H, Wood Chairman of the Executive Committee, speaking on the subject says: • "Copies of the different daily and weekly newspapers from various parts of Ontario which have . come to our notice indicate that the work- ers, practically without ex- ception, have been backed up in their campaign by the most splel;,did newspaper support Which any campaign has -aver en- joyed.

(Experimental Farms Note.) Thousands of loos are injured in Canada .every year.'-4sy mice, and i11 the newer districts a large number by rabbits also. All this could be pre; vented if the farmer or fruit grower would use the information available and protect his trees from mica. Some 'oars there fs less injury than others, and this fact leads to carelessness, and when a bad year come the trees are 'unprotected. While . the depredations from mice and rabbits - in winter vary from one year to another, depending on the scarcity or abundance of food, the number of mice which are in the Vic- inity, and the character of the winter, the injury is .always greatest when the orchard is in sod, and when there is rubbish lying about; hence the latter should be removed when the winter "`gets ill, As micemay be expected in greater or less numbers every winter, young trees should be regularly protected against their ray- -ages. ay-ages. Mice usually begin working 01). the ground under the snow, find when they conte to a tree they will begin to gnaw.it if it is not protected. A small mound of soil from eight to twelve inches -in height raised about the base of the tree will often prevent their injuring the tree, and even snow tramped about the tree has been quite effective, but the cheapest and surest -practice is to wrap the tree with or- dinary building paper, the price of which is small. Tar paper is also ef- fectual, bat trees have been injured by using it, and it is well to guard against this when building paper will do as well. After the paper 15 wrap- ped around the tree and tied, 'a little earth should be put about the lower end to prevent the mise from begin- ing to work there, as, if they get 'a start, the paper will not stand in their way. It may be stated, how- ever, that among several thousand young trees which have been wrapped with building paper for years at the Experimental Farm, Ottawa there have been practically no instances where the mice have gnawed through the paper to get at the tree. The use of u wire protector, or one macre of tin or galvanized, iron, is economi- cal in the end, as they are durable, There are a number of washes and poisons recommended for the protec- tion of fruit trees and the destruction of time pales and rabbits, but none of these is very mittens:tom as, if the mice or rabbits are numerous, the poison has not sufficient effect upon thein to prevent injury altogether," The following method of poisoning bas been found fairly successful for mice, but rabbits are very difficult to deal with, Matte a mixture of one part, by weight, of arsenic with three parts of corn meal, Nihil two pieces of 'hoard, each six feet long and six in- cher wide, together so as to make a trough, Invert this near the trees to he protected and place about a tablespoonful of the poison on a shingle, and -put it near the middle of the inn, renewing the poisonas often as is neeesary.
