N` 'i dory Ford Garage Brussels TO REGULATE CATTLE SHOWN AT WESTERN Accredited Animals Only Will be Allowed on Exhibition, is New Ruling. Notice has been received from the Western Ontario Fair Board which will be of particular interest to cattle breeders in view of the recent con- troversy over the restricted area plan for the eradication of bovine tuberculosis. It reads as follows: "Advance notice. In 1929 there will be admitted to this exhibition only beef cattle from herds fully ac- credited or under the process of ac- creditation or animals that have passed a tuberculin test conducted by a qualified government veterinarian within 60 days prior to the Western Fair." "In 1924 there will be admitted to this exhibition only dairy cattle from asagnammasswera herds fully accredited or under' the process of accreditation or animals that have passed a tunerculin test conducted by a qualified government veterinarian within 60 days prior to the Western Fair." Similar action, it is understood, is being taken by most of the other large fairs in the Dominion with a I view to preventing any possible spread of the disease among animals shown and housed at the yearly ex- hibitions. 0 PINK GOWN 1 Shell pink has a renaissance in popularity for evening gowns.

Ernest Lapointe who in the House strongly denounced the pro- posed establishment of a Divorce Court in Ontario. IMPORTANCE O S° OR 'S IN SPRING The amount of surplus honey that a colony of bees can store depends largely upon the strength of its field force at the commencement of the main honey flow. The greater the number of bees available for field work when nectar is available the greater will be the harvest. • The bees that are to gather the honey crop must be reared during the spring and early summer ,therefore, the object of the beekeeper during this period must be to provide condi- tions whereby his colonies may pro- duce the largest number of bees possible. In addition to having good queens, proper protection and suffi- cient room for brood production, s each colony rnust have an abundant a- supply of food. It has been estimat- ed that one comb of stores is requir- cu to produce one comb of brood and it requires approximately seven- teen combs of brood to produce a farce of 100,000 bees, which repre- sont a real strong colony. It is quite apparent then that food is en hnportant factor during the spring brood -rearing period, Early flowers An evening cape of gorgeous sable strikes a new note by having its smoothly fitting shoulders run to a collarless neckline. ren-c-reLm2..,,.;,vuri.:.:;<..mcrar-v:martrun>r,arr..r•..a ryzer ss.>.,s m.,a=tea THE ).\EN C i r 1 D t p`1L U f„g„ r Y 1 Q'v , 1 ,11T OBody stands for modern styling, safe,The substantial construction . . lasting beauty, and a score of important contributions to your comfort. .,e \ Compare the "Bigger and Bet- \ `«.•;se ( ' a gals ter" Chevrolet Chassis with any : °` other car'in the low -price field.

St. Andrew's W. M. S. Hears Splendid Address From D. K. Perrie A rare privilege anti a great joy sante to Rev, Dr, Petrie, of St. And- rew's Presbyterian Church, Wing - hew, on Sunday evening, Apt. 22nd, when he occupied the family pew and heard his only son, D. K, Petrie, de- liver 0 message from the pulpit the father has filled with rare ability, for 84 years. It was the occaeion of the ritual Thunk -offering of the W. M. S Mr. Psrrie's address dealt largely with his work in the Peace River District, last year. Pre•facing his re- marks with a abort geographical sketch, he took the congregation on an imaginary trip North from Ldmen. ton for some 200 miles, on a train of some 12 coaches, fully two-thirds of the travellers being either Swedes or Germane from the United States, or from Central Europe and only a sprinkling of °anathema or British born. Peace River District contains approximately ten million acres, the more fertile part being in Northern British Columbia and h as two 100111 settlements of about 200 Isquare miles each, hut widely apart. Of course, there are email scattered groups of eight or ten families comp iratively close together, but for the most part, the land is an absolute wild -einem 24x. Perrie's work was to establish Sabbath Schools and make a survey of the district for future use. In nearly every case, he found an anxious de- sire for Sabbath Schools, that the rhilclren may learn the old Bible ator- i.s and truths, but the older people were quite indifferent as to the; need of nhutch service. In one centre, he sought the co-operation of the school teveher to carry on the Sabbath School, hut her five days a week as- p socialion with theta seemed sufficient. In then' isolation, the children knew - none of the familiar hymns, nothing d of the simple Bible stories all children learn in their earlier days Mr. Pee- lle sang = setae of these hymns and Y told the ia etnr7 ' Noah t i1 r iw n others, and d efollowing 1.t day,the teacher 1 lhtdthe children c fell uueaY the stories. Mr. Perris read the story, and it revealed an ignntance awful to enntetnplate in a little one, not 1.0 pay anything of a girl of 13 years. Children appreciate the literature and illustrated cards furnished by Central office -the only hit of church literature er religious t eading they had.

This FOREST .BEST CONTROL 'Set a thief to catch a thief' is the method being adopted in some in stances for the protection of forests from the onslaughts made by insect posts. This is one of the great works being conducted by the Entomolo- gical Drench of the Department of A,griculturo. 'Swan years ago the larch sawfly ctripied the leaves from tamaracks and larches in Eastern Canada; This was repeated for three or four years, and eventually the larches over mil- lions of acres and practically over the whole of Eastern Canada were almost wiped out. The sawfly has since spread he Prairie Provin- ces. In 1912 the late Dr. Hewitt im- ported from England a parasite of the larch sawfly. Some of these have been used in Manitoba and last year the sawfly cocoons collected showed parasitism to the extent of 88 per cent. In 15 years the parasite has become thoroughly acclimatized and established. This parasite known amongst en- tomologists as Mosoleuts tenthredinis Merl., is extremely active in search of its host. It moves rapidly among the branches of the larches and the second it sees the larvae of the saw - fly it darts in and deposits an egg. Larvae and cocoons collected in Manitoba are now being sent to the east, for the purpose of introducing the parasite that has been in dom- inant factor in checking the larch sawfly in the Prairie z'rovhaees, The Dominion Entomologist states that the introduction of these parasites offers the chief hope of a permanent relief from this injurious pest.
