the camping sites are designated family camping". Here a quiet orderliness is maintained with the assistance of security personnel from organizations in Renfrew and Hastings Canities. The thud campsite is designated -party camp- ing area". Rules of quietness are less strictly enforced there: but because of the size of the farm, sounds do not travel easily from area to area. Last year a country music festival was added, with its own outdoor stage. This stage faces a field that slopes gently upward for some 30o feet, and is 400 feet wide. The third camp- ing area is behind it. A large parking lot separates the two stages so well that even amplified sound does not carry from one to the other. Eight groups will be ap- pearing on each stage dur- ing the three day twin festivals. Each group per- forms for 45 minutes to 1 hour and will be on stage up to four different times dur- ing the Festival.
