The Counties of Peal, Perth/ and Huron, as well as the District of M&nitoulin, have adopted the Act, by fulfilling which the into force. We note the Ontario the conditions by Act could be brought with gratification that Government, at the last session of the Legislature declared its .acceptance of the validity of the Act, and its responsibility in en­ forcing it. As representatives of the Tem­ perance Federations of these Coun­ ties and District, .we respectfully present to the Government, the fol­ lowing: . 1. May we tell our people that the attitude of the government is still to recognize and enforce the law as it now exists? 2. That a definite statement he made by the (Attorney-General’s De­ partment to the effect that it will instruct its officers to give all pos­ sible assistance in attaining the ob­ jectives of the Act. 3. That all public carriers he re­ quired to keep records of all liquor shipments they handle, by the use ■of a special book for this purpose, Which shall be open for inspection by- any enforcement officer. 4. That all liquor .supplied to CTA territory, for personal use. shall be purchased only .through Government agencies, and that the 1’eco.rd of these shipments'shall be ■open to inspection by all enforce­ ment officers. That we cordially approve of the announcement that the government contemplates tak­ ing over the Brewers’ stores. 5? If and when (as suggested) the question of the relation of the Canada Temperance Act to the On­ tario Liquor Control Act, is refer­ red to the courts by either appeal, stated case, or question, re respect­ fully request that as in the cases before the Supreme Court of On­ tario, the Supreme Court of Canada and the Privy Council, the Ontario ’Temperance Federation and the Temperance Federations of the Counties and District involved .‘be made parties to the hearing and be permitted to be represented by counsel. 6, A recent radio 'broadcast stated that programs sponsored by brewer­ ies and distilleries would be per­ mitted by the C.B.C. if such, pro­ grams were approved by the' pro­ vincial government concerned. Is it the intention of the. government of ' Ontario to give approval to such programs?” iln reply, Mr. Blackwell assured the deputation that the CTA will Be recognized ahd strictly enforced by his officers, which means that there will be no licensed outlets for liquor established in these Counties and District.

This observation has led to the wrong belief that hybrid corn is resistant to corn borer, and con­ sequently the need for borer con­ trol measures are no longer nec­ essary. Both of these ideas are in­ correct, says G. F. H. Buckley, Do­ minion Experimental Station, Har­ row, Ont. The corn hybrids which are com­ monly grown today are not resis­ tant to the borer. It is true that because of its hybrid can hold stalk than the before breaking not resistance. ■ If the borer infesta­ tion is severe enough the hybrids will ibreak over. ‘Plant breeders in Canada and the United States are working hard on this problem but as yet no resistant hybrids are in production. Until such hybrids are developed there will always be the threat of borer damage to the crop and the severity of the damage wjll be dependent upon the degree of borer infestation. 'For the past two or three years the corn borer control measures have been less rigid. During the same years there has been, an in­ crease in the number of 'borers present. In 1946 borers were at work in the corn fields of South­ western Ontario during the early part of July. It is too soon to say how much damage may be expect­ ed. Fortunately over 95 per cent, of the corn acreage is planted to hybrids which will withstand light to moderate attacks of the borer. Nevertheless, if the recommend- ded measures for corn borer con­ trol are not more rigidly followed the borer infestation will soon be too great for even the hybrids to withstand. A good job of turning under old corn stalks and stubble before June 1st is especially im­ portant and will do much to re­ duce the numbers of the insect in the current year. ---------------------------1-------------------- sturdier stalks the more borers in the old - corn varieties occurs. But that is tion of a new court house, plans at an estimated cost $350,000 were submitted and proved -by a recorded vote at June session. The county had aside $100,000 invested in victory bonds, to apply on the cost, and the by-law -passed Sept. 4th, will provide for the remaining $250,-010'0. The special meeting was called to give a third reading to the law. by- CENTRALIA Wm.
