OTTAWA, August 1, 1969 -- The cereal leaf beetle, a serious crop pest, is spreading swiftly across Ontario this year. The Canada Department of Agriculture's Plant Protection Division has" thrown up a quarantine boundary line extending from Oshawa north to the Severn River in an attempt to check the spread of the pest to the east. All crops that could be carrying the beetle are included in the movement quarantine. W. D. Touzeau of the Plant Protection Division says inspectors are paying special attention to fresh green corn ,(corn on the cob) and forages for race tracks and exhibitions. G. S. (Stu) Brown, who is in charge of survey work for the Division, says the cereal leaf beetle was spotted in Huron, Perth, Oxford, Norfolk, Haldimand, Lincoln, Wentworth, Brant, Halton, Waterloo and Wellington Counties in the spring survey. Most of the beetles , were found in the larva stage on winter wheat. Last year the beetles were identified in Essex, Kent, Lambton, Middlesex and Elgin Counties in the 'London to— Windsor area. There was a crop movement quarantine in effect in that area last year. In the United States, the beetle is spreading even faster. It was first spotted in 1962 near Lake Michigan. This year it has been found as far south as Maryland and New Jersey and is half way across New York State, raising the danger that the beetle will skirt the southern shore of Lake Ontario and head into Canada east of Kingston. The beetle has been spreading east on the prevailing wind. Experts have only traced -a 100-mile move to the west since 1962. But the mere mention of cereal leaf beetles is enough to scare prairie wheat farmers. The beetle loves to chew its way through lush spring growth of cereal crops and could create havoc if it reaches the Canadian west. That's why the Plant Protection Division is trying hard to check the spread of the pest. A strict watch is kept on all fresh green corn heading out of Ontario for the Winnipeg market, says Mr. Touzeau. The Ontario quarantine line was set further east than the area of infestation because it Wouhl have been impossible to polide the movement of crops into Toronto, says Mr. Brown. By fall, he expects the cereal leaf beetle will reach the borders of the quarantine area in Simcoe 'and OntaTib Colinties. Although the beetle is spreading rapidly, crop losses have not been serious. "It will take time for the pest population to build up," says Mr. Brown, "we could have some serious crop losses this year in Essex Coun;ty. Given favorable conditions for the pest to develop, we could have crop problems within a year to two in the 11 counties where the beetle was first found this year. Quarantine iniormation is available from the Plant Protections Division. . Farmers are urged to contact their ' nearest agricultural representative, research station, plant protection office or agricultural college if they spot cereal leaf beetles. Carbaryl and malathion are the most promising insecticides of those tested for control of the pest. Contact an agricultural advisor about the need for control and control measures. The adult beetles are about 3/16 of an inch long and less than 3/32 of an inch wide. The wing covers and head are bluish black. The legs and part of the thorax just back of the head are reddish orange. The larvae are a little longer than adults and look like slugs. They are usually covered, with a brownish black coat of fecal material. when this covering is removed, or right after molting, they look like small yellowish potato beetle larvae. Further information can be obtained by requesting publication 1353 from the Canada Department of Agriculture's Information Division, Ottawa. The Rev. Herbert W. Wonfor stressed the importance of loyalty in preaching to a near-capacity congregation at his initial service as minister of Ontario Street United Church last Sunday morning. Get ready for Blyth fall fair It's more than a month away, but the Blyth Agricultural Society directors are already working hard on arrangements for the annual fall fair which is to be opened this year by D.J. Cochrane, director of education for Huron County. The society has said it will not canvass for donations this year, believing that activitites must ' pay for themselves. The horse show is to be held Saturday evening, Sept. 13 and the feeder calf show and sale is slated for Monday, Sept. 15, On Tuesday, sand will be removed from the arena floor and all will be readied for the main day of the fair, Wednesday, -Sept. 17. With the arena clear of livestock, Murray Scott and the concession committee hope to attract commercial exhibits. The purebred livestock classes, all but children's classes, have been dropped due to lack of interest in previous years. As usual, there will be school displays, exhibits by women's groups and 4-11 competitions. Jr. Farmers hold annual field day Three hundred competitors will take part in the fifth annual Junior Farmers' Association of Ontario Field Day, Saturday. The Field Day, to be held at the University of Guelph, will have representatives from the six Junior Farmer zones in Ontario competing for the perpetual trophy awarded to the zone having the highest number of points at the end of the day. Each zone has previously held its own field day to select representatives to compete in this one. Proceedings at Guelph will start at 9:30 a.m. with softball and basketball tournaments,• and continue with l'iriar*"trthereVents'Aricluding,,a 4,, tug-of-War, a rifle shooting competition, horseshoe pitching, relay racing, track and field events, and free swimming in the University swimming pool. An outdoor dance will finish off the day's activities. Members Of Wesley-Willis and liohnesviile United Churches and many visitors joined the Ontario Street Church members in welcoming the new clergyman. Loyalty to God does not conflict with loyalty to the state, said Mr. Wonfor, quoting from Matthew 22:22: "Render !into Caesar the things that are Caesar's and unto God the things that are God's." He said that he, his wife and family were pleased to come to Clinton and explained that the pronunciation of his name is simply "one-four." Welsh in origin, he said the nettle was probably descended from a many-syllabled Welsh proper name. The new pastor, has a wife and five small children and comes from the town of Hudsori, Que., west of Montreal Island. Mrs. Margaret Whitmore of St. Catharines was guest soloist Sunday with Miss Lois Grasby, organist and church choir leader, accompanying. Mr. Wonfor was inducted at a special service last Thursday evening. Wedding ;;;7,777 DERV.-IS STUDIO P.hone -482.7000 ‘.
