The onion maggot is ‘qtite distinct from other species of maggots that work their deoâ€" predations under the soil. A garden may be riddled with wireâ€"worms and the tiny white thread worm that menâ€" aces young cabbage or cauliflower plants and the onion bed will remain immune. If the onion maggot is present in the soil the cpposite will apply. Napthalene flakes spread over the soil and raked in before planting are bencâ€" ficial, but as all onion setts are, or should be, planted at this time, corâ€" rosive sublimate solution applied veâ€" tween the rows should do the trick. Corrosive sublimate solution is made up of one quarter ounce of corrosive sublimate dissolved in one and one hali gallons of water. This treatment can be. followed up with a second one about a week or ten days later, taking care at all times that the solution does nint come in contact with the setts or onoin tops. Corrosive sublimate solution is a soil fumigant and is not intended to be used on the plant in the mannsr an ordinary insecticide is used against leaf eating insects; There is no need for the solution to touch the onion setts or crops, This point is stressed because corrosive sublimate is poisonous. Onâ€" ions have only short growing season beâ€" fore they are considered ready for use and there is always the possibility of their being prematurely pulled by someâ€" one uninformed and eaten without beâ€" ing properly washed. It is customary to dip the roots of young cabbage plants in corrosive sublimate solution during the process of transplanting. In this case the solution is not used for the destruction of rcot maggot alone, it is also a preventive remedy against ciu‘> root, a disease that is sometimes inâ€" nerent in Ccabijaiges. The solution shculd be applied at the rate of ore half cupful to a plant when setting out young cabbages or cauliflowers. Corâ€" rosive sublimate should not be allowed to come in contact with metal, always mix it in glass, earthware or wcoden containers, Keeping the drills straight during the process of seeding will help in culâ€" tivation later. Stretch a piece of cord between two stakes and makes the drill along this line with the back of a rake, or use the straight edge of a board. Most garden seeds, with the exception of peas or beans, which should be planted one or two inches deep, need only a light covering. An important operation in sowing seed is to firm the soil after the seed is covered. Firming €liminates air pockets that may form around the seed brings the seed into close contact with the soil, andâ€"by capillary action â€"brings moisture to the surface where it is needed. Footprints in garden soil illustrate this point perfectly. Unless the ground is bone dry a fooprint is always damper than the surrounding surface, and moisture is necessary for gsood germination. In : firming be guided by soil conditions. Too much pressure may form a crust that no seedling can break through, especially in clay soils or soil that packs closely. Do not be too sparing with seed. There is strengh in numbers, and tiny seediâ€" ings make a much better attempt at survival with others to support them; besidesâ€"the cutworm may help you thin uot any surplus that may develop. on a few American Marinesâ€"I‘m doing quite a job for the Chamber of Comâ€" merce of Timmins here in the South Pacific.

Comstock enlisted on the Canaâ€" dian Air Force in Montreal in the sumâ€" mer of 1941, receiving his wings a few days before his nineteenth birthday at St. Hubert, Quebec. By that time the United States was in the war and he transferred to the U.S. Navy in June, 1942, receiving his wings as a Naval Aviator and taking his commission in the U.S. Marine Corps in January 1943.

Welland Last Week In this loan, as in previous loans, not only did the life insurance companies invest every available dollar for Vieâ€" tory, but over 2000 experienced life insurance men and women served as canvassers and were instrumental in lsecuring many thousands of subscripâ€" ' tions. In the Ffith Loan last Fall they were credited with over $93,000,000. In i this Sixth Loan the amount will not be less." | «From The Halleyburian) ! Mrs. O. J.

Insurance Compamies Invest $950,000,000 Canada‘s War Loans Winnipeg, May 15 Victory first, as their policyholders would have them do, life insurance companies in Canada helped to put the Sixth Loan over the top with subscription of apâ€" proximately $170,000,0600. This brings the total life insurance investments in fighting dollars since the war began to over $950,000,000, an average of $235 for every insured person in the Do minion. "Once again life insurance leads all other groups in subscriptions to the loan that has just been so successfully completed," H. W. Manning, President of the Canadian Life Insurance Officers Association, said today, "and I cannot too strongly emphasize the fact that it is our policyholders themselves, through their premium payments, who have made this achievement possible." "Oour war loan investments," Mr. Manning continued, "will not only serve the vital purpose of backing up outr fighting forces in the grim days of invasion that lie ahead, but they really perform a fourâ€"fold service, namely: They sustain the nation‘s war effort; They provide for old age and the protection of dependents; They promote employment and naâ€" tional development; } Life Insurance Companies‘ Record Means $235 Averâ€" age for Every Insured Person. They serve as a bulwark against inâ€" flation." 6 Mrs. Thorpe had only last week reâ€" ceived word that her son, James Osâ€" wald Thorpe, missing overseas since July of last year, had been officially presumed dead, the news coming after several letters from officials of the Royal Canadian Air Force had been received in connection with his disapâ€" pearance from a base in the Meéditerâ€" ranean area. In one of these letters, Mr. and Mrs. Thorpe were told that "although the Air Ministry now pro=â€" poses to presume your son‘s death, it is for official purposes only and the search being made for him will in no way be effected or diminished." Anâ€" other letter from Air Marshall Robert Leckie conveyed sympathy, and word also was received from Squadron Leaâ€" der E. Harston, senior chaplain, Middle East R.C.AF. Two other sons of Mr. and Mrs. Thorpe, Edgar and Robert, are also serving with the RC.A.F. Other memâ€" bers of the family are Clarence Thorpe, of Duparquet, Que., Mrs. Jas. Irving, of Hamilton, Frank, whose present locaâ€" tion is not known to local friends, Miss Ella and Cameron, at home. Mr. and Mrs. Thorpe last visited the North late in 1942 They had been among the earlier residents of this district and have many friends ‘here who will join in extending sincere sympathy to Mr. Thorpe and the other members of the family.
