Although the European ,corn borer
was not so abundant in Eastern
Canada in 1942 as it was in 1941,
damage to sweet corn was, however
fairly, heavy in many sections of
Ontario. This • crop is , practically all
harvested now, but the borers are
still 'to be found in . the standing
stalks and in the unpulled ears.
Some of the borers will remain in
tilt stalks until next spring but many
will migrate to weeds and other
refuse about the garden or to un-
infected corn tocontinue their work
of destruction. Before this takes
place, it would be sound practice to
destroy the old sweet corn remnants,
including stalks, ears and roots, says
Alan G. Dustan, in charge of Veget-
able Investigations, Dominion De-
partment of Agriculture, Ottawa.
This could be done in various ways
but in some of the drier districts.
one of the best ways Would be, to
feed them to the stock in the pastur-
es. The parts not eaten should
later be gathered up and burned.
Where supplementary feeding is not
necessary, the plants, --..including , the
roots,. should be piled in one corner
of the field and burned. or: destroyed
by- burying them deeply in the soil
or in the manure pile where they
would serve as humus. Cobs 'saved
for geed should be carefully examined
for the presence of borers and infest-
ed ones discarded, or the insects
,destroyed. In cases where the borer
is working inside the cob, it can
usually be killed by forcing, •a stout
wiz'e into the'tunnel and puncturing
the insect. This, of 'course would
only be practical where a% few cobs
were being saved' or where the seed
was particularly valuable. It should
be born in mind, however, that the
European corn borer is able to pass
the winter successfully in• the ears
and for• this reason these should be
looked upon as a potential menace.
Clearing up the fields now will
save work later 0n• and will prevent
the movement of many borers from
the old sweet corn• stalks to other
fpod plants and hibernating quarters
for the winter from which they will
be ready to emerge in the spring to
carry on their work of destruction.

The first curled leaves of Autumn
Are browing on the grass;
Across my tangled garden
The longer shadows, pass:
The longer, rapid shadows
,That blot the brave sunlight,
The longer, chilly shadows
That bring the longer night,
The ebadows all about the year,
They hide in with things past,
And all the golden light of it '
They darken,out at last,
And all that's left is memory •
Of precious hours gone by;
Like leaves that drift down one by
one
Our numbered minutes die.
How many years will I see end,
How many watch begin?
For every passing Autumn Time
Brings one more Harvest in!

PICTURING PICNICS
An apple for the teacher? Perhaps—but in any event a grand shot of a

of picture.
news photographer might if he
were out on a feature assignment.
Start with a shot showing the folks r•
putting the lunch basket into the
car. If a stop is made on the way to
the picnic to buy more provisions
shoot that. And be sure to get a gen-
eral view of the scene, so that when
other people see your pictures they `.
will have an idea of the locale.
After• that, of course, you can pho-
tographically -follow whatever hap-
pens. Try to' catch the folks infor-
mally—as in our illustration—while
they're preparing the• meal, eating,
playing games, or even Just- sitting
around talking. Don't encourage peo-
ple to look at the camera—unless
you particularly want such a shot.
Tell them to look at what -they are
doing, or have them look at each
other, and you'll get thebest results.
Finally, take lots of snapshots.
Every shot may not turn out as you,
expected, but that way you'll be;
certain toget many good ones.

MO SIMMER is complete with-
' -`1 out its share of picnics, and a
picnic isn't a real success without
• some snapshots. So today let's see
how we can make better snapshots
to highlight those occasions.
Suppose we take "action,"–that
is -people doing things --as' the
keynote of our project. Action pic-
tures pack three times the punch,
and are always far more interest-
ing than the old-fashioned type of
"still" picture in whlieh everyone
stood smiling at the camera,
if yon concentrate on action, you
eau, for instance, get a picture of
dad giving an exhibition of the
"boarding house reach" as he
stretches for another ,sandwich.
You might, in another case, catch
the youngest member of the family
peering cautiously from behind a
tree to $ee if the coast is clear as
he plays "}tide-and-sebl[."
To make a completely rounded
story of Sour photographic efforts,
approach t`ae subject just as a good
