ONTARIO ON JULY lst, 1944, the "Hours of Work and Vacations -With Pay. Act. 1944" becomes effective is the Province of Ontario. While it is the purpose of this Act to provide improved ' conditions for all workers employed in industry in this Province, it will be obvious that the provisions of the Act cannot be permitted, at this time, to interfere with the all-out capacity effort required in producing material' for war. The Industry and Labour Board, which will administer the Act, therefore, considers, in view of the present acute manpower shortage and the vita demands of war, that the application of the Act should be postponed ,arid working conditions in force at present should not be arbitrarily changed. The Board therefore authorizes the continuance of Exist- ing Working Hours in all industries operating on priority War Material in the Province of Ontario. Industries engaged in Agriculture,.` Horticulture, Fishing and the Produc- tion of Foods and Farm Products; Dairying Industries including cheese and butter; Firms engaged in the building and upkeep of roads, con- struction, onstruction, transportation, textiles and other undertakings which can be considered essential to the full maintenance of the war effort, shall be considered in the category of War Industries insofar as their present working hours are concerned. Preparation of the groundwork for the operation and application of the Act will go forward immediately but the Industry and Labour Board wishes ft to be understood that these preparations will not be permitted to inter- fere in any way with existing working conditions in 'vital industry as long as the present crisis exists. - - NON.

It has been estimated thatin this country alone insects use up and destroy every year the equivalent of the labor of one million men. Only by constantly fighting the battle against insects with insecti- cide sprays and dusts are we able to come off even partially victori- ous against our small enemies. What About Dusts to Control Insects? When lead arsenate is put into water and then sprayed on vepe- tables, the water is the carrier which permits the lead arsenate to be sprayed over the leaves evenly. The water then evaporates, leav- ing the poison behind it so that the insect will get a mouthful no matter where he settles to eat a meal off the plant. Water is a good carrier while/spraying an np right growing plant like a potato or a tomato vine, or even such plants as beans, especially if they are the climbing variety which have been carefully put up on poles, so that you can; -get at them; but real difficulties develop when an insect attack comes on low growing plants. An attack of melon aphid can be a real problem for the gardener, escially, if he has a large patch. ;Be11will be only too happy to turn to a dusting pro- gram. How Do I Make Dust For My Garden? Nicotine dust dart be made easily, even by an inexperienced "hand° it the underlying principle is understood. Most insects found it the Victory Garden, cat be,00n- trallcd with such a dust if lead or calcium arsenate it dry form Is mixed with it, All that is required for an offective dust is fe inter- aerate ne r - a small namounthof BlankhLeaf d 40, being careful to mix it in an air- tight container so that no nicotine fumes are lost. Needless to say, the mixing job must be thorough, - How Strong Should the Dust Be? For a good all around dust the amount of Black Leaf 40 should be 5% of the weight of the lime. If only a little dust is needed, 10 pounds of lime may be put in a tin - can with a tight cover and 8 ounces of Black Leaf 40 added. A dozen' small stones the size of golf' balls should also be thrown in and the whole turned end over end for fif teen minutes. A BAKING POWDER CAN WITH HOLES PUNCHED IN THE EOTTOM MAKES A 000D,DUSTER FOR THE SMALL GARDENER t 7' (.0-,,,,,,$f€) How Do I Apply Dust? A dusting gun is of course the best way to distribute the dust but if such is not available • good re- sults can be obtained by means of a baking powder can with holes punched in the bottom. The dust is shaken out on the plants with care taken to cover the under side as well as top of the leaves. Nicotine dust should be applied •on warm days when the fumes are mot ef- fectively released. The air should be still—if the wind is blowing the fumes are blown away. Dust should be applied promptly when insects are first seen and before infesta- tion becomes heavy. Can I Buy Dust Ready -Made? In many localities packages of dust are put up commercially by local concerns which mix the lime and Black Leaf 40 and offer it fresh to the trade. a a BELL & BENSON BRUSSELS, ONTARIO Barristers., Solicitors, Notaries Public Elmer D: Bell, - 13.A.
