The number of Canadians travelling Wit‘iiin Can- ada and of Americans visiting this country especially for fishing will run into many ihousands.

Insects according to the !t: rpe of damage they do, can be divi- ded int, two general classes; those flmown as biting: insects, which ‘in lfeeding actually bite a piece out of the plant attacked, and» those known as sucking- insects which suck the juices out of the leaves or stems with- out noticeably changing their outline. lFor biting insects, (caterpillars, cut‘ Iwu‘ms etc.) three poisons are com- mcnyly recommended, arsenate of lead, arsenate of lime, and paris green. Sucking insects (aphids, plant bugs, leafhoppers, etc.) are customary controlled ‘hy nicotine sul- phate, either '21 liquid or dust form. â€"ast master elect officers Over Sixty Past Masters of Masonic Order Gathered at Bobcaygeon for Annual Meeting.

This gatheringr brought out 29 (lele‘xates and thnre was ewn the quastion ow whtthex the Association ‘hould continue or not. Eventually it decided to carry on. But it's like Mr. aughor said. There are very few aprentices learn- ing' the trade. “In fact”, said he," I I Visited over 35 shops and mcst of the men in them were between 60 and 70 year old. In only a few there were men un- der 40 years. He thought that the blacksmith’s pay was really to blame He figured that there were. so few apprentices because the smithies were not making- sufficient money. Rt. Wor. Bro. C. H. Pardy, Presi- dent, acted 'as chairman, with Wor. Bro. C. H. Heels, of Lindsay as Se- cretary. Considerable business. was transacted, many matters of impor- tance being discussed, including pros- pects for a candidate for the office of Districtâ€"Deputy Grand Master, as well as for representative from Vict- oria district on the Board of General Purposes, of Grand Lodge.

Dr. G. H. Muiphy, Minister of health, to be- ('Dntt} the youngest Premier in Can- ada at that time. The Liberal leade r is in his forty- seventh year. He was born nem In- vciness and educated in the public schools of that town and Part Hood Academy. After teaching school for several years before entering St. Fancis Xavier University he wont to Fiance as 1). Lieutenant with the 85th Cape Breton Highlanders and ad- vanced to the rank of Captain being- forced rut of the fight before the Armistice with severe wounds. Returningr to Nova Scotia, he en- tered Dalhousie Law School and gra- duated with the degree of LL.B. in 1321 returning to that university as E’roiessor of Law three years later at Columbia and Harvard Universit- ies nd in 1929 Hrvard conferred upon him a degree of Doctor of the Science 1f Jurisprudenceâ€"a degree held by mly four Canadian. Resuming his professorship the mme year, he continued at Dalhousie until May 1933, when he resigned to ~nter politics. Trapnesting being to the laying flock what the scale and Babcock test are to the dairy hard, it is the only plowed up last fall in Western Ont- ario as a. result of the rise in grain prices and unsatisfctcry returns from cattleraising operations during the preceding- three or four years. The estimated acreage of oats for 1937 is placed at 2,439,700 acres an increase of 94,000 acres over 1936 -md the intended acreage of barley is placed t 571,100 cres as against 519 "3.00 acres in the the preceding year. If the weather had been favourable for early seeding of spring wheat, it is likely that the acreage of thatj crop would have been expanded in or- der to take advantage of present wheatp rices of sowing, it is believed that the acreage will show a slight decrease, being estimated at 95,900 acres as compared with 98,000 acres ‘in 1936. Mixed grains acreage is ex- pected to be about the same as last year and flaxseecl about four per cent less. The recent decline in pot- ato prices has emphasized the diffic- ulty of finding markets for a normal yield of potatoes from an increahed acreage. The area to bep lanted to potatces is now estimated at at 149,- 000 acres as compared with 145,300 acres in 1935. The demand for seed grain was not as great as expected. Considerable quantities of seed grain were carried over frOm 1935 cr0p and many farmers cleaned their 1336 'grrain, even though it was of some- what inferior quality. The flow of maple syrup was below normal again this spring and farmers received from $1.50 to $2.00 per gal- Ion, or about the same as last year. when production was also light.

Land that was heavily infested the year before should be treated prior to the plants being set out. This is done by broadcasting the bait at the rate of 15-20 pounds per acre a few nights before transplanting. One application should be sufficient but, if the cut- worms are numerous, a second should be made two or thiee days after the first. The bait should always be spread in the evening just before dusk, and, if possible, a warm still night should be chosen for the work. If the attack by cutworms is un- expected and the plants are already in the field the bait should be applied around the base of each plant, using about one half} tablespoon in each case. Should one application not kill cutwcrms, a second treatment should be made two or three nights later.
