COMPOST HELPER: Wood ashes are a good way to neutralize the acidic conditions in the compost heap. Spread a fine layer on top of the compost whenever you turn the pile. By: C.G. Larry Rutter Owner, Breeder & Trainer of Workin Do 3. I was brought up in a family where there was always a dog member of the household. MY very first dog was presented to me on my 7th or 8th birthday. However, my father made it very clear that the puppy belonged to me. Therefore I was totally responsible for its well being in all respects; housing; feeding; grooming & exercise. My father assisted me in building a dog house and mother 'helped' me in feeding the puppy. I want to stress the point that it was ; who wanted the dog. I was made to understand that the dog, throughout its life, would be my responsibility. So I learnt to respect and understand the individual- ality of the dog. He taught me the meaning of patience, understanding and tolerance. Above all, he demonstrqted to me the meaning of love. Whenever I was in 'hot' water, whicn was often, it was my dog who cuddled into me send made me forget the sorrows of a young boy. it was my dog who licked and cleaned my wounds when I fell off my bicycle or suffered scratches and lacerations when going through the woods. He was my dog who loved me until the day he died. v All he wanted in return was human companionship, (mine), food, a comfortable dry and drought free sleeping quarters and LOVE. This was the general environment and conditions that most children of my I â€"-â€"â€"..â€".â€".â€"â€" generation were brought up in in regards to family pets. My first dog introduced me to the meaning of responsibility. If I had failed in that responsibility my father Would have considered me unfit to own a dog. today, I find that this ‘depth' of responsibility towards 'pets'is lacking, not only in young people but also with adults.

A coin need not be very old to be worth more than face value.For example: many coin dealers will pay face value plus 100% or more for Canadian fifty cent, twenty-five cent and ten cent pieces dated 1966 and earlier. These coins contain 80% silver and as the market price for silver bullion slowly increases so does the value of these Canadian coins. This is the main reason why so few of these silver coins are to be found in circulation today. Some modern coins command a high price because of errors made at the mint during the striking or because the quantity minted of that particular deâ€" nomination was small. In 1973 the 25 cent piece commemorated the RCMP Centennial and had the figure of a mounted policeman on the reverse of the coin. The bust of Queen Elizaâ€" beth differs from previous years in that it is smaller and has more engraving lines in the hair. This is easily seen without a magnifying glass by comparing the bust on a 1972 quarter with the bust of the 1973 Commemorative quarter. During the minting process, however, at least one of the dies used to strike the 1973 coin had the larger bust of the Queen and a number of what is now called "Type I Large Bust" 25 cent. pieces were put into circulation. Est- imates of the quantity released for circulation range from 5000 to 10,000 coins out of a total mintage of some 13 million coins. These Large Bust, 1973, twenty-five cent coins now command a good price. Coin dealers and collectors will pay from $25 to $100 or more for these coins depending on the amount of wear and the general condition of the coin. Why not check your piggy bank?
