Sunday afternoon when the air-
craft he was landing broke its
tailwheel assembly, causing it to
skid temporarily out of control at
the Victoria International Airport.

Pilot David Earl Danylyshyn,
coming in from Campbell River
about 4:21 p.m., landed the Lus-
combe 8F without incident. Minor
damage resulted to the aircraft, but
it had to be towed from the airstrip.

bureaucracy. Since October last
year, Desharnais has been serving
as acting deputy.

GARDENING DELIGHT —

Spring has finally arrived. . .officially that is! Seed catalogues
started arriving months ago, about the time we hung up the new
calendars. The crocus bloomed the middle of last month, in time for
the Victoria Flower Count. Now the time has come for serious
gardening.

While Tanners stock an enormous variety of gardening books, |
would like to highlight two of them that are designed for Ganadians.

"A Greener Thumb” by Mark Cullen is subtitled ‘The Complete
Guide To Gardening in Canada,’ and after opening the cover it
doesn't take long to appreciate the truth of the claim. Cullen covers all
basic gardening techniques as well as information on growing
everything from bulbs to trees. He has also included a climate zone
map to enable gardeners across the country to choose what will
produce the best in their area.

A month-by-month planner for gardeners in B.C. is found in “A Year
In Your Garden” by David Tarrant, who also produces a gardening
column in the Vancouver Sun. This handy, soft-covered book helps
gardeners organize their time to achieve the best results. Tarrant
covers a full range of techniques as well as recommending books on
specialized subjects.

With gardening becoming more popular each year, both as a
source of beauty as well as a food supply, gathering information to
improve performance is a wise investment.
