The application should not ‘be used after bulbs commence to form, as it is very poisonous. If .it is not proposed to treat rad- ishes, severe losses may be avoided by broadcasting seed instead of saw- ing in drills. Weeders Possibly one of the most satisfacâ€". tory implements for the control of weeds in a growing grain crap is what is known as the finger weeder. 'I‘his implement consists of a series of long slender teeth which form a very light harrow. The finger weed- er may be used to advantage on an- nual weeds, shortly after germina- tion, both before and after the gra’in crop has emerged and until the crop is some two to four inches high. - :I‘he .same treatment will give ben- eficial control to Onion maggot, if at least two applications are made, at the proper time. I NEWS AND INFORMATION The Turnip Aphid In connection with the cOntrol f the turnip aphid, entomologists ad- vise the planting of two rows of white turnips in a field of swedes ‘as a ‘trap’ crop for this insect. These‘ aphids, which cause serious injury to young turnip plants through feeding on the leaves, commOnly reach Can- adian points in the late summer, but they may 'be expected earlier this year and probably to cause greater injury. Past experience has shown that this insect prefers white to swede turnips. and may gather in huge numbers on a small number of white turnip plants, leaving the swedes but lightly infected. The planting of a row or two of white turnips in with the main crop at- tracts the aphids to the “trap†plants so that they can be destroyed easily with spray or dust or by being plow- ed under. The turnip aphids or plant lice make themselves apparent in a field through individual plants beâ€" coming stunted in growth and sick- ly in appearance. Purple blotches may appear on the surface of the leaf and these indicate large colon- ies on the under surface. These in- fested plant‘s should be pulled and removed at once. RooSts For Young Birds Teaching chicks to roost at an early age tends to promote feather growth and helps materially in car- rying the chicks over the critical period when they are most likely to crowd and smother. It is desirable to get the chicks to west just as soon as they no longer need heat to keep them comfortable. One of the best ways of getting chicks to roost is to build a sloping roost to the rear of the breeder house or to one side of the house and enclose the underneath. side of the roost with a fine mesh “ï¬re so that the chicks cannot get at the droppings. They will take to these temporary roosts in no time. Campaign Against \Veeds The provincial authorities are leaving no stone unturned in their campaign against weeds Many of the highways have the usual prolific crops along the sides of the road. Some of the farms throughout the country have crops of weeds which will soon be ripening and spreading their seeds to the four winds. De- linquents in this respect will be given an opportunity to explain the reason for their contempt of the law as soon as the weed inspector makes his rounds. FOR THE BUSY FARMER Make the Meadows Play Ontario usually has about four andl one-half mllion acres of hay crops; each year. In passing across the- province just before haying one canâ€" 'not help feeling that many of these acres are not paying the taxes and the cost of handling the crop. Staâ€"- tistical reports indicate an average( 'yield of only one and oneâ€"half tons‘ to the acre and this can certainly 'be much improved upon. For the meadows, good drainage and sweefl *soil are very important. Roots of grasses» and clovens are slow to pene: trate wet soils and'wherever there) is a surplus of water on the soil, air is shut out and hence the bac-J terial life is either weakened or kill- 'ed. Another point in meadow im< provement is: the use of high quality‘ seed. If poor seed is used the mea-- 'dow starts out with a handicap. Goodu drainage, good seed, and a liberal supply of suitable fertilizer make: profitable meadows. ’ tion sale of dwelling and furniture, the property of Nicholas Semenick,‘ at 8 Ellerby Square, Woodbiridge.

Poul- try have no sweat glands, but they give off relatively large amounts of -vapour in respiration and through the skin. It was found at he exâ€" perimental station that maximum egg production was obtained when temperatures were not permitted to fluctuate Widely. A henhouse temp- erature at 50 degrees F. is too high to be maintained on most farms in winter without artificial heat. Hence a lower temperature held uniformly would 'be desirable. Increasing num- bers of poultrymen have had success with artificial heat properly regulat- ed, but failure has commonly result- ed when temperatures were allowed to go too high or fluctuate widely.‘ SATURDAY, JULY 24~walic auc- Summer Homes For Hogs The hog does not require an ex- pensive home. Not only that, but best results are actually obtained from the cheaper equipment. Two or three cabins and a 'box-stall for the farrowing sow will supply the necessary housing in the case of the farmer who grows a few hogs. Ex- periments have proved successful with cabins constructed of strong though relatively light material and‘ provided with hinged sides for free‘ passage of air in the summer sea- son. They are built on runners so as to be easily shifted from place 'to place. The A-s'na-ped canin is- sufloject to damage by the pressure 'of the hog from the inside. The up. Some authorities are advising pro- ducers to raise every chick that they can this spring. While the cost of (food is rather high, prices of all commodities are rising and it is rea- sonable to expect that when condi- tions adjust themselves eggs and 'poultry will also be higher. The egg markets at Eastern cenâ€" 'tres is now two to three cents a‘bove lthe corresponding period of a year 'ago, and. with some recent reduc- ‘tions in feed prices, the prices of eggs and feed are coming more in ~1ine with each other. Tight cabin} with the peaked roof will last for years. A circular is availâ€" 'a’b1e at your local agricultural off- lice giving specifications for a suit- able summer home which when Itightened up and properly protect- ed, makes an all-year hog heuse. This condition combined with re- duced purchases of baby chicks is causing real concern over the possi- bility of an egg shortage next fall. The impression now is that eggs will be scarce from September to Januâ€" ary and that poultrymen will do well to get their birds in lay by that time. Egg Shortage Coming In Ontario and Quebec provinces, according to statements made by of- ficials of the poultry services, there is reason to believe that laying stock is now below normal. There has been no great run in any one week, but the steady movement week by week over a long period has account- ed for many more thousands of birds than is generally recognized. SALE REGISTER THE LIBERAL, RICHMGND HILL, ONTARO In a recent interview Mr. Hopper stated that a great many children would continue to walk through life on their own feet instead of crutches if motorists would show more cour- tesy when driving on streets or high- ways' where children were encount- ered. ‘ Toronto, July 13.â€"Care1essness or lack of courtesy on the part of mot- orists is just as dread a disease for children as tuberculosis, rickets or infantile paralysis, thinks Reg. W. Hopper, executive secretary of the Ontario Society for Crippled Child- ren. “But being courteous to a child or anv other pedestrian," insisted Mr. Hopper, “doesn’t mean simply refraining from swearing at him be- cause he gets in the path of your car. Along with politeness, courtesy inclur’es carefulness. thoughtfulness, and consideration for the rights and comforts of other neople." He felt the Ontario department of highways deserved much credit for its “Try Courtesy" promotion work to check highway traffic accidents and pointed to the campaign being conducted by the Minister of High- ways, Hon. T. B. McQuesten, as a powerful weapon in saving the lives and limbs of fnany children. Accidents in which children are in- volved are by no means always the fault of drivers, he stressed, because “children have an astonishing faculty for getting into accidents.†In On- tario during 1935, 1.500 children were injured in automobile accidents. Six- ty-Siix children under fourteen years of ‘age were killed by collision with motor cars. Twenty-six of these were tiny toddlers of four years.†“Try Courtesy" Will Save Many Children From Being Crippled For A Life-time “They know no danger. these youngsters who are so eager for fun.

More boys and girls under 14 years are killed or injured in Ontario each year by cars than are persons in any other age group.
