On the * Walking-Stick* Bug Aids Cancer Research That funning-looking harmless insect known as a “Walking-Stick” or a “Stick-Bug”—it’s green and usually hangs on branches or loads of hay—is on the wanted list. Boys and girls everywhere, including the 800,000 Junior Red Cross Members across Canada, were asked to bring ’em back alive and ship them to Dr. W. R. Franks at the Banting Institute, 100 to. It’s .part of Dr. Franks is wide call for reason for research on this par­ ticular insect is that it produces in its own system the same condi­ tions that govern cancer. Its growth is controlled by secretion from glandular-like cells and it’s the secretions which the doctors want to study. An urgent call from Dr. Stuart Stanbury last week re collecting the “walking stick” bug resulted in two large canons, being sent direct to Toronto by transport, as well as many being sent through the mail. The pinery south of Grand Bend yielded thousands of these bugs this year and knowledge of this came to the notice of Dr. Franks, Toronto, wlho is conduct­ ing cancer research work. This "walking stick’’ bug will aid in this work of cancer research and Dr. Franks, through Dr. Stanbury, en­ listed the help of the Exeter Red Cross in bugs. College fit., Toron- the war on cancer, issuing the nation- the bugs said the collecting and sending the HONEY WORST SHORTAGE SINCE 1913 For some unkown reason this summer of 194 6 has been the worst season for the production of honey, experienced since the disastrous year of 1913, according to authori­ ties on bee-keeping. Following the very poor season of 1945 when less honey than usual was produced and many thousands of hives had to receive artificial feeding through the past winter, this lack of Loney will seriously affect all apiarists in this district and will probably mean the destruction of many hundreds of hives. For an undiscovered rea­ son there seems ’to be a lack of sweetness in the flower nectar this year and one local bee-keeper says he .believes it is due to lack of morning dew. The trouble is not a local one as other parts of the province report the same difficul­ ties. Bees of Lambton 'County have produced but 20 per cent, of an average yield, barely enough food with little to carry over for winter feeding. Unless more can Ibe obtain­ ed from the late flowers* many bees will perish unless fed throughout the winter. The yield this year has been the worst in the history of Canadian bee men and is even a shorter crop than the all time low in 1913. Prominent bee keepers from all sections of crop with 10 pounds have about year hives pounds with 200 pounds a good all round average. T.he loss this year will be serious to most apiar­ ists and represents $5,000 to Some of the 1,000 colony bee keepers. Lambton report a poor some hives as low as per colony while others 50 pounds.
