Stewart, Clinton, agricultural representative for Huron County, dealt wit hthe warble fly campaign' in the County. . The address was followed by a "questions -and -answers" period, the questions being asked by Harry L. Sturdy, Auburn, past president, Hur- on Federation'of Agriculture, and re- plies being.given by Mr. Stewart.. Mr. ,Stewarts address is, as follows: "The first statement one usually hears when a discussion on Warble Fly begins is: That cattle had lumps on their backs 50 ,years ago but they orad. dict' not run g This is. quite true; the original warble fly species found in this country does its work quietly, laying its 'eggs on the cattle without dis- turbing them, but the other species approaches the animal in a more clumsy manner, making a buzzing noise and creating panic, which nt y result in broken down fences or even broken necks of the affected animals. The latter species was introduced to Ontario 25 to 30 years ago from England and Western Canada in the backs of the cattle that were import- ed. ' The effect on the cattle and the life history of these, two species of pest are so much alike that they do not need to be considered separately for the purpose of control. Now for the life history—Practical- ly all insects go through a complete life cycle; there are four stages. The egg, larvae, pupa and adult. The larvae in nearly all insects is the stage when most damage is done, it is the period of growth, and the warble fly is no exception. The eggs are laid on bright sunny days by ,the adult female fly, commencing in the spring and extending until late in the dimmer. Each,fly may lay 300 eggs, depositing them on the hairs of the animal, usually from the hoof to underline of the main part of the body The eggs hatch in from 4 to 8 days and the grub begins to burrough its way underneath the skin of the animal. The skin puncturing process may only' require about six hours. Evidence of the skin puncturing can Abe seen by anyone who cares to ex- amine the hide of an animal that is affected. This is where discomfort to the animal begins; the larvae on getting under the skin, starts migrat- ing to the throat or gullet of the animal and reach this portion of the annual's body sometimes as early as August and may be found there as late as April. Howard; Hyde,'Hensall, To Represent Dealers The regular meeting of the Retail Farm Equipment Dealers' Association was held in Seaforth on January 2, when it was decided that Howard• Hyde, Hensall, would represent the Huron and Perth Implement Dealers at 'a provincial meeting 'to be held in Toronto, January 16. It also w decided that the next meeting would be in the form of a banquet to be held in Seaforth, February 6. Legion, Women's Institute and Vic- tory Club, welcomed the personnel home.- On behalf of the Ministerial Association, Rev. H. J. Snell extended greetings. Words of welcome were also spoken by Dr. B. C. Weir and Mr. Charles E. Asquith. The Honored guests were called to the platform and each one expressed their ap- preciation 1 prociationi of the kindness shown them while overseas. Accompanists were Miss 3. Weir. Mrs. H. Snell and Mrs. R. J. Philips. Refreshments were served. Married Couples Honored Mr. and Mrs. Aubrey Toll,'Auburn; Mr. and MTs.. Lorne Snell, Goderich, and Mr. and Mrs. Chester Nicholson and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Swan, St. Helens, were guests of honor at a reception in St. Helen's hall. These couples had all been married' during the past year, and an address expressing the good wishes of the community was read by Lorne Woods and a purse of money presented to each couple. Lorne Snell, who recently returned from service overseas, was presented with a leather billfold and a war savings certificate, an address being read to him by Ronald McCrostie. Campbell—Stevens All Saints' Church, Crowborough„ England, was the scene of a wedding when Valerie, only daughter of Mrs. .Stevens, of Sussex, England, former- ly of Sydney. Australia. and the late Kenneth Barkley Campbell, elder son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Campbell, • to Auburn. Rev.Mr. Brooke, rector of the church, officiated. The bride, given in marriage by her grandfather, Mr, Bowman, chose a white satin gown fashioned on princess lines with sweetheart neck- line and long fitted sleeves. A tiara of pearls held her embroidered net veil which fell in graceful lines be- yond her train. She wore a strand of pearls with matching barpin, gifts of the bridegroom, and carried a sheaf of Talisman roses. Tho bridesmaid, Miss Shiela Page, London, England, wore coral satin in floor length with matching headdress, and carried a variegated nosegay, FO. Colin Crozier, whose home is at Crewe, Ont., a cousin of the bridegroom, at present serving in the RCAF over- seas, was invited to he best nnan, but due to unavoidable circumstances was unable to attend. The wedding music was contributed by the choir boys of the church. Following the ceremony a reception was held at the home of the bride's mother, who received the guests.

' Mr. Sturdy: If there is no other means of protection, I guess I would get away as quickly as possible. Mr. Stewart: That is exactly what the cattle, do ,and in 11 panic are not always responsible for where they go. Mr. Sturdy: Do the lumps on tho back of the animal cause any dis- comfort? Mr. Stewart: May I ask another question. Mi. Sturdy: Go ahead. Mr. Stewart: Did you ever have a boil or boils on the back of your neck? Mr. .Sturdy: Yes. Mr. Stewart: Could you describe the feeling. Mr. Sturdy: Well, I do not wish to be Job's comforter. but I cannot think of anything much worse. Do the warble lumps affect cattle that badly? Mr. Stewart. Animals cannot talk but I should think itwould be a fair comparison. You see, when the warble fly grub reaches the back it cuts a hole in the skin which permits bacteria to get in, this sets up a Bain Stewart Stresses Need To Organize' a g F K. B.

Our progamme, I believe, should embrace such projects as Con- servation and Reforestation, Crop Improvement, Live Stock Improve- ment, Marketing of Farm Products, and lastly but by no means the least, a Junior Farmers' .Organization, which will include young men and young women from our rural districts, who .are prepared to work in their respective communities, for the im- provement of that community.

I think any • of my listeners will agree that the job is not a small one and the only way that the work can be car- ried on to give, the greatest benefit to the greatest number is through organizations. "We have many of these organiza- tions already active in the County. There are the Agricultural Societies, Women's Institutes, Farm Forums, and Junior Farmers, and the one which embraces all phases of Agri- culture, 'The Federation.' This, by virtue of the name, explains itself as an organization co-ordinating the efforts of those engaged in branches of agriculture for the betterment of the industry, "Those who organized the Federa- tion in the County deserve a great deal of credit for doing a thorough lob, from school section to township. unit to the County Executive.

It certainly affects the thriftiness of the animalr' 3—Mr. Sturdy: Is the Heel Fly the only insect that makes cattle run in the fields? Mr. Stewart: No; there as also the large black fly, one often observes on horses, they sometimes have an awkward way of attacking animals and may create panic but they do not cause warble lumps. Tbey ,lay their eggs on grass or leaves in a swampy or wooded arca and cone from, these areas to get a feed of mammal blood. The only bad effect from these is when they make their first and only attack. When we are on this subject we might as well clear up the theory of those spittals on the grass, that are sometimes quite Prevalent. Thisis the egg or larvae stage of the Buffalo Tree Hopper. whieh feeds on juices of plants. When preparing to lay eggs. it spins this froth -like substance, in order to form a case for the eggs. Cattle may consume some of these while grazing but there is no econ- warble lumps. con- nection with p i .5 --Mr. Sturdy: In explaining the difference between the two species of warble formers, you stated that the Heel Fly came f rem Western Canada. Do we still have these liaz. ards in purchasing Western feeder cattle? It continues to grow and greatly increases in size during the six weeks or more that it spends underneath the skin on the animal's back. When ready to leave the back it does so when the animal stretches the opening while licking itself or making any unusual movement. The insect has then reached its final stage known as the pupa. After 28 to 80 days it emerges as the adult fly and begins the life cycle of a new generation.

There are also the agricultural organizations and County Council, in particuar the Agricultural Committee of the County Council, who lost little time in calling a meeting at the_ Agricultural office to find out what they could do to lend assistance. All these courtesies, in no small way, contribute to the morale of a newcomer and help to make hint feel that he is associating with people who are willing to co- operate and that it is up to him to do his part. I think that this spirit must, in some measure at least, be due to the good work done by the former representatives. ecWe Agricultural Representatives are variously referred to as 'White Collared farmers, experts, etc.' As far as I am concerned, and I offer my apologies to those who have heard ine use the expression before, I would prefer to choose the phil- osopher's definition of an 'expert' which sags an expert is only an or- dinary person away from hone, but I would prefer to have you think of me as an ordinary person who is interested in all phases of Agriculture and the welfare of all those people who are engaged in the business ort agriculture.

Mr. Stewart: We :have watched these pests year after year and have accepted then or taken thein for granted', but I believe if cattle owners realized how much they were losing each year through spoiled hides, untln•iftiness that they would be in favour of snaking it compulsory, and let the say in conclusion that no legislature will be effective unless it has the support of the people who are affected by it. Mr. ,Sturdy: I have heard it said that herds that were sprayed for flies regularly, did. not have warble lumps on the backs of the cattle,. Mr. Stewart: If cattle are sprayed regularly it is quite possible that al- most all the eggs would be destroyed before they hatched, but this is only practical in dairy herds and then only that portion of the herd which is brought to the stable for milking. 0 NEWS -RECORD Classified Adlets have proved their worth many times. over in getting results.
