"Be Good to Your Country"
Is Slogan of Motor League
New Campaign To Stop Vandalism—
Don't Spoil Beauty Signs Placed
On Highways
All motorisf's are urged to get be-
hind the program of the Ontario Mot-
or League to stop -vandalism, for
cleaner camps and roadsides and for
the preservation of wild plant life
in the 1926 touring season, accord-
ing to appeal broadcasted from pro-
vincial headquarters in Toronto.
"It is superfluous to say that the
Ontario Motor League is3 strongly
behind the movement for the main-
tenance and enhancement of the
beauty epotte and against ruthlese de-
struction of wild shrubs and flowers,"
said. George Hodgson, past -president
and director of the 0. M. L. He de-
clared that the conservation and
beautification campaign which had
brought such god results last year
will be extended. While tha 1Vlotor
League is taking a leading part in
the movement, many other organiza-
tions including chambers of com-
merce, boards of trade, women's
clubs, gerl guides, boy scouts led oth-
er bodies interested in outdoor recre-
ation are doing their bit,
"This work should be regarded as
one aspect of the safety program in
which the country is engaged," Mr.
Hodgson said.
Every one of the forty odd bran-
ches of the 0. M. L. is asked to
launch a campaign in its own terri-
tory. The radio will be used to pro-
mote plant conservation, road -id
cleanliness and camp sanitation. Pos-
ters and Pamphlets will be issued
emphasizing the urgency of a nat-
ional conservation policy in regard to
the outdoors, and the government
will be asked to scatter flower seeds
in certain
"13e good to your county" is the
slogan that the Motor League is co-
operating with the A.A.A. iu "carry-
ing on." Under this slogan the fol-
lowing, noticewill be carried on hun-
dreds of thousands of maps, publil
cations including camp manual, etc.;
"Don't pick too many wild flow-
ers."
',Holly, dogwood, mountain laurel
and many other plants and bowers
are being raptilly exterminated be -
caused of unlicensed and ruthless
gathering." •
"Ile good to your country and let
all enjoy it!"
"Extinguish camp fires when leav-
ing."
"Burn or bury all rubbish"
"Leave your camp fire or picnic
grounds in as good order as you
would like to finiel it."
',Observe the courtesies of the road
and keep your country looking as
lovely .as God intended it to be!"
"There are few motorists," said
Mr. Hodgson, "who would not com-
mit themselves tothe observation of
these simple rules. And yet in ac-
tual practice thousands disregard
them. This is -due to heedles.sness
rather than to wanton desire to de-
stroy. Hence we may hope to ac-
complish much through education, in
the communities where a campaign
was waged last year, fewer cars were
seen loaded with the product of the
despoiled woods or orchards."
Don't Spoil Beauty
"Nature provides us with so much
beauty that we took profusion for
granted and dealt with this profue-
ion with lavish hands. But to -any
we stand in clanger of exterminating
that which contributee so much to
the charm of the trail. Many plants
and flowers have been practically ex-
terminated.
"Of course motorists have often
vent blamed unjustly. But there is
no doubt that they have been careless
in the past and there is plenty of
room to -day for writing a new chap-
ter in the creed of a good motorist.
After all, the motorist himself is the
one who stands to lose the most from
desecration of the camp and the road
side and from the spoilation of wild
plant life. A blossom on the bush
is worth ten in the hand, for hun-
dreds will see It.
"Our observation in the past has
shown that the long distance motor
traveler is by no meane the ono who
causes the most damage; The pick -
nicker and the nomad travelling in
the small car are as a rule the worst
offenders,"
EFFICIENT ROGUING METHODS
IMPERATIVE TO THE CON.
TROL OF CERTAIN POTATO
DISEASES
The following recommendations
for roguing potato fields are made
as a result of practical tests carried
on by the Division of Botany of the
Dominion Experimental Farms.
Roguing should not be attempted
where the amount of disease in a
field exceeds five per cent and this
is partienlarly applicable ie the case
of mosaic or led roll. Any plants
showing symptoms of blaelcleg, wilt,
lenf roll, mosaic or spindle tubex
should be removed :from the field and
destroyed, not left ,between the rows,
because such a practice only leads
to further spread of these diseases,
When aphids or plant lice ere pres-
ent, which spread mosaic, leaf roll
and spinclie tuber, it is advisable
after removing an infected plant to
place it in a receptacle provided with
act lid or drawstring to prevent the
insects falling from the diseased
plants to healthy ones, thereby fur-
ther sprading the disease. A sponge
saturated with a soletion ef Blaelc-
leaf 40 (nicotine sulphate) placed In
the bottom lef the reeeptecle will en-
sure extermination of all plane lice

more difficult, for not only must me

prevent infection of healthy tubers
from other hills coming in contact
with diseased tubers at digging time
or subsequently while to storage. Re-
gnoval of all tebers in the case of
such diseases.as mosaic and leaf roll
is even more imperative as it is im-
possible to detect these diseases in
the bin.
Roguing can be most satisfactorily
done on a dull day or when the sun
is partially obscured by clouds. The
operator will clo well to shede the
Plants from the sun with his body
as this will very materially aseist in
readier detection of such diseases as
mosaic. When riding cultivators
are used an excellent opportunity is
afforded to scrutinize and detect -die-
°nee while missing between the rows,
When the growth becomes dense, diss
eased plants ate often sWanmed be-
tween adjacent healthy ones, hence
it is a good praCtice to part the tops
that none May be overlooked.

(2) Will the tractor reduce the

creased acreage, or 'the same acreage

(4) Will the tractor reduce the
cost of hired belt work?
(5) Will the tractor do, some cus-
tom work in the neighborhood at a
profit?
Generally there are other ques-
tions, that should be considered that
are specific for each individual Sarni,
before purchtute Is decided on.
Some fanners express themselves
as follows: "I knotv.it is costing me
more to farm with a tractor, than if
horses were used, but since the trac-
tor enables me to get a lot of work
done in a shorter time, so much so
that I am willing to pay the increased
cost."
Oost of Traction Operation.
The variation in the cost of oper-
ating tractors is as wide as the de-
gree of efficiency In various operators
and their tractors. Expressed in dol-
lars and cents, for a tractor pulling
a two bottom plough, it has been
Sound to vary from 70 cents to over
four dollars per hour. The skill and
efficiency of the operator Is the im-
portant factor in keeping down costs.
Oil and Water Very Necessary. ,
The careful operator, who goes over
his machine with his eyes open, mak-
ing adjustments where needed, sup-
plyiug oil or proper grade, and mak-
ing timely repairs, will get more done
and have a very sruall repair bill for
the year. Another man, using the
same type Of machine who never
bothers to make adjustments or min-
or repairs, or who does not pay pro-
pel. attention to oil and water, will
usnally run up a repair bill equal to
half the original cost or the tractor
each season.
Failure to remove carbon, grind
valves, adjust gasoline feed, keep up
oil and grease supply to bearnigs,
keep nuts tight and renew piston
rings, will reduce eftlelency and
consume excess fuel and oil. le'eep

ciency as many hours as can be done

ciency in operating costs as does the
tractor that is useel one hundred and
aft/ days each year, Interest, taxes,
insurance, shriller are the same no
matter how many days the tractor Is
used and these charges go to make
this difference. The average hourly
cost of tractor operation on well-man-
aged farms is given as 110 cents to
one dollar per hour for tractors pull-
ing two ploughs or equal work. This
includes depreciation, supplies, labor,
repairs, shelter, and insurance, where

HOW TO INTRODUCE QUEENS
Before introducing a new queen to
a colony of bees it is of the utmost
importance that the colony contains
/10 queen or queen -cells of its 03001,
otherwise the new queen will be kill-
ed. If .the colony to be re -queened
already has a queen of its own and
has. made no prepartions for ewarm-
ing, remove the old queen and leave
the colony queenless for about twelve
hours and then introduce the now
queen. If, however, the colony has
made preparations for swarming, re-
move the queen, destroy all queen
cells and knee queenless for ten
days. On the tenth day agaiu de-
stroy all queen -cells and introduce
the new queen.. Should the colony

QUICK LIGHT CHANGES
Dimming of headlights when
meeting a car at night is believed to
be of doubtful utility, for when the
eye is used to bright lights, and they ,
are suddenly dimmed, it takes from
three to five seconds for the eye to
becoine accustomed to the faint il-
lumination. While this readjustment
of the sensitive lining of the eye is
taking place, the ear going 30 miles
an hour will travel from 132 to 220
feet while the driver is practically
blind.
THE TOE -IN OF TIRES
Wheels on which the tires toe -in
excessively have the effect of rub-
bing the the, tread against the road,
greatly reducing its life. The check-

ehould be made by motorists at least
once a year. When the toe -in does
not agree with manufacturer's re-
commendations, it may be easily ad-
justed by adjusting the tie rod or
distance rod. Proper attention to
these conditions will result in longer
and more satisfactory tire wear,

THE HEART OF THE. CAR
Storage batteries are liko lincran
beings in that they must have "fond"
and "drink" regularly or they will
w•eaken and their lives be :shortened.
By "food" is meant the eurrent
which must be put back by the gen-
erator. Regular inspection will show
the condition of the battery. If it
is undercharged, the specific1 gravity
of the electrolyte will be 1,250 or
less; if it is overcharged; it will be
over 1,300, and the battery will show
signs of excessive heat and spraying.
The most common and ruinoue abuee
of the battery is to let it go "dry."
The electrolyte solution must aleveye
completely cover the plates in all
cells.
