Q:—If I buy. turkeys for a raffle do I •
pay the wholesale or retail ceiling
price
A: Any sales of more than two tur-
keys are considered wholesale trans-•
ctions, 4,0 wholesale prices are the
ceiling. However, we would re-
mind you that under present provin-
cial laws permission must be obtain-
ed to hold turkey raffles. The
Wartime Prices and Trade Board
has no jurisdiction over these' raf-
fles and does not issue permits.
You should consult your local police.
Q:—Has the former ruling that an
Owner could give six months notice
to a tenant to vacate if the owner
wishes to live in the house again
come into force. We have heard
several times it has, but have not
Seen any story in the newspapers.
A..:-.There scents to be considerable
confusion regarding this 'regulation,
An owner may not give a well-be-
haved tenant six months notice to'
vacate if the owner wishes to secure
possession for himself.
Q:—Why is jam rationed when sttgar
is so scarce?
A:---Jane is rationed because it is in
short supply. This short supply is
due in part to the shortage of sugar
required in the manufacture of jam.
Research Projects To
Help Forests
In the Potest IfiveStigations Bi-
monthly Progress Report, published
by the Entomological Division, Scien-
ce Service, Dominion Department of
Agriculture, it is noted that three ma-
jor research prOjettS have been initiat-
ed at the Entomological Laboratory in
Winnipeg for 1946. The projects are;
(I) studies of the jack pine budwortn
(2) studies to •deterinitte the relative
value of natural control factors in the
Control of the spruce' htidwOlift now iii

come and go, To answer that quest-
ion it is essential to follow the factors
affecting the numbers . of budworms
throughout the periods of epidemics

of concern is the exact relation of jack-
pine pollen production to budworm

through insect depredations,
In the second .project the Main ob-
jective 'in the Spruce Woods Forest,.
Reserve, is to determine the type and•
effectiveness of control factors now'
operating in the region. In success-
lire years, new natural enemies will be
introduced and the effects on the bud-
worm evaluated.
In the third project; further studies
of the European larch sawfly, one of
the phases is testing the effectiveness,
of DDT and of a new British insecti- •
cide, popularly' known as 666 against
the sawfly in the Riding Mountain-
National park. All of the studies. add
greatly to the saving of Canada's for-
ests.

flue-cured tobacco—the most valuable of the three types grown here.
le others are burley and dark-leaf. This year, a fourth type,
cigar leaf—one thousand acres af it--upens rich, hew Ontario
possibilities. Tobacco is a delicate plant and a ' demanding one,
needing utmost icatchfulness and even handmade encouragement
during its complicated cure. Its cultivation means back-breaking,
