Thnv will tour Canada. during the present sum- mer, under the auspices of Canada's Great Wa.r'Veterans, and Canadians will have an opportunity of hearing one of the world s finest bands in concert. This band is itself century old, and critics say it has never before achieved the high level of musical reputation that it now has, under the leadersllip of Lieut. F. W. Wood, who has won an outsmnding position among the world s great interpre- tative conductors. q__:n ,_n_`_ ____V_ ,____\_____ _| 1-,,, .1 n In a ruined city of Ceylon there still exists a sacred Bo tree, over 2,000 years old. war included 5 Victoria.

Whether mites are.known to -be present or not. the roosting and nesting quarters should be treated weekly during the summer, since the mites breed very rapidly during the hot weather. Ordinary coal oil will kill mites but as~it evaporates quickly its effects are not lasting. A good disinfectant mixturegmay -be made by acid- ing crude'carbolic'_to'fhe coal oil. about a quart to a gallon of the latter, or by adding one of the coal tar disinfectants such as zenoleum or phenoline. : n__ H, ` . .The control of mites, however. is not so simple, Unlike the hen louse these are not, as a rule, found upon thetfowl, neither are they killed by dusting. They are found usually in cracks around the masts and nests and will be readily detected upon examination of these localities. At night, when fowls are on the roost-s, these mites may readily be seen issuing from cracks and running along the roosts. The only method of control is thoroughp cleaning and disinfecting of the premis"es'.

Both are easily brought upon perfectly clean premises, possibly by the introduction of fowl purchased elsewhere. Sparrows are also a frequent spreader of these troubles, and there are numerous cases where no apparent source can be. thought of. yet lice and mites arefound to -be in possession. The former may be readily controlled by providing a good dust bath and by the use of blue ointment or one of the many lice powders that are on - the market.

In 1649 King Charles. authorized the Marquis of Argyle to raise a regiment of 1,500 men to protect the recently plan ted Scottish colonists in Ireland. It was a fateful beginning. The regiment had its birth in a troublesome job, and has fattened in glory on troublesome jobs ever since.
