CORN BORER
NOT SO SERIOUS
IN MANY PLACES
But Expert Doubts If It Will Ever
Be Completely Stamped Out —
Boys Leave Farms — Figues

Per Cent. Over 16 Years of Age.
Guelph, Jan. 10 — Referring 'co
the methods nolo being employed to
combat the corn borer in Ontario as
the only salvation for the corn -
growing industry of the province,
Prof. L. Caesar, provincial entomol-
giet, vigorously defended the Corn
Borer Act in an address before the
closing session of the Ontario Agri-
cultural and Experimental Union ad.
the Ontario Agricultural College.
Prof. Caesar pointed out that at
present the corn borer is in every
county in old Ontario, and as far
west as Manitoulin Island, and es
far north as New Liskeard. Ile
maintained, however, that there is
good reason to believe that It wilt
be possible to hold it in check,
though he gave no hope of ever ex-
terminating it. He stated that all
kinds of corn are attacked, but re-
ferred to work in the United States
this last year to show that all veri-
ties are not equally infested. Golden
bantam is the worst.
Not Menace to Other Crops
"I think there is very little danger
that it will be a serious menace in
this province to other crops so long
as there is any corn left," he an-
nounced. "I may add that the fears
felt by many people that the borers
are breeding in large numbers in
weeds of various kinds are not based
on fact, Weeds are not really- a hie
problem in the control of the insect."
In defending the Corn Borer Act
he maintained that if it were not
for the act, there would he no earn
in Ex -ex, Kent and the adjoining
counties today. He pointed out that
in the first year of enforcement the
numbers of borers were reduced by
5% in most of the counties.
Ile asserted tha'c the farmers in
'seer county were so encouraged by
progress made that the corn
ago had been increased by 20
'ant, Iast year, and he enticipnt-
least another 26 percent, in -
this year.

'ted in farm surveys. A rather I
artling relselation was that there
re only 27 per cent of the farmers'
sons over 16 years of age on the
farms of Wellington County. This
he claimed, illustrated the necessity
of giving the boy sufficient interests i
on the farm. He claimed that thin

The following clipping from the

teresting tidings or lir. Caroline
Macdonald, daughter of the late Dr,
Peter MacDonald, former M .P. of
East Huron, and Mrs. MacDonald,
now of London. Dr. Macdonald is
well known to many people in Brus-
sels, who will be interes'ced to hear
of this recognition of her services:
"Lady Tilley was hostess yester-
day afternoon at a party at the Bri-
tish embassy, which was given by
the British Women's Association, of
T:a,yo, in honor of Dr. Caroline
Macdonald, whose work for dis-
charged prisoners was, on the occas-
ion. of the enthronement, again re-
cognized by the gift of a silver cup
from the Emperor. Nearly 100
guests were present at a very en-
joyable function, During the after-
noon the British ambassador read a
cablegram which he had just receiv-
ed from the Governor-General of
Canada, Lord Willingdon, conveying
the congratulations to the Canadian
Government to Miss Maedoanld, The
;present is the third occasion on
which Miss Macdonald has been
honored by the Emperor for the
work which she started, the useful-
ness of which has been warmly re -
'cognized by the judicial authorities."

In the past, scores of thousands of buyers seeking the
greatest dollar -value, have purchased Plymouth—on
the basis of simple comparison and contrast with other
cars in its price range.
At these new lower prices, the contrasts that Plymouth
)resents—in all-round economy of operation and up-
keep, combined with full-size, weatherproof hydraulic
4 -wheel brakes, modern engineering, im-
pressive power and performance—are
even more conclusive, even more empha-
tic of the Chrysler management's deter-
mination to give quality and value far
Dealer
in advance of anything else in the lowest -priced field.
This most significant reduction in Plymouth prices
is thus in keeping with Chrysler ideals, while passing
on to purchasers the benefits .:l accrue from hugely
increased production.
See the Plymouth! Drive it -- and try to match
it in quality and value. We believe you
will find these new low prices remove
Plymouth further than ever from any
other offering in the greatest motor
car market. 8U)
