Gardeissiffera e• V • from root magg�s Ontario gardens Iia ie suffered. more losses than usual from root maggots, says Professor.H. W. Goble, Environmental Biology 'Department, University of Guelph. Therare two separate species of root maggots that can be a prd'blem in the garden, The first �+-• is the cabbage " maggot which attacks cabbage, 'cau1t 1Qwer, radishes, rutabagas, turnips and. some related crops. The second is,theonion maggot which• attacks. only onions. The symptoms are as follows: the onion maggot causes I. the onion to wilt and die after it is ouiof the ground; with the cabbage i maggot, the affected plants will wither an die during June. The adilts of both maggot ' species are flies, slightly smaller than house flies, but with the same -general- appearance. — Both species lay eggs on the soil near the emerging .or newly set - plant. On hatching, the larvae or maggots work into the root. To ---control :tithe: larvae, - -the- ; insecticide used must be applied at planting time: Diazinon gives , good control of -both species, le ethion ' inay . be used to cora,-Q_nion maggot_These chemicals are; -available under, various trade names, r . Nonchem-icat control methods' can also be used, says Professor ` Goble -With -onions, planting at ten day intervals may allow sbmeof- the plantings to emerge before 4? maggot flies lay , their eggs.' Cabbage and .cauliflower' can be protected by putting out the p1arts in June or, later. However, 4this ' may not work in nothern Q,,ntario where root maggots seem more difficult to control. Planting radishes every 7 to 10 days may produce some plantings that .are satisfactory-. Pendulum•Player-s opening night at the former Huron County Jail on Tuesday evening was a smashing success as the performance went+• n• on despite continual riin. Much of the credit -for this Success goes to ti, • a• the audience who stuck it out regardless of the soggy condition. The plays was well were excellent. A REVIEW BY RON SHAW Pendulum PI Ayers opened their summer season on Tuesday evening to a large crowd as they staged •'Appollo.;of Bellac" and. ironically enough, scenes' from :'The•Rainmaker". Rain poured down" th'roughdUt .the entire pr.ociuction soaking -performers and spectators• alike but the players carried on with f1Ging colors despite adverse conditions and the opening night audience stuck it out giving the group'(and their performance) the support it truly earned and' deserved. • .The former Huron County Jail courtvard.•where.the theatre group will be staging their productions over the next six ,weeks, formed h near" perfect setting for the plays. The.old stdne wali•s,hol•d, a character which would add that extra,„ dimension --t - any -theatre perdrtrrm a nce -They a c-cous t icss-are excellent and in fine weather the program willdoubtless he a most enjoyable event. Even under the strained conditions brought on by poorweather the audience showed their enthusiasm' in appreciative applause. • • p •• • " In "Appollo of Bellac" Rick Fisher and Catherine Russell showed • outstanding talent in carrying a play that at times admittedly showed signs of dying,,on the spot: Or perhaps drowning would be more the term.. The scenes produced from -The Rainmaker' were nothing short rr of excellent. Greg Markspn's portrayal of the rainmaker and ,.J,-a.n.• utheriand's Lizzie could' only. be describer as a deeply human experience. with • real emotion drawing the •audience into the production. t. i X===>1k 4 1 'Catherine Russell•pleft and Rick: -Fisher, right, carried off brilliant performances in "AIIo of Bellac" on Tuesday night as the Pendulum Myers staged their opening night: Despite rain and a few bad moments on stage by other members of the calf the pair saved the show making it'.the, success it . was. The players also produced scenes from ."The Rainmaker" with outstanding'performance's being turned in by Greg Markson and Jan Sutherland:—staff photo q° Novel and imaginative staging also played a strong part in making • the .productions what they were.. Those responsible for setting design, and production management are to he highly commended, The production was played `fg invited -guests' and their added support was shown when they went home from the plays, changed into dry clothing.athen returned to make the -opening night reception as h,}g a smash as the plays themselves. Mike Qu-aintance, a visitor _to the area.:£roni Chicago, staged animscheduled;perfo-rin-a:nce-of hi s• keyhoardblues stylings during the•reception,agding greatly to the evening: If one dares to predict the future,•Tuesday evening's show might reap much longer-termed•benefits from the entertainment. The. Pendulum Players could prove to be the savior, of that historic landmark (•the jail). They, demonstrated beyond a doubt that the building Still has a useful purposeto which it is.ideally suited, "Appollo of Bellac' and scenes from "The Rainmaker" will be staged again Thursday and Sunday evening, I can only recommend. that everyone, who can possibly find time, take in the shows.- They will be -evenings well spent., , • No admission is charged to the performances but that hat rtear the door isn't one of the props.
