Hence it is most impenitent to be prepared for their attack at tiheevery fleet of t:he season. sBran bait loos given the most effective control for many years, and is made up with the fol- lowing ingerdients — Bran 20 ,pounds; molasses, one quart; Paris green, onelnailf pound, and water, about two and a half gallons, In making the bait, the dry in- gredienbs dhould first be thoroughly mixed. The rotes,es. Is then stir- red luto the water and added to the bran and Paris green, In mixing tthe bait, only enough water should be added to make the material the consistency of vett sawdust. It must not be nacre sloppy but should be in the condition of crumbling in the hands and slipping easily through tete fingers, Land that was •heavily infested the year before should be treated prior to the plants being set out. Mist is done by broadcasting the bait at the rate of 15-20 pounds per acre tt few nights before trans- planting, One applicetion should be sufficient but, if the cutworms are numerous, a second :Mould be made ,two or three days after the first. Tile bait iihould always be spread in the evening just before dusk, and, if psosible, a w•a tm still nigiht should be chosen for the work, 1f tlhe attack by cutworms is un- expected tend the plants are already in the field; the bait eatotki be all• plied around •bhe base of each plant, using about on -half teavpoou in well case. Should one Milk -at -10u not kill all the ctlttvotvtle, a second treatment should he made two or three nights later. Grop Summary Rep'ortsss from eoreeapondetit8 in- dicate that there will be an increas- ed acreage scorn ,this. spring to oats, barley mid potatoes, and a smell decrease in the acreage of spring wheat, flaxseed and mixed paths. A consideratte acreage of sod wee plowed up last fall in 'Western Ontario as, a retina of the rise in grain prices and Unsat's- faotory returns front cattlaraleing three or fear years The estlntatect acreage of oats for 1937 is placed at 2,939,700 acres, an Utereaee of 94,000 acres over 1930 and the lutentled acreage of barley is placed at 1371,100 acres as against 5111,200 acres in the preceding year. If the weather had been favourable for early seeding of spring wheat, it is likely that the acreage of that crop would have been expanded in order to take adCanstege of present wbeat prices, tut owing to the Jatenees of sowing, it is be- lieved that the acreage wilt show a slight decrease, being estimated et 95,900 acres. as compared with 98,- 000 acres in 1936, Mixed grins acreage is. expected to be about the same as last year and flaxseed about four per cent, less, The re• °eat decline In potato prices has em- phasized the difficulty of finding markets for a normal yield of pota- toes from an Increased acreage. The area to be planted to potatoes is now estimated at 149,000 acres as compared with; 140,000 acres MO' 1935, The demand for seed grain was not as great as expected. Con- siderable quantities• of seed grain were carried over from ,the 1935 crop and many farmers cleaned their 1936 gain, even. though it was of somewhat inferior quality, The flow of -maple sap teas below nonmsal again this spring and farm- ers received from $1,50 to $2.00 per gallon, or about the same as last year, when production was also light. The sugar content was par- ticularly high this year.

On their Melt lengthy home ,stand Ont. which terminated on May 25th, the Maple Leafs, advanced into second 'place in the International League standing by sweeping the final three -game series from the Roches- ter Red Wings. Manager Howley has made litt•Gie or no change in the team since the opening .game at Baltimore on April 23rd, Not until May' 23rd at Buffalo did he change the original batting order from the opening game. The Leafs ,have proved deilnitely that their seven- ., game winning streak at start was no flash in the pan, and they Have sold themselves thoroughly to Tor- onto fans, It was expected that the Leafs would needsome bolstering in the pitching department and that a more experienced first baseman and a shortstop would have to be secur- ed. But pitchers, have been coming through with some outstanding per- formance and first 'baseman Jim Walsh, the 22 -year-old husky from San Jose, California, 'and tittle Joe Gantenbein, the San Francisco gshortatop, have more than made good at their positions, Waist has developed into a home run hitter who is feared by every opposing pitcher in the League and he bids fare to be one of the greatest rook - les who ever wore a Toronto unI- form, ,Gantenbein, who had never played shortstop in professional baseball until two days sbefore the Leafs opened at Baltimore, has im- proved with every game and he is a great favourite with Toronto fans. Joe Mulligan, Mike Meola, John Berly, Jimmy Pattison and Babe Davis have been supplying the feature pitching. Mulligan won his fist three starts and shares with Pattison the distinction of be- ing the only Toronto pitcher to turn In a victory against the heavy hitting Newark team which is prob- ably one of the strongest drat ever played in the Intermational League. Mulligan, held the Bears to two Hits and beat then! 4 to 2. Pattison gained a 3-2 decision over them in Newark. Meola has turned in the only two shut -outs. the Toronto team scored in its. nest home stand. He blanked Syracuse and Roehester, Beely beat Buffalo in a sensational 154nnjng game. He relieved Davis with bile more tied in the eigth in- ninlg and held tet Bisons to one hit over the balance of the route.

M, BROTHERS Here and There Opening three weeks earlier this year with a 15 -inch snow fall on December 2, the ski-ing season in Quebec province was off to a flying start with special Canadian Pacific trains as well as regulars crowded with enthusiasts on the first week -end thereafter from Montreal ,to the Laurentians. The Empress of Britain will start the winter cruise season from New York December 29 on a nine -day voyage to the West In- dies and Cuba- It will carry its 'own night club of Broadway en- tertainers and a smart dance band. The Empress of Australia, between January 7 and March 26 will make six cruises of eight, nine, ten, 16 sad 18 day duration to the West Indies, all from New Xork, Gt of a visit home for Christ - teas and New Year was the un- usual present suggested for the year end by G. E. Carter, general passenger agent, Canadian Pacific Railway, Montreal, as he explain- ed the company's pre -paid ticket plan for sending transportation to out-of-town relatives and friends. Arrangement of details of such visits is extremely simple, Mr. Carter said, and tickets cost no more despite use of telegraph In case of emergency and the guar- antee that the tickets will reach the right person. This service is not confined to Christmas and Now Year but is partioularly pa pular at this season.
