The type of injury caused by these insects varies considerably with the species responsible for the damage. Most commonly, cutworms while feeding at the ground level cut through the stem of the plant, -ausing it to fall over and eventual ly die. Climbing cutworms ascend the plant and feed on the foliage, while others attack the root system. Most cutworms are nocturnal in ha bit, hiding in the soil by day and emerging in the evening to feast up on their favorite kind of plant. Under garden conditions, worms -can be controlled by a pois oned bait which is broadcast the soil either before the seeds are planted <or prior to the setting out of the young plants. The bait is composed of the following ingred- "''j^iits—bran 2 lbs.; molasses, 1 qt.; paris\ green, 1-2 pound; and water about^2 1-2 gallons.

Rooms in- of Drinkers?” The beverage room has brought back the t'.eating system. Many who had not money to invest in a bottle of liquor <-r a case of beer will drop in for a drink alone or with others. The tieating system induces any who have m*ver touched beer to take a glass just to be with the gang. The bev erage room is a social centre where the Government Stere was not and social pressure makes many a girl or hoy take rhe first glass; also the beverage is pushed for private pro fit and every means used to attract new customers as the Government was not. If we only had to consid er the people with an appetite for aleolholie drinks we would have a large problem to solve but there are other and greater influences at work Tempeianee advocates 'have opposed to them a well-organized and wealthy traffic ready to expend millions of dollars to increase their business and to encourage increase in the number of drinkers. How does the traffic win new cus tomers? The traffic is out for profits and the government wants revenue. Fortunately in Ontario, advertising is prohibited, hut the traffic takes advanage tunity of public trucks on vertising their owner’s names. The Presbytery of Middlesex is protest ing against advertisements of Lon don breweries in the telephone di rectory and the good wishes and' gifts to sporting teams is a subtle form of atrracting trade. Drinking scenes are increasingly featured in the movies and in the other prov inces the accepting of liquor adver- tisink tends to limit any freedom to censure the traffic and its inroads on public safety and well-being. The paid advertising in one issue of certain journals and magazines con stitutes a controlling influence over its pages. But the beverage room system has most noticeably increas ed the number of drinking people men and women in every place whore they have been opened. Effect of Beverage Rooms in On tario? McLean’s Magazine con ducted an impartial survey of the beverage rooms of Ontario and these results were noted: Saturday nights marked by drinking in the old sa loons have returned with this differ ence—the old saloons closed at 7 p.m. where the beer parlors keep open all evening. Over Ontario’s first hour of Sunday sees discharged upon the street a heterogeneous col lection of individuals, male and fe male, in all stages of intoxication; also I could not but think that, how ever disguised and however named the same old bar has returned. No spirits are sold and all must sit in more or less gentlemanly fashion at a table, but offsetting this is the fact that younger men and all wo men are encouraged to drink beer— plenty of beer. What ruined the old bar was not straight intemperance as much as the direct continued and deliberate encouragement of intem perance for the sake of hotelkeepers and brewers’ profits. This system is again in force without the slightest change except that now the govern ment shares the profit. Has Public Opinion been roused by these conditions? In the 64 Lo cal Option tests that have been tak en there have been 45 dry victories. 5 places have beverege rooms were closed and in only three cases where there were beverage rooms did the wets win. Of the votes cast in these tests over 57 per cent, have been dry. That would seem to indicate that in a Province-wide test on the beverage room question the drys would win if the temperance folk were alert and active. of every possible oppor- keepins its wares before eye.

In this re spect a close examination of the rap id increase in accidents shows that this was in direct proportion to the increased l’aciities for securing in toxicating liquor. In Britain where there has been an increase in motor accidents heav ier penalties than in this country are being imposed on drunken driv ers. Two instances as appearing in the British Press are cited: Prohibition from driving for life and a fine of $25.0 0 was the penalty imposed on Evan John Johns, butcher, Fenian at Llanrws, yesterday, when he was charged with driving a motor van while under the influence of liquor. In Stratford Police Curt an engin eer charged with being under the influence of drink while in charge of a motor ear was sent to prison for two months with hard labor and his driving license suspended for life.” That is the way and the only way, to halt the depredation of the drink ing driver chief menace to highway traffic. Apart altogether from other con siderations it is becoming clearly manifest day by day that much more stringent rules with respect to the sale of intoxicating liquors will have to be enacted if this massacre of the innocents which is nothing less than a public scandal is to cease.

Should we not form some resolution about our bud get fund? Effect of Beverage Room on Highway Safety Quoting from McLean’s a year’ ago regarding the beverage room and ac cidents: Over the province there has been a general protest at the increas ing hazards of the roads. From press figures for August 1934, Windsor had 6 more killed; Hamilton 7 more and Toronto 8 more than in previous There were 112 more acci-j on country roads than for the month the year before, A year ii August and September there’ 371 persons injured s of Toronto, This year A study of milk consumption re cently conducted in a .metropolitan centre on this continent reveals the fact that diversity of opinion exists regarding the “fattening qualities of milk. Of the two thousand adults interviewed, sixy-one per cent, of whom were women and thirty-nine per cent men, over two-thirds ex pressed the belief that milk is a fat tening food, and the remainder, that it helped to reduce weight. In both cases the percentage was about the same for milk drinkers and milk-drinkers. It may seem strange to say both opinions are correct, but is the case. When milk is tuneu, either at or between meals, in addi tion to the amount of foods which keeps an individual at constant weight, it is natural that it will have a tendency to increase weight. On the other hand, because milk has a low caloric value compared with other foods, it is an important factor in the diet for reducing abnormal weight. The first requisite in every diet, whether it be one for reducing increasing, or maintaining normal weight, is the inclusion of foods which will furnish basic building and .regulating material. Milk sup plies more nutrients to th body than any other single food, and should be given a prominent place in meals planned to “safely” reduce body weight. For the same reason milk is an excellent food for those under weight to use generously, since it adds, not only calories, but tial minerals and vitamins diet. It is easier to use amounts of milk than most foods, as it can replace beverages lacking in nutritive value, and can be taken between meals and at bed time without interfering with regular meals. Then, palatable and blends well foods. Milk is a food which needs—whether young or or tall, fat or thin. Used as the foun dation of the daily meals, the Milk Utilization Service, Dairy and Cold Storage Branch, Dominion Depart ment of Agriculture points out, this healthful food contributes to the fuel or energy requirements of the body. What is more important, milk fur nishes bone, tooth and tissue build ing material, together with those in dispensable factors—vitamins—all of which are essential to the attainment of health, growth and strength. dent same ag w> Stl sa ■oct inc* period and with no in .s 553 were struck down on the for the reuse nd fc HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION Work on highway No. 4 at Blyth and betwe en the Blm will begin June.
