This is made by punching several holes in the sides of small tin can with a tight lid, and placing in it a small piece of sponge nd a small quantity of syrup prepared by mixing 4 cunces of sugar and cunce of honey in oneâ€"half pint of hot water, and adding ‘+ gram of sodium According to the Division of Entoâ€" mology, Science Service, Department Cf Agriculture, Ottawa, the most satisâ€" factory material for destroying ants is sodium filuoride, sold by druggists in the form of a fine white powder. This powder should be scattered or blown with an insecticide puffer or dustâ€"gun in places where the ants occur, and should not be removed until the inâ€" sects have disappeared. Sodium fluoâ€" Tide is a poison and should not be rpxâ€" pos:d in places where children or pets may have access to it.

A gpecies is the small lawn ant, which nest gardens and often en search of f3s0d. A common and troublesome houseâ€" hold species is the tiny reddishâ€"yellow Fharaoh‘s ant, which originated in the tropics but is now widespread in Canâ€" ada. The common large black carâ€" penter ant is normally an outdoor speâ€" cies nesting principally in decaying wood, but frequently occurs in dwellâ€" ings, particularly frame houses and summer cottages, and may cause damâ€" age to woodwork. A third common tpecies is the small yellowishâ€"brown lawn ant, which nests in lawns and gardens and often enters houses in are many spâ€"clies of them, all are social in their habits, and live together in eolonies. The majority of the ants in a eclony and the ones most commonly seen are wingless undeveloped female workers, which are incapable of reproâ€" ducing their kind. The tiny active insects known as ants are especially num#»rous in the summ»râ€" time, and are frequently unwelcome inâ€" truders in homes and gardens.

In a general way these figures prove that under the lash of the New Degl inâ€" come taxes have shown a very drastic decline, in spite of the fact that a reâ€" view of the affairs of 150 bisg firms, just completed by the American Federâ€" ation of Investors. indicates that taxes in 1937 were more than double what they were before the New Deal. So far as we can see, these gures give Canadians no grounds for jubilation, although if this country followed the lead of United States and charged apâ€" proximately 80 per cent. of expendiâ€" tures to deficit, as will be the case unâ€" der the United States estimates in the current year, it would Oonly need to extract from each citizen the modest sum of about $9.25 and carry the balâ€" ance of $37.11 as deficit, base upon last year‘s Budget figures. It do»s not seem possible that these vast deficits will cver be wiped out by actual payment, but it is quite obvious that if they continue to mount prodigiâ€" ously, interest charges alone must some time exceed the paying ability of the taxpavers. The national public debt of the United States is now around $308 Turning to the estimates for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1939, we find that internal revenue in United States is expected to be down well over a billion dollars to $4,523,150,000, comâ€" pared with $5,674,318,436 actually colâ€" lected in 1938. Deficit for the year 1939 is now estiâ€" mated at gross of $4,084,887,600 or $31.42 per capita, which added to »xpected tax revenue of $34.80 makes a total of $66.22 per capita. If we actual i the line for eac States, a way we actually citizen | the line is, however, another side to this pictiure and that takes into consideraâ€" tion deficits piled up in the same year. Gross deficit in ‘United States for 1938 was $1,524,713,050 and that of Canada around $13,000,000, which means that the added burden upon the inâ€" dividual citizen of the United States was $11.72 and only $1.18 for each citizen in Canada. (From (GGilobe and Mail) It may interest Canadians to know that, upon a per capita basis, internal revenue taxation in 1938 was higher in this Dominion than in the United States, :ven under the pressure tempo of the Neéew Deal. . Canadian taxation authorities exâ€" tracted an average of $46.36 from each man, woman and child in the Dominâ€" ion, upon the basis of 11 million populâ€" ation, while internal revenue receipts in United States reached $43.64 a head upon a basis of 130 million population. The respective totals were about $510, 000,000 for Canada and $5,674.318,436 for United States. Canada‘s Per Capita Taxes More Than U.S we add the deficit for 1938 to the al internal revenue taxation across line, we arrive at a total of $55.36 each inhabitant of the United >s, and treating Canada in the same we get a total of $48.62, so that ally the burden on each Canadian en was but $6.74 less than south of Rose: by the duces c on the The foliage and flowers of the peony are annlually damaged by the peony blight disease. This malady produces characteristic brown spots on the lsaves and a rot of the flower buds and flowâ€" ers.. This disease is effectively controllâ€" ed by spraying with 4â€"4â€"40 Bordeaux or Copper Hydro 40, 2 pounds to 40 galâ€" lons. Apply the first spray when the plants are about one foot high, and the second spray at the time the fower buds are betweren oneâ€"half and threeâ€" quarters of an inch in diameter. Some growers object to the deposit which these sprays leave on the foliage. In order to avoid this, Burgundy mixture of the 4â€"5â€"40 formula may be employâ€" ed. Because of the waxy nature of peony leaves, it is advisable to add some type of sticking agent to these sprays.

Red copper oxide used at the rate of oneâ€" half teaspoonful of the chemical to 3 gallons of water has been highly reâ€" commended for the control of this disâ€" ease. These sprays sould be applied at 10â€"day intervals beginning about the middle of June. Roses, especially the climbing variety, are often attacked by mildew. Mildew appears â€"as a white coating on the leaves and stem, often causing curling and distortion of these parts. Thorough dusting with ordinary fowers of sulphur every 10 days is ufâ€" fienc:nt to combat this malady.

Reports come from Cobalt of berry pickers being lost in the bush near that town. and not very far from the "best old town" at that.. Very fortunately, they were found again before they sufâ€" fered any particular hardship or fright. One case was that of some ladies who went huntiny the festive blueberriecs and who wandered away from the othâ€" ers‘in the party. The ladies got mixed in their directions, and began to hurry to overtake the others in the party. Unluckily for the lost ladies they hurâ€" ried in the |wrong direction, and so were getting farther and farther away from home and friends. In the meanâ€" time â€"the, other â€" ladiesâ€" had â€" become alarmed â€" at } the continued absence of the two, andâ€"the services of a boy with more than the usual bush lore were conscripted as a search party, The boy proved able at the work. He picked up the tracks of the lost ladies and folâ€" lowed the tracks until he Came in sight of the missing couple. As soon as he saw the two ladies he started to call to. them, bidding them wait until he amved and he would take them back toâ€" sareby When the lad did reach the two ladies and turn their faces back homeward, t.hey were fully two miles away from the rest of the party. The two ladies claimed that two ‘miles back took ‘longer time and harder work walking than straying two miles. The other‘case of being lost in the bush near Cobalt was that of a man at Mileâ€" ago 104. He walked out of his back door at night to search for berries, and a few hours afterwards his friends were planning tosearch for him. Though he knew the country well and was esteeéemed able to make his way about nearly any place without a guide, he, too, got himself turned about in the bush and wandered off his way for three miles or:more. He is said to be somewhat shy in telling just how he came to be lost and how he came to find himself again. In any event, howâ€" ever, he was able to right himself, and he arnved back home, none the worse for being lost, except that he was conâ€" siderably "peeved" to think that he could lose himself so easily in the bush near Cobalt.
