Campaign Being Waged tq Rid I
CPWty of Warble Fly PPest
D-day for all-out warfare against
the warble fly in Huron county has
not yet been fixed, but the staff
officers are already at work on
gampaigu plans for the battle
which will be launched next spring
by Huron County's agriculture gen
erals. The end of the growing sea
son does not mean the end of the
thinking season for Huron eounty
farmers, and leaders of the agricul
tural community have already be
gun to use the spare time of the
winter mouths to map strategy for
the “War on the Warble.”
John Armstrong, of Londesboro,
reeve of HulJett township and
chairman of the County Council’s
agricultural committee and Hugh
Hill, chairman of a special commit
tee of the Huron Federation o^
Agriculture, have taken the initia
tive in planning now to combat
the warble fly in 1946. At their
instance two meetings have been
held recently, -one at Belgrave for
the north end -of the county, and
one at Hensail for the south, at
which township directors of the
Federation of Agriculture have be
gun study of the history habits and
vulnerable points of the warble fly.
Dr, L. Stevenson assistant principal
of the Ontario Vetinary College, at
Guelph, was obtained to speak at
each meeting. The purpose of Reeve
Armstrong and Mx*. Hill is to edu
cate a key man in each township
in the lore of the wax»ble fly, and
use this group of key men as a
nucleus around which the anti
warble army can be mobilized.
It is also intended to work
through the rural schools of the
county; plans are being made now
to teach school children this wint
er to recognize the warble fly and know just how to fight it, The co-!

FROM EXETER HIGH
By LILLIAN IIUNTER-DVVAB
After plowing - a track through
to St. Marys, the Exeter boys’ High
School Baskethull team held their own when they puhed through a
tough battle only one point behind
the St. Marys team. 'Ross Tuckey
was hurt during the beginning of
the first half. The hoys missed their
star forward, Bruce Glenn, who was
absent. So if the full team turns
out at the return, game, aud our
-prediction holds true, the hoys have
a -good chance pf a victory. How
about it, boys7 *

Mr, and Mrs. W. F. Abbott, who
spent Christmas and New Years
visiting with Mr. and Mrs. Arto
Delve at Taber, Alta., returned
home recently and have written the
following interesting letter,
“After forty years since I first
saw this country, vast changes have
taken place. Small hamlets have
'grown to large cities, vast prairies
of wilderness now fenced into large,
more or less prosperous farms and
homesteads, some more prosperous
looking than others. Some are using
what they call strip farming, which
means ten to twenty rod strips of
soil planted one y$.ar, the next ten
or twenty rod left to summer
fallow, with stubble left for winter
and spring to catch the land drift.
“In Alberta very little seems to
be fall ploughed and vast fields of
I grain still stand although the great
er majority is threshed. In Alberta
we went about 250 miles by motor
car and of course could see far
more farming country than by train.
We travelled for .five or six hours
in open view of the foothills and
the great Rocky mountains from
MdLeod to Calgary, and about one
hundred miles further north we
turned east about 45 miles where
we arrived at the Three Hills
