Controlling Slugs Garden slugs are always most abundant in wet seasons or in moist situations. They emerge at night, ]tiding during the day be' neath the soil, and they feed chiefly on the under -surfaces of the leave; of beans, lettuce, cabbage, enull- lh wer and such like plants.

Lrke all other pests, ti.ese animals can be more easily controlled if remed- ial measures are applied when they are small and few in number. Ac' cordingly, the. amateur gardener and the commercial growers whose crops are being attacked should gine the matter immediate attention. In Eastern Canada, the slugs are controlled by dusting the in- fested plants with hydrated lime in the evening after the sun has gone down and the feeding corn - mowed.

What's Wrong In Western Ontario Everyone who has travelled at all knows full well that one must go far afield to find a large stretoh of coun- try that evert compares with West- ern Ontario for agricultural pur- poses. The land, for the most part, is not so rolling that it is worked en. economically; the soil is as fel tile as will be found in any like area; marketing connections are good; it is well built on and well fenced. In spite of everything farm property le Western Ontario is not worth as much as it was twenty-five years ago. The farmers are appareatly no better off financially than trey are in districts where the natural advantages do not compare with those in Western Ontalro, Ther' - is something wrong. Honorable J. G. Gardiner, Federal Minister of Agriculture, referred to this situation when addressing the 0, A. C. He told or overhearing a conversatiin concerning 100 acres of land for which the owner wanted 5225 a year rent, and the prospect- ive lessee was willing to pay only 5100, but eventually came up to 5125. 15 100 acres of land Is worth only $100 per year in Canada's best agricultural section, then sometlt]nn Is very much wrong, the .Minister de- clared, Older menthers of the community ]snow well enough that the goad farm buildings all over 'Western Ontario were put there prior to tl,- wer, Here andthere a new ro,,1 has been pat on, plenty of gara:;cs have been built and quite a tea: chicken 'rouses have been erected. In many cases the homes and out- buildings have net had a touch of paint In the last 20 years and store - times abandoned, and erstweiie ea.rms aro now grazing land. This problem is worthy of a rho,• ough investigation. One would think that other dielricts would sink in despair long before Western On- tario would sow the backward tend- enoles so noticeable to those wilt) knew the Province well in former years, But other districts have nut given up, Some less blessed by nature have even advanced, ii Perhaps a genuine outsider mulct nut his finger tin the feeble at 01(10. 1111 Anyway the problem• is there and malls ft a solation. -Farmer's Adam. nate, Speeder is Sentenced to Hear 13 Sermons Georgia State Bacteriologist Warns Chronic Pyerrhaa_ May Rosuit DH TJIOO'p — Kissing may be quite tlae thins to some persons het tate time -Manned 011x10111. is Just all iP,' l sallilary Malt 1)1e114158 to 1)1 'Mervin 111.
