The whitish .webs ,ton- struoted by the Insects are only too oommonly seen on negleoted fruit trees, .ated on roadside .trees, especially wild cheeries, The caterpillars may he' readily 'killed by spraying infested trees with lead arsenate 3 pounds in 40 gallons, or by destroying the tents by hand when. the caterpillars are in- side them, which is ,usually on cloudy days and early in the morning. Burn- ing the neSts with it torch is very ef- fective, but care must be taken not to burn the tree. --- Grain Feed the Lamb ' IF rapid gains are wanted in lambs it is generally found that milk or pas- ture which are the mainstays in the :feeding line ere not enough, but, that before and after going on pasture box feeding in it creep is an a,clvantage, Oats, :bran, corn, oil cake, molasses all may be used as lamb feed, and it is surprising the amount that a :bundle of lambs will take. With early :lambs it is particularly important that they :be marketed in, time to catch the top prices, ,and even .with lambs that are carried through to the fall it is more eoonomical to hold .ehe lamb flesh by a little extra grain than to put on the flesh in the fall. Quite it few sheep men arrange a oomer in the pasture where the lambs ,can get .at a 'box kept supplied with grain. Fertilizer Formulas Brands of commercial fertilizer in Canada are expressed :by formulas such as 08-i110 and 6404. In each case the :figures denote M the order given the guaranteed percentages of nitrogen, phosphoric acid :and potash. Thus, in a 4-82:110 mixture there would be four pounds of nitrogen, eight pounds of available phosph.oric acid, and ten pounds of water-soluble pot- ash in .every 100 .pounds of the mix- ture. In a ton naturally there would be 20 times these amounts. Preventing Farm Fires It is well known that in Canada every year losses due to farm :fires amount to an enormous sum, yet in many cases the .damage to it certain extent might have been minimize.d or prevented by simple precautionary measures, One precaution is not to put wet or uncured hay in barns, nor to put dry hay in 'barns that have leaky roofs. It is also risky to smoke in or around the .buildings. With regard to electric equipment, it is dangerous to use fuses .of too great .amperage and no article should be used in place of a fuse. Care should be taken to see that lightning rods remain prop er 1 y grounded, and .defective electrical wir- ing should be repaired promptly. The use of kerosene ,or gasolene to kindle fires or quicken. a slow fire has been responsible not only for many fires but also for many ..deaths on farms and just because there has nev- er been a ,fire on the farm, it is dang- erous to .neglect precaueions under the 'belief that the buildings will never take fire, Insurance gives an unwar- ranted sense of security but insurance canuot give compensation for all the financial losses and it cannot :replace loss of life. 'Extreme cart should al- ways be taken in handling and using gasolene. The gasolene containers should be tightly closed, painted a bright red, and labelled 'gasolene." Chimneys are one of the..most com- mon causes of .farm house ,fires, ito that ,Periodically the chimneys should be examined, tested. dor .cracks, and cleaned regtilarly. A good chemical fire extinguisher, or a pail kept in readiness for the punpose where' the water supply is handy, is a ready pre- eaution to pet out small .fires before they get beyond control. Where it is 'possible, 'however small the ,ccernmun- ity, a fire department should be or- ganized and the work not left unor- ganized to the over -willing efforts of neighb o ars.

Requirements of Department of Education ask that new courses of study be started. Manual Training and Dom- estic Science are practical subjects and will greatly benefit pupils who do not wish to continue in academic subjects. 2. Nearby towns have definitely started or completed ad- ditions for new courses. 3. Seaforth pupil attendance from neighboring Townships for 1937-38 term is 54% of total attendance. 4. Seaforth School receives payment from County in pro- portion to attendance of County pupils. Loss of County pupils means an increased cost to local taxpayers. 5. Our School also .depends on grants from Provincial Government. New addition and alterations would im- prove our grading and increase our grants. Special grants are being paid for new courses. 6. In 1936 our Provincial Grant was approximately $1212.00. A representative from Department of Educa- tion has estimated that improved grading and special grants would increase this to approxitnately $4000.00 or an increase of $2788.00. 7. Net estimated cost of addition to town is $20,000, which is proposed by 20 year, VA% Debentures. The annual cost of interest and principal would be $1407.00. Town's share on present enrolment would be approximately $800.00 or new grants should cover entire cost to 8. 8Seeaaffoorrtthh 'school has always maintained a very high stand- ing. Are we going to lose this prestige? No. Are we going to let our County pupils go elsewhere? No. Are we to give our. local students inferior training? No. Are we going to permit other towns to secure the benefit of Government financial assistance in maintaining a higher education status and not secure the same for Seaforth? No. Sign For school addition when a Member of Council and Collegiate Board call at your home. Your 'interest in progress of Seaforth requires it. •
